What app do you use? Last I checked, pronouns are part of display names for Hexbear users. You shouldn’t have to check profiles. That’s the whole point of them being included in display names. Your app would ideally just respect display names and it would require no extra effort on your part to gender people correctly.

Look at your bodies, women! You eat and breathe from the same hole, so food getting stuck there kills you. Your reproductive and waste areas and directly next to each other, which leads to unnecessary infection. You lack the ability to biosynthesize various necessary vitamins, so rely on internal bacteria to produce them for you, risking deadly infection. Your eyes have a blind spot and are not optimized for seeing through air nor through water. A loving and intelligent god would not design you this way. Please understand that your unnecessarily complicated feet are not a sign that you are “intended” for anything, let alone patriarchy.

We evolved to enslave cows and chickens! It’S ScIEnCE!!!

Best of luck. It’s slow but you’ll get there

Like in the early stages of burnout for me, even getting up off the couch to go to the bathroom was a struggle. And for me, this was my first big autistic burnout, which meant that I needed to reorient my relationship to work, play, and self-care to make sure I was doing all of them in a sustainable way. But in the beginning, that meant if I couldn’t do more than 5 minutes of a task, I wouldn’t beat myself up. But starting with that 5 minutes was a way for me to push myself just a little. Because the normal advice is “let yourself relax” and that advice just didn’t work for me. For one, I didn’t have the support to be unemployed for long periods of time. And for two, being depressed and laying immobile on the couch wasn’t relaxing in the first placed. I was just stressed while appearing relaxed. So getting back to doing things was my way out. And so I built up a tolerance for that and slowly built up the ability to do things sustainably while also pushing through the burnout to survive, which made it last longer. But eventually the sustainable stuff won out. I rest more than I used to and have a better relationship with breaks and self care but I’m working full time in my field again and pursuing betterment both in and outside of work. That said, I work in a job where I can flex my hours and take the breaks I need pretty much at will as long as I let my coworkers know and get my work done. I’m aware I’m very lucky to be able to do this and that it’s not a universal solution. But I’m just trying to be as honest as possible about my experience.

I originally came across that idea from someone on TikTok who was studying burnout for their doctorate. But I can’t find them now. The closest I could find for you in terms of a citation was this:

Evidence suggests that [burnout] has relatively high stability over time, with studies showing that physicians who score high on burnout assessment at one point in time tend to continue to do so at subsequent points, at least up to about 3 years.

Edit: I’ll say that in my experience, this timeline is for full recovery, not for reaching the point where you can sustainably work again. One thing I got told that helped me was to plan out in detail what I think my daily schedule would look like outside of burnout and pick one thing to focus on starting to do 5 minutes at a time. And that looked like me literally quitting halfway through cooking instead of pushing myself to finish sometimes. The exhaustion is real but if you don’t have any other major mental health factors (like if you’re in your early 20s and this is your first major autistic burnout for example) then getting back to where you were is realistic.

Is it possible you burnt out at your old job? That takes years to recover from properly and takes a lot of radical self acceptance and being okay with rest

I have every gog installer I’ve ever downloaded for this exact reason. You can’t rescind the bytes that are already on my drive.

My old senior used to do this before he got laid off and now I’m charge of code that’s littered with old commented out code and no way to know why it was commented out.

Linux installs have gotten so quick and painless over the past decade or so. Usually just following a GUI, waiting like 5 minutes for the install, and suddenly you’re booted into a fresh desktop.

It’s not as close to an exact quote as I thought, to be honest, but I stand by the sentiment that the statement was unsupportive of the trans community.

My espresso has arrived. Clinton asks for more iced tea. I cannot allow the lunch to end without questioning the direction of her party. I say that Democrats seem to be going out of their way to lose elections by elevating activist causes, notably the transgender debate, which are relevant only to a small minority. What sense does it make to depict JK Rowling as a fascist? To my surprise, Clinton shares the premise of my question.

“We are standing on the precipice of losing our democracy, and everything that everybody else cares about then goes out the window,” she says. “Look, the most important thing is to win the next election. The alternative is so frightening that whatever does not help you win should not be a priority.”

From an interview with the Financial Times

I’d note 4 things:

1. The question is obviously heavily framed as an anti-trans question
2. A lot of right wing news outlets reported the initial question as if Clinton herself was the one who said it, which isn’t true.
3. Most non-right-wing outlets didn’t mention the context that she was responding to a question about trans people at all
4. She never retracted or clarified her statement after the fact

Why subtweet Hillary Clinton on this one? It’s almost an exact quote.

Is there a non-sexual way for that to look cozy?

Seems like stealth checks at higher levels could alter DCs for this phenomenon

Several reverse image searches and searches of the text have yielded little to nothing useful. Just looks like a meme someone threw together as a joke.
