If your a bear in 2020 you might as well be setting your tendies of fire, Bear tendies is an oxymoron. The facts are simple and ill give you three reasons to switch to bull gang.
The first is the Fed, here we have a team of watchful cucks doing all they can to ensure you never get any of those sweet sweet full on economic collapse tendies ever.
The second is the Orange one, Orange one no fell good when market bad, fell like no reelect, fell good when market fell good. The orange one will never have son-in-law buy puts across the market and tweet something to bring market the down so son-in-law can collect those sweet sweet bear tendies, well sometimes he will but that's not the point.
Third foreign market mimicry, god himself came along and gave china the curable aids, and when you bears though you were going to collect some sweet sweet full on economic collapse tendies those cucks shut down their market for two days.
Sure some would call all of this market cuckdom or minimally market manipulation but who gives a shit. The point is its not being cucked in your favor, there are clearly only two markets right now which are bullish and bullisher er or whatever. So if you think the markets are going down your just gay, thinking about gay shit with your gay thoughts.
Sure bulls are premature ejaculators but they have a team of cucks stroking them to sweet sweet tendies. So if you're a bear turn to your fellow bulls and tell them cuck you or whatever it is those premature ejaculators do to new initiates now, but do it for the tendies. The End fuck you all.
Edit* You'll never hear any of them say this market is too bullish, it going to the moon we need to shut it down.
I'm from Belgium. I initially considered myself non-op but have come back from that decision: I want a vagina. I don't however want to give up on my penis to create that vagina. Now I see that there are people who had their neovagina created with tissue from their peritoneum and didn't have the penis destructed to create their vagina. This sounds perfect for someone like me.
I would have to pay out of pocket since my insurance wouldn't be accepted by a US surgeon and my insurance would never cover more than 10k$.
How much money would I need if I want to pay for the surgery out of pocket?
I'm thinking about 25k$ surgery, surgeon's fee, travel and accommodation and hospital stay included. Does that come close? I'm willing to give up on the FFS I wanted, to be able to undergo this surgery.
I already found pictures on Wittenberg's website and I love the anesthetics of the peritoneal pull through penile preserving vaginoplasty.
1502
Frederick III rode down the streets of Wittenberg, bouncing on his steed as the hotshots clacked on the cobbled road. He had made the city his home since he ascended to the title of Elector; he navigated the streets with intimate knowledge.
Composed of the notaries of Saxony, the group was bound for the University of Wittenberg. The college has been under construction for a while, but finally the day had come. The late summer heat bore down on the Elector as he rode, but his mind was elsewhere. He had prepared a speech for the grand opening and rehearsed it to himself as he rode.
Despite the warmth, a large crowd of sweaty commoners gathered outside the doors to the university waiting for it to be opened so they could go home and tell stories about being present the day it opened. The crowd hushed as they saw the entourage approaching.
Frederick approached the makeshift podium on the steps of the institution. He was comfortable speaking in front of large crowds, as a good leader should be. And Frederick was a good leader. He had the love of his people. His charisma and confidence appealed to the men of his Electorate, and elsewhere. With a deep breath, his throaty Saxon voice boomed across the packed crowd:
“Welcome, friends! The doors of the University of Wittenberg are officially opened! For nearly a decade, work has been done on the physical campus, culminating in the building which you see today. A new center of learning and of free thinking has been born. In its soft embrace, the brightest minds of Germany will become learned men. As Duke-Elector of Saxony, along with the costs incurred to produce this university, I pledge 10,000 florins to foster intellectual growth within its new walls in the form of Scholarship. It is certain that someday, these hallways will produce fabulous alumni who will change the world as we know it! In the light of God, I open these doors.”
A servant released a group of Rock Doves; heads turned and as they flew overhead. The crowd began to clap (trust me, I was the doves). Turning his back to the applause, Frederick swung open the heavy oaken doors which creaked as they moved.
