First off this is taken from this post -> https://hexbear.net/post/147779 with great info.
The Roman emperor that dressed up like a lady and had johns pay her as if she were a courtesan, plus she had an ongoing offer of a lot of money to anyone in classic times who could invent vaginoplasty. One of her contemporaries used feminine pronouns with her and she loved it when people referred to her as this one dudes queen or wife. Elegabalus is her name.
Monks/eunuchs that were castrated would regularly take phytoestrogens to stave off hot flashes in almost all cultures. In islam, it was taught to treat these eunuchs as women if they desired. In china, there were numerous eunuchs that were described as ‘looking like women’ and had many important roles in the imperial hierarchy due to the fact that they couldn't have kids but had the ‘genius of a man’. there was at least one circumstance where a bunch of villagers on an Aegean island thought that a secluded byzantine eunuch was actually a witch.
Amelio Robles Ávila (3 November 1889 – 9 December 1984) was a colonel during the Mexican Revolution. Assigned female at birth, Robles fought in the Mexican Revolution, rose to the rank of colonel, and lived openly as a man from age 24 until his death at age 95.
A lot of first nations/American Indian people that led resistances against settlers like Poundmaker were winkte (trans mtf basically) or whatever the equivalent concept would be depending on nation. They were seen as good leaders because they knew both worlds.
James Barry was a trans man who was a surgeon in the 19th Century. While he served as an officer in the British Empire, throughout his life he fought for better medical conditions for soldiers and locals, being demoted several times as a result. Credit @comr
In the Indian subcontinent, Hijra[n 1] are eunuchs, intersex people, asexual or transgender people. Also known as Aravani, Aruvani, Jogappa. the hijra community in India prefer to call themselves Kinnar or Kinner, referring to the mythological beings that excel at song and dance. In Pakistan, they are also called Khawaja Sira, the equivalent of transgender in the Urdu language. Credit @context

There were 14 candles starting and 14 candles when you end them being lit doesn't change anything.
Fun poem problem
There were five fine ladies from Carruther Who named their pets after each other. From the following clues, Can you carefully choose The pet which belongs to Sue’s mother?
Toni Taylor owns a hog :feral-hog:; Belle Bradkowski owns a frog :FrogPog:; Janet Jackson owns a crow :bird-bouncy:; The garter snake :warren-snake-green: is owned by Jo;
Sue’s the name they call the frog; And “Here Jo, here Jo” brings the hog; The name by which they call the pony Is the name of the woman whose pet is Toni; The final clue, which I’ll now tell, Is that Sue’s mother’s pet is Belle.
Idk hope this is some fun for y'all don't have a clear answer so I say discuss and have fun :soviet-heart:

MY BF MIGHT UNIONIZE HIS TECH WORKPLACE
Anyone with some experience on here? I'd appreciate some advice i can pass onto him
Family stuff :sadness:
spoiler
My mom is getting more and more radicalized and I can't do anything about it. If I criticize or disagree with her she'll take it out on me and everyone will agree with her or join in. She went to a church that does speaking in tongues and the snake stuff and im afraid she's going to start being more Islamophobic to my bf as a result. There's also a good chance she'll try forcing it on me as she let my brothers skip church when we were younger but always made me go. She was watching a televangelist the other day that was saying rock music is child abuse and I really can't deal with her being more...her I guess
smh this place is full of FAKE leftists
You're all FAKE!
I bet @Alaskaball isn't even called Alaska, @WhoaSlowDownMaurice isn't called Maurice, @aaaaaaadjsf isn't called AAAAA, and @viva_la_juche isn't called Juche or Viva! @baby_trump probably isn't even a baby or Trump!
This place is literally 1492 fauna factory. :19::84:
I'm chatting with a girl who is from China and is rich enough to own a nail salon in the center of Florence at age 29. Serious kulak material.
And even she loves Mao Zedong. He's good, folks
I wish to retract my previous support of union busting -- I thought it meant jerking off with your comrades.
"Facebook has a racism problem"
"Nextdoor has a racism problem"
Look I hate social media but maybe realise that Westerners are just very racist and social media isn't what caused that
Top tier mega thread. There's all the people you mention and more, and however uncountably many people who weren't able to realize their identity and just repressed it and suffered because of a bigoted society
Been at the office 20 minutes I just want to go back home. I'd be very productive, I'd work out, practice French, get a haircut, clean the house, buy my groceries, and get my Halloween costume put together. But instead I'll be here contributing nothing to society and becoming a less healthy person.
the sun literally makes all life on earth possible
we fucking orbit it why dont everyone worship the sun
Making the sun rise and changing the clocks to work time as a joke was not okay :angery:
