hii this might be a bit of a silly question but im going to the Kraków concert in October and I wanted to ask if anyone going there is going to sing the tour chant? i really want to do it and i have it memorized but im scared im going to be the only one there who knows it idk why😭

To start off, I am very concerned with the fact that it passed even though it only had 276 supporters, not the needed 361. I am fifteen years old so I do not know everything but I wanted to share my point of view as a teen. So I want to say that I think that this law/ban/whatwver it is called is bullshit. Maybe some of the members of the Europian Parliament truly do believe that this is to help catch offenders and protect children. But to me this looks as a masked mass surveillance. One of many examples i talked about with my friends is that we will have no privacy. None at all. I have never been in a relationship, but if I were to be in one and wanted to share private photos with my partner, I would not want an AI to scan it and put it in a folder (before any of you starts attacking me, even if I get in a relationship I dont plan sharing such photos before I am at least 18, I am not dumb). I can only imagine people trying to have private conversations, which we all have, but knowing that we are being observed 24/7. It is so dystopian to me that we live in a society where the government can literally put AI in our devices and people still are like “yeah that is a great idea!”. Besides, lets not sugarcoat it, it will not work. People will bypass it in the first week it’s in use, and honestly I understand it. I do not want an AI on my device scanning every single thing I write. It is not okay. And I won‘t even begin on what would happen if it got hacked. And don’t come at me like “oh but OP its the government it cant be hacked” yes it can, there have been hackers that hacked into FBI and other governments organizations and this is not different. I am very afraid of what the future will be, as this will not help. I am not a politician, I don’t have a fully developed brain and I am aware of that. But I am a teen concerned about his and his friends’ future. I don’t want to feel like I can’t even talk to my friends freely. Because bam, i text my friend “omfg im going to k*ll m*self” (i won’t; its just how we express frustration) and suddenly im flagged and what now? This will not work. It simply will fail, and it will cause more harm than good. What I am also confused AND mad about is that it only had 276 votes that promoted(?) the idea of the chat control, where it should have been 361 for it to pass, which in my eyes feels like it was going to pass even if it had 10 votes supporting it, because the voting was not fair. I am frustrated, and I as a disabled teen can’t do anything about it, and so here I am pouring my frustration onto Reddit.

so i'm 15 and it has been a bit better lately, i have been using it less. But one addiction just turned into a relapse of another one and I don't know how to stop it. I'm way too embarassed to tell my therapist, only one of my friends knows about this. But every time I don't use it for longer than a week I feel so god damn lonely. And I don't mean "oh i wish i had a bf" kind of loneliness, no, I mean gut wrenching loneliness that makes me cry at night because I do feel unlovable. I think that if i had a bf who actually saw me as a real boy and not a girl cosplaying a guy, I would be able to quit, or at least it would be easier. Idk, I live in such a transphobic enviroment that someone making me feel valid and loved would genuienly help so much. (i'm sorry if it's incoherent english isn;t my first language)

so, i'm 15 (already makes it sound like a non-issue but whatever). So I have been really close with this one guy since maybe 2023/early2024?? We were really close but in september last year we had an arguement. Basically I distanced myself bcs I was in a rly bad place mentally and I didn't have the energy. After that I apologized, he said it was fine and we moved on. Ofc it hasn't been the same ever since, but it was okay. But recently he has been very mean to me, and I mean it. Laughing at everything I do, at the way I look, I talk (i have a speech disorder so i stutter a lot and slur my words sometimes), my interests etc. And no, this isn't just "friendly banter". Today every person in our class left bcs they didn't want to attend the last two classes. I asked my mother to go home too as I didn;t want to stay in school for classes where we wouldn't do anything anyway. When I told him that, he got mad, said "whatever go away i don't like you anymore". Now smth about him is that he is autistic, and I have ADHD, and I can never tell whether he is being sarcastic or no. But both yesterday and today he has been extra mean to me so I just did what he said: I left the school without waiting for him. The two classes were eventually cancelled due to the fact that no one was left to attend them, so he left school early too. I didn't text him afterwards because I'm mad at him for how he reacted, but he is also my only close friend in the class, and other than him I only have a friend in the class above us. I don't know if I should end this relationship. I have been in many toxic friendships in the past and it affected me a lot so i'm not sure if it would be the right thing to do. At the same time, I only have two years of high school left and after that I wouldn't have to talk to him. But what he's been doing these past few weeks is exhausting for me mentally and I don't know how much longer I can take it.

hi, i'm 15(ftm), Polish, and there is a few questions that I wanted to ask, I figured this would be a good place to do so

1. Do you get periods when you're on T?

2. How long do you need someone to help you with day-to-day life after top surgery?

3. This is a bit more specific, but can you go on T when you have hypothyroidism?

4. Is it okay to change my chosen name a few times? I already did once bc the first one didn't really sit with me right, and the one i'm using right now doesn't either, but I don't want to annoy my friends by changing it again
