Unfortunately I can't help you there. I still remember wanting to dress super cutely feminine only to look into a mirror and find myself too masculine to pull it off and sadly changing to wear something else. Or the first time I tried to wear heels only to get scared after a few steps outside and hurry back inside to change. Only facial feminisation surgery did it for me and now I know I pass.

The first time I allowed myself to wear a dress when I first saw myself in the mirror as a woman I immediately understood how it feels to identify with your body. Before I would always say I am not a body I only inhabit it. But as soon as I could see myself as a woman something clicked in my brain and for the first time I felt like I was that body. Before that I didn't even know that was something one could feel. So at least for me gender is very real.

We live in a world where there is an AI that creates extensive documentation out of simple descriptions and there is another AI that reduces that extensive documentation back to something you can actually read. What is the purpose of this? Why are we paying the AI company twice to do unnecessary work?

There is a great book called "A Pattern Language" by Christopher Alexander, et.al. that came out in 1977 and that contains everything you need to do to solve almost all of today's problems. Relevant for your question are for example the patterns:

• Independent Regions: "[...]the government of a region becomes less and less manageable with size. [...] We believe the limits are reached when the population of a region reaches some 2 to 10 million."
• Community of 7000: "People can only have a genuine effect on local government when the units of local government are autonomous, self-governing, self-budgeting communities, which are small enough [...]"
• Local Town Hall: "Local government of communities and local control by the inhabitants, will only happen if each community has its own physical town hall which forms the nucleus of its political activity"
• Necklace of Community Projects: "The local town hall will not be an honest part of the community which lives around it, unless it is itself surrounded by all kinds of small community activities and projects, generated by the people for themselves."

Generally, almost all of our problems stem from our isolation from the society that surrounds us, which in turn stems from the architecture of our cities and houses. This book shows how to not do that.

While I definitely love my boobs, it's ffs I'm most happy about. Sometimes when I look into the mirror I think who is this gorgeous older lady I get to spend the rest of my life with? And it's meeee! 🥰🥰🥰

My home server is my pet! Yesterday I migrated my nextcloud from docker compose to kubernetes (k3s). That's like playing with your cat or taking the dog for a walk.

So happy for you! 🥳 Good luck on everything!

I always replace onions with fennel in every recipe. I have yet to find one where that wasn't an instant improvement. I honestly don't understand why people eat onions when fennel exists.

In order to make money you need to sell something for more than its production costs you. You can either sell something at a small margin to a lot of people or something at a big margin to a few. Selling at a small margin to few people doesn't make you a living and selling at a big margin to a lot of people just isn't possible. Selling at a big margin to a few people means you need to find a specific community, become a part of this community and sell something to them they want enough to justify the price. Furry porn would e.g. fall in this category. Alternatively you can sell at a small margin to a lot of people. In this case you need to find a bland and generic product so it appeals to a lot of people, and find a method to produce it so cheaply that other people can't easily undercut your price, and finally find a spin to advertise it to a majority. In this category are all "livestyle products" that sell to underclass white people the idea they'd belong to the middle class. Also selling mainstream books and music would fall under this category.

I keep saying Reloaded and Revolution would make one great sequel if you cut all the crap out. As they are the scenes are just a little too long and there's too much gratuitous fighting. But there are enough great ideas for one great movie, just not two.
