Trans people have always existed and weren't even on people's radar until we became the focus of a "culture war". This is something I denied and battled internally for 15+ years before I decided to actually pursue it; I am markedly less passable as a result, but that's what the "rational" transphobes want right? Wait until you're a fully developed adult before making that choice? I did. My voice might be on the deep end of things, but I get gendered correctly in public by total strangers. So while I appreciate my life being called a trend, I can assure you it's not.

Now, while I worry about my personal safety by way of being hate crimed in public due to some shitty rhetoric; you can keep posting about getting "bullied" online. Hope this clears things up <3

Genuinely I'll give Michaelsoft credit on skipping 9, they did that to avoid SEO poisoning windows 9x variants.

Windows 11 Pro is pretty good!

Windows 11 Home is pretty stinky!

I use 11 for work and 10 for my personal usage still.

You get called out for shitty behavior that can negatively impact people, and are upset that carries consequences. That's not bullying fwiw

You poor thing

Marketing

CE is still used far more frequently than you'd think. I had been phasing it out for retail clients, but one of them had received brand new time clocks that ran CE

That is absolutely a false equivalence

I lived with my partner and her parents for a couple of years. At some point her mom started getting more groceries from Walmart; around that time I started having badddd reactions to the food. She doesn't get groceries from Walmart anymore.

Oh hey that was me for over 15 years!

I'm transfem now and happier than I've ever been.

With all of that being said, feel things out. Gender isn't a race to a goal, it's who you are and what that means for you. It took 3 separate personality crises before working through the fear and anxiety of it all. Even if you're just cis, what's important is that you get to be yourself.

I'd wager it's a solid mix of both. A 6th grade level is probably marginally higher than you're expecting it to be. However, it gets much, much worse than you'd expect in a large portion of the US.

I visited last month and it made me realize just how bad it's gotten. I had it in my head that I was in a reasonably safe area of the US, but it's getting worse. I may have to actually consider the asylum for trans people if it becomes a reality :~;
