Like yeah while in many ways Jack can't be made an icon in the same way as Frankenstein, Dracula or the Wolfman i'm glad people still ackowledge that despite lacking some of that iconography that makes the other monsters more recognizable that the movie itself holds up very well.

I've kind of been in the middle of an identity crisis but generally I feel like despite periods of joy I have these periods where I don't care about much, these fluctuations happening quite a lot. I feel so uncaring at times I just feel isolated from others on a deeper level. Like I look for others to ground me but I just can't find anyone.

Hi everybody, i've (22 AMAB) been starting to accept the fact I might want to go under HRT but I have no clue where to start. For context I live in the great state of California thankfully and about all I know is that planned parenthood does provide these services. Thing is i'd rather like to keep this a secret from my family who I share insurance. I'm willing to pay out of pocket if feasible if it means cutting down on risk of being found out but I won't lie my income isn't the strongest as i'm in the process of finding work with more steady hours (I have a job i'm rather confident will provide this lined up).

While i've been considering this for a month or two now i'm still not 100% certain this is what I want and I'm still rather fearful. That being said I feel like the clock is ticking for me and i'd feel more at ease if I simply had the medication in my possesion so I don't have to wait till dysphoria kicks in and I have to go through this process while even more fearful than I am now.

Bonus Question: Am I stupid for thinking I can hide this from my family? Like i'm not the most masculine individual in terms of build already, i'm slightly below average for a guy and on the lowest end of normal in terms of BMI. I don't know if there's any method to hiding the obvious changes.

Not the most comprehensive listing and mostly showcases their earlier stuff and while I really like a lot of their newer stuff and find those more recent albums to be much more consistent I like how in those early albums for every couple of bizzare novelty songs they dropped pure genius.

I'll be honest I was a little bit dissapointed when I first listened to the album but over the past few weeks it's really started to grow on me. Now it's definitely not one of my favorite albums by them but it's very unique and has a very soft artsy vibe i'm glad they experimented with. Definitely feels like they're building upon the sound established with BOOK.

Some of them as a laymen make a lot of sense, Harriet Tubman was an Army Spy so she’s Militaristic and Diplomatic. Ben Franklin was a Diplomat and Scientist so he gets the associated attributes. But what makes Trung Trac or Charlemagne scientific for example? I can see why Pachacuti is Expansionist but why Economic? Are there any leaders who you felt could’ve easily been another set of attributes and feel mischaracterized?