”I present to you: The University of Wittenberg!”
Little did Frederick know that in a few short decades, the course of Christendom, European history, even World history, would be forever altered by the men who walked through those very same doors.
Title- I'm expecting deserved downvotes for the title but i feel it's worth asking to gauge the community's thoughts.
If there was a piece of gun control legislation that included universal background checks on all permanent transfers (Transfers over 90 days in duration) and mandated NICS usage among all 50 states but it also removed SBRs and SBSs from the NFA, along with cleaning up other various laws regarding the definitions of what a pistol/shotgun/rifle are, would you support such legislation?
(I'd add suppressors but i'm very doubtful that such a compromise is possible, although it would be a nice add obviously)
I can't tell you how many times a country has 10 troops left but keeps jumping around
As a side-prompt, have any Marxists pinched their nose at Stoicism for similar charges. My understanding is that the philosophy is often simplified, or poorly interpreted far too often, which might open it to such attacks. So to clarify, have any thinkers of any commitments - who are knowledgeable in Stoicism - criticized it as a philosophy of capitulation.
(obviously, throwaway. But I like the username so much I might use it more.)
Intro
I'll be having "Penile-Preserving, Laproscopic Peritoneal-Pullthrough GCS" at MozaicCare, with Dr. Heidi Wittenberg, in around a month. Yep folks, the peritoneal hype train just keeps coming!
The peritoneal tissue will be used for the vaginal canal, and the scrotal tissue for the rest. My penis stays as it is. It's 1-stage surgery but a labia revision afterward is on the table.
This post is 0) giving back to yall, because figuring out this stuff all really sucks without this sub & /u/HiddenStill, 1) to encourage me to discuss post-op stuff afterwards, and 2) to answer questions and address alot of nonsense to be found online about PPT. Because, goddamn, the amount of uninformed "information" flying around about PPT is pretty bad.
Why am I doing this specific surgery?
Why "Penile-Preserving"?
Before I heard that non-binary transfemme GCS was possible, I was pretty ambivalent about it. Of course, I'd much rather have been born with the traditional female parts, but after my orchiectomy last year, I didn't feel like it was worth going further with current GCS tech. I did/do have bottom dysphoria, but it was about not having a vagina, not about having a penis.
Hearing about non-binary transfemme GCS was mind-blowing, frankly. It was all of what I wanted. I am transitioning to binary female (albeit gender nonconforming), but I have my reasons:
- As somebody once said: "if you can't join 'em, beat 'em"
- Insert the "Why not both?" meme here
- I'm autistic (ASD1), which basically means that rather than MtF (Male-to-Female), I am AtA (Alien-to-Alien)
Why "Laproscopic Peritoneal-Pullthrough" (PPT)?
This is the part that gets everyone's panties in a bunch.
Addressing the Confusion
There's been alot of noise about Dr. Ting & PPT, as well as some other people. It seems like, with most surgeons, the problem they have with PPT is the laproscopic part. A surgeon needs the training & equipment to use a special robot to go through your belly-button and do crazy stuff in there. Since GCS traditionally isn't done with robots, lots of surgeons don't have that experience/training. Also, there are different types/extents of PPT - as the surgeon for specifics.
As to the "surgeons don't recommend it because there's problems with PPT": hopefully you've read all about how PPT has been used successfully throughout the last few decades for cis wome

I was listening to the Andrew C. Fix's lectures titled Renaissance, the Reformation, and the Rise of Nations. While looking at the narrative of Luther's life, he makes a seemingly offhand remark claiming that Luther did not nail anything on the church door. Instead, he simply mailed his Ninety-five Theses to Archbishop of Mainz Albert of Brandenburg. Seemingly he expected him to respond in a sort of "my bad" manner and withdraw the indulgences that were solid under the theologically false claim that they were doing anything but reducing temporal purgatory penance.
Googling since then, I've seen all sorts of conflicting claims. So what happened?
