I've honestly been chickenshit and kept my head down despite invitations. I know how necessary these protests they are doing are, I've just not gotten to a place where I can join yet. I don't know if my friend who I mentioned was there, I didn't see him, but he's also not replying rn lol

Thank you for sharing this, I've spread it around locally

Holy shit. I know people in that group. I'm kind of surprised it took them this long to do this. One of my buddies has been threatened with revocation of his benefits for past civil bdisobedience. I imagine the 50 or so that made it to the steps are in that position now.

I only watched ten or so minutes of the video, but I don't think a lot of people know what these veterans are risking to make this stand

When I was going through evaluation to start hormonal transition my primary care doc's nurse asked me to explain what non-binary is, and when I figured it out. I explained the things I told the doctor who evaluated me, thinking that if it was good enough for her, it should be good enough for this nurse.

My nurse told me I just hate the patriarchy and that's why I hate myself. Lol

My cats are fed in separate rooms for the same reason. I put a little collar activated flap on one door so the picky one could eat without my youngin sniping her food. He's still trying to figure out how to get in that room, I'm a little surprised he hasn't tried to brute force it yet lol

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Did one of the college interns write this?

I never understood why anyone local drove through it. Tourists I can understand, but it's a drive it once and "holy cow that was a bad idea" experience

I'm a five. Just living my suspiciously round life

Oh, yeah. I didn't mean to imply that getting a job with a disability is easy or that employers actually follow laws. I was more trying to point out that a personality disorder is a disability, because most people won't see it that way

I remember similar articles back in '17 or so, mostly because I reached out to a few friends warning them not to track their periods on apps. There were threats of charging women who miscarry with murder back then, too

My therapist told me that a diagnosis of a mental health disorder means you have a disability*. So if they choose not to hire you because of your ASPD diagnosis, in the US at least, that's discrimination against a protected class. I have AvPD, and that was a concern for me too

*(although many disorders don't always earn the label "disability" when a person is seeking benefits)
