Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

"The Hustle" is a sucker's game. Working yourself so hard for your "career" that you cause physical and mental harm to yourself is a sucker's game. In the end you wind up profoundly unhappy and profoundly unhealthy (physically and mentally both) while some asshole sitting back in his expensive chair, behind his expensive desk, in his expensive office (when he bothers to be at the work place at all!) gets wealthy off of your labour and health.
At some point you just have to decide "this is enough for me" and go into maintenance mode. Start doing things for yourself instead of some rich asshole. Learn to make do with what you have and find joy in what you do that's not your work.
