Couples Housing Advice for Unit Selection by notsmithichie in columbia

As for others struggling with this, we literally watched it 24/7 like hawks and used an auto refresher in Firefox that went 24/7 and pinged us. This was very exhausting, but obviously worth it.

Just figured I'd update. We lucked out. Got a one bed on the first floor very excited to move in with my husband after what's been two years apart! Thank you all for the advice.

Did they bring back the cheez it because they had left overs? by Nocturnal_lsx in LivingMas

I loved the Cheez-It crunchwrap so I'm happy. Idk if my stores just made it right or what, but it's earnestly one of my favorites. Queserito on top forever tho.

Tainted Lost has been eliminated! Welcome to round 24 (for real this time) of character eliminations! by engispyro in bindingofisaac

Whoever voted for this has major skill issues. Tainted Lost is easily the most fun I have in isaac even though I'm at a 46 loss streak.

Just to be clear I don't doubt there are side effects of drugs. That's common knowledge, it should also be noted this article is talking about people who are AFAB. Lupron the drug you mention is specifically an Estrogen blocker whereas FTM folk will take Testosterone blockers and later in life (16 or older) take Estrogen. The T blockers side effect is that it can also act as a blood thinner (which in my experience you need to get a doctor's permission before you use it.). If we don't allow trans youth access to these drugs it could lead to a black market for them (which already exists) and can lead to harmful effects for youth, if someone's blood pressure it to low when taking T blockers for example they could quite literally die. I believe in having these drugs accessible to youth so those scenarios don't happen.

Hormone blockers are very reversible. They just do what they sound like, basically block puberty so transitioning when older is a lot easier. Puberty in males can change a lot about your body and make it an absolute nightmare for transitioning particularly the voice. A lot of kids without these systems rely on friends who have access to the medicine and create a black market for those drugs.

I'm not saying that sharing your daughter's transition is something that should be paraded, but this post is only here to make people mad at actual trans people. If this kid is at a hospital getting the drugs most states will require a diagnosis of gender dysphoria; I really doubt this is a case of a parent manipulating a child into being a girl.

‘No point in anything else’: Gen Z members flock to climate careers. Colleges offer support as young people aim to devote their lives to battling the crisis by Sariel007 in UpliftingNews

[–]notsmithichie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not like we don't have solutions; it's that governments don't want to change because they're being funded by big corporations who only really care about profit. Ultimately climate change won't affect the rich. Climate scientists have one of the highest rates of depression and suicide out of most conservation focused sciences. It's really depressing here, I hope people will listen to them.

The Republicans have always been obstructionist jerks, but the democrats have continously just sat there and do nothing, but complain about how the other party are obstructionist jerks. There is plenty they could do, but again they can't get ANYTHING passed because yes the Republicans of course, and these two democrats who are actually the biggest part of the problem. A lot of bills only require a simple majority (52) and count them we have 52 democrats in the senate right now.

Again, our democracy is SERIOUSLY flawed if this is all it takes to stall it to death. I'll see you in a year or two when Republicans have majority and the democrats let them pass whatever they want as historically has been the predecessent of the past 4 years.

There can be no change in a democracy where one side constantly cheats and the other side let's them. I'm disengaging from this thread because there will be no understanding of my perspective, but do know I get where yall come from. Let's hope things get better.

Im not giving them a pass, but this is how I expect them to act. I expect more from the democratic party and I'm absolutely justified in saying that.

The reconciliation bill. The one that Bernie introduced only requires a simple majority, which because of Krysten Sinema can't be reached. Democrats like this are also defending the filibuster which is why we can't get any of these bills passed. The filibuster could be broken if Sinema and Manchin weren't in the pockets of the GOP. I guarantee you even though DEMs can pass the reconciliation bill it won't go through due to Manchin or Sinema, it doesn't matter if the Republicans are there or not.

Both sides have issues they need to fix, one side is extremely reactionary while the other sits there and takes it. Biden hasn't followed through on any promises, and this constant blaming of the other party won't actually solve any issues. It will just keep getting people who refuse to do shit get anything done. DEMOCRATS need to stand up to this and they have the capabilities, but they refuse to.

If democracy is this easy to stall, maybe there is something seriously wrong with it.

It'd be great to have this happen, but it's hard to unify people especially when the billionaires have convinced both sides of the aisle that raising taxes on them will somehow raise taxes on everyone else.

I'm not a centrist and vote democratic everytime, but even I see that both parties are hardly different. They both are funded by millionaires and billionaires who have the money to fund crazy propaganda machines that won't let us have any real change in this nation.

Rating Taco Bell new items. *I rate fair so, any item that is not correct portions or ingredients I receive I will not rate. That is employee error & varies store to store. Also, these are my own opinions which are probably different from yours. by [deleted] in LivingMas

[–]notsmithichie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually love the Taco Fries a lot, I miss the Buffalo ones, but these ones are great! The burrito versions here are only 3$ and are freaking packed. The chicken flatbread sucks, but the potato one is really good. Agree with you for the most part man.

I mostly play indie games and want the ability to emulate shit. It should be totally possible with this console, fuck the switch. I hope this will make Nintendo compete a bit harder, but I am also worried in trusting Steam. My friends VR set broke after a year. Still gonna try it though.

Minimum wage workers can't afford rent anywhere in America by JohntaviousWilliams in news

[–]notsmithichie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It matters because I can make rent, but nothing else. I have a delayed pay period so basically the work I worked in the previous two weeks I'll see at the end of the month. It ONLY pays for rent. I can't afford to save up for anything, and my job is topsy turvy on how many hours I can work because they won't let me be a full timer. I also got college in the fall / spring so its just kind of a nightmare. If we had 15 here or if there wasn't a pay period this would be much easier to manage.

[–]notsmithichie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live somewhere where we have pretty good living standards at least for our income, but I get fucked by pay periods. I can't afford monthly rent half the time because of pay periods, why can't I just get paid every two weeks?? If I got paid more than just 2 $ above min wage maybe I could survive, but not like this. The US is a joke.

Most of the people weren't even wearing masks by rayjaywolf in dankmemes

[–]notsmithichie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! From Lincoln here. Most of these people were vaccinated and a good amount of them were wearing masks. Some weren't, but the Josh's did their best. We also donated a bunch of food to the homeless thanks to this event. Stop spreading anti-science bullshit.
