News@lemmy.world•Trans Master Sgt describes being told she’s the “wrong kind of American” after 20 years of service
1·18 days agoThe thing that sucks is the way I see it, it’s discrimination regardless making transgender people out to be unfit to serve. It puts us in a lesser position than cisgender people

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Backlash Grows as Texas Republican Convention Flashes Hasan Piker Underwear Pic on Jumbotron: 'They Want Him so Bad'English
4·18 days agoI remember when Trump first came onto the scene and one of the things he was really good at was monopolizing all the attention. I really wonder if all this attention on figures like Hassan is just playing into their hands. After all, they do say that there is no such thing as bad publicity

3·18 days agoYeah this was me. I didn’t really have any concept of self aside from what my dad was doing and that’s what he did. So that’s what I was going to do. It paid really well but once I realized that the gig was up I had to leave or else get caught into the political quagmire going on now.

8·2 months agoHuh. I used to use the laundromat a few doors down. There are some great places in traverse City that we can go to anyway. We’ve got a good trans/LGBT in general Community there. And we give each other business recommendations. Granted, I never got a haircut there but I’m trying to get more hair.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•JD Vance Tells U.S. Air Force Grads They Can't Boo His Commencement Speech Because 'I'm the Vice President of the United States'English
8·4 months agoIdeologically aligned is not quite accurate. I’ve met a couple of academy grads (and many military officers in general) and they’re generally pretty smart. Much smarter than JD Vance is. Some may be aligned ideologically, but I would say that most of them are probably not. It’s a 4-year pipeline too like any college, so they would have joined in 2022.
They have been noticing the attacks of the Trump administration on higher academia. They’ve been noticing the failures of the Trump administration in foreign policy. They’ve noticed the focus on trying to get rid of the queers and women instead of legitimate Force structure reform.
They’ve taken civics classes and understand how the government is supposed to work much more than the general population. They might not yell and protest JD Vance, but I don’t think many want to endorse him either.

It’s a solution that would work in the next 7 years. Unfortunately I live in the American market where the automakers can’t make an affordable car to save their life. I’ve been looking at the used EV market for a year (Hyundai Ioniq 5 or other non-tesla EV) but I just don’t have a spare 20k rolling around in my pockets, nor a salary big enough to finance one. I do take public transportation when I can, but it just doesn’t go by my workplace
