Look don't test me I'll block and turn off reblogs with a hair trigger if you all can't be normal about this but I do feel like it needs to be said that "do you think abortion should be allowed if the mother's reason for wanting it is—" the only acceptable answer to that question is Yes no matter what the end of that sentence is going to be. I do not care if someone wants an abortion for selfish reasons or bigoted reasons or cruel reasons or any other hypothetical strawman you can think of, there is no circumstance where someone should be denied the right to opt out of a forced pregnancy and birth. First of all, who's in charge of interrogating everyone seeking an abortion to make sure they're doing it for reasons Pure Of Heart? Second, why do you think Forced Birth is an appropriate punishment to inflict on anyone? If your answer to "should abortion be allowed when the motivation is—" is anything but an unequivocal "yes, and I don't care about the motivation" then you are not pro-choice

my crack team of internet addled 16-24 year olds have been working day and night to invent a belief system that is near identical to that of the average white father in the 1950s. No its ok we are using words that are newer and also dumber.

God grant me the strength to do the things I enjoy

womens clothing sizing is based on how much the company wants you to kill yourself

Some spins on the "mostly male team with a token woman" trope:

• The woman is trans and stayed in her old circle of bros even after transition
• The woman is the only one in her circle of "girls" who didn't turn out to be a trans man

Baby trans girls: you do not have "like, A cup boobies." Get some measuring tape. Learn your bust and band size. Do not eyeball this. Even if you dont want to wear bras, knowing your measurements will make shopping easier. Get your hip, waist, and butt while you're at it.

Most of all though, this will teach you to be less of a stranger to your body. Nobody really teaches you this. But you have a woman's body now. Treat it like one, like it is yours. You can be an outside observer to yourself through an objectifying gaze, or you can learn that your cup size is probably larger than you thought.

Cup size is not based on looks. It is based on surface area. Even cis women make this mistake and wear uncomfortable bras for years. On my second year of E, i took measurements again and was shocked to find I was a C cup despite what i thought was little visible difference in size; growth in other areas really played tricks on my eyes.

And while we are at this, if learning your measurements seems scary because you think it will make shopping scarier or that you'll never find something that could fit you; whatever hanghup you have, there are cis women facing it too. Maybe you'll never wear the frilly lingerie store stuff, but neither will an awful lot of women in general. Measurements in hand, you can find a lot of stores and resources catering to all shapes and sizes.

All this said, the societal standard that you "need" to wear one for decency is prudish bullshit. Do what will be most comfortable for you, but dont reject the notion of a bra as a fashion accessory; certain types look better with certain kinds of tops. Some tops are a tough sell without one. And many bralettes alone can make an incredible top for a layered warm weather outfit.

my goal for 2025 is small simple and clear: change my whole entire life

y'all know that whole left-brained/right-brained thing is fake right? and the "brain fully develops at age 25" thing? and the "we only use 10% of our brains" thing? yeah they're all complete horseshit please yell at anyone who says them

"i can't benefit from oppressive power structures, i'm literally nice :)" is a disturbingly common sentiment on here and if u express it then i can never trust u again

ripped all my bootstraps off im pulling myself up by the g-string these days

Apple propaganda notwithstanding, the reason tower PCs are big isn’t because they’re outdated. The reason tower PCs are so bulky is because they’re designed to be user serviceable. The case has lots of open space so your big, meaty hands can easily access all of the components, and everything is secured with friction-fit tabs and standard machine screws to minimise the need for specialised tools. A properly laid out tower PC is fully serviceable with a single Phillips-head screwdriver and no greater manual skill than your average Lego playset – heck, for some of the more modern case layouts you don’t even need the screwdriver, unless you’re performing major surgery like a full motherboard replacement.

Like, think about who benefits from convincing you that a fully modular computing device that can be serviced and repaired with your bare hands and minimal technical skill is unfashionable.

my coworker was trying to connect to the big screen in the office for a presentation today but couldn't get it to work in spite of having had IT 'fix' the problem multiple times in the past so i joked that she has some kind of technology curse and then i lent her my laptop so she could present and when she gave it back to me excel crashed and then windows explorer crashed and then i lost my connection to the company server and i am starting to think she might actually be cursed like for real
