they put my blood through every test under the sun and yet nowhere in the pages and pages of lab reports do they tell me what my blood type is

[json-derulo]

your neutrophils absolute? 2.71. anion gap? why, that's 11! hemoglobin A1C? a solid 5.4. and don't fret, champ—your VLDL (calculated) is a cool 12. real fascinating stuff. hm? what's that? you want to know what kind of blood you have? like, so you won't have to look your next ER nurse in the eye and tell her you have no clue what type you have right after giving her a date of birth that confirms you are over 30 years old? psh, don't be silly! we can't tell you that! it's a ✨secret✨

[json-derulo]

do you know your blood type??

yes, I'm certain of it

I think my family told me what it was but I'm not sure/no recent test to confirm

no, I have no clue

I don't have blood/results

honestly one of the top 3 best outcomes of my transition is that no one gives a shit about me anymore. I don’t get leered at in public (outside of clocking obviously), I don’t get sexually harassed by random men, I don’t get followed on the street or through malls by men, I don’t get called an ungrateful bitch for turning down a date, I don’t get sexually harassed at work or school, I don’t get random unsolicited nudes sent to me, I don’t get men being crybabies about me having a higher GPA than they do or making more money than they do, I don’t get disgusting comments about my body, I don’t get called a bitch or cunt or dyke. All the harassment and violence I have faced post-transition has always been because I’m transgender, not because I’m a man. Being invisible in public (RELATIVE TO THE WOMEN IN YOUR OWN DEMOGRAPHIC COHORTS) is an incredible privilege and I didn’t understand the sheer extent of that privilege until I transitioned. Men talk to me like a human being now! They ask for my opinion, they chat with me, they interact with me like a “normal person.” I became invisible in those interactions because I’m just treated like a person and not like a woman. If anything, transitioning made me hate men more, because it revealed to me how capable they are of talking to other people like human beings and not housemaids they can fuck and abuse.

So like the gall to complain about this is insane. Don’t you guys fucking remember what interacting with the world pre-transition was like? How dehumanised and violated and surveilled you felt? Ok so now imagine that there are still women in the world who experience that all the time. Now imagine there is a group of women who have to deal with all of that on top of also being the focus of a global extermination campaign, who have to deal with all of that sexual harassment AND transphobia AND violence at the same time. You want the privilege of being invisible while ALSO still being the centre of attention? What the fuck is wrong with you?

hey, here's a link to look up your local MP's email to let them know that 1. we want to see the environmental assessment 2. no more data centres until regulatory law catches up.

for those in BC, write to your MLA.

This is an anti-despair checkpoint! You must share something you're looking forward to before scrolling on.

btw it is sexy and cool to uplift and admire people who have skills you wish you had without using their ability as a stick to beat yourself with. even and especially if you are jealous of them.

[bedupolker]

I loooooove getting rejected. People should reject more. It's the "maybes" and ghosting that's just like too much. A firm but polite "no" is infinitely more respectful of everyone's time and feelings. Can we just do that?

You guys know this is a pretty normal human want and not a special accomdation to be saved for people with autism right?

I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.

And there are so many articles and videos and discussions. Like, the scientific community is buzzing about this.

So much research will have to be redone because the data was absolutely compromised, off by orders of magnitude, by using standard lab gloves.

The world is probably not horrifically contaminated by microplastics. Sterile laboratories, however, are contaminated by latex and nitrile gloves.

Thank God someone bothered to check.

I have a wild idea. what if we supported our claims of fact by linking to a reliable source. better yet, what if we went hogwild and just straight up linked to the actual unpaywalled study

Everyone being mad at each other about league operational decisions and developing blood feuds against cities they’ve previously never given a second thought is actually one of the signs of a healthy and growing league
