Does the Memmy for iOS app let one make brand-new posts?? If so… how? I don’t see a UI element for it; only for comments on existing posts.

Four criteria to consider:

  1. What are you good at (or hv potential to become good at)?
  2. What is i. fulfilling & ii. replenishing for you?
  3. What does the world most need?

Find an intersection of those three.

Then make a LiberaPay or OpenCollective for the fourth (what supports your livelihood). Also courses in entrepreneurship/small-biz/TooQuiet2Market.

My response to those sorts of ridiculous claims is, •Huh. I guess you haven’t heard of “intersex”. What do you call a human baby who was biologically born with bits of both??

That usually stumps them for a bit. Data-does-not-compute. Oe they ignore it and go back to their original point. … at which pt i have to hold empathy-space & validation (≠ does not equate with agreement/condoning, see footnote [1])… … and then — if and only if they seem open — ask them about if they’re aware that some human babies — to be clear, not trans folx in most case (well except by way of uninformed/nonconsent at birth, ugh) — but some human babies are born intersex.

usually tho i just leave it and no pt in doing so online usually

[1] hold empathy-space & validation does not equal & does not equate with agreement/condoning btw, as any good de-escalation specialist (like an fbi hostage negotiator or a therapist or life-coach) can tell explain better than i can rn.
