I guess I'm bi now???

That book is great.

She will never be that "old." She has the heart, soul, and energy of a 30 year old.

This is a top tier Trek meme.

Now do the other series.

We will watch your career with great interest.

First Robot Teenage Werewolf President

I'm ready to serve.

I'm a similarly aged and gendered human.

There is research out there somewhere that confirms the commenter's memory. I can't find it on a whim unfortunately, I'll post if I can find it. From what I recall from the research (I'm sure I'm butchering it): In the 80s and 90s trans people were a lot more accepted. At some point when certain monied bigots saw the writing on the wall that they were losing the fight of gay and lesbian hate they started a campaign to vilify trans people.

Yes there were always assholes and prejudice, but it's only in the past 20 years that trans hate became a calling card of demagogues. It really was more accepted in the 90s.

In no way do I want to minimize the awful way trans people are treated, regardless of age. I'm just trying to remember some research I read once.

I am libertarian-ish, but generally don't like all the loud libertarian nuts (I register Dem and vote Dem because the things I care about aren't represented anywhere on the ballot anymore).

For me, it comes to a very simple economics truism: Governments are pretty damn inefficient and tend to waste a lot of money because of the process and bureaucracy. Markets on the other hand, tend to be really efficient at allocating capital when left alone. The times a government should step in is when the market has created a form of externality that breaks things. The old economics example is the people downstream from a chemical plant are paying the price for the plant's pollution.

From a libertarian lens:

  • The government should negotiate SPH b.c. it's obvious that markets failed and we'd all be better off (spend less money) if everyone had healthcare.
  • The government should stay out of people's bedrooms and love lives, it has no business there.
  • The government should use UBI and then eliminate every other deduction, and tax break, and subsidy (Social Sec, . The office running UBI could be one guy sending checks out once a month (exaggerated obvi)

Unfortunately the things I'd like to see from a libertarian don't actually show up.

My oddly niche fetish is a split screen of reaction of women at the exact moment of entry during anal.

All started with this BRCC classic: https://www.redgifs.com/watch/forsakenmagnificentfish

Basically BRCC is the only thing that scratches that itch.

PLOT TWIST: I have IBD. (really)

There are two types of men, men that like pegging and men that haven't tried it yet.
