It worked fine for me, but the country code picker was confusing. Maybe it’s that?

I joined yesterday and there were so many pictures of Luigi. He seems to have a lot more life as a meme in china than he does here.

Not to argue with you, but wouldn’t the great lakes be good places to survive the climate crisis?

They want to replace posting with AI slop. On Facebook, they’ve noticed that even really lame and obvious AI stuff gets lots of engagement from people who don’t understand it. Since engagement is the only thing they care about, they think they can literally replace content creators and posters with AI and keep people logged on, browsing their own personal slop algorithm, forever. It’s expensive to run AI, but less expensive than paying content creators or moderating / censoring. But they haven’t quite figured out how to make this happen yet, so they’re experimenting with different modes. Maybe the AI pretends to be a person, or maybe something else.

it might seem like I’d researched them

That is literally what you are supposed to do in a job interview. You definitely should go with Toussaint if that’s true.

Wait wtf is this real? I have a trams-based email job where I’m supposed to be online at certain times, but nobody is actually warchityhat closely. I would lose my mind if I started getting messages like that.

If you’re so good at stocks, why not makes as much money as possible and donate it to do good? Prove all the critical people here wrong by donating to left wing orgs and the Palestinians and random people’s GoFundMes.

If you want to get better at Linux terminal and standard unix commands I would try https://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/

It’s an interactive tutorial which will help build basic skills. There are a million guides and walkthroughs for this, but I would try each level on your own first before you look at a guide.

The comments on that article are horrible, and I agree with you about the hypocrisy.

But honestly I don’t think posting random trans guys and being like “do you want this man in the bathroom with your daughter???” is very useful or positive. For one thing, it reinforces the idea that masculine people cannot be trusted around young girls. This idea causes just as much grief for cis men and masc lesbians as it does trans people. Also, the people writing bathroom ban laws do not know or care about trans men. They just want all of the f-slurs to disappear.

I saw an ad for like an A24 50 shades of grey kink Christmas romance. Which I guess is sort of a funny idea but also, like, why are they doing that?

I think everyone else already told you this, but never tell your employer anything about your medical history or health unless you need an accomodation or time off. There is literally no benefit to doing this. Especially when it’s something highly stigmatized, like NPD.

If they ask during a job interview, you need to be ready to lie.

People ask you your medical history during job interview? Where do you live?

(Also did you get the job?)

I hope it all goes well! I will say that changing my info with the SSA was extremely easy and took like a 5 minute appointment so hopefully it will beoke that for you too.

So I tried dating t4t poly dating for the first time, and it’s been like kind of a mess.

Basically when I told my friend about the person I was dating, he warned me saying that his ex had had a bad experience with her. I asked her about this, and she told me a different version of the sorry, and that the friend’s ex had been spreading rumors about my date for years to cover up her own abuse.

So both the person I was dating and the accuser are poly. I was contacted by other partners of both of these people to support their partner and tell me bad things abpit the other person. There is apparently a lot of history here. I have no way of knowing who did the wrong thing here or what really happened. But I do know what I feel like I am involved in some sort of feud between two polycules, lasting several years at least, which is ridiculous and I hate it.

Even without the feud, I found it very off-putting that as soon as there was a problem between the person I was dating and myself her other partners immediately stepped in. One of them wanted to set up a meeting so that we could discuss the things I had been told and they could “take action”. I had never met this other person before. She is cis, which is fine I guess but I am exclusively t4t and I really hate the idea of involving a random cis person in my relationship. Honestly it felt like I was getting emails from HR or something.

I’m not against being poly, or having an open relationship, or dating someone who is. But like it seems really weird and unfair that this person’s other partners will immediately get involved when I haven’t even met them before, and I don’t have any other partners of my own at the moment.

I’m definitely done with this whole mess, and I hope to avoid these people in the future. But I imagine there are people here who have had good experiences with this type of thing. So like how is it supposed to work? Should I have met the other partners sooner? Should I not date someone when I’m not really interested in a relationship with their other parents? Idk

I did this for a few months, and honestly did not notice a difference. I know there are specialized prog suppositories tho, maybe they would be more effective?

I don’t think it will really make much difference. Ive been on dev teams who use Jira, and even do all of the agile ceremonies, but are still super chill. If you’re management is ok now it will probably stay that way.

Also most devs seem to be illiterate and can’t write more than 3 sentences at a time. So when you write stories you can get tons of praise from everyone just be writing a couple of paragraphs that actually describe the problem.

What’s up with this guy? Is he a rightwinger mad at the libs or a leftwinger being rat fucked? Either way totally insane to just call the opposition North Korean agents.

I want to take care of other trans people and help my community become stronger. Not sure I can do anything else for the world but I can do that.

I think most people absorb a puritan idea of “removed” from society. Even like liberals, queer people, and sex nerds (people into kink) will have a version of this. For the right, it’s usually a very misogynistic idea about how female sexuality and anything gay is evil. And this is usually what makes conservatives want to quit porn, though sometimes they won’t admit it and they’ll talk about like their essence or whatever.

So like you don’t need to quite porn for the right reasons, you can just do it. But maybe spend some time thinking why you want to do it, and if it’s because of some idea of removed or shame then you should also think about it you really want to hold those ideas, because they will ultimately make you just as miserable as the porn did.

that sounds so nice! Im hoping I started a new tradition here so hopefully we can have that some day.
