I've done it before too, lowest point in my life, just grabbed some scissors and cut down my long hair :(

A little upsetting to see people calling it a trope, when it is a real reaction to trauma :/

Feels like you're missing the point of the fourth bulletpoint. What they are saying, is not that AI is not taking people's jobs, only that true potential comes from real humans that provide some quality that AI is not capable of truly replacing. It is being used to replace people with it's inferior imitations.

Not that your point is invalid, it absolutely is a valid and valuable criticism itself.

I don't really recall anything, maybe a random bump, I used to be rather clumsy. In my early 20s I definitely suffered some trauma though.

My moment was using the experimental repos to get an early view into wayland, after seeing it wasn't quite ready for my system I just switched back. Mistakes made, and slowly over the next few weeks as I updated, the experimental packages never got superseded and updated, until my system crashed and would not pass boot.

Luckily since it is not windows I just used a live usb stick to mount the disk and manually reinstall all the broken system packages. Scary but made me feel pretty confident I could recover the system myself in the future. Also learned a pretty important lesson. Don't do that, and look at the upgrade log if you do lol, cause the whole time, as I upgraded there was red text showing me all the system packages that were not getting updated.

Hi, yes I have aphantasia too and can't picture things :) personally I remember being able to when I was younger but I lost the ability somewhere around my teens.

Not to mention, the vast majority of Americans can't even dream of having enough money to afford the move to begin with. The American dream is reasonable rent and affordable debt repayments now.

Well this is what happens when the blue check goes from verifying identity to verifying you have paid money to feed a man child's ego.

Are they a transgender inspector of submarines? Or do they inspect transgender subs, cause.. I could do with some inspection.

how about this, we get 80% of the country, the disenfranchised non-voters and vote for an actually decent third party and destroy them both

How do I look? I've been feeling very euphoric with the new clothes but nervous if I pass or not..

But I've at least been feeling super cute lately and I try to push the doubts down. ^-^

Update: Thanks to a few of y'all who got me to look at things differently I think there was a miscommunication. I called my mom, and sorta cleared things up, they said they thought that my message out to them was saying I was planning on celebrating trans day of visibility, and not just mentioning it off hand after accepting the invite. I wouldn't be honest if I didn't say I am not fully convinced but I love them enough to forgive. Things have been rocky with them, my dad is teetering on the edge of ultra-conservative and still misgenders and dead-names me. In my mind there was a very real possibility my dad told my mom to dis-invite us after knowing it was a trans day.

:

Kinda posting to just vent, family instantly cancelled when I just mentioned it was a trans awareness day.

Crazy thing is they know me, they know we're not religious, they know that all we'd like to do is just see family (most importantly the two doggos.) And now I'm not going to be getting to do that and I just feel pretty hurt after this. I've sent some messages back and forth and they've re-invited us, but without a clear explanation or sincere apology, my partner doesn't feel comfortable around them now. I agree with her, so we won't be going.

This is the first overtly discriminatory thing I have experienced from them, and it is just so strange this is what hill they decided to claim.

I hate being a social war politic pawn, any other situation, birthday falling on the same day, solar event, or an "acceptable" awareness day, would have been met with open arms. They've just treated us as degenerates.

I wasn't expecting or wanting anything, other than perhaps a minor acknowledgement, just getting cancelled on is bizarre and I can only see it as hateful or at least extremely overly defensive over my perceived motives?

Well idk after this I feel like on march 31st it would have been really fun if I spent the day misgendering them so they could experience a taste of some of the experiences I have. But I'm still just hurt, I would have loved to get a hug from my mom and sis and pet the dogs.

Hopefully this follows the rule and venting is ok, this is my first post here and I would have rather it be something more lighthearted but I just want support and validation after this.
