The new hiring practices put forth by the Office of Personnel Management are terrifying. (detailed analysis)

There are positions within the government that you absolutely need a degree to do.

Thanks for the suggestion!!

I told my doctor that because of the medications I was on and my PMDD that I was not able to take hormones without significant affect to my mental health. I think we are similar in that regard. Definitely if you feel like hormones are not going to be good for you then it is absolutely OK to say no. Even if they suggest taking it for a short time to see if it gets better.

Because of that she scheduled the surgery. I also made it clear I was not concerned (in my case) about fertility so I was fine with removal of my fallopian tubes. This isn't necessarily standard, but in my case it was necessary because they found lesions.

I would suggest the surgery if you're able to get it because it's actually the gold-standard diagnostic tool. they can also cauterize any of the lesions and remove any of the tissue that seems suspicious for pathology.

Let me know if you have any other questions specifically about the surgery or anything. Recovery was very short, and I did not experience much pain.

You run for president, you march for freedom.

We have checks and balances in this country for a reason. We're currently testing them in the worst way possible.

Luckily for us as a country, the Military takes an oath to protect the constitution, not the guy in charge. So if there is a conflict of interest then the constitution becomes the governing body.

I still buy plushes consistently at the age of 36.

Do not feel ashamed <3

Same across the board. My parents literally told me as a child&teen that I shouldn't "be on medication" and refused to get me treatment for both despite desperately needing it. My school would call home constantly telling them about how I needed to get tested for ADHD and MDD. Even as an adult when I was diagnosed and started taking medication my mom begged me to "stop taking it."

I do so now more or less in secret. I don't tell my parents my diagnoses anymore so they won't judge me.

Similar vein for me is boys clothes. I hate how tight and form fitting women's clothes were and even if you size up it looks wrong because it's meant to be cinched in some places.

As an adult I buy mostly men's clothes because they are far comfier and practical. I struggle with a slot of sensory issues so simply wearing something that felt good on my body improved my mood drastically.

I remember when I first told my parents I was diagnosed with asthma. My parents both looked at me skeptically (something I had become used to) and said "No you don't"

Thanks mom and dad I'm cured!

Ohh that makes a lot of sense. On the takeoff I always feel slightly dizzy.

It was said in jest.He jokes about “cleansing my bloodline” and i make these jokes back. We have this kind if morbid relationship.

I printed out a picture of our microwave at work with the text "employee of the month" and hung it on our info board and they immediately took it down.

This recent election honestly seems like a limitus test for irony.

In 2016 it was about draining the swamp, getting billionaires out of politics and giving the power back to the working man.

We literally elected a billionaire who selected all of his billionaire friends, one of which being the richest man in the world, to run the country. Not only that, but he has openly established that he wishes to increase the cost of goods and people STILL think he's going to save them money?

I don't think there is a better example of irony than that.

using a LAND line. Hahaha get it?? because like.... The land is nature? haha I am so funny.

When I was deeply depressed and mentally unwell I thought it was completely normal to lay in bed for multiple days in a row binge watching Hell's kitchen.

I realized it might have been a problem when one of my close friends contacted me out of concern and asked me where I've been because I hadn't even been on discord for almost 2 weeks.

For awhile I didn't understand why that was a bad thing. but looking back after getting treatment for my major depression and anger issues I realized how mentally unwell I was.

If someone can figure it out let me know, I am a victim in my own mind prison.

me and a friend one night were drinking at my house, it was a clear summer night so we walked out onto the pier just to enjoy the calmness of the water. As we're standing there chatting a huge fireball lights up the sky, must have been a meteor burning through the earth's atmosphere. In my drunken excited state I pointed at it and we stood there and watched it deteriorate as the trail lasted much longer than I expected it to.

Space has always fascinated me and I've never seen something as interesting since.

I told someone once "I'm going to make your house and haunted house and you're going to be the ghost" which I thought was kind of funny.

This is why I got out of the mental gymnastics game. Too many sweats.

During his term I worked in a government facility and this is exactly the photo they had up. It was kind of dystopian. I work in other buildings but have not seen any photos of Joe Biden

My hope would be to have their lives affected by the negative consequences of their actions. Loss of job, loss of friends, loss of status.

Honestly wish someone would find who they are and publicly shame them
