That was the explanation. I did not get an answer on why he’s being injected with AIDS (especially instead of HIV, could have been a teaching moment)

It’s a no name brand I got from Bezo’s outlet. Ran out of my coloplast free samples and it’s oddly hard to buy bags without insurance.

- Comment on They have already decided to promote an existing employee. But play the "search" game and screw you 2 days ago:
I worked at a shitty movie theatre for years and was promised an assistant general manager position - as in, showed my name tag with the position. Learned both front and back of house, worked literal 100 hour weeks (no OT, no benefits because “entertainment industry.”
Instead, they hired a random sociopathic woman who was lazy and did nothing at all. Not only verbally abusive, but also physically assaulted me. Absolutely tanked morale and they started hemorrhaging employees.

If they wanted to do anything about pedophiles, they could.
removed is in the Netherlands, an EU country, right? A website that has hosted child pornography for more than a decade (Amanda Todd killed herself in 2012? They took it down for a little while after that whole “global network of guys raping their sleeping partners and uploading it” thing earlier this year, but it’s up again. I doubt it would take more than 10 minutes to find illegal content on there right now.
It’s all a farce. It’s entirely possible to target individuals making and distributing CSAM, but it’s much easier to do nothing and use it as an excuse to spy on citizens.

That’s a very broad and sweeping claim. Do you have any evidence to back that up? Are you making that claim for all cultures?

Here’s something I learned from practical experience - even if they reroute your guts so you shit into a bag (colostomy), as long as you have still have a rectum, you’ll still occasionally have to poop out mucus.

Yep. States like Oklahoma are already petty fiefdoms ran by whatever christofascist can yell the loudest. We have zero government transparency or accountability because the federal government refuses to enforce the law.

Id say it’s more likely to be a trans dude than a trans women. Estrogen gives ya tits, but testosterone doesn’t undo tits.
- Comment on She skipped groceries for a week to pay for that Little Caesars. 2 weeks ago:
So, you do expect it, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t feel like shit. My high schoolers said all kinds of horrific nasty shit about me because I was clearly gay, including graphic and specific discussions about my supposed inability to pleasure a woman, which was stupid - but in any other context that would be considered a hostile workplace environment and wouldn’t be tolerated.
Now I mostly work with younger kids, and they do not have a filter. They say things that hurt. When they say those things, I can certainly acknowledge that they don’t have the level of empathy and compassion that an adult has, but that doesn’t mean it feels good.
Teaching and working with kids leads to emotional burnout. You can only handle those sorts of comments so much before it starts to fuck with you, especially if you lack a support system elsewhere.
We shouldn’t expect teachers to be Jesus. At least not when the pay is so shit that most have to have a second job (which also does not help on the burnout end).
- Comment on time to eat 2 weeks ago:
I used to not anything all day, then take an edible and eat all of my calories at once. Depending on stress, sometimes I regress to only being able to eat a few safe foods (when it’s really bad - only the pizza and nacho lunchables), and weed usually helps there.
Since I had stomach surgery recently and have to eat small things frequently, I bought a shit ton of bulk snacks and I always keep some with me. I also gave myself permission to buy bottled water. It’s helped a lot to have little things on hand, so I don’t have to interrupt whatever I’m doing to eat. I just grab some goldfish crackers and a water bottle out of my backpack and then I’m good to go.

You could get 67 hours of content pretty easily on Grindr with about a week of effort. Now, getting them to film it in 4k might be tricky, it’s usually blurry shots of them jerking it in the bathroom.
- Comment on She skipped groceries for a week to pay for that Little Caesars. 2 weeks ago:
Bro, the parents at the school I taught at had the schools number blocked (if they had cell service at all) because they didn’t want to hear about their children beating the shit out of other children, or destroying school property, or smoking pot….
I had a pizza party once. I got paid $2200 a month and already spent at least $50 a month on supplies (kinda hard to teach chemistry if you don’t have chemicals…) I gave one of my class a pizza party, spent more than a hundred dollars.
Did any of them thank me? LOL. No, they complained because they could only have one slice.
- Comment on Using conservative logic 2 weeks ago:
It’s like the “social contagion” and “rapid onset gender dysphoria” bullshit. Somehow being repeatedly told that you just need to be happy being a girl/boy is cancelled out instantly by seeing a trans person exist. Then they pretend that you just walk into a gender clinic and leave with a HRT script and a surgery appointment.
- Comment on How do you keep your shit organized? 2 weeks ago:
Physically. Inventory would be smart, to stop me from buying shit I already have, but I’m worried that my apartment is in the early stages of something from Hoarders.
Other complication right now is that I’m still recovering from surgery - standing for fifteen minutes fatigues me and bending over is painful. It sucks, because I had taken off a week for cleaning at the end of last month and spent all of it in bed sick with the thing that sent me to the hospital.

The elaborate bus jacking was pretty violent. I think he also had some prisoners do things like write messages in their own blood when he was testing the notebook out.

I actually don’t have insurance so it probably wasn’t a factor.
I am super fucked lol.

I need to get my IUD replaced (it’s been 10+ years) and I’m terrified. I don’t have insurance, so my best option is Planned Parenthood, who told me that it was “just a little pinch.”
I’ve been fucked with knives and wartenberg wheels (abusive BDSM relationship). That shit was not “a little pinch.” I filled up a diaper with blood afterwords.
It’s to the point where I avoid seeing doctors, unless it’s the nurse practitioner who does my hormones - he’s the only doctor I’ve felt listened to me.
They’re so damn condescending too - I’ve taught biology and chemistry - I can understand a real explanation of what’s happening and want one!
- Comment on Why do doctors not seem to give a fuck about pain? Is this just an American doctor thing, or is it universal? 2 weeks ago:
Part of why my condition got so bad to begin with was because I’ve had so many bad experiences with doctors that I didn’t go to the hospital until I started feeling unbearable pain. I spent a full two weeks with an infected abscess just getting worse and worse because I figured that whatever it was would be blown off if I went to the hospital - because that happens any time I’ve ever gone to an ER.

If I give them back the leftover oxy from what they sent home with me, would that help in getting any potential “drug seeker” notes removed?
I don’t even get how I’d abuse the stuff. It just makes me sleepy. Like - marijuana is fun because it makes food taste good and helps me think more creatively. Opioids take away intense pain just enough for me to sleep it off. I ended up throwing away most of a bottle of Percocet after I got my top surgery because I’d rather have a little breakthrough pain on Tylenol and be cogent than sleep 18 hours a day.

As a trans guy, I got about 50/50 “she” versus “he” despite being a fat balding bearded guy. I’m guessing that factored into it too.

I don’t understand the adolescent need for every female character to be fuckable.
Consider the absolute meltdown over the new God of War game. It’s to the point where some loser made an AI slop game where the character does laundry, gives birth, etc… because they’re so buttmad that every game isn’t Stellar Blade.

The idea of a “silt out” cave diving is absolutely terrifying to me. That you can accidentally kick up some dust and then you’ll have no idea which way is up or down, that you’ll be flailing around in the water and won’t be able to see anything is nightmarish…

The explanation everyone is missing here is the Hays Code.
Pre code movies from the 20’s and 30’s can be quite racy, even occasionally including things like gay people.
- Comment on It's not that bad quit whining 4 weeks ago:
They do this to trans guys too. Recent hospitalization was 50/50 “she” versus “he” from the nurses and docs of course.
They refused to put me out and barely gave me pain meds while I was screaming as they stabbed and dug around to drain an abscess. Worst pain I have ever experienced was “anxiety.”
