@green hear hear!
@kellerfuchs @literorrery When the only system we've ever lived under has been capitalism, it's hard to even recognize its fundamental flaws as more than the acceptable status quo.
Stockholm syndrome is as close an description as I can imagine to describe this-- though it implies that things were not always this way. Battered person syndrome might be a bit more apt. We're conditioned to expect and accept abuse from employers 'cause it beats starvation and homelessness.
@IrisKalmia *offers plush hugs*
@kellerfuchs I have a hard time seeing any relationship as healthy and non-abusive when it's mandatory. Your only alternate option is to become homeless and starve to death.
You also generally don't really get to chose where you work. They chose you, and you hope they won't make you suffer too much.

I'm with you, friend. Companies make seriously shitty people.
@vahnj :D

A friend of mine, Sora, was in a major car wreck. He's alive, barely, but he's going to be in rehab for a few months and medical bills are piling up. He could use whatever donations you can spare. Even a kind word or a signal boost would be much appreciated.
@Ratttz *gentle hugs* I'm ready and able to help however it's needed. ♥️
re: Libido-weirds
@KawaSeadrake this is so relatable on so many levels.
I lost that visceral, tangible passionate feeling after 7 years on HRT, then I had the orchiectomy, and now a lot of that is just... gone.
I missed it terribly when it was vanishing. I cried so many tears over its loss. These days, I only barely remember what it was like to have those desires and feelings.
I tried jumping back on T to see if I could get those feelings back, but it went a lot deeper than hormones, for me.
Happy manufacture day, @indi!! :D
@Fuego you kind of are ♥ ♥
