I changed my name as I didn’t like my birth name much. Also, I transitioned. However, if people change their names multiple times in a short period it does get tiresome - I thought about it beforehand so I knew it was right and wouldn’t change soon. I do not respect company name changes

Just remap it back to control

It’s encouraging that these sorts of signs are being seen across the US.

And quartz, of course.

I didn’t chew them, but I used to pick them with my fingernails. Painting them helped because then I would ruin it if I picked at them. Also fiddling with something else helps to occupy my hands.

I call my parents ‘Mummy’ and ‘Daddy’ to their face, or ‘my mother’ and ‘my father’ to others, unless they specifically ask what their name is. I call my grandmas ‘Grandma [name]’, and my grandfather by a cultural title. Aunts and uncles I call ‘Aunt [name]’ to differentiate them. Siblings and cousins I call by their name.

Now that’s a shower thought I like!

It did, didn’t it?

I seem to constantly interact with people decrying the ‘transmedicalist perspective’

I think that gender dysphoria is a mental illness, as it causes mental distress if not alleviated with transition, but that it’s not shameful to have it any more than it’s shameful to have autism, conversion therapy has been scientifically proven not to work, and just as people with diabetes manage their condition with insulin, transition is the best way to manage it so people with it can live happy lives.

Wow, it’s been a bit of a while since I last ate a sandwich! It was between two slices of wholemeal bread, with hummus as the spread, and sliced cucumber and tomato. I rather I enjoyed it.

Fake vacuum decay

I know everyone on Lemmy hates LLMs, but analysing large amounts of text to fond inconsistencies is actually something they’re good at. Not correcting them, of course, that can be left to humans. Just finding them.

It shouldn’t have a background color, it should be a transparent background for an svg

It’s been a tradition at least since the Korach sandwich eaten at Passover for millennia.

Oh, I thought a toad and frog were synonymous in English

A land turtle.

Or a shield frog depending on your language.

If I’m not helping, I imagine there must be some unmentioned factor, such as someone pointing a gun at me and telling me to do that otherwise bad things would happen to me. Or I was slipped some drug that forced me to be a sadist. Without any other factor, I don’t imagine myself doing that at all in the first place.

Edit: Also, the tortoise lies on its back, not lays

My moral values, such as valuing reducing suffering as far as possible, qualify I suppose.
