I never thought I'd be in this situation, but after having a very very deep filling roughly 2 years ago, I'm in the situation where I now desperately need a root canal. I have some kind of infection under the tooth and the emergency pain clinic I went to (dental pain fucking sucks) gave me antibiotics but said they couldn't give me a standard root canal because they only offer a ✨super special method✨ that isn't covered by insurance and definitely isn't a grift to suck more money out of people who are in serious pain. 5 other clinics I went to said the same thing.

At this point I don't know what to do. It really hurts and I can't live like this. I don't have the 200-300 euros they want for this and I'm already in debt. I don't think I can last the couple of months it would take for me to stabilise my financial position.

Does anyone know of any dental clinics that offer a standard no frills root canal? Bonus points if they offer general anaesthesia, local did NOT work on this side of my face last time. Thanks.

Heyo, I was on the tram earlier and a guy kept trying to steal this woman's bag and umbrella. I confronted him and tried to convince him to leave the tram but he wouldn't, so I stayed with him until he got off at the Hbf.

I was basically the only person to do anything at all, in fact other members of the public kept trying to get ME to leave HIM alone because they were scared he'd attack me.

Sometimes the passivity here really stinks. A man was physically intimidating and trying to steal from a smaller woman, and the only person to step up and say anything was the trans woman with barely any experience who struggles lifting 6 packs of sparkling water up 4 flights of stairs.

If something like this happens, I implore you to confront the aggressor. Collectively.

Funnily enough the guy tried to accuse me of being an AfD voter, which considering I'm a trans immigrant makes about as much sense as Alice Weidel being their leader.

Someone just tried to kill me by running me over with a van near the Hofmeisterstr tram stop. He literally sped up while I was crossing and there was like 1cm clearance. He must have been going 50 or something.

I know why this is. It's because I'm a visibly trans woman existing in public. I'm used to people threatening me, assaulting me and harassing me but this is something new and after what happened in Berlin... I don't know what to think. An I really viewed as that much of a parasite that people think it's fine to try to kill me?

I couldn't get the license plate because I'm hungover and was in shock and the bicycle cop I spoke to after was as much use as a chocolate teapot.

Please stay safe, siblings.

I'm reporting one of my coworkers for bullying and sexual harassment today. I'm really nervous and could really use some positive vibes and moral support. The fucked up thing is, the person I'm reporting is also a woman. My employer is an evil megacorporation which obviously makes things scarier.
