Not a ; the soul of a gay man wakes up inside the body of a highly attractive and curvy woman. He retains all his memories and personality traits, just carried over into a female body and brain. Is it gay? Would you do it? Consider that this is essentially a woman with an extremely high s*x drive and is also willing to do anal and other freaky shit most likely.

!nooticers 6 million
GENEVA, Feb 7 (Reuters) - More than six million people could die from HIV and AIDS in the next four years if U.S. President Donald Trump's administration pulls its global funding for programmes, the United Nations AIDS agency said on Friday.
Although a waiver was placed on HIV/AIDS programmes in last month's U.S. foreign aid funding freeze, many concerns remained about the future of treatment programmes, the deputy executive director of UNAIDS told reporters in Geneva.
"There is a lot of confusion especially on the community level, how the waiver will be implemented. We're seeing a lot of disruption of delivery of treatment services", Christine Stegling said.
Trump put hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of foreign aid donations on hold for 90 days upon taking office on January 20. In the following days, the U.S. State Department issued a waiver on the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) - the world's leading HIV initiative - for life-saving humanitarian assistance.
While welcoming the waiver, Stegling stressed the situation remains chaotic.
Amid a broader decline of funding, Stegling warned there would be a 400% increase in AIDS deaths if PEPFAR financial support is not re-authorized between 2025 and 2029.
"That's 6.3 million people, 6.3 million AIDS-related deaths that will occur in future...Any penny, any cut, any pause, will matter for all of us" she said, urging U.N. member states to step in.
"In Ethiopia, we have 5,000 public health worker contracts that are funded by U.S. assistance. And all of these have been terminated," Stegling said.
She highlighted that community clinics were facing the biggest interruption as they are "entirely dependent" on U.S. government funding.
She expressed concern that some people may not come forward for treatment, which could in turn increase new HIV infections.
U.S. donations account for the majority of global funding for the U.N. programme that operates in 70 countries, leading global efforts to end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030.
Trump's administration says it is reviewing all foreign-aid programmes to see if they align with his "America First" policy.

β¦ in a subreddit for listing available federal job positions.
Many are upset about this and start arguing in the comments.
There's a literal fricking hiring freeze, what do you want from us?
To follow the rules and not try to start some uprising here?
What federal hiring process? No one is getting hired right now, and also, who would even want to join the government at this point? You'd have to be desperate or stupid to hop on a sinking shipβ¦
People are still getting hired. Jobs are still being posted on USAJobs. So go on, delete your comment or edit it to admit you didn't think before commenting.
I did think before commenting and stand by my comment that anyone thinking of joining the federal government in this moment is either stupid or desperate.
Even if you do get hired, everyone received the mass "please resign!" emails and I doubt that trend will end any time soon. And if you get hired, you're likely probationary which is an awful spot to be in. No one's job is special or safe or can't be done by a Musk crony according to this administration.
I mean, if you're already trapped in fed gov, do you. But now seems like an especially bad time to hop around because what boss is going to bat for a new employee?
Plenty of people want to join. There are still posts on this very subreddit of people looking for advice, showing their TJO and FJO. You want to call them stupid or desperate? Fine, but don't try to subvert the reason for the subreddit existing. So both your points, that no one is getting hired and no one wants to work for the administration are rendered null by the facts.
Yeah, good luck to them π I truly hope it works out.
Amen. My heart goes out to you mods, I can't even imagine how busy you guys have been sifting through the extra 100K new bots and their nonsense.
If anyone wants to really visualize why this is necessary then everyone's history is accessible.
ALL (no exceptions as of 43 comments) who want non-stop rage bait politics here have never before set foot in this sub prior to the EOs.
ALL who don't like off-topic nonsense and support the mods, hammered with downmarseys, are top contributors who've been helping the sub for months/years.
We are being brigaded by trolls and bots, the only people who can possibly abide are the trolls and bots.
Do remember there are a lot of feds who have created burner accounts in order to participate without issue. Does make it much harder to tell who has been here before and who is a bot or troll.
New accounts would support that possibility, but none of them are new - all long term /r/politics users never here before.
Plus burner or not wouldn't change the fact that it is off-topic on this sub.
Did Elon post this?
Removing posts about what is going on only serves the interests of the new administration. Reddit should be a safe space for people to converse about their reality as a fed, or anyone affected by these EOs. We should be kept aware as the general public so we know how to help and join the conversation. Silencing the voices of people who are worried or unaware of the situation is how we got here and how we make it worseβnot better. The teaching and nursing subreddits almost never ban ANYTHING. Why? Because everything is relevant in their public facing jobs, everything reaches them one way or another, the feds are no different. Shutting down the conversation is wrong and leads to/is fascism. Stop upholding arbitrary "rules" that support it.
Post them to /r/fednews where they belong.
It doesn't even belong there, but rprz and the other mods are terminally chronically online reddit jannies who are ignoring rule #5 of their subreddit.
Rule 5 there states no politics, but you can discuss current policies. So discussion of the Fork in The Road, the other HR(at)opm.gov emails, the RTO memos, and notices to probationary employees should all be valid.
Given that our work has been politicized to a higher degree than at any point in the past, I don't think the Mods are violating their rules.

