…okay? that is irrelevant to the conversation at hand

That was sorta the intended result here, to emphasize that to move away from cars without heavily sacrificing their QOL, most people need better public transportation and non-car options than their city is currently providing them. So the city needs to make changes to reduce dependency.

Read 1984 again if forgot why.

lol, there’s layers of irony in this line

If you’re speaking it natively and correctly to your own understanding, you’re not speaking it wrong, or unable to speak it. That assertion is asinine on its face. Languages change.

be the monkey

that achieves Hamlet

It comes with the mental illness

The game was won several turns ago, now we’re just going through the motions of a post-victory bloodbath and I don’t like it here

I just looked at a map to confirm cause I struggled to believe this and damn, you were NOT kidding. Heading east out of the city into the mountains there are 2 roads, and absolutely nothing else.

Damn, I’m really sorry to hear that. I’ve rarely encountered trans circles openly push other trans people towards bottom surgery, it sounds like you got fucked on advice by a group who’ve never really encountered genital non-dysphoric trans people. I also completely forgot there’s societies where it’s required for a legal gender change recognition. The assault thing might actually be true in some capacity regardless, but that should never have been a reason to push you to make the decision. “Numbness” can be a presentation of dysphoria, but it’s active and miserable, not passive and unnoticeable. People you talked to seem to have used those words to fit their own experiences but accidentally extrapolated them into yours.

I agree you need new therapists, and I suggest bringing a written document going over all the things you’ve brought up to us. Out of curiosity, what country/region are you from? It sounds like the therapists (and your social circles) are talking to you with a very outdated idea of what it means to be trans, one I see a lot out of certain regions like the southern US and eastern europe. One that’s very “a boy needs boy parts and a girl needs girl parts” and struggling to see how some people won’t fit that simple mold (which would explain why everyone keeps trying to tell you that you’ll get over it).

Before I poof away back into internet anonymity, I wanna tell you there is hope. It’s not easy, and the path to getting everything approved is difficult, but the same surgeons who do successful GRS for trans men can work with you to reconstruct your penis. Look into that, and give yourself something to keep living for.

So uh, slow down a second here. Not to open with hostility but we need to cover something first. Communities like this are often rightfully very suspicious of posts like this, especially phrased like this, because cishet bigots like to shit out emotionally charged posts with the intention of creating discord and getting their screenshots of objectionable replies for recirculation later. Idk if that’s what the r/traa mods were actually doing in this case, I’m not them, but it’s understandable why they’re very on edge about these kinds of posts in our current political climate. I’ve spoken to several of their mods before, they certainly don’t strike me as “dumbasses”, so I get the impression there was a lot of misunderstanding happening there, and I’m sorry to hear that.

To get at the actual meat of your issue, though, I have a lot of questions that I promise aren’t attacks on you in any way: Why did you get bottom surgery (like, fundamentally)? What were your expectations going in to it, and what were you hoping to achieve with it? What kinds of conversations did you have with mental health professionals and your surgeon about those things? Was dysphoria a motivation for you going into this? If not, what was your driving motivation?

I strongly recommend seeing a gender specialized therapist ASAP if you aren’t already. They’re gonna be able to do more to help than any social media community ever can.

Edit: removed part about being early in recovery because I misread the start of your post, I thought it said 1 month and not 1 year :( my bad

I prefer my autocrats in .txt

but seriously why are we censoring “pedophile” here?

As a trans person, blowing up swathes of schoolgirls and oil depots in my name makes me feel so much safer and more seen! Thank you Donald 🥺

someone kill me please

This feels…yonic. fun tho!

Yep. This is barely a change for China, just an amplification of their existing power over their people. It has a much larger impact in the US and other Western countries where prior to now the government hasn’t had nearly as strong of a grip on public discourse. Not good in any case though.

I don’t understand why you’d send them to eachother if you both know the other doesn’t like them. Like, what? I’m happily married and me and my partner send videos specifically because we either think the other would like them or want to make the other groan at a bad joke.

Maybe there’s people indirectly bribing trump&co by putting in bets against it ahead of time?

She’s already got access to planet destroying black holes, idk what extra harm a gun is gonna do

we’re pretty good at the war thing, not so great at the politik thing

Same as account name, user appears to be a bot

I had to look at the community name before I realized this wasn’t a photo, damn
