I just recently switched myself from a crusty old Motorola to a Pixel 7.

Only thing I hate is material you, which isn’t a grapheneOS specific thing so I don’t fault them for it. Otherwise I am enjoying grapheneOS so far.

I’m using connect and it shows me both on the main page. It was actually the second image though that caused me to click through lol.

it feels like you are being lumped in with the worst of menkind for no good reason.

Before I realized I was trans I also got super upset at being lumped in with bad men (although with an additional different reason that I didn’t understand at the time), and that feeling is absolutely terrible, because you’re basically getting shit on just for existing.

From my perspective as a woman it seems like there are a lot of shitty dudes out there. After I realizing I’m trans it became a lot easier to notice misogyny since it now affects me. I did notice before, but when something affects you specifically you notice it a lot more. I also didn’t fully understand how weak women are compared to men until I started taking estrogen. Just being near a man I don’t know well or at all is very scary because of how easily he could overpower me.

If I am getting a random bear vs a random man I would definitely take the bear just because I feel like the risk of getting a bad man is too high. If I could pick a specific man, I definitely would pick my father or a friend because I know they are good men and I feel safe around them.

I think some outrage could have been avoided if the question was worded just a bit better, although I think part of why it got so popular is because of the outrage it caused.

I’m also ex-catholic. I left about 6 or 7 years ago, I don’t remember exactly when. For most of those years I’ve been an atheist and didn’t want anything to do with religion or spirituality at all.

Recently I have been thinking more about spirituality and I have looked into paganism a fair bit. Idk exactly what I am but I view nature and the universe with the same reverence that one would give to a diety, although I don’t view them as being sentient or really personify them in any way, but I think there is something special about them and appreciating them satisfies me spirituality.

Me when I vote and immediately slap the sticker on my face.

Taking time to just think about whatever in quiet. I do it outside if it’s nice and it’s so peaceful.
