  • Remember that each woman has a different experience. Some women have such a light period that they only notice it because they find spots in their underwear. On the other hand, a woman with endometriosis will probably start being in excruciating pain the day before the period starts and will know exactly how long it lasts.

    Source: I know someone with endo. She also has a resistance to at least one OTC painkiller because she used to pop those things like candy. And a female coworker of hers (with a very light period) thinks that most women are exaggerating and that periods aren’t much of a problem…

    Gender?

    Present.

    Sex at birth?

    No, my first time was well over a decade later.

    Are you trans?

    Transtabular, from your position.

    Are you gay? Bi?

    I prefer professionalism to gaiety during interviews. This meeting isn’t over yet.

    Ever been depressed?

    Not in the button sense, no.

    Abuse alcohol? Drugs?

    Neither physically nor emotionally. No, thank you, not now.

    Ever been arrested?

    Have you been?

    Ever been in the military?

    Even if I was, you’re not getting veteran’s benefits through me.

    Well what about your spouse?

    Even if they were, you’re not getting veteran’s benefits through them.

    Ever work for the government?

    Why, are you paying public service rates?

    That degree you mentioned, we can’t ask your age but uh, when did you earn that bad boy, huh?

    I think it was sometime around when I graduated from college.








  • That’s why I’m going to vote for a party I don’t believe in. Normally I would vote for one of the parties I do believe in and help them build momentum on their path toward 5% – but with the AfD on the rise and the Union blatantly putting personal opportunism over the interests of the country, I can’t afford my vote to not count.

    Once more I wish we had a preferential voting system so people can vote for who they believe in and fall back to a less preferred alternative if necessary.





  • Depends on how the war goes. Nobody uses nuclear weapons as a first response but they’re always there as a reminder that if my country goes down, so does yours.

    Besides, intercontinental force projection becomes a lot more complicated when your opponent has the ability, theoretical or not, to sink entire carrier groups at once.

    I think it’d be more likely that Trump would get immediately kicked out of office if he actually managed to start a war with the EU. There’s a limit to how stupid the GOP is willing to be for him.

    Counterproductive policies that can be used to pocket some more money? Sure, why not. But a war that threatens to fuck the economy, dramatically curtail international trade, and probably hand global hegemony over to China? Too risky for too small a reward.





  • Windows 360¹ will cost 30 bucks a year (adjusted for inflation) and will automatically upgrade you to the latest version of Windows as soon as it comes out. Additional benefits include improved security by blocking non-Store software and having your OS settings managed by Microsoft – Windows 360 will even automatically restore them if they should end up getting changed, e.g. if Recall somehow ends up disabled.

    ¹ Not to be confused with Windows 365, which is an entirely different thing.
