  • There are also plenty of reasons “healthy” foods might absolutely fuck with your health, even if you’re not eating a ridiculous amount of them. For example whole wheat is a perfectly fine food to have in your diet, unless you have celiac disease and don’t realize it yet.

  • They’re going to announce they found that a huge percentage of trans people regret transitioning, either by outright falsifying data or by defining “regret” as “has any negative experience in any capacity related to transition.”

    I don’t hold a great amount of hope for the likelihood of the average cis person to do anything other than nod to themselves and go “I knew it”, but I would love to be surprised.

  • Your therapist is a gatekeeping fuckass, congrats on starting HRT!

  • Wait you’re telling me it’s Kickero? 🤯

  • This isn’t feminism, this is an attempt at making gender roles cute and palatable. A feminist would likely tell any woman who feels she’s responsible for her husband like she is for a child to get a divorce, because that’s not an equal partnership.

  • Another terrible death related thing: after a while, sometimes after bad news you’ll think “I’m glad [person] didn’t have to live to see this.”

  • I mean, I didn’t make it up, that’s the dictionary definition of Anglo for American English speakers. I don’t disagree with any of your points, it’s just news to me that “Anglo” is also used to mean “anyone who speaks English”.

  • You specified Anglo, which is a racial/ethnic group?? I have never heard anyone use Anglo to mean anything other than white people.

  • I live in southern California and have never noticed a racial aspect to this, most people thank the driver. Either when boarding or just calling out ‘thank you!’ as they leave through the back.

  • Do you work with younger kids? I have an in-law who teaches middle school and is generally pulling his hair out over lack of parental involvement. Kid-wranglers deserve all the thanks!

  • Welcome to lemmy! Here’s a post that lists a bunch of active communities, if you haven’t seen it already. 

    In addition to the communities listed there, I also like [email protected] and [email protected]

    Are there any specific interests you’re trying to find communities for?

  • My husband, without knowing of the existence of this community, said “that goes hard” when I showed him this picture. Certified hard.

  • In the long run, shutting up won’t save you from fascism. Every inch you give is a foot they take, and they will take and take and take if you let them.

    If you’ve never wondered whether people living under dictatorships regret not exercising their rights more when they still had them, now’s the time to start pondering.

  • Check your local library and city/county department of health, they may run free or low cost group therapy sessions.

  • Deaf people already may learn to speak without that through speech therapy, although for most it’s not their preferred method of communication.

    I don’t know how it’s changed in the modern day because the people I know who went through it as kids did it like 30 years ago, but it used to be common to hold a balloon against the throat while speaking to feel the different sounds you’re making.

  • This is straight up going to lead to suicides. Evil shit.

  • Have you considered going outside and asking people your questions in order to only get answers from ‘mentally healthy’ people?

  • anon6789 is a fucking champ. I don’t know how they churn out posts about owls and keep them high quality, but they do.
