My grandfather was from the so called "greatest generation". He was "handy" and refused to get help fixing anything. Cue everything in his house just being fixed with masking tape. TV panel fell off? Tape it back. Hole in wall? Tape over it? Nothing couldn't be fixed with masking tape.

It was dogshit and sometimes you have get people who know what they're doing to help.

My sibling was telling me about a hateful bumble message they got from a man, I muttered "basement...", I'm pretty Dorleypilled.

Weirdly true. Source is dog shit (Radio Free Europe), but a combination of the non-aligned movement and loving basketball made Serbs pretty chill with most other people except those also from the Balkans.

All the other former Yugoslav nations scoring well too except North Macedonia.

Yeah definitely Yugoslavia was in the Balkens not Eastern Europe, and non aligned movement not Warsaw Pact. It's more like if China broke apart and there was a restoration of "liberal democracy" and oligarchs etc, then Vietnam broke out in a Civil War due to US meddling economically, politically and covertly.

I thought you had to change them almost monthly cause they get "cored"?

Oh I meant an unopened vial can sit on a shelf for 5 years and doesn't take up much room, if people can afford to plan that far in advance. "Coring" is real but also kind of overblown, there's techniques and equipment to reduce the chances, the more concerning thing is discoloration etc that suggests containments have entered or the vial has gone bad. I don't do DIY HRT but have investigated it a bunch in case things turn sour here in Australia.

Would actually be interested in reading more about this

Trans people throughout history have come up with ways to have gender affirming care. One particular group are the Enarei from ancient Scythia, who were feminised Priestesses assigned male at birth. It's speculated they would consume Licorice and Black Coshosh, herbs that have anti-androgenic effects (post-menopausal women take black cohosh even now as a supplements). Pregnant mare's have large amounts of estrogen in their urine. One of the first modern HRT medications was Premarin derived from Mare's piss. The concentrations were still quite low, so they would be fermented sometimes into beer, sometimes into cheese.

Edit: Sorry the wikipedia sucks because they don't mention all the HRT stuff, I'll try to remember a good source, but that's the name for example of a group to look into.

Because most Cis men won't buy a prostate massager or a magic wand.

Baby Zombies will jump onto chickens and ride them, it's pretty rare.

C'mon don't up vote this

"Face too manly, haircut too woke, looked too old, breasts too small" etc. I remember they hated this.

Superficially it's not great. A few observations though:

• This costume is no more revealing than things Emma Frost wears in the comics, it's basically her thing. Not that this excuses things (comics are misogynistic AF), but it's not like they took a more modest character and changed her (like Kitty Pryde in a skimpy outfit etc).

• This is an unlockable outfit her default is way more concealing than anything she has ever worn in comics (and I remember that pissing Chuds off a while back). Still pretty objectifying

• The Art Director for Marvel Rivals is Dino Ma (far left on picture I confirmed with other sources as the naming order is wrong in the tweet), now I don't know for certain Dino designed Emma Frost, but it's a small studio. I don't know Dino's gender or sexuality and shouldn't speculate. But they have queer vibes from my impressions. I also from years of hanging out on NSFW tumblr and twitter have a good sense for when an artist is drawing objectification (cishet) versus objectification (queer) and this tickles my six sense slightly, entirely vibes based towards the latter.

• There's an online meme that Emma Frost is trans (positive) that some writers have leant into over the years. From memory there's a story about how a young Brunette Emma Frost has a blonde brother named Christian who is sent to a conversion camp for being gay and is never seen again. Both sort of connecting the mutant as a metaphor for queerness, but also a theory is that Emma was that blonde boy and wasn't gay but actually straight trans woman (the Brunette Emma being a sibling or an invented person). A trans woman dressing like this would be "Mother" as the kids say

• Uh...she could make me worse.

And too be fair we all want good bones.

(Plus i did skip over that psychologically it can suck to not have the hormones you want and need)
