This opinion is so ignorant, gatekeepy and out of touch that I have no idea where to even begin.

I also went through this. I also just toughed it out and radically accepted and expected them to happen tbh, and I didn’t taper off either, I just got off them immediately which is inadvisable but I have a thing where i’d rather have big pain fast than small pain slow. I got them multiple times every minute or so for (I think) between 2 and two weeks.
Be very kind to yourself, give yourself some grace and treat yourself. you’re going through a lot and you deserve to be given TLC while you’re going through it <3 Sending you strength!

I’m not upvoting this.
it’s a fantastic, well-reasoned post, but I don’t believe it’s an unpopular opinion to at all.
The public conversation around DEI is highly polarized which creates a false impression that a balanced, pragmatic view like this is rare. I think you’ve articulated a middle ground that most people hold

If it’s effective, sure!

Generally speaking, you’ll want to follow the 3-2-1 storage rule.
(3 Copies, 2 Media Types, 1 Off-site)
Copy 1 would be the original info saved on your main drive or wherever you access them immediately. Copy 2 is a local backup saved to an external hard drive or a home server, ideally one that’s powered off and not connected to direct power (lightning strikes)
Copy 3 can either be a cloud storage backup (such as Google Drive or OneDrive) or a copy kept at a friend’s house.

How dare you come here with your sound logic and reason that makes sense

This is actually great!
Social media sites should do this. There’s never a good reason to be on [Insert Corporate Slop Social Media Website here] at 3AM.

I’m probably being overly semantic but perhaps saying “A person with a blue hat and dark skin” would be the least abrasive way of putting it? That said, obsessing over endless semantic refinement and searching for a flawless alternative that does not exist for fear of hypothetical offense will lead to recursive over-correction ad nauseam

You’re right, these are awful. Have an upvote

I’m not a furry but I’d 100% wear this shirt in public. it’s hilarious.

For starters don’t call women females. Yes it’s technically accurate or whatever but that’s beside the point.
Generally avoid complimenting their physique or appearance. Other than that, just be nice to them the way you are with your friends and be platonic by default. “Cool shoes.”
But like, also be genuine about it. If they aren’t cool shoes then don’t say they’re cool shoes. Find something else that’s cool.
