My job isn’t incredible, but the insurance is decent. For me, the copay is $25 a visit, and it’s BCBS, so almost everyone takes it. So I recognize I’m lucky in that sense. But yeah, I was able to find an LGBTQ-affirming practice, and I was actually able to follow my therapist when she briefly changed practices, and my insurance worked the same.

Where you’re located makes a huge difference though, I know there are a lot fewer options out in the country than in a more progressive city

If you’re in the US, does your insurance cover therapy? Many do. A lot of practices also have sliding scales if you don’t have insurance and have a hard time paying out of pocket

Fr. I’m just as worried about AI and automation as anyone, but it’s amazing how fast people were to come up with a slur for robots. I don’t think it’s a good impulse

Throwing trans people under the bus isn’t going to get the Republicans out of office. The Democrats in NC who caved on trans rights just got walloped in the primaries. Even if you don’t care about trans rights (and I think we should all care), trying to chase the mythical moderate like this is not an effective strategy to getting elected.

So we’d better get on with saving ourselves

Gorgeous! 😍

Thanks! 💕

No, autocorrect usually changes a hyphen to an em dash for me

Thanks! And so far, I feel really good 😊 my mood has definitely been up, but that might just be because I’m excited and the weather has been really nice

My friend and I bought weed once when we were 17, but we never got the chance to smoke it before a third friend ratted us out. I started drinking alcohol and smoking weed a year later when I got to college.

Huh, the more you know.

Is Monero as environmentally destructive as Bitcoin? It’s not something I’ve ever looked into

I will use them and not feel bad about it. I will not let AI take them from me

Fuck off loser

Thank you 😊 I’m incredibly lucky to have the partner that I do. After some initial shock and adjustment, she’s been so so supportive, and that’s been so important

Thanks! ☺️

Congrats! Good luck to us both!
