I am not a the type of girl who is into gem/crystals but for some reason I just liked this particular name stuck in my brain when ever I was looking up crystal meanings cus I was really bored one day and wanted to understand what the hype around crystals was (still don’t really understand it but at least I got a name out of it).
I recognize my dysphoria as the feelings of numbness/nothingness I have over who I am. Like for most of the time, I feel a distance from my body like it’s just kinda there rather then being me. Come to realize that there’s words for this specific type of dysphoria Ie depersonalization and dissociation. I mean come to understand I do have the more traditional traits too, not liking my facial hair, body hair, face and body etc in general but most of the time it’s just no feeling at all.
That’s also why I believe people should focus on gender euphoria, because I think that every trans person does experience some dysphoria it’s just can be extremely hard to recognize. The question that cracked my egg after doing research about trans topics was “do you think you would be happier as the opposite gender” and instinctively I knew the answer.

Transgender•Planned Parenthood of Arizona "Pauses" Gender Affirming Care for Trans AdultsEnglish
3·11 months agoUgh I can see why but like at a certain point you just gotta say fuck it and fight it in court. Cus it feels like cutting funding for providing medical a certain type of care should be illegal.

Transgender•Judge rules against dads who wore pink wristbands to protest trans high school athletesEnglish
2·11 months agoHonestly the second a astroturfed laws case like this started by the “institute of free speech” or what ever bs right wing think tank that pays millions to its lawyers to lie about the law. It should be thrown out. They should have been forced to get an actual untainted lawyers, doubt the transphobes would ever find one not payed for by a conservative think tank tho.

Transgender•Alabama's Tommy Tuberville claims ‘entire men’s teams’ are transitioning. There’s no evidence of that because it’s not trueEnglish
2·11 months agoLet me guess his source is the movie Ladyballers. (Ie the movie that was initially supposed to be be a documentary but the daily wire with their millions of dollars to spend in researching couldn’t even find anything so they made it a fictional comedy)
JadetoLGBTQ+•S.F. Pride seeks alternative funding for LGBTQ celebration after major sponsors drop outEnglish
23·1 year agoI honestly don’t see much of a downside here.i mean it sucks for the organizers who handle the event but that’s about it. It’s a good thing the corpos are gone and have stopped pretending to care. Even if they can’t find funding worst case scenario is queer people show up anyways.

Trans•Wild Graham Linehan making the world's most childish response on a video with 377 scientific references.English
3·1 year agoHe might of shifted the focus, idk. I mean it makes sense tbh the transphobes current day are different then the transphobes when he made the og video. A lot of them are more defensive and not willing to listen no matter what someone online says.
If I where him I would of changed the target the audience from transphobes to be trans allies and people who don’t know much about trans people(but aren’t transphobic). Cus those folks might be encouraged by this video into trying to deradicalize transphobes they know irl cus and the more accurate scientific information you know the better you can argue against bs. So it’s less of a casual debunk video and more of a study guide people might want to re review multiple times till it fully sticks.
Also imo the only chance modern transphobes might change is if someone they personally know well and respect tells them they are harmful.

Transgender•Anti-sexual-assault group cuts mentions of trans people to keep fundingEnglish
7·1 year agoEspecially considering the government will probably just cut funding anyways. So at least fight until something actually legally binding is given to you. All they are doing here is temporarily extending the money they get from gov while kinda pissing off people who would of donated to them regardless of gov nonsense.
The last one can easily describe Django. Feels like depending on the code base/your mistakes/people you work with can easily turn a normal project into a project where majority of the files is just migration files.
At least they are allowed a ThinkPad.

Ontario@lemmy.ca•The biggest threat in the Ontario election isn’t Donald Trump, it’s voter disengagementEnglish
3·1 year agoThis is also true for federal, Liberals really need to figure out their new prime minister selection and fast. Like let’s face it they are the only party rn that has a chance in beating the conservatives. The longer they spend without a public face advocating for a change the less voter turnout there will be. As for Ontario Bonnie Crombie or Marit Stiles needs to do like a press junket or something that way people that are not that tuned in to the election cycle will actually remember they have another option other then Ford.
I think it might be a photoshop job(possibly AI generated) thing rather then coming from some particular movie/tv show.

transgender@lemmy.ml•Petition for Canadian government to help US trans people seek asylum/refugee status.English
1·1 year agoImo, sure it’s very very unlikely to have anything happen. But if there’s even a small chance we should continue trying. I don’t think it’s impossible for a politicians understand that people want something via a petition like this and offer a modified bill that has concessions so it doesn’t fck with any agreements we have with the US but still support trans 'refugees".
Also it’s not really about being friendly it’s more just that if shit does hit the fan and everything planned in the executive orders happens folks have a place to escape to even if it’s not perfect. Since those kinda anti human rights laws are a lot harder to do in Canada then the US.
Maybe just maybe Allen is far too close to Ellen that it would cause dysphoria? Or maybe the ell part of the name has some significance to him and his family. It’s not rocket science it’s just someones name.
Tbh I gotta respect this, I fully get it some folks just don’t vibe with certain performances by actors or certain actors in general even if that actor didn’t do anything wrong or did multiple earth shatteringly good performances.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Petition for Canadian government to help US trans people seek asylum/refugee status.English
2·1 year agoYou would still have to go through the same long and hard process as any other asylum seeker. Idk where you get the idea that trans people would be prioritized all this petition is about is legally qualifying trans people as apart of the class of people that can seek asylum in Canada.
If you want an actual discussion is a statement like, “we shouldn’t help asylum seekers because what’s stopping an immigrant from exaggerating the conflict they face in their original homeland to try and seek asylum?” In good faith?





True theo, was one of the devs who went against the stop killing games campaign claiming it was to hard for developers to have a basic end of life plan for software and other nonsense to justify game publishers screwing us over.
