1 day agoPardon the potentially ignorant question but are A-10s actually good in this use-case or is their deployment more of a “haha gun go brrrt murrica” performative thing?

is actually the go-to for transmasc DIY
Wait for real? Thats fucked up but makes sense since its a controlled substance in most places. Its actually really sad how transmascs need to find dealers in order to do DIY and I did not realize this till now.
That last bit has to be the wildest peice of HRT advice I’ve ever seen and I applaud you for providing it.Addendum: My initial reaction to the reccomendation to “go to a gym bro” was one of suprised mirth. However upon further reflection it is very sad the way many transmasc people must do just this in order to access lifesaving HRT. Its not funny and they deserve better.
(The situation is more complicated than that apparently but Ive edited this comment enough times.)
In many ways I have grown into the kind of person I needed in my life when I was at my lowest. I have been noticing this more and more often in the roles I play for the people in my life and it feels very, very good. That is my example of trans joy.
There are two men in my realtively small apartment complex that frequently yell angrily. One of them can be heard multiple times an hour at nearly all hours, with gaps when hes (i assume) sleeping or out. I have some sympathy for that guy because he must be going through a lot and not handling any of it well… but also men yelling is actually very triggering to me and so I kinda sorta havent felt fully safe in my home for like… months and months.
This sucks.
Does anyone have any info about how things are going in Cuba right now? I haven’t heard much in the past couple weeks and don’t know where to get reasonably accurate reports about whats going on with the oil embargo and all that.
You haven’t heard of it because it isn’t true. I got cypro mixed up with finasteride and/or dutasteride. My apologies.
I’ve been on spiro for over half a decade now and I both understand and don’t understand the hate towards it. Its definitely had its diuretic effects but I did not experience the side effect of brain fog. Taking Cypro (and Bicalutamide) makes one inelligible for blood donation (at least where I am) and since I genuinely enjoy doing that I’m not all that eager to switch.
talking about pooping.
Constipation is wild.
Ive been trying to suppliment my diet with “shakes” comprised of soy protein isolate and psyllium husk recently… and I havent been taking enough water apparently. I had my first bowel movement in days yesterday and since then Ive been pooping more or less normally AND Ive gotten out of the funk ive been for most of the week. Sadness must be stored in the poop.
I think I need to follow through with my intention to food prep normal high protein, high fiber foods and get my daily values the way the gods intended.

Down with cis!
Up with trans!
discussion of sexual assault and survivorship
So, first off, if a woman is opening up to you about her experience with SA it might be because she sees you as one of the girls, one of the gays, or both. Regardless, she sees you as someone worthy of some degree of trust. This reflects positively on you.
You cant really directly counteract someone downplaying their experience with SA. However, affirming statements about how the survivor didnt deserve it and/or what happened was still horrible can be very powerful in moments like these. If you feel like you can be supportive of them, it would be a good idea to let the survivor know that you can be there for them when they need it. Opening up and coming to terms with surviving a sexual assault can be a long process.
I have some experience with being on both sides of this, and the bottom line is that the best things you can do are to listen, care, and ask them what they need of you.
The death toll at the school is now up to at least 150. Though some of that were faculty it is clear that a majority of the casualties in this war have been elementary-age girls.
Its likely that his actual involvement in the current operation has been kept superficial so he doesn’t fuck anything up. Violent misogynists like him tend to obsess over their hatred of anything that might empower young women. Thusly, he must be very proud to be the head of an organization that just massacred over 100 little girls while they attended school.
No, dont even joke about that plz
Do you mean the 1st of March when you say the 29th?

Edit: It feels bad to unwittingly break BDS, at least cutting this out of my diet will be a good thing.
