  • Darlington NHS trust spent £603k on trans changing room tribunal

    Jump

  • Without knowing more, this sounds like a group of terfs managed to bully a trans woman, and the ruling supported it.

    The headline appears to be Daily Mail style angling to make it look as though defending minorities is a bad thing.

    So, all-in-all, pretty much a typical British institutional response to LGBT people :-/

  • Oh lordy ... I'm in torment, my other half is such a bottom and loves to be bossed around in everyday life. But she isn't kinky at all. Like zero :-/

  • We don't - in Spain there's an inspection every 2 years, and it's very basic (like, do the brakes work? Is the engine smoking?)

  • Why is traveling such a big deal for people?

    Jump

  • Yup, as a British immigrant to Spain there is precisely 1 other British person who lives here that I talk to ... most I've met have zero interest in the language, culture, or people outside of touristy things.

    Meanwhile, I'm working in Vietnam at the moment, and my Spanish coworker's who came with me have the same attitude towards Vietnam.

    So, I think most people just aren't interested in the realities of different lived experiences of others. Sometimes in conversation I'll dangle a lure for someone to ask me about an atypical part of my life, and 9 times out of 10 they show no curiosity.

  • Reddit car crains at it again

    Jump

  • Well, it doesn't need signals or crossings because people can cross freely (unlike the US), the traffic speed is lower, and drivers know to look for pedestrians, cyclists and scooters ... but Vietnam does lack decent public transport.

    The flipside is that no part of the older cities is set up for public transport (hell, lots of houses are only accessible on foot or by scooter) and there's little money for putting in infrastructure that can't also help move freight - during rush hour that 10 lane road is 7 lanes of trucks and 3 of scooters.

  • It's bizarre to me that some people don't want to put any effort into their personal safety, regardless of the cause of potential danger.

    I've got used to crossing 10 lanes of traffic, at night, with no street lights or marked crossings, because I'm working in Vietnam and that's just how it is in one particular spot. It's my responsibility to navigate that safely, and part of that is making sure I'm visible.

  • The City of Barcelona traded 3 lanes of vehicle traffic for a green pedestrian corridor. Businesses sued, & eventually won in court. Then they admitted that they actually like the change.

  • Ok, well I hope that works for you, then!

  • Weirdness rule

    Jump

  • I ... don't really understand this.

    I'm unashamedly weird. If someone treats me weirdly because of it, then I know that's someone I don't need to spend effort thinking about (a very handy social shortcut IMO)... if I felt bad because of it, then my weirdness wouldn't be unashamed
