  • Curious to what your second and third paragraph is referring to. As for the fourth- is there a possibility of that? I see an obsession online with “egg culture” and people fetishizing femboys at time and flirting with themselves. Also the infamous Chris Chan case (although I would be among the first to call out that using Chris Chan as a model for all trans people is MASSIVELY disingenuous.)

    I feel like it’s a topic that requires a lot of research. I find my opinion constantly shifting (although I think as well, opinions aren’t necessarily important anyway, we should be legislating on statistically what is best for woman’s safety and transgender people’s mental health. But we shouldn’t be enforcing that people must hold certain opinions either)

    Starting to think that maybe people from all sides should drop their pitchforks, accept that opinions may differ and it’s okay to feel differently about the subject, but then actually write laws that benefit and keep everyone safe and mentally healthy based on statistics.







  • Duolingo has me caught hook, line and sinker. At first I installed it to see what the fuss was about. Then I got a notification about starting a streak. Thought I’d do it again. Did it for three days and gave up. Then I started getting “streak freezes” added. Next thing I know I was on 7 days. Then two weeks. Then a month. Then six. Then a year. Now two. I cannot bring myself to remove the app or break the streak.

    On the flip side, the language that I’m learning really is a language that I actually should be actively learning (probably more than just Duolingo). But the app has defeated the part of me that would never be bothered to. Sometimes I enjoy it and do a few lessons. But even if I’m lazy, it still makes me do a bare minimum refresher. So I’d actually recommend it if you need to learn a language properly. It really does keep you sunk in during your low periods.

    Although many suggest using it only as a supplement (although I can still say basic phrases with what I’ve learned and I’m happy with my progression in it)
