To clarify, I didn’t post this with any agenda related to AOC’s recent statements. I haven’t paid enough attention to the story to have an opinion. I just happened to be scrolling through old memes earlier today and felt like sharing, because I thought it was funny.
I guess that means the screenshot was taken 2 hours after the original post was made. I found this in my old saved photos from several years ago. Still seemed funny and relevant today
I think this is from like 2021
Yeah, I’m going to echo the other comment - I don’t think doctors should ever be able to deny trans people healthcare. If it’s something out of their expertise, a referral might make sense. But right now there’s a lot of movement towards denying us healthcare, and I don’t think we should be giving that side any more excuses for their bigotry.
Genuinely curious - what is the difference between detritus and dirt?
Even better! He’s a micro manager, but he isn’t actually a manager. He’s just convinced he should have a finger in everything and always be listened to because he’s been there forever.

Evangelical pastors are at 82%.7·11 days agoYeah. If you go through the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA), you get baptized, given communion, and get confirmed all at the same time on Easter. Having a sponsor is part of the sacrament of confirmation.
At least that’s the way my church growing up did it. I’m sure there are exceptions for extenuating circumstances and differences across countries.

You have to do classes for at least a year and have someone sponsor you. It makes sense - they take their belief seriously and want to make sure that people joining know what they’re getting into
compostgoblin@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Does anybody else understand they need to make deep connections with people but their social battery has been dead for a while and can't put up with people's BS?11·12 days agoYes, I feel that way sometimes. But I try to keep in mind that humans are innately social creatures, and I shouldn’t shut myself off like that. It helps to have pre-planned events with people I know I like, like playing a TTRPG or board game, or volunteering.

How are you feeling about cops and the government these days?

I wonder why I have issues with authority figures and privacy?
“Gruntled”! The wonderful opposite of disgruntled
And “gruntling” is an excellent old-timey word for baby pigs
It’s all good! I had just seen a few other comments mention similar things, so I wanted to make it clear that I wasn’t trying to make any particular point related to AOC’s recent votes. And I’ll take a look at the article, thanks!
Edit: Also, I do generally agree, we should hold our leaders to high standards
