Isn't that only like $20? :one quick google search later: It's like $110k.

Well okay then! Fuck it, consequence free speech all around! I can't believe it took you, a convicted child rapist with a bum leg and glass eye, to convince me. ^/s ^obviously

Agreed, it's mind-boggling that they couldn't manage after such a long time.

Not pressuring the Afghani government into releasing ~5,000 Taliban fighters as part of the pullout would have been a good start if I'm being honest. Donald "Art of the Deal" Trump himself basically sentenced that country to die when he agreed to those terms.

I agree that it's a sad state of affairs that the military and government caved so quickly. 20 years of help and they couldn't manage to stand up on their own, all things said and done. Not calling you wrong, but the way we left was a disaster, and honestly we should have reneged on the deal once Biden took office and found a better way to transition out of the country.

Thank you for this

Nah, it's just all you tankies have. You'd be okay with everyone in the US suffering and you use Gaza as a silver bullet, despite it being one of many issues that we are voting on.

I'm also gonna go ahead and just preemptively block you. There's no substance to this discussion and there never will be since nuance gets lost over the shrieks of whataboutism and doing nothing until we're in a do-or-die election. Show me this support year round and vote locally and I might think you're trying to help instead of acting like a bot trying to astroturf and make us hate Kamala.

Grandma should be taken off life support.

This rings so true with me and my experiences too. I didn't start transitioning until I was 33 because of this stigma, and I have similar problems separating reality with this perverted portrayal of transness I grew up with.

This post makes me feel a bit better and a little less alone. Thank you for taking the time to post it. I love you, stranger on the Internet. I'm happy you've found yourself.

Hey! Actual trans person. I want to start by saying please use Transgender, not transexual. It's a dysphoria around gender and the outdated transexual term ties it to sexuality. In reality, those are very different, even if they may be closely associated in general thought.

Some of what you are describing you did when you were younger was exploring your gender. I personally think that's great, and I think everyone should at least ask themselves how they feel about their identity and try things out if they find themselves curious. Like you, they might not find that they are trans and that's ok! That actually happens a lot, though most cis folks don't tend to question or think about their gender much.

As for me, when I was a kid, I just felt wrong whenever I was strongly gendered as male. I felt how you feel about your masculinity when I could get away with feminine choices. The Internet was an escape where I could be anonymous and I clung to it since it let me be more myself. If you'd like to learn more or learn signs that you or others might be experiencing gender dysphoria, I highly recommend https://genderdysphoria.fyi.

L take. I agree it's behind modern image manipulation software, but it does almost everything that Photoshop did in the early 2010's at least. It's considerably better than current-day paint.

You're full of enough hot takes to melt steel. Phobia means extreme aversion or fear. Your assertion that something does not exist does not mean it does not exist.
