>I'm tired of being nice to them.
Don't be. If your new neighbors are voting for the same policy that fucked up their city, make it known that you'll fight it and that those policies are wrong. Organize people, have community meetings on it, invite them to it and hash out those differences. People conform their opinions to the group, but if no one speaks up because it's uncomfortable to them then nothing will change. The left spent years marching in the streets, rioting and looting, there so be no reason why people in the country who want to live their lives can't peacefully protest that nonsense. Don't let them isolate because then they'll just keep radicalizing, they need to integrate with the community, not come in and invade.
Gender dysphoria is a mental illness by definition and was only removed for political reasons. Given that you're read up on DSM I'd at least presume you know this.
OMG! Same! My Italian Soda was a random example but my real case involved a guy who I’d gone out on a couple of dates with and we’d even had sex once.
He liked hockey and I happened to see the Playmobil NHL Stanley Cup Presentation Playset at a local store in the Sale bin. I paid around $5 for it. Gave it to the guy. He said he really liked it. We ended the date nicely and he said he’d call me. He never did, and when I texted him, I got noncommittal responses. Dude didn’t have the guts to tell me he wasn’t interested anymore so I pulled up some self-respect and didn’t text him anymore.
Pffft! His loss, and your dude’s loss too. You sound awesome and I’d date ya if that was yer thing. ;)
