You’re not comparing like for like. Those who get rich from onlyfans are the exception. The average onlyfans creator makes shockingly little.

Popular open source projects bring in a lot of money. The Blender foundation had €4 million in income in 2024.

Those who make it big and become successful earn orders of magnitude more than those who don’t. This is true for everything.

Many trans men find a receding hairline affirming. They genuinely want it. Its literally the worst part about being a man. I don’t understand why anyone would want THAT.

But if I could give myself full blown periods with bleeding and everything, I would. So maybe actually I do understand.

Lemmy modlogs are public. You can look them up. The comment is visible there. They were banned from this community, instance, and lemmy world, I think. Its hard to tell which instance the mod action is from.

For your convienience I have included a link to their entries in the modlog, in a spoiler tag so it should require two clicks, to avoid anyone seeing hateful content unless they’re really sure.

I hope this isn’t in violation of the rules. Apologies in advance if it is.

And 12 years later the Soviet Union dissolved. I wonder if we are on that same path.

I checked every version on F-Droid and they all have the contacts permission. Its a common request on software keyboards, because it lets it add the names of those in your contact list to the autocorrect dictionary. Its nice to avoid your keyboard wrongly correcting names.

It doesn’t have the network permission, so its not able to transmit any data it has. I don’t think this is an attack.

The app has a link to their privacy policy which explains what permissions it asks for, why, and affirms the app cannot transmit the data off the device. Last updated in 2017, and still matching the permissions of the current version. This isn’t an attack.

Induced demand is real. It is a very good idea to induce demand for traffic that is inexpensive and scales well, instead of the opposite.

Every state requires proof of citizenship to register to vote. All registered voters are citizens. Read a book.

That’s been their behavior continuously since the country’s founding. This is nothing new.

The epstein files. They revealed that basically every rich white man in the US is a pedophile.

You’d think the qanon conspiracy theorists who spent a decade talking about a nonce conspiracy would be vindicated by this, but no. They couldn’t imagine the perpetrators being the obvious type, rich white men. The emails also revealed the rich pedophiles manipulated quanon to their advantage, while calling them some of the most stupid and manipulatable people imaginable.

The deer is a lesbian.

They’re honest about it, crediting the picture to “Tranzito with The Streetsblog Photoshop Desk”.

Odd choice to photoshop Mamdani sitting in front of an example elsewhere instead of just using a picture of a similar installation in another city.

I wouldn’t feel right reading other people’s minds. Invasion of privacy. Not interested.

There are times I want to disappear. There were times I became so upset, distressed, or depressed, that I wanted to disappear, to vanish and become unable to be found. It a good thing I didn’t have that power.

Most super powers are of little utility to normal people who live ordinary lives.

The jacket goes with leather boots, probably knee high. The jacket is a strong statement on its own, it doesn’t need anything complex in the rest of the outfit.

My first outfit would be a white shirt and blue jeans. Its the most basic possible outfit, but it works with this. With the right pair of jeans this has the benefit of being a safe outfit for riding the motorcycle you presumably have.

My second idea is red. Red and black is a striking color combination. Leather motorcycle jacket, mid calf high leather boots, solid red knee legnth dress.

Commercial fire systems treat a sprinkler activation as an alarm condition. You wouldn’t be able to wait around for 30 afterwards. Fire department would be there which would cause issues for your plan.

Modern commercial fire systems are very good. There are no simple solutions for arsonists. They would need physical access to the building disable the fire systems, or to be able to produce enough fire to overwhelm the spriniler’s abilities to extingush it.

Few have both the will and ability.

I would say no. The recommendations I’ve seen have all been for progesterone being added later, after one year of HRT at minimum. Its worth considering, but not right now.

The best part of the 'fit is how happy you look wearing it!

I am delighted I get to look like this now!

I have measurable breasts and trace amounts of hips, the changes are slow but persistent. I am a work in progress; the small steps are adding up. I like how things are now, and I hope to enjoy the things to come as well!

I gather I’m in a bit of a sweet spot right now. This is all pretty new to me, so there remains a palpable sense of novelty to my reflection, and I’ve not been a woman long enough to succumb to beauty industry propaganda. I do hope to stave that off as long as I possibly can.

For the time being, pretty satisfied!

Yes it appears we can
