I'm a leftist trans gay fox girl. More than one thing can be true at a time. I believe in agency, subjectivity, and beauty.

What most (US) providers do:
-stick you on a low to medium dose of oral/sublingual estradiol and spironolactone, usually one after the other (better to start with e though).
-check liver function
-iterate dose based on tested hormone levels and how you subjectively feel
-if you can't get where you want on sublingual estradiol, switch you to patches or injections
-give progesterone if you specifically ask for it.
Providing HRT shouldn't be specialty care. It's not really that complicated. A primary care provider can get the necessary info in like an hour of reading.
Unless you have an unusual endocrine situation, anyone who says it's particularly challenging either is misinformed or has a gatekeepy agenda.
Heck, trans people have been doing it DIY using grey market pharmacies for ages.
@Vann@glitch.social how did you find that post? I mean, I dig it, it's a good post. But also ?

Thanks to @nightpool for this #mastoadmin tip:
When witches.town goes down in the next few days, you may notice Mastodon running more slowly, as Sidekiq workers try to contact it and have to wait for the request to time out before they can move on to the next job.
To handle this, AFTER w.t goes down, log into your server on the back end, run `redis-cli`, and enter:
sadd unavailable_inboxes https://witches.town/inbox
This tells Mastodon not to bother trying to talk to witches.town.

The film Battle Royale is sort of in-between. There's a dilution of the emotional core of the book that's really unfortunate due to it getting more caught up in dramatic visual horror elements.

Please be compassionate to the people who pop up on other instances in the next few weeks asking if anyone knows why witches.town is down.
(Not to say that you should feel bad if you enjoy PUBG straight! The mechanic makes for both a good story and compelling gameplay.)
In the midst of PUBG etc, I want to mention that the original Japanese novel Battle Royale is an excellent work of tragic social commentary. The participants are a class of nonconsenting highschool students, and the scenario is presented as cruel and unfair from the word go. The Hunger Games drew a lot of inspiration from Battle Royale. It's worth you time :)
You say "you're going again the natural order of the universe!" like it's a *bad* thing.
I should commission art of a fox in a space helmet, striking a heroic pose in profile.

A thing about me is when I notice the moon outside, I'll excitedly say "hi moon!" Much of the time it's internal, but a whole lot of the time I say it aloud.
