Idk what happened but after years of being relatively fine I'm suddenly incredibly dysphoric again and bro I didn't miss this shit one bit

Trans guy who gets dysphoric over having lower colonic pressure and weaker perineal support

@rehab999777 @EPM106 The whole point is to feel good in your body. If for someone passing doesn't matter that is their decision. Having said that, MOST trans ppl want to pass, if only bc it's easier to get your experience across.

"Uhhhhh if what you're saying is true then basically every day would be a struggle and even achieving basic things would take an inordinate amount of effort, so clearly it's not true" yeah about that

Bring Me The Horizon vocalist Oli Sykes says new song Dehumanized was born from an event that happened last year where the band waved a Palestinian flag during their performance at Reading Festival.

"I was told that peacefully raising a flạg on stage in recognition of a humanitarian catastrophe unfolding where children were being killed would most likely carry career ending consequences. It made me realize how we are silently conditioned to suppress our humanity."

@DaniDeMarco @north0fnorth TWINS, it always looks green from farther away bc yellow+blue

[Luca 🦖 | #fncforever | 🍉 @sinister_in]

@north0fnorth My mum has the same eyes as you! I've never been able to catch my heterochromia on pictures bc even on there it looks green since blue+yellow, which it does when I'm farther away. I found a VERY old pic where you can kinda see it. I swear the green there is actually blue!

Right now at the World Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo is starting for Portugal at 41. Messi just became the oldest player in World Cup history to score a hat trick. Modrić is still running a midfield at 40. Over in F1, Alonso is racing at 44 and Hamilton is still winning at 41.

Meanwhile in League, you turn 24-26 and people already act like you're done.

Here's the thing nobody wants to say: the "decline" argument doesn't even apply to us the way it does to real sports. Football and F1 are about sprint speed, reflexes, stamina, physical recovery, stuff that genuinely falls off with age, and these guys are STILL delivering past 40. League is decision-making, macro, reads, shotcalling. That's the part of the brain that gets better with experience, not worse.

Yeah, raw reaction time dips a little with age. Yes it can impact some situations, But at league this is not the end of the world. League at the top it's a knowledge and positioning game and much more than just reactions. A veteran who's seen 10,000 of these situations beats a mechanical god who's seen 100.

And it's not just mechanics we get wrong, it's mindset. The second a player hits a certain age, we(or player) decide he's given up, lost his hunger, doesn't love the game anymore. We treat motivation like it has an expiration date. The hunger doesn't die with age.

So if it's not age, what actually pushes guys out at 24-26?

One thing: the environment. The brutal intensity, the burnout, the unsustainable schedule, the lack of support. THAT'S what drains a player's effort and love for the game. When someone "stops caring," it's almost never their age, it's either themself or the system that burned them out and called it aging.

And that's the part that should make us want to try more about it, because it's fixable. You can't slow down aging. You CAN fix a broken environment/system/schedule.
We just choose not to, and then we blame the player and call them old.

I think we should start asking why we built a scene that burns through its most experienced players and then throws them away.

Sorry for the long post just some food for thought
