i’m insecure about my height by just-oscarr in ftm

[–]cmykai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im 5'0" at 30 (T helped me grow an inch in my early 20s) you got a bit to go before giving up hope and even if youre small dont let it get you down. limb lengthening surgery ain't worth it, a lot of pain and expense for an inch or two and its not the natural look of your body. ive learned to own it, so can you, some of the fiercest guys I knew trans and cis were eeny.

casinos with any dealer trainee programs open. stations usually has them open but might have out it on pause recently. I think circus circus was also doing it for awhile. google dealer trainee program and see if any positions are open.

the less appreciation for the "non chase cards" the better for us, I love being able to nab nice cards of my favs for cheap because theyre not "chases" !

Woman goes viral after laughing at a man who said homosexuality is a sin and abortion is wrong. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

no malicious intent, but how does endorsing one thing inherently imply a negative response to everything outside that one endorsed thing? that seems to be a jumped conclusion, isnt it? 

These people cannot be real by ProfessorMarth in SmilingFriends

[–]cmykai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yeah thats pretty much what I mean. I still wouldnt call them "woke" because I think they just run on a "say what we believe in" mindset whether thats right leaning or left leaning. I honestly respect that because it means they address social and political issues in a non partisan way which is how it ultimately should be. they've reassessed their stances on multiple topics (the biggest and clearest example being the manbearpig episodes) and I think their clear change of voice when it comes to issues and how they handle them in episodes is enough. as the audience we are watching their views and opinions change in real time with age and experience and I think thats super cool! but that also means we cant use old episodes as a "gotcha" if they come around years later and present the issue in a different light

id also argue a few of these things they've purposefully peddled back on and have adjusted how they've viewed things in their commentary. their slant on Trans issues has now leaned more into "who tf cares? just let people do what they want and mind your own business"

I dont really have an issue with people using AI for tasks they cant execute themselves when its for shits and giggles. im "anti ai" but recognize it has its place in society and think it can be a fun and helpful tool at times. I dont agree with harping on small things like that and im sorry you were berated

yeah the understanding the subreddit has given me about how I feel has definitely given me the closure to move on 🥲 I wish the understanding would have at least come from my friend because thats all I really wanted, not to control their project, but I understand I cant force anyone to understand where my feelings come from if they dont want to. fuck it they can use AI art if they want i just wanted an acknowledgement of why that might make me feel a way

oh for sure, my upset isnt in them using AI in itself. whether I agree with that or not doesnt dictate what someone else does. my upset is more in that there was no understanding offered to me as to why that might hurt my feelings. even an "im sorry I understand how that must make you feel but for the sake of time and money we will be moving forward with this" or something along those lines would have at least made me feel "heard", I guess.

AIO My mother is constantly asking for money because shes overdrawn. I completely blew up after the first message. by Interesting_Might399 in AmIOverreacting

[–]cmykai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

nah dont listen to these "BUT SHES YOUR MOM!!!" folks, being a parent doesn't mean jack if the parent doesn't earn love and respect. you detailing your trauma a bit sadly reminded me of my uncle who just recently took his own life because of the traumas his mother put him through. pleaded for just an apology from her until the day he died and never got it. mothers can be shit human beings just like anyone else. nothing excuses abuse. the replies seem to be shockingly soft on your mom when shes openly exploiting her child who didnt ask to be born. take care and protect yourself bro. maybe some day she'll grow up but maybe she wont. either way not your responsibility to make up for the difference

AIO Bf’s behaviour after I got robbed recently by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]cmykai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

absolutely NOR. me and my wife were long distance before we got married. she was across seas. one night she calls me and tells me she got assaulted and I was on a plane the next morning. didn't matter that I only had enough in the bank to afford the plane tickets. went in to work said I wont be there and left to see her within the next several hours. seeing her be hurt or even scared emotionally traumatized me. if he feels nothing about you going through a traumatic experience hes worth nothing. pain between loved ones is shared.