If that's what were happening I'd agree with you. However the 100,000x fold YoY increase in the usage of the words "Nazi", "Fascist", and "regime" to describe our democratically elected government suggest to me that reasoned discussion of government policies is not primarily what's going on. When subredditors describe what they're doing as "doomscrolling" that word seems to have a negative connotation, in my mind. When "Solidarity from Moldova" type posts are upmarseyd to the top of the subreddit, that doesn't feel like a well-considered policy analysis by an informed stakeholder.
Enjoy a dead Reddit for a while, then.
Amazingly we existed just fine from the dawn of Reddit until a couple weeks ago when the bots invaded. We chugged along even without an off-topic chicken little post every 5 minutes.
That's funny, you're going to chug along with what job postings?
Yeah, thanks.
That's part of the problem. This can't exist in a vacuum. Everything that impacts hiring needs to discussed.
Feel free to post anything pertaining to the federal application process (e.g. questions, concerns, suggestions, tips, experiences, etc.).
The day one purpose and rule 1 of this sub.
What about the application process has changed due to the EOs? Go ahead, I'll wait.
Nothing? Correct.
Fednews (and THOUSANDS of others) exists, until an EO fundamentally changes the application process it doesn't belong here.
You're extremely pressed.
Uh, no. I thinkβlike many of usβhe's just getting tired of the 24/7 complain fest that this sub has devolved into. Go complain to your family and friends. Some of us come here for useful informationβnot to read people's diaries.
Not much federal hiring practice activity going on right nowβ¦
checks usajobs, sees plenty of jobs posted
Gaslamping doesn't work when people have reality right in front of them...
They're not "gaslamping"
They said "not much" is going on right now which is very true. Just because there is some still happening doesn't mean that the majority of possible positions are under a hiring freeze
Thank you. The person accusing gaslamping is literally gaslamping lol

The movie starts off where this white trash redneck effortlessly steals chad's gf in a dangerous street race
So he goes to Japan where a real challenge awaits, stealing ricechad's gf
She immediately is into him, she shows no loyalty to ricechad
So he wins some gay car race and steals her
I literally cannot think of a more @BWC plotline if I tried

So I make breastmilk and memorial jewelry and there's a big company in China that manufactures the jewelry. There's actually even a really big well known brand that's I've seen that uses their jewelry and lots of smaller businesses do too. I've looked and looked and LOOKED to find something else but there's nothing like them.
My husband is a Trump guy even though he says he doesn't like him. We've had discussions about the tariffs and he's saying that it's corrective to bring jobs back to the US.
Well I was just talking to the owner that manufactures the jewelry and he told me that they might have to shut down because they basically sell at wholesale and barely make a profit and DHL and UPS are charging more for the headache of the tariffs. He's not sure if they will have to pay or the buyers will have to. I'm hoping a praying that it's us as the buyer.
So I told my husband this and he was like, "well, it's just the market correcting itself." I was like, "you're not even a little mad that my business might be affected?!" Idk what he said but he was laughing and I blew up in his face.
I told him that he doesn't care enough about anyone but himself. He doesn't care about women's rights, lgbtq+ rights, immigrants, not my business, nothing.
Now I locked myself in my bathroom and I'm crying. He keeps trying to talk to me but I won't talk to him. Talk me down man.

Vs
Background: /r/straighttransgirls is where the s of the Blaire White variety go to rant, away from their overwhelmingly transbian ("it's maam!") counterparts.
OP wonders if these euphoria boners often discussed on the main trans subs are real or are just a terf psyop. Commenters proceed to fight over:
AGP is a fake term and transphobic to even mention
AGP is real but it's perfectly fine
boners indicate transbians are just fetishizing perverts
it's fine to get boners over spinny skirtsβ¦not sexual at all
Excerpt:
[β]AbsolutelyRidic 7 points 23 days ago
[euphoria boners] normal things that happen if you have a peepee, aren't taking estrogen yet, and aren't constantly miserable.
[β]Pink_T-Goddess 0 points 23 days ago
Oh shut up gurl.. stop making stuff up.. I didn't experience this so called "euphoric boner" even when I haven't transitioned back then and was just starting on Estrogen... I literally have fluctuating libido but I don't get a "boner" by the sight of me looking like a very beautiful woman.. This is not a thing, you guys are just making it up to cover your fetishes... Having a fetish is not a bad thing but don't lump is in with you.. Don't treat our existence as the same as your existence...
More coping seething and coping again in the comments.
