@holisticgrenade I didn't get rid of my allergies to cats by changing the cats' diets. I got rid of it by changing my own. Allergies are created from our own bodies reacting improperly. You're so close to the truth, though. Just looking the wrong direction.
@mmbirmingham@JimCantore Those afternoon downpours are what we need to get through it. But we aren't getting them anymore. When I moved here 13 years ago, you could set your watch by the 4PM downpour. Now, we're lucky if we get rain once a fortnight. It's enough to make some of us hope for a hurricane!
@ElliotCohe74430@elonmusk@Tesla@teslaownersSV How about posting a video where there is actually a sudden obstacle a human couldn't react to? This one was super avoidable by a human driver. I'd have liked to have it when a man ran out in front of the vehicle I was in but we couldn't see him until he got past the vehicle ahead
@CumberpatchM@Matt_Bracken48 Nope. Not okay. Offensive to people with DS and also wildly inaccurate. People with DS would never go on insane rants like he does. Their brains are wired toward happiness, not anger. If anything, he's the total opposite.
@AjApplegoose@BrandonStraka Anyone who chooses to vote a specific party down the line, rather than considering each individual candidate or issue based on their own merits is a part of the problem. We need to stop getting so attached to "identities" that are based on other people.
@Underrated_Dom@Thefactsdude They both made poor choices here. She didn't have to take it. He didn't have to throw it in her car when she refused to take it. He could have let her drive away salty and note she refused to take it. Instead, he escalated. They both should have known how it was going to end.
@Exdetransition1@s4r4h4d4ms@againstgrmrs That is a broken system. Dysphoria of any kind should never be treated by making someone look the way they think they should. It should be treated by helping them accept the way they do look. I only say look and not function because its impossible for surgery to recreate function
@TracycCoyle@againstgrmrs 2/2 which can be overcome with education, experimentation and mindset shifts or work on their relationships, to victims of uninformed consequences of surgical mutilation that destroys the possibility of ever having normal bodily function.
@TracycCoyle@againstgrmrs 1/2 I used to be one of those 10-15% of women. Then, I joined the 30-50%. After exploring my own body by myself and with other partners, I'm no longer a member of either group. You're comparing women who are victims of purity culture (one partner forever, only after marriage)
@ibdgirl76 I was refused adequate pain relief both in hospital and after surgery when I broke my ankle. I spent weeks literally screaming in pain. They offered a referral to pain mgt, who lost the 1st referral, sent the 2nd to the wrong dept, and then put me on a wait list 3 months long.
@TinaPJMD@sappholives83@XPhrone Many children who are abused then turn and abuse other children around them because their brains think "this is what you're supposed to do". Children learn by example. Which is why one child being abused by an adult can cause an entire community of children to then become victims
@AngryBiologist2@wattle1854@gigabasedd Are you serious with this? Breastfeeding has immense benefits for both mother and baby beyond one year. It isn't just about clean water and access to food. Breastmilk contains antibodies, analgesics, hormones, and many other compounds that are essential for brain and body
@burnyourbinder May I ask what your parents could have done differently that would have actually helped you and not pushed you away by refusing to affirm your choice to be trans? I don't want to lose my 14 year old because I protected their future when they were too young to understand...
@SaltyAnneBonney@burnyourbinder She was a CHILD. She did not have a fully formed prefrontal cortex, nor the life experience to give her the wisdom required to truly consent. It was not her fault. She was manipulated. Do you blame girls who are SAd too?
@Genevie44927299@burnyourbinder This is truly the only way to get them to stop performing these surgeries on children. If everyone who grows up to regret it sued, malpractice insurance would skyrocket and doctors would stop doing the surgeries because they wouldn't make them money.
@ellerylucinda@burnyourbinder I truly hope people like OP do begin writing books, for two separate audiences, though. One version for children considering it, and one for adults. There are definitely topics that need to be omitted from the one for kids, but I think it would still be enough to help them.
@AntiRapeGod@StellarFox16@transsexualmale Why do you say nature centers men when most species other than humans center females? Humans did, too, before Christianity. Nature supports matriarchal systems. Only religion supports patriarchal ones.
@transsexualmale@StellarFox16 How foul is it to not consider it when a CHILD is undergoing a surgery that will remove that as an option for them when they grow up? When I was 14, I wished for infertility because I thought I'd never want bio kids. I changed my mind 5 years later.
