Ooo thats sounds amazing

It can be brutally exposed, but it's just gorgeous

I was under the impression it was an injection, administered in a medical setting.

A view of Lyall Bay, looking south. A Jetstar flight is coming in to land, a container shop is heading out, dogs and people are running on the sand. The water is an almost tropical looking blue green, there is a small wave. The sand is goldy-grey.

I am always amazed by what a stunning beach Lyall Bay has. The water is chilly but lovely.
The dog watching is superb.

Yeah, ideally they eat krill and have that colour, but the pellets they are fed have krill added

Im not sure if they are all females, but there's high rates of disease and death in the fish at times.

It's really good :)

I'm the same! I often don't recognize people in a different context, the classic workmates at the supermarket thing.

A tiny orange tin can with an image of a beautiful Hispanic woman. Text says La Morena Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce.

Chipotle in adobo, but not creamy, just a chilli hot sauce

I was hungry!!

I'll have to check it out. I'm such a a sucker for that style of cover art, no matter how the movie is.

I love the cover to Blood and Black Lace! How was it?

Gluten free fish and chips!

I'm not generally a petty person, but I would love for some of these people to have everything they say to their Dr questioned, downplayed and deflected.

Rey is amazing!

Very ignorant

No, but I imagine some awesome choir must have done it, surely

I'm lucky that I had the ability to work on remote islands and switch my brain off, and that music got me through.

This is surreal

Me too. Fuckin terfs eh

Fin.

I don't want trans kids to have to go through that, I want them to be safe to talk to people, to have the language to discuss how they feel, and to be able to pause to figure stuff out, to not be judged for whatever decision they make, or go back on.

I'm an old bugger, I was used to waiting, I had developed decades of coping strategies, and it was awful.
I remember the desperation of being 14, no ability to communicate my distress except by punk music.
If I had had hope, then had it taken away I would not still be here.

Once you have hope, that cat can't go back in the bag.
Waiting to transition, jumping through hoops, while living and working in Fiordland and on Rakiura, hurt.
And that's what I really worry about with our trans rangatahi.

I just thought it wasn't possible for me to be myself. So when I had a fully formed realisation come into my head "you are a man, and you are attracted to other men" it was a lightbulb. I went to the repository of all knowledge- reddit, and found I was not alone.
