I'm saying this with 100% seriousness: it is better to be single than it is to be with someone who is going to be weird about your kinks. You CANNOT have a meaningful relationship with someone to whom you can't expose your vulnerabilities. That road only leads to tears.
Don't date anyone who makes you hide your diapers
Not even joking, I'm married to an someone with 0 interest in ab/dl and she ambivalent to it
I have seen too many folks who hide their ab/dl side or let their non-ab/dl partners shame them for this kink. It won't work in the long run

all of the writing around Belle is impossibly potent. expressive, and with a deep faith (pun intended) to the character and her world - and ours. between that and everything else going on, there's just... nothing else like Steel Jaws. you must read it

Hearing "why aren't you working for a big studio? Why aren't you directing at your age? You're so good, what do you mean you have trouble finding a job?" gets so tiresome. Thank you for saying I'm a good artist but I don't think that really is the thing that actually gets you jobs anymore 🤷

I must’ve been a postdoc at MIT or a new-ish engineering professor when I first heard the story of how Ben Barre overheard colleagues talking about how his research was so much better than his ‘sister’ Barbara’s.
We're disappointed to see Ben Barres's powerful book "The Autobiography of a Transgender Scientist" among the ~400 titles removed from the Naval Academy Library. Needless to say, we're proud to have published his book and will keep it — and his memory — alive.
The Coming Out of a Transgender Scientist
"I know that I am making the right decision because whenever I think about changing my gender role, I am flooded with feelings of relief."

That's the thing with dopamine being tied to task initiation - there's a set of gears that won't - CAN'T - engage in my brain, but none of my problems are with analysis.
I can be fully aware of all the necessary steps, and stressing about starting, and just... not.

Sorry for Yankposting a bunch. Shit's been dark for a full 365 days as I worry for my American pals and a pro-trans candidate won a big municipal election over a sexual criminal and totem of the old order and it's a breath of fresh air in a sealed room.

The square cube law is not in the reader's favor here, sadly. Mars has a huge battle mech scene. They can get away with heavier bot designs at 0.38 g, and have thousands of kilometers of uninhabited desert on which to stage battles far away from structures that could get obliterated by shrapnel.

A failing society is one that demands people starve in order to uphold arbitrary and socially constructed ideas of normalcy, value, and worth.
We need to reject the idea that anyone at all must work to "earn" the right to eat and live.

The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
The ones who aren’t working are children, the disabled, elderly & unpaid caregivers. They’re people who can’t work through no fault of their own.
No one "deserves" to starve:

SNAP funding is set to expire at the end of the month, meaning 42 million Americans will go hungry. A large percentage of those on SNAP are disabled, and many won't be able to stand in a bread line.
