Why would we want another Twitter? Look at the first one. Screw that. Maybe social media should not exist in that format for a reason.

Sorry I revised my initial message, the regret rate does definitely vary based on study. It does tend to be much significantly lower than other more common procedures due to the efforts usually required to get access to it.

Yeah there are definitely exploitative practices at some surgical clinics. I’m fortunate to live somewhere where the entire process is highly regulated, with lots of signed paperwork and a clearly established step by step process. I know that this varies a lot around the world.

I’m sorry you feel that it eats away at you so heavily, thats awful. Phalloplasty is a surgery that I’m not admittedly super familiar with. And I think where you’re post-op vaginoplasty there are some differences there that would make the surgery unique in its own ways. I’m not sure what exists at the moment though. It would probably be hard to access, as you’ll have to find someone who would be willing to perform the operation at all. It might be worthwhile to contact some phallo surgeons and ask them what they think? Maybe try and reach out via an email or two, they might be able to give you some info.

Bottom surgery is unfortunately not reversible in any way that I have ever heard of. I have never myself heard of anyone who had phalloplasty after vaginoplasty. You’d have to look around for a surgeon who would agree to do it, but as for what results would be like I’m not really sure. That information might be out there, I’m sure you’re not the first person to seek it out but yeah its not something I’ve ever heard much about.

The regret rate for Bottom surgery varies based on the study and the specific question asked. But overall trends show an extremely low regret rate, typically under 1%. I also dont think its a bad thing that your friends were supportive of you getting surgery. If you feel they pressured you to do it so much that you were doing it to satisfy them that’s a different thing but. People should support their friends.

It sounds like you had a lot going on in your life at the time, and still do. I’m sorry you’re struggling. I would encourage you to seek professional mental health care. You’re welcome to post about what youre going through here of course, this community is for you as well. I dont want to seem like I’m just dismissing what you’re going through entirely and like professional mental health care would magically solve everything. I know that emotional support comes from other places as well.

Stay safe sis. Make sure to let someone know where you’re going and put your own safety first. I’m so sorry youve had these experiences. I would just stop using Taimi entirely. I’ve dated men before though and yeah I could go on about all the horrible experiences I’ve had.

Its tough out here. Hope your week is off to a lovely start 🩷

Its just that in doing so you are legitimizing what they say to begin with. By pointing out the contradictions over and over you aren’t actually swaying them or any of their followers. Because they’re bigots. They’re white supremacists. It was never about anything else. They want to deport minorities. They want a white ethnostate.

I just wish we would stop letting fascist dictate the language thats used. We should stop playing into the performance of what they’re doing. Don’t afford it ant legitimacy. There’s no contradiction in their behavior, because nothing they say is real. What is real is their hatred for minorities. What is real is their fascist takeover of the country. And the mass targeting of racialized minorities.

I dont know why they even mention the bit about criminal history. It would be no less heinous if she did have a criminal record.

The people calling for these atrocities and committing them are white supremacists. What is happening is exactly what they want to happen.

I agree for the most part. It depends a lot on what distro youre using, what DE, so on. But you can easily get by on gnome without having to use the terminal much if at all.

You dont have to. But honestly its worth the time to get over the fear of the terminal. Understanding how they work and being comfortable using them has many advantages. So many things do not require a bloated GUI application. Like again its not necessary but its a bandaid that I think is worth it to rip off.

Eye contact with strangers is legitimately almost impossible for me. I look at peoples nose or eyebrows usually if that lol. I actually go out of my way not to look at service workers’ faces when I can manage it. I’ll look at my phone, look at stuff for sale, look at signs, sometimes literally turn the other way lmao or like fuss with my purse or something 😂 even just the thought of it makes me shudder.

With like long time friends and family, I wouldnt say i struggle at all. If I know you well then it doesnt bug me at all.

One thing to bear in mind is that the boundaries between adhd and asd are not super well defined and there is lots of overlap between the two. I am both autistic and have adhd, which isnt uncommon at all.

Ive been to a few before tbh. 10 is gigantic but Ive been in a clothes store that was 5 floors, 4 of which were women’s and 1 of which was half men’s half kids.

The post isn’t about a man, its about a woman. This is her experience with allowing herself to explore her gender presentation.

Yes men are allowed to shop in the women’s section. Men can present however they want to, and in a fair and just world would be allowed to do so without repercussions. This post is in the transfeminine community however and really does not concern men.

How is this a rehash of women be shopping? I’m a woman, I enjoy shopping, am I not allowed to rejoice in that? Or are you saying that transfeminine people must avoid any kind of behavior or preference associated with western feminine gender roles?

What are your favorite keys on the keyboard?

They’re a paramilitary force beholden only to the Donald Trump. They are very literally akin to the SA. No they are not beholden to any laws. They are only beholden to Trump.

Genuine question. How does all of this useless nonsense make them money? Is it all just from loans? Are they just saying “look at all the AI we’re doing” and the investors are just desperate to give them more money?

I just cannot fathom how they profit from all of this. They’re spending so much time doing this. For what? What is the business motive for doing this, if not to get bigger loans from their investors?

I’m guessing this will lead to more things being locked behind their subscription model. Ransoming core features for cash is the standard template of this process.

Kinda. But like, a compression algorithm that isnt all that good at exact decompression. It’s really good at outputting text that makes you think “wow that sounds pretty similar to what a person might write”. So even if it’s entirely wrong about something thats fine, as long as youd look at it and be satisfied its answer sounded right.

Xcancel is an alternative frontend for twitter to specifically avoid having to create an account to use Twitter. Again you could’ve gotten this information with a simple google search lmao “what is xcancel” 😂 there, I even typed it for you.

I also wasnt the person you responded to initially.

I also think that you’re a startlingly uncurious person if doing even a cursory glance at a google search is too much for you. Maybe these kinds of discussions just arent for you to begin with. If you really couldnt care less whether someone is a fascist or not, certainly not to the point of wanting to actually find out for yourself, then yeah maybe dont partake in the conversation.

You’re more interested in defending being lazy than you are in discussing the subject. I’m sure you’ll say something like “its the principle that matters”, which is the most boring possible answer you could give. I’m more than willing to see if someone hates trans people and/or is a white supremacist. I would absolutely prefer to know that so I can avoid them. It took me very minimal effort to find that information for myself. Less than 2 minutes.
