on a serious note: holy shit that sounds incredible and i can't even pretend to hide my jealousy. I'd die on the spot as a happy woman if that were me

i really want to try dating men but i keep getting terrified that they won't see me as a woman. I see myself as a woman but I'm never confidence that anyone else will. I'd sell my soul for a man to let me be the girl on a date though 😭

~~that building is about 40% of the reason your entire fake country exists, settler~~

actually hang on what building even is that? i can't tell?

uhhhhhh... this is the bit of your life when you realize that although transitioning was an immense step in self improvement, there's still a lot wrong with you internally and you still have a lot to work on. You get angry and frustrated by this until you start "talking with" ancient gods in a rhetorical sense until it stops getting rhetorical and starts getting literal. you'll then have a moment with what feels like talking to someone/thing supernatural and dive head first into some obscure quasi religious practice

you'll also come out at work, which you'll be going into expecting one hell of a fight but being pleasantly surprised with how relatively easy it was. customers will still misgender you regularly for an unfortunately long time, despite your best efforts

i've been starving to death for years in a concentration camp as settlers live in my stolen home. 20% of everyone i know is dead and almost everyone i know has PTSD. i am actively being exterminated for my race

a brown muslim family moved in down the block last week

oh hey look it's where i was like 8-9 months ago. the E is great, isn't it?

damn, maybe my complexion is more summer than autumnal. I'm rocking these warm, bright colors today

i ran the numbers on that one "this is the way" homestead post from earlier today and although my napkin math is crude, I figured that on that little drawing, there's about 1,600 square feet of grain being grown there. 1600 square feet of grain. That's roughly the size of 10 parking spaces. To feed (possibly) a family, but at LEAST one grown ass man and 4 cows

what the fuck

if you do it right, you could take a chunk out of your grocery bill after paying maybe twice that in equipment to set it up, but yeah, in terms of self sufficiency you'd probably be best ditching the animals all together. Maybe a bee hive or one pig might be plausible but those should be afterthoughts for you

In the US grains like corn and wheat go for about $4.25-$5.25 per pound.

oh, i see. I was thinking kCal/acre instead of cash value/acre, assuming you were eating this instead of selling it

yeah i was about to say it looks like a nice hobbyist project that would take a lot of effort, but at best that's going to be a supplement to your total food income and you're still going to be buying 80% of your groceries at best. Not that it doesn't make it worth it as a hobby but come on man, you can't subsist one person off that

(wait, isn't grain super productive per acre or am i missing something here)
