the green bubbles? they should shoot you out in the direction you're holding consistently, though if you're not using D-pad it can be tough. they recharge your dash too.

I haven't read the book but the more I read about the thesis the more doodoo it sounds. there hasn't been a "revolutionary transformation"... nothing has killed capitalism, it's still just capitalism. seems like distractionary lib shit to say it's actually a secret new thing that's causing our problems.

i would love a sleepy sylveon but it's so hard to nab poke centre stuff, always out of stock:( my Eevee is from build-a-bear, maybe there is knockoffs available of the poke centre ones, I'll have to look around

eevee and smlahaj (small blahaj) (they are friends)

cliche but just go for it and practice until it feels natural to get the shape you want would be my advice. just focus on pulling stray hairs that aren't in the thicker arch part of your brow and you will work towards a natural femme (or just a cleaner) shape. i don't go for the super femme either just clean up the stray hairs. there is videos on how to use geometry and shit to do it the "right" way but i got good at it by vibes based practice and it takes a surprisingly short time to gain confidence. you just have to go for it, the worst case is you overpluck them a bit and they grow back very fast anyway

it's an understandable worry, I don't want to come across as prescriptive or presumptuous but if you're out I would encourage you to use your chosen name and work on confidence in putting forward your actual identity in situations like that rather than leaning on your deadname, feeling like you have to say you're trans upfront etc. I don't know you and don't want to make assumptions but I've seen people who do this stuff in early transition and it often seems to me like a way of undermining themselves. I think the best thing you can do is just roll with putting forward your true self and not make those kinds of concessions preemptively. sure it may lead to awkward situations down the line (believe me I've been there with employers) but I think it's worth the boon in self confidence that comes with fully putting forward your true self and not undercutting.

sorry if it comes across prescriptive or if I made any undue assumptions about you. I just wanna see my trans comrades gaining confidence and to be brutally frank I guess I think putting your deadname and the fact you're trans on a resume isn't really a step in that direction.

yeah I've never had to use govt name anywhere really I think airline tickets is the one exception. even payment info my bank doesn't give a shit that it doesn't match. it feels good to just use your chosen name and you're entitled to so you should:)

i personally wouldn't disclose my legal name until I was like, hired and had to do so for payroll or whatever. your choice but I felt more comfortable just only going by my chosen name immediately when it came to that stuff and wouldn't bother disclosing I was trans at such an early stage of the process either. certainly not something I'd put right on the CV. I don't live in the US so I'm not really familiar with the specific hiring climate you're in though, but I would think that would be an unusual thing to do

don't have high hopes unfortunately. outer worlds was super mid i think this will probably be a bit more interesting but not revolutionary

Liz Franzcak for me lol

so disgusted reading this story today. this man got a fully suspended sentence for pleading guilty (when he initially lied to the cops and said she attacked him, and only admitted it when CCTV footage was produced), and because the judge wants to save his precious army career while the victim has lost her job due to her injuries. he also bragged about beating her on snapchat and the reason he did it is because she asked him to stop calling people slurs. i hate it here
