I don’t hear much about Montana, but this kinda strikes me as unexpected from them.

I think you have the right of it (as do other people in the thread). I guess I just need to get out of my own head about what other people think. I know I would be happier with the surgery, so… fuck everyone else?

😭 I’ll work on it.

Probably not… I’m too desperate for any level of validation to not at least consider it, though.

I mean, you’re right, obviously. I should absolutely not worry about them. Buuuuuuuuuut, what if ‘the one’ was only mildly transphobic and had a preference 🥺 <— The literally dumbass way my brain works.

Girl, I’m a slut, so many people will see, hahaha. I guess you’re right about not caring whether other people care or not, though. I think I just wanna know because it would change how I think about it before I make the decision (as much as I hate to admit it).

I don’t actually care about erections that much. They’re useful sometimes, but I wouldn’t be upset if they became a much more manual decision with medication or whatever.

I hate that “what will everyone think” is such a huge thing in my mind, but dating has already been hard enough depending on where I’m at, so I guess I just needing some perspective on how things changed for people as I go into the decision.

Thank you so much for your perspective!

Half-expecting it to become closed source ‘to prevent people from hacking it so easily’ as a result of the embarrassment of this sort of thing.

For sure, but in all those access tiers, they would presumably need to verify MY age as well to be sure of which tier I fit into, right? The only reason I can see that I wouldn’t need to use this app is if I’m on a site that isn’t age gated, I think.

Edit: sorry, I didn’t even respond to your second point. I think you’re exactly right about the issue being with them being harmful to begin with. Fixing those issues should absolutely be the first priority.

And I wanna be clear, the idea of a zero proof system is the best I’ve heard of so far in all of these concepts. At least with that there aren’t some insane security issues being overlooked. I’m just wary of the surveillance state future everyone seems to be pushing for.

This is being pitched as a thing for kids, but kids aren’t champing at the bit to prove they’re children. So, presumably this just means that any time you access a service, you’re gonna have to use this to prove your age, as an adult, right?

I was told you could meet some guy down at the crossroads, but he just wanted to play a stupid violin or something idk. You might have better luck than me.

I haven’t seen this particular quirk outside GPT users, but Claude’s seems to be, “X is quietly doing work…” or some variation of that.

“You really hit the nail on the head, but the thing you said about X is doing quiet work as well.”

Your reasoning is doing quiet work. The context is doing quiet work. Everything is doing quiet work. We’re all a bunch of librarians out here, apparently.

If you have Mac as Navi in your fan casting, I totally abandon mine because this is so much better than mine.

The Gang Solves Hyrule’s Political Crisis

Also, is that shaved Charlie as Navi? My casting would be Dennis as Link, Charlie as Ganondorf, and Mac as the fairy, for obvious reasons that the gang makes immediately clear, but all the other roles are the same. Frank would, of course, play all of the other roles as well.

In love with this new terminology you’ve gifted me. I’m going to abuse this when I describe my ideal partner.

I simply would never get anything done. I already make myself late to wherever I’m going if I meet an unexpected street cat.

My experience is it can go either way. I’ve met trans lesbians who have primarily dated CIS women, and I’ve met trans lesbians who have primarily dated other trans women. I’ve heard there are stereotypes, but fuck if I’ve seen one yet.

Is it weird to like this? I feel like this would be hella comfortable. Does it have buttons on the side for the fingers? Because that would be cool as hell.

I’m so wildly out of touch with hip hop that I struggle to find stuff I’m really into, but this absolutely rules.

People can get tuxedos, too!

Thank you! 😅
