All Women Must Stand Together on International Womenβs Day
As the forces that seek to restrict our rights gain strength, we reflect on the fact that trans or cis, as women, we are stronger together.
All Women Must Stand Together on International Womenβs Day
βIf we turn against our trans siblings β and against each other β we only end up deepening the divisions that others are so keen to sow amongst us.β

Fwiw it took about two years of an obsession with tracking intake to reach a healthier relationship. Not so much demand avoidance, but so much data it became a comfort blanket. Collection became the point, rather than outcomes.

So that pizza was a lot of calories, but eating it meant the 16 miler the next morning was sluggish and uncomfortable. Taking in the same amount in different form led to a better session.

What I'd say is that data is data. An individual meal is one data point, and what matters to is isn't the data themselves, but what they lead to; insight.
I have a similar issue with collecting it, but when I was ultra running I had to understand the effect of choices.

To be fair, there is a bit of discussion about what HP means in practice, given eight hours of rest restores them.
Personally I see it as a proxy for fatigue and injuries, rather than just all injury.
A bit of suspended disbelief needed there as it doesn't deplete naturally in an adventuring day.

One of my parties has an artificer, heading into Icewind Dale at the moment. It would be reasonable for them to build one.
I do have experience of wheelchair use; partners current chair is 10 years old. I'd be inclined to limit movement speed, and put constraints on terrain.

If you want to restore limbs, that's a seventh level caster; Regenerate. So you need to find someone and pay them enough to do the job.
There might be a debate around his the limb was lost. Regenerate allows for "severed" but if the limb was crushed or burned that may not work for the DM.

Notwithstanding that some people want to see aspects of themselves available in the game world, there are many reasons for using a wheelchair that a healing potion or spell won't resolve; tourettes for example.
The mechanics of a chair are easily available, even low level spells can add to that.

Not a surprise. That would certainly align with the brain imaging research that demonstrated they were all similar in terms of brain structure, but in different areas of the cerebral cortex.

Zulu time is GMT, the time zones are coded by letter, so as you move into mainland Europe you move into time zone Alpha. So the Falkland Islands operations against the Argentine invasion was all carried out using Zulu time despite FI being in Whiskey (from memory)

I read a book by Andrew Marr called "My Trade" about twenty years ago. He talks about an example of someone sent to Liverpool from London, discovered the lead was false but reported it anyway to justify the trip.

In many ways what that did do was give her an opportunity to point out that Cunningham's treatment of Dr Upton constitutes harrassment. It also gave Mrs Peggie plenty of rope to hang herself.

Peggie is more about how they handled the disciplinary aspects of her behaviour.
Whilst NHS Fife followed best practice around trans inclusion that's not what's under consideration.
That said, the way they're spamming multiple further cases suggests they're not confident.

I was doing accessibility training in Kings Cross about four years ago. I invited the delegates to use the "accessible route" in the tube station going home and coming in the following day.
They were all surprised by just how inconvenient it was; significantly longer distance to walk.

Ok
Given the evidence of the SNP, can you see how "just trust us, it'll all be ok" isn't particularly compelling?
We see a failure to address homophobia and transphobia in both Westminster and Holyrood. We see equivocation about enforcing buffer zones.
And then, we see appeasement from the FM.

That's not an option that's available for cis people, so the risk management options branch at that point; increasingly secure housing cf "other gender" housing.

The arguments in FDJ Vs MoJ treat the provision of gendered housing as the case. It's a highly controlled environment with extensive risk assessment that applies to all incarcerated people.
The differing treatment of trans people is that a risk assessment can divert them to "other gender" housing
