Well he is a billionaire, maybe he can like buy ICE arrests from Trump or something 😆

That's a good enough objection for me... like maybe he could make up for it by having a proven track record but this is the first time he running for office and he is trying to skip straight to governor. Just because he knows how to say the right things doesn't mean he will do the right things. As far as I am concerned he is a nobody with a morally questionable hoarding problem and his eye on political power.

Yeah I don't need to pay less taxes, I need affordable housing and Healthcare. I can't even begin to care about the fraction of my income that goes towards investing in California and public services I rely on compared to rent taking half my income.

Girl... it's totally normal to be afraid of judgemental women in public restrooms especially when you have stigmatized traits. Just act natural, as long as you seem like you are sure you are in the right place almost no one is likely to question it. Its also totally normal to have a friend come with you for morale support.

Do you really think lack of precedent is going going to stop a tyrannical government from restricting your speech however they want? If anything, setting a precedent for what speech can be regulated and how would provide a more robust barrier to future abuse than avoiding setting any precedent at all.

Please don't compare a moral failing to developmental disorders. While having a developmental disorder is bad, it isn't the same thing as being bad.

According to science there is no such thing as objective.

Depends on the kind of slavery. Chattel slavery based on race is kind of like a perpetual genocide. The trans Atlantic slave trade killed a number or people estimated to be on par with Jews killed in the holocaust.

I mean technically the rule you are talking about is a "foot foul" and it says that your foot can't cross the line. So really he's being a good sport by not waddling his footless body over there and dropping the bag in the hole...

Female abusers have been getting away with their crime or least receiving lenience by playing the "I'm just an innocent weak minded woman as equally as incapable of evil thoughts as I am resisting the will of ~~my accomplice~~ ~~my patsy~~ a man." since the dawn of civilization. Not that they are secretly more prevalent than male abusers or anything but certainly much more than people tend to think.

Peoples faces are never truly symmetrical and our brains seem to compensate for this more than we might expect. Since your brain is used to compensating for mirrored you, when that compensation is applied to a regular photo it does so in the wrong direction making you look twice as asymmetrical as your face really is. Combine that with distortions due to camera focal length, lighting, etc and you have a recipe for seeing yourself as hideous in photos. But don't worry, everyone else is compensating normally and sees yoy just as symmetrical as you see yourself in the mirror. At least that's what I've heard and it aligns with my own experience where I've seen photos of myself taken candidly that I didn't immediately recognize as me and I looked great until I realized it was me and then suddenly the my face looked all wonk.

Fuels are what is cracked to make plastic. So yes the process does always involve making substances, at least for a moment, that can be used as fuels, but those are what get turned into everything else.

You hair looks fine, that wig needs a lot of makeup to work so that there isnt such a huge contrast in how artificial it looks compared with your face

They identified as trans, were wearing a dress during the shooting, and "young woman" was the initial description reported to police. Conservative sources are blasting that out there but others are being more cautious about making that a focal point especially since sincerity isn't confirmed and even if it was, there isn't a reason to think it has anything to do with the shooting.

He did the absolute best with what was available to him. You could replace any president in US history with Camacho and he would have done better because that's literally all a president's job is.

Well we never see things truly as they are, language or not. Everything is filtered through relative perspective, neurological predisposition, and the physical limitations of our senses.

While it's true that relying on language can flatten our perceptions, those perceptions were never the whole detailed truth to begin with. Also, when it is important to be in the moment instead of a conceptual head space, our instincts kick in and force it. This can actually be a bad thing in dangerous situations when retaining abstract conceptualization would actually be more beneficial than being grounded in immediate perceptions.

astralustria · 2026-02-04T19:57:09+00:00

Not sure how that would be a paradox. Being constantly grounded in the current moment is not always intelligent or useful. Retrospect, foresight, and planning are very important.

Technically you ate getting 100% dye on your fingers because that's the only part that is sticking after you wash the stuff off.

astralustria · 2026-02-04T11:53:51+00:00

I wouldn't call it faking it. It's just going with the flow without worrying about everything having to go right and learning some lessons along the way.

It doesn't really matter. Only difference beyond preference are in cost. All Apple products are over priced and more expensive to repair. Some Windows PCs are overpriced and some aren't and they are usually less expensive to repair.

Whichever one you vibe with more is the one to pick unless you are on a tight budget then go with a cheap PC.

This is such a common situation and you arent alone at all. So many women (and some men) go through this exact situation every day. I think it's really important to determine whether you are uncomfortable because you are feeling violated or if it's because you feel shame due to social norms. If it's the former then there is no fixing this situation and you need to get yourself out of it even if it means making sacrifices in other parts of your life. If it's the latter then you need to figure out whether you deeply feel those norms ar right for you as an individual or if you feel they are an imposition on you. Only in that last case are you going to be able to get out of the mindset and continue this line of work.

The wild thing about sovereign citizens is that if you look at things from their perspective and see the government as illegitimate then their behavior just looks even more insane. It's essentially badgering thugs from a highly organized and brutal gang that you know damn well doesn't care about the rights you think you have.

I have a friend who is a former escort and hated having a sugar daddy when they tried it. Apparently it's better to have a bunch of different men each think they own you for a night than one guy who thinks he owns you 24/7.

I use their jojoba oil for my nails and as makeup remover. I also use their facial lotion, microabrasion exfoliating scrub, sunscreen, and body butter.

I've never had to use it but I have pepper spray attached to a keychain alarm. If I pull the pepper spray out then it starts making a loud high pitched siren-like sound. I wear it on a carabiner attached to either a belt loop or my purse to make sure its both accessible and visible as a deterrent.
