I always took it in stride as being completely irrelevant information to the character he's playing online. I figure the more we try to shove it away or emphasize its importance, the more of a disservice we do to ourselves rather than just going ๐คทโโ๏ธ

There was a Facebook group a few years ago where an afab nb modmin went on a power trip speaking over trans women saying, "as an enby, and therefore trans and also a woman, I know what it's like to be a trans woman, and the correct take is:" and it was v instructive for me
@hecubian_devil
Honestly, truly, this shit is trivial for rehab professionals who don't hate queer folks. Pelvic floor therapists use literally the same equipment. And yet!!!!!!
The education gaps here are so profound

My mother stood in disbelief when I sat down at Target back in the 2010's and did a job application at one of their kiosks and it took 2+ hours despite me working very quickly

's joke comic about cacti and trans memetics has become a meme in trans Facebook groups and may be becoming A Thing in unprecedented time
@uncanny_eli
"'Writing about a thing' and 'saying a thing is good, actually' are two different things" rears its head once more
Like this is a solid premise, especially in a ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝใforum!!!
@tpwrtrmnky
I think a lot of folks are more broadly looking to feel rescued from their suffering and/or cared for and guided through the process instead of taking it all on (seemingly) themselves. Which is totally understandable and a kind of sucky, sad, and important part of adult life
@Chinchillazllla
Depending on your state, that's 100% true, but then they're just supposed to bill Medicaid, wait for the rejection notice of coverage, and then forward the bill to you. Not everyone is registered with/approved by Medicaid, though, so they've got to be registered first
@redrum_panda
In fairness, all the standard 4chan disclaimers always apply re: whether something actually happened.
Though I wouldn't doubt there's been a few of us in this situation
@Liv_Agar
Tendon slip or collateral ligament problem, maybe? If it bothers you, they make figure-8 and silver ring splints for that. However, if it's not bothering you, pretty hands is pretty hands ๐โโ๏ธ
@ThoughtSlime
I've met like ten guys who fit the "it should be illegal to not like me and be my friend" archetype since elementary school, and they are all now some form of conservative or fascist

The Onion is also the one major media outlet, satire or not, that's handled things like schizophrenia and autism with love. You can't make satire like this without paying actual attention to us:

What they are giving you is rope to hang yourself with if you're reckless with your spending, somehow this escapes the everyman on here

Importantly, this is happening very visibly on all manner of media that are difficult for them to control-- TikTok is still around, YouTube and Twitter are still here, etc -- to the point that even normie types are noticing and talking about it

@GateGeek
They're tired of being the bad guys, but... They're the bad guys. Like, I know they're structurally incapable of recognizing that fact, but wow!
@punished_cait
I'm becoming increasingly certain these people would be in group homes if they hadn't figured out how to convince other people they know how to pay their own bills
@punished_cait
This begs the question, how many of these people actually manage to get dates and then a second date once the girl finds out what they're like?
@timeforjaya
He's so happy, too! He's not saying it's authentic or anything, and yeah the naan isn't the greatest, but he's happy! He wanted a tandoor, for goodness' sake! Imagine if someone wove their own bamboo steamer, but it looked kinda wonky, and the internet went after them for it.

Every name is clocky when your friends are haters and/or you're too poisoned by 4chan. Poor girl's gonna be reduced to grunts and squeaks within a month

Fr, people inject e and go "omg I'm boy crazy now, must be the hormones," but then transmascs inject t and say the same shit like ๐ฅด๐ฅด
Inject hormones = go boy crazy, specifically, apparently!
@uncanny_eli
It's crazy, teenagers need double or more of the "official" recommended kcal amount depending on their activity levels. My girlfriends, thinking 1600 was normal, were horrified to learn I was scrawny but putting away 5,000 kcal daily because I was lifting weights every other day
@jpbrammer
Most of the books high-volume readers consume have a below-college reading level, or are short with large print to add page length, or are generally not conceptually or stylistically challenging. There's nothing wrong with that, but you'll read more, faster, than eg Adorno
