Not OP but here you go. I work with young people and have had suicide prevention training multiple times, this is a recurring mantra that not asking about it is much worse than asking.

I watched it yesterday and had a similar reaction. There's really good animation and the story was really good to get more depth for hey character. There were also some interesting call backs. Spoilers below!
Samson still had his powers so we got to see those in action. Also the green phasing person was a man, in the invincible series it's a woman so I wonder what happened there? The people in tubes reminded me of robot too, I wonder if we're going to get more of the others origin stories as well? Monster girl would be cool to see how she got cursed like that

I'm fuming about this fainting condition I have. Passed out in the loo last night and went face first into some drawers. Cut my cheek open really deeply, nearly all the way through, and need a specialist to stitch my face back together. Been waiting 8 hours in A&E and a bit more time to wait.
Not the NHS fault, they're doing great with thy funding they have and also the senior doctors strike happening today.

The bury your gays trope does seem to be dying out now and there are more and more positive/normal representations but you can still catch it. Brokeback Mountain was a classic example of it, but that's quite old now.

Have you heard of the bury your gays trope? It's a pretty common theme with queer characters dying but it's getting better.
Speckle 1 year ago • 100%
Moiras accent is amazing. Goals for sure.
You're right, the representation is so positive and not through the lens of trauma or grief so it's much more real in some ways. Not saying lgbt people don't have trauma but there's other parts of them too!

The current status is that he's really active on lemmy still and will sometimes pop in on these type of posts and answer your questions.
He did do a follow up about how to take a poop when you haven't for three days lol. So he clearly had trouble getting started again but I think he's well now.

Indeed! I left it on too long perhaps, but the skin there is softer than on legs and arms anyway. I was supposed to scrub off the cream with this sponge and my skin started coming off too 🤮

This is kind of how I thought it might be. Due to the way it all works I don't think we can really do much about it and will just have to adjust I guess.

Thanks for answering. What are you paying them for? To keep it clear of advertising, so bannning advertising accounts? Or something else? What about accounts on other instances, paying your instance owner won't affect them?
You can already donate to your instance, and should if you can afford it 😊
Speckle 1 year ago • 100%
As the instance rules? So if anyone posts an advertising post the account is banned? Or each person blocking and moving on?
This is the second advertising post I've seen on lemmy and they were both today. I'm wondering how other people feel about it or if they've even seen posts like this? Personally I'm livid and hate seeing it here. One of the things that attracts me to lemmy is the donation based, volunteer run, distributed, open access nature of it. I don't want it to become profit driven and I really don't want to see companies in what I belive should be a purely social endeavour. I really think making it profit driven will ruin it, if that means it stays smaller then I'm okay with that. Now I know I can block them and move on which is what I've done. I'm also pleased to say that both posts I saw were heavily downvoted and I did my part too. I'm curious if other people agree with me and don't want advertising like this on lemmy? Also, what do people think we can actually do about it if we don't want it around? Petition instance admins to ban advertising accounts? Then how do we define one? Can anything actually be done or do I just have to block and move on from a possibly ever increasing flow of advertising until I get bored and move on? Sorry for the long rambling post and thanks if you read this far.

I don't think any of these are designed for really intimate areas, if it's not designed to go there I would be very skeptical. I've used creams like that on my chest before when I was a teen, it didn't go well and there was more blood than expected..

Hey there's another long pasta on here that has some true stuff and some untrue stuff.
If you want to go for it then I think you should. Another poster uses a safety razor and that's what I used to do too. Plenty of shave cream or I sometimes got one of those ones you can use in the shower, I think they're designed and sold as ladies leg razors.
Always use plenty of moisturiser after shaving with a razor. It will itch a bit at as it grows back in, try not to scratch though as you'll irritate the skin and maybe get pimples.
You can also use a clipper, this won't go as close so you won't have the itch growing back and moisturising won't be as vital. Be careful though as they can be sharp and you can catch yourself (I mean this goes for all sharp things near your bits). You'll have like really short stubble to begin with this way which can be easier to manage and also means you still have that bit of friction. If you're clean shaven and moisturised you will be very smooth.
The pasta talks about having a stinky ass after shaving and being all shitty. I never had this issue because I just cleaned myself properly after going to the loo, don't let that scare you just clean up properly.

Thanks for your reply, it seems like there are still some parts of it that have relevance which is interesting to hear.
Yeah I don't believe the author claims it's universal experience, more like some strong trends they've noticed working with their clients. I see it myself in a lot of gay men that I've known as well with pride and brittle egos. But again it's not universal.
That's an interesting point about the inherent bias in there. His clients are defintely going to be from a very specific demographic, I don't fall into that and neither do most people I know who've read it and we've all got something from it.
Good to know that there's still some relevance!

I read this book years ago when it was the first edition. It really spoke to me about some feelings I thought were really personal but turned out to be fairly common. I read it again years later and it was a good read again. It has some really useful lessons and ideas I think. I'm really curious if anyone else has read it, particularly someone younger than 40, and what they thought about it. If you haven't read it I would recommend giving it a go if you can find it, I'm going to give it another read now it's popped into my head.
Like seriously, who thinks the workers will *actually* stand up against Big Brother though? The bot is keeping us all down. We need to ban the bot, free the lemmy and post without accusations of thought crimes before we can organise to take down BB. But how?
Not when did you come out, that's a whole different story, but when did you know you were a gay bro? I've always been excited by other guys, I remember being very young (like 7/8) and getting a bit too into the wrestling. My parents turned it off 😩 I was around 13 when someone said something about 'gay' and I learned it was a whole thing. It was like a light bulb moment and a bunch of things instantly made sense. And that was it, came out to some friends not long after and that was it. How about you guys?

I've read that uploading all your images/gifs/videos to lemmy will cause big server costs down the line. I wanted to do my part in keeping the costs low so which site or app or whatever do people recommend to upload your media to for linking in posts? I've tried imgur and I'm not really a fan

Messing around with an ai art generator and got these gay bros. Thought they were cute enough to share for pride month.
I've been able to find a user and I can block or message them but I can't see how to follow them. Is it possible does anyone know?
Used my username with some photo prompts. Was pleasantly surprised with this
