I dunno what state you're in AU but transgender victoria offers good support if you're not in community
took me so long to find community that actually welcomed me

With a therapist, sure, but don't bust in to a public space with problematic harmful shit and expect a pat on the head, a pat on the back as I show you the door maybe lol
You need to reframe this in your head, if you think of yourself as wrong and damaged you'll struggle to find peace within yourself.
you're not damanged because you don't align with cis-heteronormative and white-supremacist ideals, there's nothing about you that is inherently wrong
As an aside, you're body still changes a lot between 19 and your late 20s
it's funny I struggle with a lot of this, but if I see someone remotely like me - tall, deeper voice, body hair -I will fawn over how amazing they are. It's a lot of work to break these old patterns of self disrespect and self loathing
be kind to yourself x
I came out when i was in my late 20s, started hrt a year later, and after 5 years of hrt i still get transpeople asking if I'm going to start, and what I want out of transitioning, telling me 'how feminine' i am.
I did this all on my own isolated and in secret in a conservative community, the first person I came out to, my first openly queer friend, outed me to the jordan peterson fans I was living with (it's so funny, how we don't talk anymore)
I could scream, very grateful to people for constantly reminding me how little some people value me or my experience, they're like: if you don't transition in the womb your a worthless hunk of meat, get srs or you'll never amount to anything
sincerely, read a fucking book, stop browsing 4chan, touch grass
urgh
Lol on closer inspection, is that even the same person?

Yeh that's a yikes from me bud, hold your horses. I can't believe you're foaming at the mouth telling the room
when we get back into power, the swazzies are gonna be blue, and we're coming for you 🫵
you're user name us deICEamerica, and you can't even see you're just like them
The nazis literally march under a red banner lol, they'll take anything
these kinds of actions eventually made the aus govt start building these prisons on tiny islands people gan't get to, which is also not good, but what they're doing isn't going unnoticed even if ive literally never seen it reported
they could simply abolish it
you're very unserious
Why bother connecting with a stranger, it'll only end in sadness and pain
babe, go outside, call your parents or whatever. Life is built on these tiny meaningless interactions.
ps, you will not developda relationship with a sexworker, don't approach things this way, would you build a fantasy life with a waiter or bar tender?
“They said, ‘Well, Saudi Arabia killed a journalist,’ and rest in peace, Jamal Khashoggi. I’m sorry that he got murdered in such a heinous fashion. And also, look, bro, Israel’s killed 240 journalists in the last three months, so I didn’t know y’all were still counting.”
see Dave Chapelle does know how to be funny, shame he's backed himself into a corner, but it's deliberate and he's benefitting significantly
!asklemmy@lemmy.ml - ARE YOU A TANKIE? - informal poll results ~ 2025
😱
This process was undertaken to determine if so-called "tankies" are conspiring to make you (yes, you) have a bad time on the internet!
vague or informal answers were interpreted by the central authority (me). Only top level comments were counted. I did not provide further instructions or clarifications.
spoiler
A ridiculous question. “Tankie” isn’t a term anyone self-identifies with, it’s mostly a term used by liberals to hurl at anyone to the left of them or anyone who agrees with western foreign policy. The survey results will be as meaningless as the term “tankie” itself.
^ wish I'd remembered to include that in the new "poll", there was a lot of confusion in the comments!

ARE TANKIES TAKING CONSPIRING TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BAD TIME ON LEMMY.ML ??
HEXBEAR.NET
DOES THE WORK FOR YOU!!
WE ASKED !asklemmy@lemmy.ml ARE YOU A TANKIE?
First stack of pie charts shows the yes / no split, highlights that the lemmy.ml yes responses made up less than half of the yes votes, hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml only made up a small portion, some hexbear-ians even vote no
second and third pie charts show the yes votes, and no votes by instance respectively
third stacked pie chart shows the yes / no split by instance, overlay-ed with the total yes / no votes
only top level comments were counted
tankies are closer than they appear

this was fun, thanks for the polling idea, Kristina (I spent too long on these charts because yours looked so spiffy, I hope you specifically are impressed lol), solidarity cleaning that data up, and general reminder people only half read anything before launching into a diatribe
tl:dr yes, tankies are totally conspiring to make sure you have a bad time on lemmy.ml

Well yeh okay, that seems interesting, but I'm not going completely to trust anything made by a vemture capital company based in a country which has been supplying military equipment to ukraine. They literally have a vested interest in prolonging the war, it's good for the economy
Think critically, you are not immune to propaganda
