I think there’s a difference between telling a therapist “I’m trans” vs “I think I’m trans”
A good therapist imo would lay on the questioning if you used “I think” because at that point it’s too early to encourage hormones or anything beyond that. A good therapist would recommend simple things to try out different forms of gender expression.
“Are you sure?” is the most I’d expect from a therapist if you said you are trans tbh
What happens is some kid gets a gossip app which takes their contact data and then uses it to send this shit.
I used to get it pretty often too when I was in school.

$300/p could more or less cover a good chunk of the US population though. It’d be a good start and in theory take some of the stress off of the insurer. Far from ideal but it could’ve been a good step.
You’d think $300 would cover the Dentist, Eye Doctor, and Annual checkups and some cheaper prescriptions. But I will admit idk if the pricing we see is much different from other pricing.

It also sucks if all the content is exclusively paywalled. I wouldn’t know what is or isn’t good without potentially wasting my hard earned money. I can’t even afford rent let alone a series of patreon services. I support creators when I can, but I refuse to be a fucking product for simply being poor.
Idk, when I started Origins I hadn’t played many AC games. So my experience was pretty limited. But I really love Ancient Egypt. I had my problems with the game but in the end I really enjoyed it, Bayek’s story was cool too.
Odyssey lost me by the first big fight. I found the dialogue to be really meh and the romance options to be painfully forced, after hearing the first group of voices along with the first romance option I pretty much went “yeah I’m not playing a whole 200+ hrs if this is the dialogue I gotta tolerate” but maybe I’ll give it another shot once I get through the older games.
Funny, I LOVED Origins but absolutely hated Odyssey and haven’t touched Valhalla
It’s hard to really pinpoint just one game…but I would argue Skyrim is my nearest and dearest. 10k hours of playtime since release, haven’t played for nearly 2 years but I still keep tabs on mods in the event I go back (I will).
I was maybe 12 when I first played Skyrim, roughly a year after it was released and I was enthralled by it. By that age the most “expansive” game I’d played was maybe Minecraft (Beta 1.7.3). I think it might’ve been my first open world game?
Either way, the music, the questing, the exploration and detail in the worlds always held my ADHD brain’s attention well. I saw the flaws, sure. However I thoroughly enjoyed that janky buggy game more than any other thing out there for a long long while.
Right behind Skyrim would have to be Dishonored. It’s actually one of the only two games I’ve gotten a physical PC copy for. But the lore, story, and vibes of the game were genuinely so cool to me. I replayed that and the games sequels several times now.
Minecraft holds a close place in my heart too, I generally come back to it once a year for a nice, lightly modded hardcore playthrough. It especially helps me with creativity, since I get to build something without it feeling like work.
But yeah, Skyrim will always hold a place in my heart, and to a level it even influenced parts of my younger personality.

We def get plenty of good games in a year. But everyone wants to give their money to big AAA devs when the good games are made by small teams.
This year we got (in the spotlight):
Baldurs Gate 3, LoZ: Tears of the Kingdom, Resident Evil 4, and Pikmin 4.
And in the background we got: Turbo Overkill, Have a Nice Death, Pizza Tower, just to name a few.
Maybe take a break from gaming if it’s so irritating, or go back and play some older games. Either way, the overconsumption of people who grew up gaming js unsustainable and it leads to mental burnout eventually. Doesn’t help that most profit comes from multiplayer games, which people continue to actively play while complaining about it as if there aren’t other options.
A self image that has been instilled through years and years of highly targeted, and highly researched ad campaigns.
People “want” these because they believe they need it, because the ads told them they need it. Then the other men who own those vehicles proceed to shit on the men with smaller trucks, and those insecure enough to bend over get the big truck as well.
I don’t see this truck culture in Europe. I don’t see people buying stupid vehicles to go offroading full of expensive gadgets and so on. While I’m sure it exists in small pockets it is by no means the level it’s at here. (In Europe it’s probably more for sports cars anywho)
Point being, no one wanted those SUVs until the car companies told them they want those SUVs.
I’ve heard this plenty of times, but are you using that field? Are you using that forest? This road that road? Are you using the parking lot in Seattle when you live in Georgia?
“We have the space for bigger vehicles” does not make sense when we have to drive farther and farther to reach things that are useful for us. (Also sprawling development destroys local ecosystems, and along with that, natural resources.)
While I would’ve agreed with you a few years ago, it’s just not a realistic thought process when most people live their day-to-day lives in an area about the size of Luxembourg.
Big vehicles are a huge waste of valuable resources that could’ve been used on other things, such as infrastructure, public transport, smaller vehicles. Etc.
They are tricked into wanting big vehicles.
Never too late to learn how to read 🤷♀️
