You deserve this

A Main Coon would be perfect for youuu

In fact, not wanting a cat is a good way to trigger the system

Hey, bisexual librarians are a key demographic, really the Muppet Show should listen to what we want more.

Also D&D is best to learn at a table, so if you know someone who already plays, see if they'll run a small game for you and one or two other people. Once you get into it, it's really just roleplaying and rolling the same dice a bunch of times

I suck at MTG and want to play with people who also suck! There's things called "commander precons" that are a pre built deck that you can play out of the box, or they sell starter sets that teach you how to play. There's also ways to play online if you, like me, don't like people at game stores.

Saw a post on /r/translater a while ago from someone who considered themself late in life for starting at 20, some of these kids need perspective

1. Tastes like pure sugar
2. Only when a hot girl calls me baby 😉

I'm sorry, why is my fortune cookie an ad for Beast Games‽‽ How will I know my lucky numbers unless I hit that bell icon?

It helps with the feeling like it was wasted, I feel like I understand who I was and how that made me *me* more. And forgiving myself for the decisions I made, because it's all part of the path to who I am now.

Highly recommend "No Bad Parts", it's what my therapist had me read.

A huge chunk of my therapy work for /years/ hasn't been trans stuff, or depression, or PTSD, it's IFS and parts work to learn how to actually love and accept who I was before I could be me. Breaking myself down into those parts, talking to them, and coming back together as a better whole.

I for one welcome our maple overlords

Can't be true, must just be the stars or the phase of the moon or something.

lol

Like, we can't start giving out trophies for winning transition, but...

There's at least one hat under there

I like to think I can kind of laugh about it as part of my odd backstory now, but that's after years of therapy and accepting myself

There was a scared girl in 2000 who read a book about a boy kissing his elbow and experiencing the joys of girlhood, and another about how boys play girls for Shakespeare plays until they fell apart. It took her another 20 years to come out.

It shouldn't take so long.

Have I become Minnesota yet?

we hates them

ironically, I spent years exclusively wearing them because every other cut gave me Feelings (positive and negative)

Literally the same. And it didn't solve everything, like I still needed a few years of therapy and SSRIs after that, but the immediate relief of your brain running on the correct chemicals.

Is that your older, more depressed cousin next to you?

I've got a crop top with "I have no tits" on it for exactly this occasion

🫂🫂🫂 sending love, but like wtf life?

So if in fact trans women have all of these supposed advantages, why haven't they dominated sports? They've been allowed in the Olympics for decades and only one trans woman has even qualified. There are rules in place to prevent cheating, this is about segregating trans people from public life

Strength, power and aerobic capacity of transgender athletes: a cross-sectional study Objective The primary objective of this cross-sectional study was to compare standard laboratory performance metrics of transgender athletes to cisgender athletes. Methods 19 cisgender men (CM) (mean...

There's an interesting study that (w/limited sample size) seems to point that in certain categories trans women are actually /worse/ athletes than cis women, with restricted lung capacity and cardio. The biggest advantages only being average height and grip strength.

If the hyah-hey! fits.

Certainly appears to be the villain Sauron to me, disguised as a hardworking member of the proud Keese community.

And do you expect a Senate committee hearing to know that?
