There's No "wrong" Way To Live YOUR Life! The Only Important Thing Is That You Are Happy.

A while back my pharmacist saw my deadname on my profile and accidentially called it out, he corrected and deleted my deadname from the system so only my preferred name shows up now. There was a crowd of people behind me, so as he hands over the pills he apologized, in equal tone and volume as when he called my deadname and lied saying it's been a long day and he didn't mean to call out -his own- name. I quietly told him it was fine and he didn't need to do that for my sake.

His response: "No, it's my name now."

I went to the pharmacist yesterday, his nametag is my deadname. He informed me he's immigrating and in the process he's changed his first name to my deadname to have an English sounding name. That's why he's now able to get a reprint of his nametag to be my deadname. And repeated, with the intense seriousness of someone who is going to die on this hill: "It's mine now. Not yours. I'm taking." His tone indicated that decision is final.

Bro literally deadnamed me once, and has committed to flat out stealing my deadname. It's his now. Legally. Officially. I over heard his co-workers call him by the name.

i forgot to post this but which one of you lame ass nerds works at my dentists old office

More on anti-trans arguments as bad science

I had an amazing Biology teacher who we all assumed was a failed scientists.

He was OBSESSED with mushrooms.

He once randomly whipped out a bunch of champignons that he bought at the supermarket next door and continued yapping about them for 30 mins straight.

Our chapter was the processing of optical signals.

Paleontologist: I became a paleontologist because dinosaurs are cool

Astronomer: I became an astronomer because space is cool

Chemist: I became a chemist because explosions are cool

Archeologist: I became an archeologist because Indiana Jones is cool

Mycologist: I. Fucking. LOVE. Mushrooms.

Paleontologist: Uh…

And oftentimes its actually fun stuff. Like watching a movie ir playing videogames.

people who dont experience it cannot comprehend how awful executive dysfunction is. I WANT to do the task, i have the resources TO do the task, i will feel better having DONE the task

but i cant fucking do the task

Deeply fucked up that this game (real life) forces you to play a crafting mini-game (cooking) every time you want to replenish your stamina bar.

You can skip the crafting game by using a pre-made consumable if you have them on hand, but high level players will constantly nag you about it and tell you that it damages your character's stats in the long run.

Biologist here, it depends on HOW her hair works.

Does it still actively use the light as its power comes from the sun? And if yes, does the haircolor affect the absorbation of the light?Or is it only important that the hair isnt damaged/destroyed.

Lets just assume it can repair itself to a degree (otherwise stuff like split ends wouldve ended it long ago). How far can that go? Cutting seems to destroy it, so lets assume that for some reason, the hairs act like one big cell that gets destroyed by cutting.

Small attacks to its outer side will propably be able to be repaired, however damage that is done on wide areas will propably not be tolerated.

This brings me to the conclusion that stuff like bleach will destroy her power because of the structural destruction. Same goes for perms.

However, if it is true that the hair does not need to actively use the sun, semi permanent hairdye shouldnt be a problem and permanent hairdye could also be fine as long as youre careful and make sure the damage isnt too intense.

Having my nightly ADHD moment so bear with me:

If Rapunzel were to dye her hair, would the chemicals affect the magical properties of her hair?

This is taking into account the fact that her magic derives from the sun essentially, which then becomes a flower. Taking those chemicals into account, if we were to interact those chemicals with the chemicals of hair dye combined with hair as is, I’m just wondering what the effects would be.

I’m no chemist; in fact I almost failed chemistry. So if someone who knows chemistry could help me out here that’d be great!

EDIT: my discord friends are bringing up great points such as hair damage and how it varies.

I just thought about that one time in middle school when two girls tried to bully me by telling me that I was so flat chested my male cousin had a bigger chest than me and I got really happy and thanked them and bragged to my friends about it and in hindsight I don’t know how everyone didn’t know I was trans before I did because I don’t even think I was in the closet, I think I was just staring out an open window thinking no one going by could see me
