I’m going to try to touch grass, exercise and read some books.

I had influenza b for two weeks and got so sick. All I did was lurk the internet and it’s been really bad for mental health.

You’re not it’s climate change

My partner had used wise to buy reproduction goods from China. Worked and got the stuff but our bank kept trying to block it early on.

Probably one of those things on the books to discharge specific “problem” individuals rather than large groups.

Sometimes ethanol gets abbreviated to EtOH (Ethyl and hydroxyl group). Which is longer to say but more satisfying than Ethanol.

People were pretty messed up about Obama when he was running (and he had no other aspirations other than becoming king of the establishment ghouls)

Incumbent Eric Adams is running as an independent too

Ooh berets

I may have gone overboard buying cute girl hats, but the logic I have is that’s my head is the one part of my body estrogen won’t really change. So I can invest now.

I actually didn’t like my name growing up, because people would go “isn’t that a girl name?”

So I kind of grew into it.

I have a gender neutral first name, so my legal name change was just dropping boy middle names, I didn’t add anything because a bunch of my documents didn’t have those middle names anyway.

Yeah it certainly is silly.

I remember a story she’s ago about a cis woman who was accidentally assigned male at birth and her parents were functionally illiterate and didn’t notice so as an adult her birth certificate said male and her red state wouldn’t let her change it because they kept assuming she was trans.

Oh that’s a better dream than any of mine

I also had a dream last night that they made a voiced, graphics and AI updated, VR version of Morrowind and it was really unpleasant because it was basically just Dunmer racially harassing you non stop.

Yeah I’m AFAB. Assigned female at bureaucracy because my paperwork came back

There is definitely an association with skin pigmentation and skin cancer (and rickets the opposite way). But skin pigmentation is not why colonists are bad, the colonialism is. There are dark skinned Israelis and light skinned Palestinians (and Lebanese and other middle eastern minority national groups).

There are also places in the low latitude Southern Hemisphere (Parts of Africa, South America, New Zealand, Australia) and high latitude North America (Canada, border US states) that are perfect for white colonists “genetically”, they still shouldn’t be there.

Finally while middle eastern and South Asian people may have a lower pre-disposition to skin cancer, they still get skin cancer, but material factors like the clothing they wear and the hours of the day they work affects this too. An Israeli doing a 9-5 going in and out of AC controlled buildings in a t-shirt and shorts is going to burn more than a Palestinian wearing a headscarf, and long sleeves and pants, taking a break to rest inside a traditional house at the middle of the day when it’s hottest and the UV is worse.

(also I imagine skin cancer is also under treated in Palestinians due to significant shortages in all medical care)

That was very Dorley Hall I feel.

All the land we stole and murdered for sucks.

I mean lots of it was very nice land managed by the original inhabitants in ways that adapted to the climate and conditions. It mainly sucks for colonizers because they tried to basically just transpose their western methods of construction, farming and civilization in general onto the new territory.
