I am not trans, but I will say that I think you should move to a more accepting area first. We would be thrilled to welcome you as whichever gender identity you'd like to be here in the Bay Area.

Best of luck internet friend.

JS Bach.

The only two I would consider otherwise are both alive (Lindsey Stirling and Amy Lee). They even have a collaborative piece 🎉

Our Golden taught himself medical alerts. My wife broke her ankle when he was 6 months old, and the little glue puppy who followed me when I gave her meds started to let her know ahead of time that she would need meds, and even proactively bring her pill bottles.

Some refinement let him proactively stop mom from overdoing it, so he's been instrumental in her recovery and PT.

Then like six months ago he started giving me pain alerts from no where when I was feeling ok. But invariably, every time he did, 30-60 minutes later I would get a headache. So now I just listen to him and my bad headaches have dropped to almost zero, because I'll take some coffee and NSAIDs when he alerts.

He also broadly gets the concept of "pills make people feel better in a little bit". He'll stop alerting for about 20 minutes if you take pills (or pantomime taking pills because you're busy or something). Then if you faked him out he'll alert again in 20-30 minutes lol.

He's one of the smartest dogs I've ever met in the "cause and effect generalizes to X" sort of way. (He also is super confident and pretty sure that the world is made of sunshine, rainbows, and friends so is conversely really dumb in risk assessment, like will fall off the bed because he's sure he'll be caught kind of way)

Our Golden will actively watch Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Dragon Prince. Full on watch the TV. (And nature documentaries).

Most other shows he doesn't really care one way or the other for.

The problem is that there isn't an equivalent for any sub I use on Reddit.

Serious, like Politics?

Technical, like programming or SpaceX?

Pop culture, like MarvelStudios?

Games, like TheSilphRoad?

Pets, like goldenretrievers?

Found programmerhumor... But that's it.
