@sev hello, weirder sev!
Anyway goodnight things will look better tomorrow.
Or maybe not!
But I'll still keep trying.
Being able to externalize negative moods is one of the best mental health tricks I know. There's something about transforming "I feel shitty" into "feeling shitty is a thing that is happening to me right now" that makes it way easier to deal with.

listen humans are a bunch of garbage apes that fell out of the trees and somehow figured out space travel, none of us know what we're doing and we all need each other to survive

Random falling-asleep thought: it’s absurd and obscene that you can walk into any house of worship in the US and get religious guidance for free, but non-religious guidance is $200 an hour if you’re lucky.
Poll: do you wash new clothing before wearing it?

(ngl I am actually super irritated with the whole "add zombies to public domain works" thing but the joke was too good to pass up.)
Who decided to name this book "Feed" and not "Fear and Zombies on the campaign trail 2039".

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.
