Also sometimes how having a body feels like.

Most of the time, leg crams are intentional. Not really worried about the few that are unintentional as long as they go away on their own or can be walked out.

What if I’m already doing that?

You do hits for $20 and even autograph the victims?

It doesn’t have to be a thing, but it can be a thing.

She is a woman though.

Danmachi seemingly popularized the super-long titles and isn’t an isekai.

Or it should be a whole sentence explaining the basic premise of the show.

Why does dai think there’s suppose to be a map?

Given that I currently look like a recently-shaved walrus in a dress

Is that supposed to be an insult?

I never used those apps. But generally didn’t like the treatment of the communities by the admins. At least here, I can and do swap around between them to avoid those admin. The mods were rarely an issue on either platform ime. I got a temp ban on one community here and given what people thought I was saying and the purpose of the community, I think it was deserved.

I’ve seen it, but its extremely rare compared to the number of times people on this platform accuse someone of saying that because they say something like “I’m not voting for anyone who knowingly gives weapons to other countries to commit genocide.”

At least among non-white people, his approval has gone from 80% at the start of Biden’s term to 46% now. So… he was popular with certain demographics before. Now he’s not (except democrats, liberals, and postgraduates still have an approval rating above 50%). He has a higher approval rating from boomers than non-whites now.

All of them apparently. But the best just does it as <15mph.

The Forester was able to provide timely warnings in all testing scenarios, and was able to slow down enough to avoid colliding with the target at 31 and 37 mph speeds. At 43 mph, AEB reduced the speed by an average of 32 mph when the motorcycle was in the center of the lane, and by 29 mph when it was offset. While that was considered “good”, it still means the Forester hit the motorcycle target at a speed of 12 mph when it was in the middle of the lane, and 14 mph when it was to the left or to the right. Either speed is still enough to do significant damage, but it only gets worse from here.

Glad to hear that. Just want to make sure you aren’t being unkind to yourself.

Like, I’m the sperm donor, not the one who carried them for nine months.

Neither of my moms birthed us and that doesn’t make them any less of moms. And we don’t even talk to the person who birthed us (we probably have talked to our formally anonymous sperm donor more recently and are on better terms with him). You shouldn’t let irrelevant things make you feel like you are less of a mom. If its a compromise for your children, that seems like a good enough reason to accept “dad”, but you shouldn’t feel like you would be an imposter (or you should at least realize those feelings aren’t rational).

Similarly during the energy crisis, there was suddenly a surge of interest in alternatives to fossils.

I realized I was some flavor of trans about two years ago. At first, I considered myself agender and not cis, but didn’t accept the trans label (that didn’t last long so its still about 2 years either way - I still like the agender label I think, but also consider myself transfem). Started HRT almost 3 weeks ago.

Part of the delay was not sure HRT was right for me. Specifically didn’t know if boobs were something I wanted to deal with, so I tested them out via breast forms, including going cosplay back in November.

Another is I worried about how it would affect my ability to earn money, so I wanted to save up a lot first.

Another reason for waiting is a I wanted to at least come out to my parents and sister before starting (which I still have not done).

Anyways, finally decided to start because we were considering getting a house and if so, that would have delayed savings goals far too long. At the same time, my sister announced being pregnant and I realized I didn’t like the idea of being an uncle.

I still am not certain and wonder if I should quit taking HRT. I don’t really have a reason why I should stop, but given I don’t consider myself a woman, it feels like I’m breaking some sort of rules that I intellectually don’t believe should exist (if someone wants HRT, it shouldn’t matter what their gender is). And of course anxiety related to discrimination is still a thing, particularly given my field of work and the state I’m in. Also, the anxiety of having an appointment for getting HRT (the lack of specific goals and using my very gendered birthname made me feel particularly like an imposter during the appointment) and anxiety starting (despite being really happy about it) I think triggered quite significant feelings of dissociation before I started, so at the time I started, my thoughts were basically “the me of a few days ago decided I should take this, so I’m going to, but I have a hard time feeling like that person was me and I feel disconnected for my current feelings.”

For example, here’s a protein called “myoglobin”, that carries oxygen within your blood:

Myoglobin is in the muscles. Hemogoblin is in the blood and is essentially 4 myoglobin molecules that can combine into one hemoglobin. IIRC, the combination of the 4 makes it easier to switch between accepting and donating oxygen, where myoglobin is better just at the taking oxygen.
