I don't even assume this person has a daughter. For all we know, they have a non-binary child and wish them "happy daughter's day" every year. Not that I have a mom like that or anything /projection
Oooh, shiny! Thank you.
OH! It also just focused on the gendered nature of everything in my paper in a way that I didn't. The paper involved an 1860s divorce and a doctor who got her degree in the 1890s IIRC. Yeah, that's cool and all, but the 'podcast' kept circling back to harp on the 'trailblazing women' plotline in a way that I did not care for.
I HIRED SOMEONE TO EDIT A VIDEO THE OTHER DAY AND OMG, IT FELT WEIRD TO HIRE SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING "I COULD DO MYSELF", BUT IT WAS SO WORTH IT!
I've tried it out with a paper I wrote and some of the references. The text-based summarizer is pretty handy. It provides links to the sources where it found what it regurgitates.
The podcast-creator... it's full of fluff, gets details wrong, and I cannot recommend it to anyone other than the person that wrote the paper.
For me/the author, it was a way have parts of the paper highlighted, which may encourage me to go back and expand those sections. For people that don't already know what the paper says.... well, it made shit up. Not cool.
edit: if anyone's interested in reading my paper, hit me up! I'm massaging it into the required format (grumble grumble word :( grumble grumble LaTeX :) ) for a local history journal and I'd love more eyes on it. It involves financial intrigue, family drama, mysterious women, and poetry about how awful someone's inlaws are. Also, lots of lawsuits.
I used to have garlic chives in my herb garden, before I moved. It's handy being able to just go outside and snip up some oniony goodness for soup or what-have-you.
It was this argument with my mom that helped me realize she was the sort of racist that doesn't think she's racist. We were talking about how black men tend to get a longer sentence for the same crimes than white men. Her stance was pretty much "well, they shouldn't have done the crime" and I'm like.... Mom. Unfair is unfair. Thankfully we're no longer close for other reasons.
Not a framer, but what I would do is take it apart and see what you're working with. It shouldn't be hard to replace just the mat. I doubt you'll be able to clean the water damage away.
(not OP) My only complaint with levers is that I snag my pockets on them. This might be peculiar to my pocket-height. Is there a more accessible door handle style that is less snaggy than levers? I'll do me a web search.
Also, jerk cats can figure out how to open them. Then again, what sort of monster would try and keep a cat out of somewhere /s
Sidenote: I bought my condo from an elderly lady and I love the accessibility features that were installed for her: night lights all up the stairs and in the upstairs bath, really sturdy grab bars in the bath. I highly recommend bath grab bars.

I just finished this kit today

I started it to keep my hands occupied during a class. I love the simple 2-color pattern. I picked the kit up from Stitched Modern.

"Swallowed by a Wolf". Jessie Oonark. 1970
(lemmy.sdf.org)
I post a lot of pre-modern-era art from European artists. So, I thought I'd mix it up a bit with this work by Inuit artist Jessie Oonark.
Image description: Work is on paper. Forms are defined by bold swatches of color. The main figure is a side profile of the green head of a wolf, with brown eye and an open mouth filled with point black teeth. In the mouth of the wolf is a man. His purple-brown legs stick out of the wolf's mouth. His torso is visible through the wolf's mouth as a white man-shape. A smaller animal's head--maybe another wolf-- is defined by an orange outline. The orange animal has its nose touching the throat of the green wolf. Its teeth are also showing. Below the artwork is the title, caption, and signature of the artist.

"Lion tamer". ca 1873.
(lemmy.sdf.org)
Image Description: a man with a very large, dark moustache stands in a cage surrounded by 3 lions and 2 tigers. The man stares straight at the viewer. The man wears what looks like plate mail on his torso, with fancy gold shoulder thingies, red sleaves, a short red skirt, white tights, and fancy bejeweled boots. His hat is red with a blue feather. The big cats are all in fierce poses. A maned lion stands with his paws on the man's shoulder. The man holds open the other maned lion's mouth.

“When It Comes to the Lion, Business Between Ben and Jim, It’s Nip and Tuck”. Political cartoon. Thomas Nast. 1884.
(lemmy.sdf.org)
Image description: etched political cartoon. A lion is on a wheeled pedestal labeled "British". A man in a suit and befeathered top hat twists the lion's tail. A bald man in a suit twists its head. The lion's mouth is open. Behind the men and lion is a storefront labeled "furs". A man watched open-mouthed through the window. Next to the cartoon is a colored registry thingy, for calibrating colors.
A detailed explanation of the cartoon is at HarpWeek (and TBH their image of the cartoon is clearer than the one I uploaded. I chose the LOC one because the permissions were clearer). In summary: In American politics, the Republican presidential nominee and the Greenback-Labor nominee were both critical of Great Britain (represented by the lion).

You don't have to have dysphoria to be trans. It's perfectly fine to transition or not transition. Transitioning is scary but can also be pretty empowering if it's right for you. You didn't have to transition in all circumstances at the same time--i was out for years with my friends before asking my coworkers to use my new pronouns. It's ok to transition in your 30s. It's definitely easier in some ways to let people treat you as your birth-assigned gender, but can mentally/emotionally be harder.
My background: non-binary, figured my crap out at 30, finally changed my name and started using appropriate pronouns at work at almost 40. I haven't done anything medical because I'm ok with my body as-is and I can't be arsed to figure out a new system of clothing myself.
