  • As someone who has only begin to transition in adulthood I have begun to look back at my life and childhood. While I certainly had a lot of other traumas that lead to my struggles with mental health I truly am beginning to understand how profoundly negatively impacted my life has been by not understanding my gender identity. The sheer weight of it is like trying to tread deep water for hours with a lead vest. While there are a myriad of difficulties and tribulations that transgender children face that I will never experience, I can’t help but wonder how much different my life would have been if I had access to gender affirming healthcare back then. I would have faced incredibles trials that a child should never have to experience, but I truly believe I would have gotten where I am today much, much sooner.

    No one is advocating for adolescent children to get implants, and gender affirming surgery for children is a controversial topic in the trans community as well. But puberty blockers are completely reversible and very safe, and HRT is most effective and has the best results when administered during adolescence. You aren’t stopping kids from “mutilating” themselves; you’re condemning children to nearly a decade of mental anguish that permeates all aspects of ones life. HRT isn’t just handed out like candy; the getting hormones can often be incredibly difficult and taxing for adults, let alone children. No child gets estrogen or testosterone because it’s “cool” and “trendy” to be trans or because anyone is forcing it one them — it’s nearly always the complete opposite.







  • You bring an ID because you will be peocessed far quicker with an ID if arrested.

    Your arms should be covered anyways but you write your local NLG chapter"s number on multiple places on your body as police have been known to use hand sanitizer to remove it from your arms so you can’t call for help. Writing it in a nonvisible spot like your thigh as well as your arm can be extremely helpful.








  • this disease has rotted this country since before it’s inception. its one of the most devastating forms of ideologocial pestilence the Europeans brought over, and almost every example we’ve seen of it outside of the US was inspired by the efficiency of American hatred.

    Bigotry and exploitation are the foundations of this country, and the US would not be able to exist without it. A utopian future is not one where the US is reformed; it is one where the US no longer exists. In a perfect world it probably would’ve never existed to begin with.



  • You’re wrong, containerization is a massive security measure that shouldn’t be ignored. Proper containerization allows you to segment the namespacing of a single server by user and application; this helps massive with esrablishing boundaries that are still very difficult to cross under normal circumstances. Keycloak is an IdP which only provides one layer of security; good swcurity implements defense in depth where every layer of the system has securiry measures. Just because Linux recently had two vulnerabilities that bypass a lot of those doesn’t mean they’re worthless; you still need initial access to a nonprivileged user to exploit those and layered security can help prevent that from happening in the first place.
