Hey, born in WA, changed my name while living in Shasta county. I filed my name and gender change request with the county court and a few months later had a court order with the new name and gender. Then I used that court order to change my WA birth certificate.

Definitely agree with getting extra certified copies. The WA DOL will not return the copy you send them.

It’s super variable. Travel nurses in OB at my hospital were making $225 an hour. This was in rural CA where the average nurse made low $100k a year though. Some in red states are still in the $50k range though.

It really is. <1-2% of people de transition and of that over 90% cite bigotry and transphobia as the reason. So, 1/1000 to 1/500 is pretty fucking rare. Medical interventions are recommended based on number needed to treat, stains for heart attack need to treat 60 people to prevent one person having a heart attack, for strokes is 238. The NNT for trans people is 1, transition is literally the best supported and effective treatment in medicine.

Ask about ventrogluteal. Its a spot on your lateral hip.

Its less painful than the thigh and there isn’t anything important to hit like the posterior glutes.

There are like 2 station wagons on the US market. I’d love one, but I’m not into VWs and the Volvo PHEV wagon is only available as a $75,000 performance wagon and no one makes an EV wagon.

Yes on the sewing machine! A good sewing making is pretty cheap in the long run too. My mom has been using the same machine for 30+ years and my cheap brother machine has been holding out great. Plus, if your ambitious you can even re-tailor old stuff to your new fit.

Its crazy how much leeway he is getting. Back during the Bush years a guy in my town had a hang bush sign on a cardboard cutout of him hanging from a tree. The dude was arrested and held for “terrorist threats.” The same was not true of similar threats made toward Obama. This was in liberal western Washington. The fascists have always gotten handled with kid gloves in this country and it seriously needs to be addressed if we have any hope of coming out the other side.

I don’t, it was back in like 2002-3 and the local paper doesn’t have their archives up anymore. He ended up having the charges dropped, but months later.

Considering I took a suspension for “report abuse/harassment” for reporting someone threatening violence against trans people before I left reddit I think they are intentionally trying to encourage bigotry on the platform.

They are cutting some truly useful majors here. Women’s, critical race, and social justice studies are all fantastic foundations for social work and HR. HIT and health communications are very in demand and are only going to increase as our population ages. Really though, none of these are really truly useless. I’m in medicine and the best doctors and nurses are those that have non traditional backgrounds, those that did social sciences in undergrad on top of their prereqs all seem to have an easier time with the critical thinking required by the job. Florida is really intentionally destroying an entire generation’s future.
