I think you also may have just convinced me to make a blahaj piefed account lol. I've been thinking about making an alt on blahaj anyway and a lot of these features are super cool.
Honestly though the rust to trans pipeline is so real. I started learning rust around 5 or 6 months ago and realized I was trans within like a month lol.
For anyone who hasn't seen the full version of this here's an update lol.
I think the main argument against that is that if someone is going to follow through with it either way I'd much rather them do so in a painless way with a medical professional and that allows family and friends time to process. Obviously there should be requirements like therapy and stuff first, it shouldn't be the first option presented, but if a person wants assisted death due to a mental illness that will cause them to suffer the rest of their life I don't think that should be treated much differently than a person wanting assisted death due to a physical illness that will cause them to suffer the rest of their life.
Yeah I avoid chocolate as well for that reason (at least the non fair trade/rainforest alliance, those certifications still have issues but at least they're an improvement). Coconut products made in Thailand are also typically pretty bad. Unfortunately at the end of the day it's basically impossible to not consume anything that exploits people or non-human animals at some point down the chain but I do try and avoid the most egregious ones I know about at least.
Do Not Interact
I know the show is very old at this point, but anyone thinking about watching it who hasn't already been spoiled definitely should without being so, it's 100% worth it.

Really I feel like the main problem with the ending was just how rushed it was. Steven and the other gems grappling with finding out rose quartz was actually pink diamond lasted a lot longer, and was also a major part of both the movie and su: future, and in comparison she was way less bad, both by virtue of being younger and also starting the crystal gems. I think given more time it would have been a much more fleshed out arc with a more serious exploration of the diamonds personalities and their remorse, like how the rest of the show dealt with those themes. Like peridot's arc took basically a whole season before she genuinely cared about others, lapis took a while to trust anyone and then had a long arc about abusive relationships and her feelings of guilt, etc. There was a bit of prior development of the diamonds, but only a little, so needing to cram all of that into two episodes was unfortunate. With the rushed ending they were forced into I think it's probably about the best version that could have been done, but I would love to see what it could have been without CN canceling the show.
I don't put any of the blame for that on Sugar or the show though. In the grand scheme of things it doesn't take away from how amazing the entire show was, and not capitulating on the wedding episode was a lot more important than being able to make the finale a little more narratively satisfying.
Edit: replied to the wrong comment lol
Youtube is the one google service I still can't give up lol. PeerTube is awesome, but long-form video platforms feel like they suffer from a lack of content way more than any other social media imo. At least there's newpipe for the time being (except whenever google changes something to screw with them).
Have you tried organic maps as a google maps replacement at all? I've been using it for a while now and honestly it works extremely well most of the time.
Edit: Oh and totally unrelated, but make sure you avoid the website brandalism.ch. It hosts totally unethical content like this: Subvertising Manual. Just a PSA, definitely don't visit the site if you have any bus stops with ads near you, and especially avoid it if you have a poster that you think would be nicer to display there.
Trans person here, Harris sucked as a candidate. Her refusal to take any sort of stance against an ongoing genocide isn't the sole reason for her loss but it was certainly a pretty big factor, alongside all of the other positions she didn't meaningfully differentiate herself from Biden on in an attempt to win over non-existent moderate republicans. I don't blame a single person for refusing to vote for her, no one's vote belongs to a party. Being upset at the people who wanted at least one of the candidates running for president to not be actively supporting a genocide, instead of at those politicians, who were actively supporting a fucking genocide, seems at best misguided.
(Also, of the anarchist/leftist groups and spaces I've visited or been a part of irl, a pretty significant number of the people there have been queer or trans or in some other marginalized group.)
