They’re saying “Your passport is invalid (meaning you can’t travel) unless it has a M or F designation.” Meaning they would have to update their passport with the “correct” information. Assuming of course they actually send back the updated passport.

This amounts to a “technically legal” way to confiscate the passports of anyone with a nonbinary gender marker.

I love swimming for that reason yeah. I’d do it a lot more if I had easier access to a pool. I had been looking into places near me to go to but it’s hard to find times that work for it. Might get a little easier once the kids are a little older and we could take them easier.

More importantly though, that’s not being the people in the joke. It might not feel like it, but there is a big difference between seeing someone struggling with a limitation that you also struggle with and offering something that helped you, and someone who has no idea what you’re going through pulling a suggestion out of their ass and making it sound easy. It hits different when your suggestion comes from a place of seeing a shared struggle and mentioning what helped you.

Thanks so much for the kind words. I appreciate it so much. I hope you have a fantastic rest of your day.

This is probably the worst part mentally about chronic joint pain for me. i want to be active, I want to lose weight, but I’m sitting here maxing out what I can physically handle just doing my everyday stuff. On a GOOD day I get about 3k steps in and I’m feeling it for days after. It’s so goddamn demoralizing.

Then in my case I’m also taking care of my partner whose health has been declining and 3 autistic kids. It feels like I’m barely keeping up.

That can’t be right. I swear it was just Monday like 25 minutes ago.

It’s gotta be like… a base meant for training their pilots right? There’s no way they let Qatar just fly even so much as recon missions out of there right? And the main reason they’re letting them build it here is one of those “investments” he keeps bragging about securing, right? I’m not going insane right?

My partner has face blindness, mine is one of a handful of faces that she recognizes on their own because I have a facial feature that’s distinctive enough that she recognizes it. So I am a frequent character in her dreams. Luckily she’s not the type to get mad at me for something I did in her dreams.

I couldn’t tell you exactly what it is about it, but my Gods migraine pain is the absolute worst for me. I could be at like an 9/10 with my joint pain unable to put even a little weight on like my ankle, and that doesn’t bother me nearly as much as like a 7/10 migraine. I imagine it’s probably got something to do with the secondary symptoms and how inescapable the pain is. But I’m not sure. I do know I wouldn’t wish them on my worst enemy though.

I beg your finest fucking pardon. The fuck did I just read? I get why other comments are saying bait.

I’ve done basically full carnivore back when my partner first had bariatric surgery because we don’t have the largest food budget and she needed to avoid carbs while having the highest amount of protein for the smallest possible volume of food so meat was basically the only thing that fit the bill.

What in the frosted mini fuck are you on about?

Nah, Cracker Barrel almost certainly wanted the redesign because that particular sector has been moving trying to avoid the whole “You can tell this used to be a Pizza Hut,” thing for a while.

They want to be able to just open up a store anywhere with minimal investment. Then if their store is super generic it’s real easy to offload the real estate if that location doesn’t work out. It’s easier for another firm to buy the real estate if they don’t have to spend a bunch of money making the former Cracker Barrel not look like a Cracker Barrel.

That’s just Hard Drive Fragmentation. If you went too long without defragmenting your hard drives eventually the computer would start taking ages to open anything because pieces of files would be scattered all over the physical drive platters

To make a double entendre. You can tell from context that the partially redacted sentences say “No fucking way,” and “You alleged pedophile.” But it you look at them without the redacted parts it also says “No king way,” and “You aged pedophile.”

The more time passes the more convinced I am that we actually do live in a simulation. That our reality is some kind of TV drama that was actually supposed to end years ago but now the writers are running out of ideas.

We’re out here doing worse versions of decades old plotlines, the stuff that is “new” feels phoned in, we’ve got this huge cliffhanger in the Epstein files that is probably never gonna get resolved. Really feels like the show ships have ended back in 2012.

I mean I’m shitposting, but still.

I love how these fucking hogs have zero problem lying through their teeth about shit like this. Presumably because in their mind they know the woke Starbucks employee they decided to target definitely did do this at some point and was just never caught. So it’s not that he is lying, he’s just exposing the crime that’s already there and nobody has caught before.

Maybe, wouldn’t something like a Faraday bag work though? Then you don’t even run the risk of someone trying to twist the meaning of whatever regulation might exist to try to charge you with something.

That is a point, could someone even do that on something classed as a phone though? Don’t most places have some kind of law about these devices always being able to reach emergency services like 911?

It seems like it’d be relatively simple for a bad actor to record something and just… wait until you had a data connection though wouldn’t it? Seems like it’d be more secure to just keep there from being any data to send rather than relying on a bad actor not being able to send it. Am I missing something here?

I know that you’re trying to help, and I appreciate the sentiment. But that advice is literally meaningless.

Build a company? Doing what? I’ve got 3 autistic kids with varying levels of developmental disability, a partner who we just discovered has a pituitary tumor that’s causing her to have episodes where she loses large chunks of her memory for hours on end or “just” become so dizzy and disoriented that she can barely walk unassisted, and I’ve got chronic joint pain which makes it to where I can barely manage to take care of everyone else along with myself.

We live off government assistance and my partner’s disability benefits. So we have draconian asset/income limits we have to live within to not lose food/housing money. Like several months ago we got approved for an extra like $300 a month for our oldest because of his disability and we immediately lost roughly $250 dollars a month in benefits. We get in trouble for having more than like $3,000 in assets.

We know a handful of other disabled people in the area and we all try to help each other where we can but “where we can” is very few and far between. We’re all barely holding it together out here as it is. We just don’t have the resources.

That feel when you’re disabled and know it’s happening but can’t do anything about it. You try to find time to at least do something, but it feels like you’ve dumped one bucket of water out of a boat and in the time it took you to do that two buckets worth of water have leaked into the boat.

Good thing I’m only pretending to be an adult with any idea what I’m doing.
