I am american, moreso than most realistically. My family has been texan since before even texas was american. I am brown and have a Latin last name, there's a ton of us the same here in texas. In my family the generation before me was the last that inherited spanish from the family and none are fluent (texmex spanglish at best), at least not without schooling.

This is all to say that my drivers license is on me at all times outside of my house. I carry it everywhere, even on my smoke breaks at work, even when I'm washing my car, even when I'm checking my mail.

I shouldn't be living like this, I don't deserve to live like this, my rights as an American citizen say I should be protected against this, but here we are.

They're calling it "Obama care hikes" instead of "Republicans and trump hate you price gouging to kill public health care"

This man wants to do things that will make me and many people i love dead or suffering. How do you not understand how we could feel this way?

I mean yeah they do. My parents took me to r rated movies since I was in grade school if I wanted to see it, bought me m rated games etc. They had a right to raise me how they want and part of that was making sure I knew what make believe was beforehand and that some things are beyond me in years and I turned out just fine.

Despite the laundry list of privacy and personal property infringements being an issue here this will also cause an issue for poorer people that cant afford the new markup for trash tech they dont need, and will create a new reason to be harassed. Cops will start pulling over and bothering every car that is made before this mandate. They can use this as an excuse to accuse people of intoxication and get real loose with their rights when they get rightfully angry.

I'm so glad my car doesnt have any onstar or cameras or any of this crap.

I am both latine and trans and latinx is fucking dumb lol so heres another one for the anecdote

It is propaganda becauae they will twist truths and outright lie to make trans people seem sick or confused, they'll tout harmful and ineffective "cures" as real medical science. They do their best to villify the trans community and the treatments they undergo with cherry picked information and blatant falsehoods and claims of grooming to discredit anything they say or do.

Being trans is not a trend, or a sickness, or evil, or whatever they try to say to make it go away. Our rights, existence, and our medical treatment are not up for debate. This is the same as the true facts they once touted about nonwhites to make a racist agenda and it is most certainly propoganda.

Temperature is actually an important part of culinary art. Serving something at the right time to be at peak flavor, texture, and Temperature is important.

That being said many foods can and are appreciated at different Temps. Some foods containing those fats thinned by heat are meant to be enjoyed cool (cookies and cakes with a high butter content fornexample) in other contexts.

As a consumate omnivore, eater, and foodie please by all means enjoy.

To those who haven't tried give it a shot. Brisket and it's fat hit different cold and is enjoyable in a new way. For those that like cold foods try warm sweets.

As a final comment you do you boo boo, but when someone prepares and serves you food try and appreciate it the way they intended, they've worked hard on it. They're trying to share something special with you and it's worth a shot if you care (restuarants are not necessarily held to this, if you're paying you have every right to say no fucking way) and try to share your experiences if you can.

During the same session they banned drag shows in such a vague way that a trans person playing guitar in a public place could be fined or even arrested for sexual performance. Also made it illegal to refuse to identify yourself to police

He's one of those pseudo icons or idols of weird guys who think being edgy or "deranged" is cool.

I'm Hispanic in texas, my family has been american since texas became US territory and most of us barely speak any spanish if at all. I carry my ID to check my mail now, walk to the corner store on my lunch break, everywhere. I don't expect these pricks to wait for me to get my ID and that's what they want. Control and fear and I have to capitulate because the alternative bad at best, life destroying or worse.

I'm in, I'll send a dm

Lol I'm transfem/enby and latine and I hate it. Latine is the way

I'm going into work but my gf is heading over now

Just got yelled at by a co-worker at a new job and called lazy because after only a month my invoices aren't descriptive enough...I told them i have add but i think that like most people the don't understand it. Just gonna keep doing my best and work on highlighting my good attributes : )

Nobody renamed anything, we just called it what it was more concisely than just saying "normal" lol

Many people have never met a trans person, they've never shook our hand, spoken to us, nothing. Too many people think of trans women as a man in a dress with tits invading womens rooms, trying to justify their perversion like MAPS do.

Pick your biggest insecurity and imagine you were born with it outright and there's not much you can do to change it after you've grown past 12. That's what its like. Imagine peeing constantly because of the remedy to this problem but not being able to use public bathrooms. Imagine being too weak to fight the angry men that attack you.

Hey, we don't all suck. A select few bigots are making shit suck overall

"I've never seen it it must not exist"

I work in a creative industry too and it is the bane of not only my group but every other company I've spoken to. Every artist and musician I know hates it too.

I just got hit by beryl, it is hell on earth here right now. Now power for two days so far with temps arouns 90-95 f andn%100 humidity. Sleeping is now considered a water sport and no ac in sight.

The worst part? You cant cool off even with a fan, there's too much humidity forntour sweat to evaporate and cool you. I wish i at least had cold drinks
