Yes they absolutely do

“Gender ideology” isn’t a real thing. It’s a term that solely exists to give cover for conservatives to argue that trans people shouldn’t be allowed to live safely, with rights and dignity, by creating the illusion that they are disagreeing with an abstract idea, rather than trying to erase trans people from existence

1. A gun is useful tool for acquiring meat in a sustainable way. Shout out to venison!

2. I am a trans woman. There are a lot of armed right wingers that would love to see me dead. They can try, but I’m not going to give them an easy time of it.

It’s possible that noise and popping you hear is the steam in the radiator flashing back and forth from steam to condensation. It means the condensate isn’t draining properly. This is not a problem you can fix yourself. You need to tell the building manager, who needs to hire a pipefitter. If you try to do this yourself, there is a high likelihood that you will damage something beyond your ability to repair, and you could very well seriously burn yourself while you’re at it.

An engineering or technology degree in a trades-adjacent field could be really beneficial, especially for someone how already has relevant hands-on experience. Something like controls, building automation, etc, might be a really good option for OP to build on what they already know

Ghoul shit

No thank you, I don’t want to learn more, I’m already terrified enough

I’m an energy engineer, so coding isn’t the main part of job, but I use Python a lot for data analysis. So I load CSV files and reformat the data into how a particular program or person wants it. I also dabble with SQL and PowerShell for configuring data pipelines, basically picking a subset of data out of a database and using PowerShell to automate that extraction and the upload to a server.
