Update for Everyone VIII: He who laughs have the last laugh

[bagelman]

My life is pretty much exactly the same now as it was on New Year's 2021 and New Year's 2020.

Happy new year 2022 to the haters and losers, of which I am one.

Work hard, be smart, and always remember: Winning takes care of everything.

But President Trump told me we are so sick and tired of winning...

A guy just jumped over the counter where I work and stole an armful of booze. I should probably be more shaken then I am rn.

Spoiler alert: blatant attention whoring, subtweeting, and internalized transphobia

Show

Currently wondering why I even bother. Like, it's pretty obvious that I'm not welcome here, or anywhere, for that matter, and there isn't really anything I can do about it. As long as people know I am trans, they will always see me as "lesser than"; less of a woman at best, and less of a person at worst. Maybe I should learn to accept it, maybe even be proud of it, but I don't know how. Maybe other trans people can figure it out, but I'm not one of them. Maybe if I ever get bottom surgery, my legal name/gender change, and electrolysis done, I can move somewhere else and try and start over.

It will get better. I promise. And eff anyone who makes you feel unwelcome, on and off atlas.

I'll be in the US for a spell next month.

New display name to pay tribute to my hero.

Olawakandi not Blair.

I've met many politicians in my time, but meeting Curtis Sliwa on the subway, as I did an hour ago, was unique.

Why did he beat you up?

Can you drive client meetings above the legal BAC for driving a car?

hey guys so I'm trying to plan a basically off-grid vacation next year, my wife and I really would like to visit Alaska, but we aren't sure where to go. We basically want to stay somewhere very remote where we can rent a cabin and "unplug" to just sort of just explore the outdoors for a couple of weeks, but I'm not sure where in Alaska is best for that.

I was also considering maybe Kootenai National Forest or Glacier National Park in Montana, if either of those might be better. Anybody have any experience with these areas or have any ideas?

I was in Alaska over the summer. It is very large and very empty and if you're looking to be where people aren't, you can look just about anywhere. If you really want to get away from it all, there are a substantial number of cabins available on public land; these do not have, for instance, running water. Obviously there are alternatives with more improvements than that, if you're willing to pay a little more.

As far as location goes, I like the interior of Alaska a lot, although it's not as immediately awe-inspiring as the coast. The country around Fairbanks should have plenty of options if that's appealing. I would strongly recommend Alaska as a destination; I loved it there. It should be noted that there are a lot of mosquitoes in the summer.

Took my kids to the library and some self-appointed COVID policeman accosted at me and tried to get me kicked out for not having a mask on my toddler (mask mandates here only apply to 5+).

You have to be a major jerk to think it’s your job to police children wearing masks. So sick of this pandemic

I have a problem. I spent half the day diving into r/SuccessionTV like a literal week after discovering the show (which I have already finished).

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

I broke a TV with my thumb.

Even up on the Arctic Coast?

I just got threatened by a guy because I wouldn't sell him cigars without an ID. It was bad enough that my manager told me to call the cops, so now I'm sitting here waiting for the cops to arrive so they can look at the footage. And I was feeling all good and being so productive before this happened.

I'm not worth it, and I'm tired of people pretending that I am.

Not worth what exactly?
