Did your cousin’s friend Jeremy offer it unprompted or did you ask for that?

I’ve been setting myself up to move out of country for a few months now. So I’ve been planning since before the election but it used to be “if I make it cool if not I’ll find my path here” and now it’s more “I’m getting out of here with or without a plan”. I know I should want to stay and fight but my body is aging, I’ve been fighting for so long, my trans ass is one of the first on their kill list. My last offer to help the people around me is I’ve got the savings to keep two people alive a couple years so maybe someone I know can escape with me

Sounds space inefficient just add more people instead

Simple solution is to pack enough people in that they can’t move like that

Not exactly legal but it’s pretty common to ask a friend for a couple doses. If you can find a good professional though I’d advise that. You can get a diagnoses and they’ll have you try different meds to see what works well for you

A few months ago I was in Taiwan and accidentally tried stinky tofu. It was pretty good actually! What happened was we were up really early in the morning before the stall’s smell set in and I grabbed a snack. I honestly don’t know if I could eat it with the smell as strong as it gets but maybe if I grabbed some and brought it to a different location it would still work for me

My ex spouse got an app that gave alerts every time there was anything going down in our neighborhood. They went from cautious to walk around at night to “omg we live in a crime riddled hellhole with people being murdered everywhere” and stopped going outside. People now have access to so much information, often explicitly designed to make you fearful, and we suck at statistics

Yeah it’s about the only silver lining of my life right now so I’m latching onto it! I’m pretty excited that it’s even a possibility for me should be interesting if it works out

Idk Idaho is way too blue in this to be believable

I love how every time we get a better look at them black holes slap around our current understanding of things

I’m not sure I understand the reaction, mind explaining?

My cat would have broken everything in this picture to get there including somehow the handrail

I made blackberry jam for the first time this year. I saw the suggested sugar to put in and was blown away, used 1/3 of that, it’s still quite sweet

I love fage, mixed with some roughly chopped cherries is so good. I’ve switched to making my own yogurt recently but the original starter I used was fage and it hasn’t let me down

A bit of brown sugar really helps bring a red sauce together and yogurt is good sweet or savory (granted I like my sweet yogurt to just be sweetened with fruit and no pure sugar added but that’s a preference thing)

As per usual in my responses to comments like this, just because it is easy for you to make these things doesn’t mean it is easy or practical for everyone to. From scratch takes longer, requires more knowledge which takes time to acquire, makes more dishes, requires more types of equipment, and in the case of yogurt can be a safety thing

It is on the companies making these products to do better not on the individual seeking to make a part of their life easier

If you’re trans too then add that to the list lol. I got pulled away from the industry for stability reasons but I’m not in that situation anymore. I’ve only ever wanted to be a game dev, as a kid it never occurred to me to be anything else, it still doesn’t. I know I’m not one of those hotshot early twenties devs who cracked into the industry right away, I’m a bit slow to it, but I’ll get there if it kills me

My entire social circle and marriage fell out from under me in the last year. Nobody left but me so I’m going to take advantage of the freedom to make questionable decisions since it will only affect me now if it goes sideways

Don’t tell me not to follow my life goals. I know what I’m getting into

Back to game dev. I tried the first time around over ten years ago, dropped out of college, got one abusive job in, then switched to QA automation for pay. I had a heavy focus on programming because I’m naturally good at it but I want to be a level designer so I’m going to study that specifically. Gonna halve my salary or worse to get into level design

I’m at the edge of being able to buy a house in my lifetime and it is so frustrating. I’ve had decent career progression, I live fairly comfortably right now, I still rent. Every year my finances are at a place where I could afford a home in a couple years but those couple of years never gets closer. I’ve decided I’m going back to college instead so I can crack into a more fulfilling but lower paying job. If I’m going to be a wage slave forever might as well be doing something I find value in instead of chasing a dead dream of owning a house
