“It’s 2am why are you making pudding?”
“Because I’ve lost control of my life.”
In the beginning the universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
That leg day you skipped?
No, the burger day you didn’t.
which one?
Maybe a full bald man-scaping wasn’t such a great idea after all…
Vaguely recall a Dr. Cox (Scrubs tv show) line “The trick is to hate your body” from like 20 years ago
Hate it sooner than later, i guess
Well exactly, because evolutionarily we do still have bodies that should be covered in fur, a lot of fur.
Nah man. “Evolutionarily” doesn’t give a fuck about anyone over 30 because you’ve already had enough kidlets and are about to die from a blood infection that took hold from a rotten tooth.
Evolution cares whether you can keep the kidlets safe until they themselves have kidlets tho. That should give you at least another 5 years before your spine self-destructs
Genetically coded social behavior helps the genes even when they don’t help the individual. The most obvious example is how each worker bee in a hive or worker ant in a colony is a genetic dead end, with no offspring, but will do plenty of work to help the overall hive/colony survive.
We’re hard wired to raise our children, as can be shown by just how helpless our children are at birth, and how long it takes for them to form full maturity. That extends to the whole village, including grandparents.
Meanwhile, plenty of anthropological evidence shows that we form coalitions and tribes and work together to advance group interests, and that it’s been going on for our entire species’ history, including in the genealogical line that we descend from, outcompeting other hominids and even other branches of homo sapien that didn’t form such complex alliances.
Our brains are hard wired to develop complex language for communication with other humans. This is what helped us thrive as a species, to where our evolutionary success threatens to harm our greater environment.
But that just shows that humans are really good at socializing. And as social creatures, we have evolutionary value even beyond our direct ability to produce offspring.
Nah. We lost fur hundreds of thousands of years ago and never needed it again to survive several ice ages. So I’d say we’ve definitely evolved past fur thanks to the ‘advanced’ tool usage of… clothing.
Hundreds of thousands of years is not much time in evolutionary terms and my point is the shape of our bodies has not really caught up with our loss of hair and particularly in age we can still look a little unaesthetic. We look exactly like what we are, an animal that is supposed to have fur that has been shorn.
So do Siamese cats.
it’s been wrong for as long as i can remember. perhaps longer. it’s always been wrong, as far as i know.
it’s still wrong…
…but for the first time, it seems to be getting less wrong.

nailed it <3
but that’s aspirational at this point; right now I’m due-diligence jumping through hoops that my doctor keeps putting in my way to gatekeep me from transitioning. honestly though, i really did need to lose all this weight. i’ve recently surpassed a hundred pounds down, but i’m still at least 125 more away from a healthy enough condition to put my foot down.
it’s gonna be rather compelling and demonstrative of this not being a fleeting ephemeral whim that only arose ‘just recently’ when I can look a doctor in the eye and state with total honesty,
“I have dedicated several years of persistent effort to drag my weight down into a healthy range specifically because I promised myself that I would pursue a gender transition if i made it. I have lost more than my entire current body weight specifically in pursuit of this goal. If you try to tell me after all of that, that all my effort toward this exact goal was for naught, The Result Of Your Decision Shall Be Very ‘Unhealthy’ For Me, DOCTOR.”
Oi! I’ll not have any cat shaming! It’s a beautiful kitty!
All Cats Are Beautiful!
It went wrong from day one.
time.
Dunno, my mirror is usually fogged

My wife has been trying to convince me of this.
She is very persuasive.
