@Cozy @mcc it's not a computer unless it has at least 2 USB ports. If it has only one, then it's merely a telephone.

@The_Whore_of_Blahbylon @Jennconspiracy - NO. NO NO NO., You go to your room until you think about what you've done.

Moderation should be aggressive and ruthless.

Err on the side of caution that reduces the most harm because bigots thrive on being given second chances.

Woke up today and WE HAVE AN ANSWER TO MY CHRONIC COUGH as well as another symptom I have that causes violent coughing.

I took a barium swallow test back on Friday, and the results show that there's "liquid penetration into my vocal cords." This matches with another symptom I've had of "a drip I can't swallow."

They're suggesting I see a speech therapist to finally solve this.

Finally, an answer. Now for the pinched nerve.

Any trans Kansas US citizen should, if able, obtain a passport reflecting their lived gender. The gender on your birth certificate or driver's license is irrelevant for passport purposes. The passport can be used in the place of the birth certificate in nearly every way. It can be used in place of state ID for nearly everything except demonstrating driving privileges. For instance, it can be used to prove lawful right to work in the USA.

There should be a Bedchel kind of test for the use of alack without also mentioning alas.

A great example of how to handle a trans character:

1. Deadname is left as jibberish to prevent its use by assholes

2. Deadname does not hold power over the character

@j4yc33 @superlinguo - I remember the secretary who called me at Dell support for the same thing. Two years of research on one failed hard drive and she demanded that we not only fix her system (we did), but demanded we restore the data on the new drive (it's toast lady) then demanded that we return the bad drive so she could recover it (it's long gone lady) and then threatened to sue me specifically for hindering government research (if you were a government agency (and you weren't), you called into the wrong line).

Literally the last call I took at Dell as I was laid off that afternoon along with the rest of the folks who started with me.
