Like someone else said, if you can see a therapist about this, that's your best course of action. And a pro tip: If you don't "vibe" with your therapist, it's completely okay and recommended to find one that you do vibe with.

That being said, this sounds like anxiety. It sounds like it's definitely being caused by gender dysphoria.

Dysmorphia is when your body feels wrong. It can cause dysphoria, but not all trans people experience it.

Oof.

Until we start? We have. It's not something that happens overnight. You're saying you're not my ally until I'm winning, and that's not the high ground you think it is.

And as far as whining... Look at my post history before you call me a whiner. I have little to no disillusions about my country.

This edgelord internet routine plays right into the authoritarian's hands. Build bridges, not walls.

It won't be long before they're saying "Just trust that he knows what he's doing. He works in mysterious ways!"

It's about that, too.

This is exactly how my meth head sister raised my nephew.

Freak out and punish him, assign him chores to "get out of it," and then let him off the hook when she wanted to fight with her husband. But always kept the threat of punishment looming.

Cool.

I think some of you guys are reading way too much into this.

Trump is having a dick measuring contest while Xi is letting him fuck himself.

We rely on China more than they rely on us. Think about how obsessed we are with low prices. Trade with China brings our average prices on goods way down. China also trades with the rest of the world, and they know they can weather a trade war with the US.

China is the next world leader unless the West can somehow right the ship. WW3 is going to be about who becomes the next Economy and de-facto world leader.

For anyone who needs to hear it: Authoritarian states do not think like people, they think like empires. If you were an empire, would you take advantage of the current climate?

Disclaimer: Both China and the US are authoritarian states, strictly speaking. But the State is not unified under Trump currently, so we're seeing a combination of thinking like a state and thinking like a person coming from the US, depending on the source.

Dude... This rabid anti American shit is getting old.

You're on a social platform with like-minded people who are all potential targets for this administration's horse shit. Few, if -any- of -us- voted for this. We are Americans, but we are also, very likely, -your- allies.

If you just want to be mad and demonstrate how in-control of your emotions you are, go on. But what's happening has global ramifications. Maybe don't dunk on those who are fighting it from the inside.

We're about to have a third world economy. Good luck with that.

Tapped the title to read the punch line.

Saw no punch line.

Re-read the title...

shame

Is that Etna from Disgaea?

If they didn't want to go to prison, they shouldn't have stolen the candy bar. FAFO! Also I hate authoritarians. FREEDOM!
