Once you personify the universe you're done. The only thing that gives meaning is us, and our naturalism -- even that hated "desire" we're supposed to renounce to find happiness -- is the only dasein. One does not become fully human by trying to turn into a plant.Cornell University

Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

Re: Gender Studies I
I wouldn't be so quick to blame religion as I would pure ignorance and poor upbringing. Roughly 90% of Filipinos identify as Catholic, and while the fed government is behind the times regarding LGBTQ laws, LGBTQs are not forced into hiding no matter how flamboyant some may be. I couldn't tell you how many trans I've had working for me, but also in general at my company. You regularly see it on local media, advertising, music and entertainment. This is not to say homophobia doesn't exist but there's a greater sense of "live and let live". Now God forbid you be from China, Korea,...
We used to toss around the term, "gay" in junior high like it was candy. For me at least it wasn't out of fear or because God told me to hate fags (even though I was a weekly churchgoer in those days) but because I was an idiot. I eventually grew up and luckily became friends over the years with many people from the community and have never looked back.Last edited by Slap Shot; 03-11-2020, 10:32 AM.

Saturday marks 2 years HRT for me. As long as it's respectful, you can ask me anything you want about the journey.Facebook: bcowles920 Instagram: missthundercat01

Re: Gender Studies I
Things I have learned on hormones:
1. Water weight is a thing, regardless of how healthy one eats.
2. Don't be surprised if you crave weird things. When I first started HRT, I wanted asparagus and a huge bowl of velvety smooth mashed potatoes. I'm still waiting on this!
3. Supreme Cranky ***** can happen at any time and you cannot stop her. Do not apologize for Supreme Cranky *****; they'll never apologize for bringing her out!
4. Random crying jags are a thing, as is being more emotional.
5. I really do want to eat everything. I have leftover double chocolate muffins. **** right I'm going to have another one.
6. So called men who treat me as a fetish ("chasers") are the worst.
7. I really am getting by with a little help from my friends.
8. I was afraid cis women wouldn't want to be around me any more. As it turns out, 99.99% of them have been my sisters, Moms, Aunts...Facebook: bcowles920 Instagram: missthundercat01

“ While 72 percent of women say they have been adhering to health officials' guidance to avoid large public gatherings to curb the spread of the coronavirus, just 58 percent of men say they are following such guidance Meanwhile, 54 percent of women said they are very concerned about the virus compared with just 45 percent of men.”

It's not boy/girl that's dumb/smart, it's right/left.
Of course.
The problems in this country trace back to the same source. In 1980 the GOP became the party of stupid people. In 1994 it became the party of vicious people. And in 2016 it became the party of traitors.Last edited by Kepler; 03-27-2020, 11:25 PM.Cornell University

As an example, consider a replacement of:
"She was an atheist, and with Evangelicals wanting to do away with freedom of religion, she couldn’t go out in public without someone asking her why she didn’t go to church. She couldn’t go out in public without someone calling her a sinner." etc...
with something like:
"Just as she stepped off the front stoop, a tall bearded man whose neck was weighed down by a huge polished chrome cross nearly knocked her down. 'Watch it, *****,' he snarled."
This way your story is developing while you're also filling in the background you want to get across.Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.
