I don't really want to be in an enclosed space like that with a stranger, especially a man. Men can be psychos and it's not worth the risk.

Yes, women can be psychos too, but A) women are less likely to feel entitled to another woman's body, and B) the playing field is more level in terms of strength.

I'm 30. Just recently started living. The past few months have been a blur of excitement, happiness, sadness, jealousy, anger, frustration, fear, and basically every other emotion imaginable. I have been in shock multiple times; and I have experienced overwhelming euphoria too. Things are turning around, and it's slow, painful and scary as fuck, but they're turning around.

My friends aren't abusive.

My friends actually love and care about me.

I feel like I have a functional family (even if I still have to live with my bio family)

I feel like I have a home (even if I'm still stuck in my parents house)

I've also become aware of how lonely I am. How broken I am. How my parents did a great job of cratering any chance I had of being a functioning, successful person. How my parents terrible advice regarding dating and socializing meant I missed out on some of the best years of my life.

Yet, the thing that's been the most encouraging is that I haven't been told to leave all my baggage at the door. No, they (my friends) let me bring my baggage with me and start unpacking in front of them. I have never felt so supported and cared about, and while I wish they could do more, I wouldn't trade them for anyone. They're slowly teaching me how to be a person and it makes me so happy. I love them very much <3

I love multiverse theory! I also love how a lot of people don't really understand how finite infinites work in the context of multiverse theory!

There might be a universe in which magic exists. However, there is no universe in which I exist and magic exists. That's because I was born into a mundane version of the universe, so there are infinite possibilities, but because my existence in a magical universe is 0, being accepted into a witching school is something that'll never happen for me.

So no, within the context of multiverse theory there is no universe in which multiverse theory doesn't exist, because that is a paradox and as such, has 0 chance of existing. However, it totally possible that a magical universe does exist (I would say we don't know enough about the formation of the universe to accurately judge whether or not such a universe could be possible under the right formative circumstances); it's just that the chances of any of us existing in that universe is 0.

Not when the author proudly flaunts the fact that every dime spent on her works goes towards eradicating trans people. (Yes, that was a bit hyperbolic, but she absolutely has stated that if you're enjoying Harry Potter then you're helping her fight against trans people).

To be fair, I honestly enjoy Harry Potter. However, I don't want to give people the temptation to buy books or go see movies.

No offense intended, but... Attempting to create Harry Potter themed communities while JK Rowling holds the rights to them, on a social media platform with a huge trans/enby population, doesn't seem like it would go very far.

As much as I enjoy Harry Potter, fuck Rowling and I will be looking forward to the day she dies or sells the IP.

You aren't the asshole. A Nazi apologist is still a Nazi. The apologists are the ones who open the gates so the Nazis can get in.

God, please don't. Why would someone make this?

Could this be used to make a space elevator?

Have you ever wanted to staff a vending machine? I have. It's kind of a boring job. All you do is sit there and stare at people through the glass because everything's automated now.

Is there a way to set up a vps as a seedbox with a cloud storage provider as storage? VPSes have almost no storage, and I already have a cloud storage provider with a fuckton of space; so spending $30+ a month on a dedicated seedbox seems unnecessary.
