Anyone have good tips on hiding chest growth in a way that isn't stiflingly hot? I'm not too worried about it day to day but this summer I may end up at some family functions with family I have no interest in coming out to and am thinking that hoodies won't work in those temps (I am pretty heavyset so it doesn't really stand out much yet but still.) I might just send it, people are very oblivious, but if anyone's got experience...

hoo boy this hits a little close to home
it's probably like 2 if I'm being generous, I am not full "stalin shouldn't have stopped at berlin" with anyone most of the time unless I'm feeling really spicy. Added bonus I'm queer and semi-closeted too, I'm an absolute mummy of different kinds of masking
Is the issue that you think the headline statement is wrong, or that comparing it to russiagate implies its entirely a fake issue/distraction from the real issues?
because I do think suing an agency that doesn't even legally exist in GOP dominated courts is a waste of time, but not because the shit musk and his lackeys are doing isn't deadly serious, it absolutely is
Thinking about becoming one of those people who gets disgusted and tells ppl to fuck off when they say "god bless" to me
I won't because I mostly hear it from unhoused ppl tbh but people like this guy in the OP.... fuck this guy
getting facts-and-logic'ed into admitting to myself that I was not straight by a like, very overbearing junior or senior, as a freshman in hs.
I just like, wouldn't hypothetically rule out dating my friend or something and I guess lack of visceral disgust was an immediate tell. She was kind enough to not blab about it. I asked if my friend felt the same way eventually, after much prodding from her. It was a no. I think I cried, which was very rare back then. And I told nobody
I am queer as fuck it turns out so ig she kinda nailed it. I often wonder what happened to her, we only really talked for like a few months freshman year but it was a very formative time.
I recently overheard a young guy on a date(?) proudly tell his date that he decorated his new house/apt/whatever with fake plants because he can't keep plants alive
straight up, imagining how utterly infested the world was with tobacco smoke in every public place vs how it is now really gives me some hope for change on other fronts where the bad thing is normalized and it feels immovable
the headline thing in particular is funny because a lot (perhaps the majority) are coming on private carriers. Even the ones that are USPS-delivered are now often using middlemen logistics companies to get it into the US first and then hand off to USPS to avoid paying higher premiums for international shipping
But if it's immediately enforced on all carriers it will grind peoples online shopping treats (and essentials) to a halt which I can't imagine will go over super well
not the same commenter
ohhhh I get it now. Well shit, I'm sorry. I would honestly kill for a place like that. General thrift stores are... uncomfortable for me, and the more hip accepting places still just don't carry anything that fits me
The part where it's "carried over into our modlog" can't be helped, except by defederating or major code changes.
it would be nice to be able to see what comes from our mods/admins vs those of other instances, but currently the anonymization of mod actions is all or nothing. Stuff in the modlog does not entail endorsement from our mods/admins but if its a persistent issue we can nominate instances for defedding.
edit: worth noting that instance admins should still be able to see who did what in the modlog, so we can still hold federated instances accountable for their mods, it just takes someone looking into it
