"Trans women" should be written separately, as "trans" is an adjective.

"transwomen" and "transmen", on the other hand, are common dog whistles used by science denires to imply trans people are in a category of their own.

    Sure if it's possible for you then it must be possible for everyone 😐. I'm sure that this will work for my ass. It's not like I know from experience that I will forget anything of importance if I don't write it down.

    I keep a journal and a commonplace book (and a self hosted password manager) to remember anything of importance for no reason at all, silly me should have just remembered it. I just need to pull myself up by my bootstraps and stop being lazy duh.

    Yes, the hydrological cycle is global, of course none of the water just disappears. What you're missing is that the usage is local, data servers use mains water most of the time.

    Mains water must come from somewhere, the local area has limited processing capabilities, and heavy industrial consumption severely depletes local groundwater reserves faster than natural rainfall can ever replenish them, forcing nearby communities to bear both the ecological and financial costs of a utility network that was almost never designed to handle such strain.
