It’s a bit different with trans identities. Like Trace and Jamie have said, it wouldn’t be as much of a sore point if trans actors had the same opportunities to play cis roles since ‘it’s called acting, you should be able to play roles that aren’t your lived experience’. But they just are not being given those…

Lol, I initially read that as ‘praying for an abortion’

It would be called “Gayer Gender”. You know how drag queens love name wordplay.

Honestly I’d probably feel more comfortable with just having an open relationship than my partner fucking a robot.

I also checked the Whole Foods website and they do sell a vegan mayo, it is specifically labelled as ‘Vegan Mayo’. Hopefully that js what you have been using!

I’m in Australia, so I don’t know if things are different there.

I was thinking young Rob Lowe!

I’m glad someone else sees the sex joke potential of this story. My family looked at me real weird when this story was on the news and I muttered “I wish his dad had pulled out”

I once met a man from Iran who had happened across an LGBT parade we have in Sydney. He proudly told me there were no gay people in Iran, then was completely baffled when he saw his flag on a float depicting countries where homosexuality is illegal and often harshly punished.

I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about Trump’s statement the other day on autism awareness. It was pretty cure-focused, and pretty negative in general.

For some reason my favourite thing about that photo of Hillary with that woman in the woods was the realisation that Bill must be the one taking the photo. I bet that happens to him all the time now, haha

I don’t think the androids are aware of being part of a storyline. I think they probably carry out their stories and interactions whethet a guest is watching or not.

Sharon is married now! I met her, her husband, and Alaska when they were touring in Melbourne a few months ago. They seem like they’re all good friends :)

I’m Australian, live in Sydney, and have been following the U.S. election avidly. I’m traveling to the U.S later this month and will be in NYC over election night. Any recommendations? Good election-viewing parties I should try to get invited to? Do you guys use election night as an excuse to get shitfaced like we do…

If this ever happens to me I’m charging visiting friends and family $5 each to hold my baby

I went and got my masters degree in Speech Therapy after meeting an awesome little girl with autism at the daycare I used to work at, and becoming close with her family. Now I’m about to start my career working in early intervention for kids on the spectrum. Highly recommend

Swiddles, obvs.

SAME

Yeah I emitted a loud, involuntary ‘NOPE’ when I read that. I think the person sitting next to me on the bus was a bit startled.
