One investor, who spoke anonymously with the NYT, says that a “big chill came across Silicon Valley” as stories about sexual harassment and assault at tech companies became public. They claimed that people were now canceling networking meetings and even casual coffee dates with women and minorities, because there is…

Yeah, I know Sandman isn’t the be all, end all, in the arena of transgender people in literature, but it did show the horror of what happens when we die and our family then strips away our gender.

I’m really anti gun, but I have to admit there is a lot of hearing loss with folks that shoot for sport. Some EU countries actually require sound dampening/silencers, if I recall.

For physical stores, Nordstrom’s Rack carries small sizes and giant sizes. My husband and I are on both sides. He’s a giant and I have trans guy kid-sized feet. Payless Shoes also does well for smaller sizes because the adult shoes bleed directly into the boy shoes. Ross occasionally has smaller sizes, and weird…

Yeah, unless you get married, and then it’s a de facto life long ban.

Same. My husband and I donated blood for 25 years, then I transitioned. Now same people, same relationship, can’t donate because we are both dudes now.

“To turn the gesture of sending young students some books into something divisive is unfortunate, but the first lady remains committed to her efforts on behalf of financially well off children everywhere,” she said.

I am old enough to remember those Terminator movies. To say that Linda Hamilton’s character was not created with the male gaze in mind is dumb. She didn’t get a freaking bra in her tank top. When I left theater, I was surrounded by teen boys that talked of nothing else.

• If your hat has any ornamentation—feathers, pins, etc.—men should always have it on the left side of the hat. For women, the ornament should be on the right side of the hat.

It’s about seeing if any of them take the bate, and refuse to make the cake.

I thought that woman in the video was going to give that guy whiplash when she was distributing the product.

I’m not really worried about my cell phone number being on a tag with my keys. It’s a cell, so it’s not attached to any particular region. Mine in particular is from my home town, which is not where I live.

Not my artist. I used to work in a tattoo shop. Both myself, my husband, my favorite artist, and all of our friends are covered over the majority of our bodies.

I’ve never had a tattoo take seven weeks to heal. Neither has anyone I know. Most skin abrasions don’t take that long to close.

A recent study pointed to tattoo inks endings up in your lymph nodes. Not harmful, but you might keep it in mind if you are tattooed and getting any scans. Not all physicians are up on this, and it’s good to make sure they know and double check before deciding you have cancer.

That is a weird oversight.

The problem is you never know when you are around someone with a compromised immune system. Grocery store, gas station, the mall? You could still be passing it on to people that it can kill.

When I was younger I watched lots of independent art films. I couldn’t get enough. As I’ve gotten older, I realize that a lot of them are not “smart”. They are just badly articulated ideas. The ones I am still fond of had interesting themes, but overall I avoid films like this now.

Because of course there is a rape scene. . . not seeing it.

When I transitioned female to male, the bathroom thing that shocked me the most is how much shitting goes on in the men’s room.
