I too would be embarrassed to approach strangers and tell them I support a rapist felon for president.

Couldn’t agree more about the weather, I love the PNW “nice day” of clouds, mist and fog. If you have time, go take a silly picture with the Fremont troll, it’s near Gasworks which is also a spectacular view.

Oh goodness that takes me back, I remember enjoying that one a long time ago. Super unique mechanics and puzzles but you’re right, on the shorter side.

Will absolutely second your recommendation.

Despite a recent history of anti-transgender rhetoric, Robinson said he enjoyed watching transgender pornography

Good enough to be porn, not good enough for rights.

And they said I wouldn’t be a real woman…

Doctors aren’t infallable as you may think;

The irony of raging about anti vaxxers while using their talking points.

Yep.

Well that is just an outright cruelty. Fucking stop.

And if the answer is no, then I’ll offer my condolences

Do that anyways.

probably do some research to see what opportunities for treatment they have available

Holy shit don’t. This post isn’t your personal call to action. OP’s doctors know far more about their treatment than some rando online. OP is venting, not asking for your personal medical advice.

Please, try to understand what you are doing here is harmful, not help and learn how the disabled community is begging people to stop saying these things.

Nothing but feels for you friend, that’s rough and I can’t imagine what it must be like. I too am coming to grips with my own disabilities, a spine injury putting me into a wheelchair. Losing a sense on top of everything else you mentioned is horrific.

If I may be so bold, I found a lot of peace, zen and understanding in the book “What doesn’t kill you”. I recently finished and it was incredibly gratifying to read about how other people struggle with life changing medical events.

This is 100% inappropriate to ask. While I am also very pro-vaccine and frustrated at the anti-vaccine movement, you’re talking to some who is grieving the loss of a major part of their life. Saying all this is on par with “Did your mom X with you” or “This wouldn’t have happened if you didn’t Y so much” to explain disabilities. No one owes you their medical history and shame on you for asking. You’re fishing to put personal blame on to someone so you can get a sense of smug schadenfreude from another suffering. Let’s say the answer is yes, are you truly here to do a victory lap?

Vance makes more sense as a Trump VP than Pence ever did. Just a big lyin’ sack of shit who doesn’t care about facts or reality, just saying whatever BS line serves his purpose in that very moment.

Pence is a christian fascists fuck, but at least he has principals. They are misguided evil controlling ones, but the man at least has a backbone.

I’m literally never fully comfortable. Even with drugs, my special pillow and laying just right I can get down to a 3/10 pain wise. And that’s without decadent luxuries like going to the bathroom, which rockets everything up to 6/10 for the next hour.

Exactly!!! Porn exists and is easily accessible to anyone that looks. I watch TV and movies for story and charcters, not softcore. It’s just tacky and uncomfortable to make it part of an otherwise serious drama. Yes humans have sex and that’s nothing to be ashamed of nor hidden, but we don’t need tits and titillation to show these two characters are intimate.

Laura Loomer is a cheesy superhero name.

Millenal here, but yeah there are too many wildly unnecessary sex scenes in a lot of mediaLike, if it’s an earned thing as part of a romance movie? Sure. But if there are bouncing titties I the first 30 minutes I’m just annoyed and uncomfortable. Looking at you HBO, a conversation between two charcters isn’t helped by them banging while talking.

Plz stahp.

But, I’m also ace too… so maybe I’m biased 😂

Selling out your wife to advance your career is small town family values.

Are any of these games worth caring about?

The reality is that trans people wait YEARS on a list trying to get surgery. And that’s after receiving referrals from two separate psychiatrists. The fact that conservatives think that this happens overnight behind parents backs is a deluded cruel joke.

So I don’t have anything to say about Masterson other than he’s a monster. But to share a related personal anctodote.

It’s very possible the veil was lifted, so to speak, at that trial.

A few years ago I started becoming more active with a friend I had grown distant with. She introduced me to her new circle of friends which included a guy named Barry. Who was awaiting trial for “something that was blown out of proportion”, this was an ongoing very long process since covid pushed his court date back like two years in total. So I met him a few times and heard him describe the case. But I was always skeptical of his story, how do you just wake up in a bush with a gun to a police dog with zero recollection of the night before?

But I let it slide in the moment because I was in a pretty vulnerable lonely place after a bad breakup, however I made DAMN sure to actually attend his trial. The only one of the friend group who did, and he was very thankful and called me a good friend. But I really just wanted to hear the story from the defense.

Barry didn’t mention the gun shots he fired as his ex girlfriend or the camera footage showing him stumbling around with a gun. He didn’t mention that he was shooting outside when his home is next to a school and it caused the school to close, also didn’t mention the threats he made. The lawyer for Barry couldn’t make much of a defense for him, just that he was in AA and doesn’t drink anymore.

Barry went to jail. And I made absolutely sure that everyone heard abiut what I learned. But the tradgey was that most people just thought I had a personal grudge against him. That I didn’t know how crazy his ex GF was and that she totally (probably) provoked him.

Long story short, it’s easy to talk around the truth to you friends, who of course will take your side. Going to a trial and hearing the evidence yourself can be a very eye opening experience.

Beat ya to it.

Yup. That’s super gross. I totally agree.

But, probably not for the same reason.

Well that’s dissapointing. You don’t want to discuss AI and art, but to call names.
