Gorgeous! You do the shadows so well!

Where? Genuinely curious

But then they’d have to drive all the way to Illinois or Minnesota to buy their weed

Carmel through Broad Ripple is really nice and totally safe. It starts to get less nice around the fairgrounds and 38th, but at this time of the year, in daylight and in a group, I think it would be perfectly safe

I mean, I suppose so. I can imagine a theoretical AI that isn’t trained on stolen work, isn’t insanely energy intensive, isn’t controlled by the ownership class, and doesn’t hallucinate wildly. But that’s so far away from what AI is in our current context, drawing that distinction feels like losing the forest for the trees, at this point in time.

It was a conscious decision. After the Second World War, the US needed somewhere to shift all of the manufacturing that had been built for the war effort. So cities were deliberately designed to keep houses away from jobs away from shops, so you need a car to get around, inducing a market for the personal car that never should have existed. People forget that before the car, there were cities across America that were walkable and had streetcars. The current state of affairs was never preordained. It’s the result of decades of corporate influence over government decision making.

Quite a lot of people, especially here on the Fediverse. You’d be wise to care too - AI is no friend to the working class.

Neat, thanks!

I didn’t either! ActivityPub came out in 2018, what was Fediverse before ActivityPub?

You should really think through the possibility that once you start estrogen you will not want to ever go off of it, even to regain fertility.

Yeah, that is a concern that I have… maybe it would be better to freeze sperm first, to be on the safe side.

I’ve browsed that document before, but I’ll read it through and check out that channel, thank you!

Everyone I’ve talked to has sung the praises of injections over any other method, so it’s definitely the one I’m leaning toward most

Thank you for such a detailed breakdown! I have my first GAC appointment with Planned Parenthood in a few weeks, so I’ll definitely talk with my doctor and see what they think. I’m more than a little nervous, but I’ve heard they’re really good at the one near me

Thank you! That’s really helpful

Do you need a referral to a fertility clinic where you can freeze it?

And so energy inefficient.

Exactly. It’s an energy conservation measure

Thank you!

Hey, please don’t use ableist slurs. It’s easy to criticize conservatives without doing so.

They say they’re disbanding because they feel that the issue is now solvable via domestic politics. That seems like a good thing to me

Yeah, I didn’t particularly like that doctor. After I had a bad bout of depression, she started treating me like I was an addict drug-seeking, even though I used my meds at work and never used cannabis at work because, you know, rules and stuff.

I have a hard time believing that she was that critical of prescribing to people who use alcohol on a regular basis.
