That very much depends on the timing of the hormonal treatment. Transwomen treated with puberty blockers in their teens and estrogen dominant HRT after they reach the age of majority will have different bone structure than if they had gone through testosterone dominant puberty.
Obviously Krill Waves Radio.
I loved farscape when I first watched it on an antenna, later when i watched the last season in a day and a half because netflix claimed they were removing it. I’d like to watch it again soon.
A lot of accumulating pieces of luck. I started as a physical therapist, but burned out. A friend suggested a coding bootcamp where I made a new friend who used to be an occupational therapist. She got a job and then moved into digital accessibility (which we hadn’t really learned about but made sense with our backgrounds). Her workplace had an opening in accessibilty and they hired me, so I moved and that’s what I’ve been doing ~6 years.
It feels pretty disingenuous to ignore that the “legal” pathway to immigration is a matter of years and thousands of dollars; which pretty much always blocks asylum seekers. Now it’s also a matter of the luck to not be born into the “wrong” countries.
OOP’s wife will be illegal the moment she steps foot in this country, and OOP and I can agree that’s ridiculous. I just extend the same to lots and lots of other people.
You only get hours of itchiness?! I get welts that last for weeks and cause discoloration even once the swelling is gone
I care that some one wants to insult me. My go to response for anything related to my mom is “sorry you had to find that out”.
abused by both their patients who lack the mental faculties to know what they’re doing and their workplaces
Oh theres a number of patients who are of fully aware of what they are doing who are happy to have a chance to abuse someone they see as below them (either because of classism or racism or sexism).
Five years feels like an excessively long time especially if someone had a one off due to illness, or a condition that is well managed medically. I wonder if there is an appeals process.
It seems to me that dinner and cocktail parties have really fallen out of favor. It makes since to me though. Both my spouse and I work, so neither of us can do the prep work to get our home ready and a meal ready in time to have guests. Hosting norms would also have me pay for the food or drinks which fine once in a blue moon, but not something I could do frequently. I’m one of my few friends with a space that would even make sense to host in, so I’d pretty much be the only one hosting, so the only one spending money. It quickly becomes something I don’t want to do.
There’s also a reduction in affordable third spaces. I get third spaces needing to make money, but it’s so expensive to go out with friends and just hang out.
I’m on the very realistic visualization end of these and I wouldn’t say that I see anything with my eyes when I’m visualizing. It’s more like I have a viewing room in my mind that I can expand, or push away as I need, in a similar way that I can change the volume of the voices in my mind.
I’m a 5 on this scale (maybe a 4 1 on this scale (maybe a 2 if I’m distracted, processing other stuff) and I have a big component of kinesthetic sense and some emotional tone comes into play. It actually often takes work for me to turn ideas into words. This gets harder if I’m tired or sick or something.
Edits: I forgot the actual anchors.
I’ve seen (and think I prefer to stripes) ones that are made in granny squares with the high, low, and average for the week.
Are you an accessibility remediator? I feel like they are the ones who like PDFs the most.
What’s a pension?
Just finished The Vanished Birds by Simon Jimenez.
Not too far into Half a King by Joe Abercrombie and also about to start Best Served Cold by the same author as my commute audio book.
“end up staying awake staring at the ceiling all night anyway.”
This is still better for you than not resting. There’s been a tumblr meme going around that the MythBusters and Deadliest Catch crossover episode showed that just laying down and closing your eyes even if you do not fall asleep resulted in huge gains in cognitive function over not resting.
I call it apartment gravity. The gravity in my apartment is just way way higher than the rest of the world. What can I do but sit or lay around.
“What the fuck is wrong with me”
I think the hyper individualism of the US (and from what I understand Europe but to a lesser degree) leads to it being hard to receive validation or appreciation and harder to verbalize a want for it.
I’m sorry that you’re feeling under appreciated. I bet that you do make people’s lives better and that several people around you quietly appreciate you.
Thanks for bringing this whole topic up.
Just finished Best Served Cold by Joe Ambercrombie. It was a bit of a disappointment compared to the other books of his I’ve read, but maybe I need a break. I’m part way through Half the World by the same author.
