Dog survives 10 weeks in Colorado mountains beside dead owner
  • You can do everything right and still end up in trouble.

  • Transgender rights are under attack. But trans people 'just want to thrive and survive.'
  • As a sufferer, it's true. It's very real. I can't argue with your ridiculous post any more than a diabetic can be expected to argue in favor of having access to insulin. Terfs have literally nothing to do with my experience with being trans. Everything you have written here is exhausting to have to deal with and it's insane that people trot out this clowny shit when they have no idea what it's like to live with this their entire fucking lives.

    Downvoting me doesn't invalidate my lived experience lmao

  • Transgender rights are under attack. But trans people 'just want to thrive and survive.'
  • No one wants to be trans. We just are born with it and have to figure it out. It's basically a medical issue. I didn't choose to do anything to my body either. The choice isn't there when not transitioning can deteriorate to being fundamentally incompatible with staying alive. A lot of bigots insist that transitioning is some trendy or otherwise low stakes thing but our lives would be so much easier if it was as easy as just not transitioning.

  • Transgender rights are under attack. But trans people 'just want to thrive and survive.'
  • Can confirm. Don't want to be brave. Don't want to be controversial. Don't want to piss anyone off. Don't want to stick it to anyone. Just want to live my own life and be left the fuck alone like literally everyone else. This very real problem that I was born with is my issue to fix and no one else's. And my life would have been a hundred times easier if I'd been listened to when I first voiced this problem as a minor.

  • Authorities Say Devastating LA Freeway Fire Was Likely Arson. No Timeline Yet On Reopening
  • For various reasons, cities in America do not really invest in alternatives to automobile use. It's not an LA exclusive problem but LA is a good example of why this can't be the only way for your citizens to get around.

  • USPS warns of scam involving texts requesting information for package delivery
  • Yeah very hilarious post when it's your mother with dementia.

  • They prey on the vulnerable. That's really all you have to say.

  • Will the Supreme Court Make Life Worse for America’s Homeless?
  • That seems to be the job of the Supreme Court for quite a few groups of people yes.

  • One can only hope he's nowhere near a position of power with kids again. What a tremendous piece of shit. Of course he brought religion into a conversation about a girl having the audacity to enjoy life. It's like he couldn't wait to say the quiet part out loud.

  • A Disney World water slide caused a painful 'wedgie' and severe injuries, suit says
  • Feel like you can safely just leave it at the severe injuries bit.

  • Justin Roiland used his ‘Rick and Morty’ fame to pursue young fans, text messages show
  • Imagine being so lucky that you become a household name off of animation of all things but then deciding to do exactly what John K did. At least Rick and Morty won't go the way of Ren and Stimpy. Not yet, anyway.

  • I was fired earlier this year because they manufactured some drama after I needed a sudden comprehensive additional surgery when a planned one round something alarming that demanded specialist surgeons. I feel like we really should not be in a country where a company can decide to screw your life at time of firing and then screw you for future jobs by not providing anything truthful about your time there. I'm still struggling months later, including the general anxiety of knowing I could go bust my ass for someone and have them do this to me all over again. Fuck this predatory atmosphere we seem to just celebrate.

  • Video of a flash mob of thieves ransacking a Nordstrom department store in southern California
  • You really really don't need a business to fence things in 2023. It's also safe to assume that a group that can coordinate a robbery like this one likely has put the effort in to coordinate where the loot is going.

  • Wayne Brady Comes Out as Pansexual: 'I'm Doing This for Me'
  • Human sexuality is itself prejudiced. That's the whole point of the queer movement. You are claiming that sexual attraction is never allowed to stop once it starts, but people do that all the freaking time over the most mundane reasons. The dealbreaker is absolutely allowed to be genitalia - it can also be a mole or an odor or a nose that you decide reminds you too much of someone who caused trauma or whatever. People are allowed their fluidity, especially once you start moving into less sex positive spaces. It is very much you saying we can control attraction to deny how sexuality operates.

  • Wayne Brady Comes Out as Pansexual: 'I'm Doing This for Me'
  • Hey there. Trans person here to tell you that you are just straight up wrong. We haven't been fighting for rights for years so people can backtrack on the basic rules of sexuality out of misplaced identity zealotry. The whole point of most queer dialogue is that you can't control who you're attracted to. Magically changing that is actually just another way to harm trans people in the eyes of potential cis allies.
