Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I lived in medium busy SanDiego near downtown. It was great. Now I live in Washington state near lake Washington. Big difference.

This place is partly walkable but only for exercise. Like you can't hope to go to MacDonald's, get a burger and comeback home. I'd be surprised if you got to the McDonald's and could still stand up straight. This February has been weird and you could probably one day return home. Most years a search party would find your body among the brown road slushy snow.

If you love nature, come over between April and June. If you want fried chicken then between July and August. And if you don't care to refrigerate anything, that's the rest of the year.

People lose their job from Microsoft and Amazon and they lose their home, yet no homeless anywhere to be found.... Don't look in the snow. I heard that we keep homeless in shelters like human beings. Actually I have seen people living in tents near the various urban areas. You'd be crazy to try living a life of walking around anywhere else in this crazy weather state. Don't try...you'll be soggy. That's not a typo. It rains like if you were a shower curtain. You know its happening, you're all wet, but the action is freezing lizards off trees in Florida. Like if we get a little breezy rain here, someone's getting a category 7 super cell storm in their eastern state soon. Here you clean the moss from the roof, the trees, your windshield, your glasses, your shoes...the moss...it wants you dead.
