I'm transfemme and post op. Yeah, lots of big emotions approaching that table, and I'm so sorry that they hit you all then and there.
Take your time and definitely do not rush!!! Therapy is an excellent call, it sounds like you need to really delve into what it is you need. Be absolutely sure you feel comfortable with your surgeon. Be absolutely sure you're ready. Be absolutely sure you have support for after the surgery as well, because the recovery really sucks.
It's not all flowers and roses on the other side either. My surgeon was truly excellent and did a great job, but I had a couple weird complications and a bad UTI, and there are some things I don't like about how things turned out. But there were so many things and health problems I had that came from being pre op too, and it was certainly way worse for me before surgery. At the end, big and complicated feelings. Take good care of yourself and be sure to really get introspective about it all, okay? If it's right for you, great. If not, also great.
I was passing through Montevideo, Uruguay, and me and some folks at the hostel I was staying at were out trying a local restaurant. The guy who owned the place saw we were tourists and said he wanted to treat us to a local specialty, and so brought out... something. It was something like animal bits, chunks of fat, and who knows what else all suspended in a hard gelatin. It was truly vile, and I swear it had bits of hair in it as well. To be polite we all tried a small bit, and then got the heck out of there as quick as we could.
To this day I can't tell if he was sincere, or if he really hated tourists and gave us the contents of his dish trap. Googling has turned up nothing, but thankfully our politeness didn't extend to actually finishing the awful thing.
Before I came out as transfemme, I was in the city of Manaus in Brazil, traveling during Carnaval. Manaus is not terribly popular with foreigners, and I stood out as very white, very American, and very blonde, so lots of people would stare, want to talk with me, randomly touch my long hair, etc. All normal travel things.
During a concert however three guys were actively watching and inspecting me, all turned away from the stage to do so. They'd turn to talk to each other, and then turn right back to stare at me. Not so normal, and I was getting a little spooked and thinking about an exit plan, when they all came right up to me with a phone out.
One shouted over the crowd as he showed me his phone, "This you?!" and showed me a picture of Kurt Cobain. Hilarious, and seeing Kurt in a dress of course is even funnier now in hindsight. I said no, pointed out that he was dead, shook a couple hands, and they wandered off. Fun times.
My VPN connection appears to change whenever I connect, because it's connecting to the quickest server, so I am not able to use the same settings in qbittorrent. How do you manage server shifts like that?
You're getting downvoted, but as a woman I have been and have seen other women hemmed in by creepy men for sitting in the window seat. I'd rather be rude than at risk.
They are appealing temporary restraining orders, which are not legally appealeable! TROs are extreme methods of relief designed to stop something from occurring that has a huge risk of irreparable harm, and are temporary so that the court can actually take the time to weigh the issue.
Usually a TRO is issued for 2-3 weeks, the court takes that time to come to grips with what's happening, and then can rule with a better understanding. If you could just appeal a TRO, then you could just take the action that causes the irreparable harm faster than any court can effectively rule, which is why they're not supposed to be appealeable.
So yes, appealing a TRO is dystopian and illegal, but who can stop it? The supreme court eventually...
Because teenagers are dependants and the parents are responsible for their wellbeing. Since humans wish to and need to reproduce, society has ultimately decided (for better or worse) that the best way to protect everyone is to make children the responsibility of their parents until they are adults. The adults made the decision to have a child, and so that child is their responsibility until they child can be responsible for themselves.
Well, as you noticed a lot has changed since Debian in the 90s. While Manjaro has a lot of problems, and while I've found I need to reinstall it every 6 months or so because I'm not very l33t, it's still honestly very easy and very straightforward, and definitely better than Arch if you don't know what you're doing.
If you approach Manjaro with a plan for regularly backing up your data, you can reinstall it with ease whenever you need to, and the reinstallation will be fast and easy. It works out of the box with Steam, and it doesn't ask you to pay close attention to it's backend while not having the problems you noticed with Ubuntu, and best of all it's free and it's not Windows. I run Manjaro and I'm pretty happy with it overall, when though I'm sure I'd be better served with Arch if I ever took the time to really figure it out properly. Good luck, I hope whatever you pick works out well for you.
Frankly? This sort of response above is unhinged. If this person is as awful as you say, just get them out of your life and move on. Trying to document everything, calling their friends and family, spending this much time on someone who is awful and not worth the time nor the effort? You're going to drive yourself crazy and somehow they're still going to be in your life making you miserable.
I'm sorry this person is terrible to you, but the best "vengeance" is forgetting all about them and being happy doing what you want to do. The more space they take up in your mind, the worse you're going to feel about the whole situation.
Only if they politick like humans do. Perhaps elves don't think politics makes any sort of sense and instead defer to ancient kingships á la Tolkien. No elf is creating intrigue around Galadriel or Elrond, they are just as they are, and are revered for their ancient wisdom.
Or perhaps the idea of hierarchy itself is completely alien to them. After a few thousand years a lot of the trappings of mortal power may just not be of any interest anymore, and every elf is a sovereign unto themselves.

Oh my God that's exactly what it was. Awful!!! It was really not good.

That's mandible. You're thinking of the chains that go around the hands and feet of prisoners.

Got an explanation for how to do this?

I sent this to my girlfriend, then when she flipped it over I flashed my titties at her.
These bunnies are all so incredibly cute!! Thank you for this amazimg art it always brightens my day to see them :))
It's almost like the legal system is made to be obscure and obtuse by design. Difficult to know what's going on there as a lay person.

What distribution did you try to use? Some of them are steeper to learn than others.
Thanks for always watching out for me Satan!
Couldn't this be used to remove lands? Oops, no more islands in your deck?
