on my way to the transfem gathering to call all the girlies cute ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

it was wild when i discovered vlad and natt a few months back and realized i’d already watched all their omegle trolling videos years ago. like… past me spent hours watching people pretend to be girls, realized nothing, and then purged everything from my head? how?

yes but my legs are comically skinny

You need to get the whole area done repeatedly, the follicles only die if they get zapped during a certain phase in their growth cycle. Typically laser sessions are spaced about a month apart to allow time for previously killed hairs to fall out and the remaining ones to make some progress in their cycle, you can expect to lose like 10-20% of the remaining hairs with each session.

Jenkins has fairly solid Gitea/Forgejo integration :)

sudo apt install systemd-zram-generator

Almost everything is Debian - my servers, my desktop and laptops, my family member’s computers, the living room media player. Only exceptions are my router (OpenWRT) and my Steam Deck (SteamOS).

Sync was a fantastic Reddit client (I started using it back in 2016), then during the API debacle the dev turned it into a Lemmy app and frankly it was the best on the market by a wide margin. But then he just vanished, and various things have gradually stopped working as it’s not keeping up with the latest Lemmy updates. When upvotes stopped working a few months ago, I bit the bullet and have now moved to Summit, which has the closest user experience to Sync of all the Lemmy apps I’ve found (although it doesn’t have anywhere close to the same level of polish as Sync did).

Yeah, same here (a bit over 3 months in my case). I don’t really feel strongly either way about my new (very small) boobs, but still have yet to notice any kind of mental/emotional changes. I’ve seen a few people online say it took as long as like 9 months before they noticed anything mentally, so I guess some patience is in order.

is that applicable if there was originally no hyphen?

Thanks so much for the reply! I seem to have forgotten about the decimal point, I meant to write 0.1ml (the syringes I use have markings in 10ths of a milliliter, so I just fill it up to the “1” mark and forget what unit I’m working with…). I’m injecting Ev @ 40mg/mL using ½inch, 26 gauge subq insulin needles, and yes I’m doing DIY monotherapy. I’ve tried releasing the pinch both before and after depressing the plunger, to no avail.

I haven’t tried injecting at a 90° angle, I’ll give that a try for my next injection tomorrow and see how it goes! (assuming I can find enough fat on my body to do that… I am very underweight)

The Blåhaj DIY community is new to me, I will definitely try asking there if my experiment tomorrow fails. Thanks again!

I know this is old, but I remembered this comment today and figured I’d ask since you seem to have some idea what you’re doing. How exactly do you prevent medication from leaking out after injection? I’m injecting (or trying to inject) 1ml estradiol valerate, and I’ve tried leaving the needle in for up to 30s, holding the skin pinched the entire time the needle is inserted, injecting faster or slower, but seemingly every combination I try results in multiple large drops leaking back out within a few seconds of removing the needle. Like, enough that it looks like nearly half of the fluid is coming back out. Is this something you’ve ever experienced?

AFAIK they still don’t support reclocking on anything older than Turing, meaning the GPU is stuck at the lowest clock frequency and therefore runs very slowly.

Selective Estrogen Reuptake Modulators can control which parts of the body are affected by estrogen, they’re sometimes used for non-binary feminizing HRT regimens to prevent breast growth while getting the other effects. AFAIK there isn’t really much in the way of real medical research on them with regards to transgender HRT specifically (the medications typically used are intended for breast cancer treatment) so they’re mostly limited to a few enbys doing DIY who don’t mind living on the edge.

I was just about to say this! I’ve been doing 4mg Ev / 5 days for about a month, got my latest results back just hours ago and it would appear that my trough level is slightly above the recommended mean level of 1100 pmol/L. Definitely going to have to cut back a bit…

from the HarfBuzz GitHub readme

Enby (from NB, from non-binary) is kind of an umbrella term to refer to anyone who doesn’t strictly identify with one of the binary genders (male/female). Agender would certainly fall in that category, as would other identities such as genderfluid, pangender, and many more. There are also plenty of people who don’t want and/or care to have a more specific label, and just refer to themselves as non-binary, full stop.

To the best of my understanding, genderqueer is also an umbrella term which means pretty much the same thing as non-binary, but has a somewhat more “radical” nonconformist connotation. There is significant overlap between the two terms and whether someone identifies with one term or the other or both is pretty subjective. Is agender genderqueer? If you identify with both terms, then it is :)

holy cow you brought MCP mappings into real life, the matrix is leaking
