Found this on Dina's blog, so decided to do it myself. Pride Month survey time! 1. What’s your gender? Trans female. 2. What are your pronouns? She/her. 3. Is your family accepting? Yes, which I'm very grateful for. I know a lot of trans girls (and LGBT+ people in general) whose families aren't accepting at all, so I consider myself very lucky that mine is. 4.

Canaries are known for being more territorial than other birds, which explains why Tweety fights off Sylvester so well. Bob Clampett based Tweety's initial appearance on pictures of himself as a baby. Tweety's characteristics are b

Saying this just invalidates their pain and makes them feel like they don't "deserve" to be depressed, which will inevitably make them feel worse. "You have no reason to be depressed." - Yes, that's exactly the problem. They have no reason to be depressed, but they still are. "Just cheer up." or "Just snap out of it." - If it were that easy, they wouldn't be depressed in the first place. "Other people have it so much worse than you." - This comes off as trying to make them feel bad for feeling bad. It's like telling a happy person that they shouldn't be happy because other people have it better than them. "It's all in your head.
