The best time to transition was 14-16 years ago. The second best time is right now!

Take small steps. If it feels right keep going.

so… how much did does the us government give its auto industry?

They gave us auto companies 81 billion between 2008 and 2014, and continue to subsidize the industry to this day.

I was about to write a criticism of this infographic then I rechecked and its been updated and fixed my concerns since I last saw it. Good job!

Edit: Okay found some issues.

Thunderbird is american. Its run by mozilla, which is a california based non-profit. So still american not EU. But also its an email client, whereas gmail is an online email service provider. There are EU based email services that should be listed instead.

…

biden basically did that already. ever noticed there are no byds on the road in the us?

i seem to recall it wasn’t an outright ban, but unreasonable tariffs on chinese evs specifically. a soft ban, but enough to be as effective.

You are going to change slowly and gradually once you start HRT. That’s the most important thing. Get that started as early as possible.

I would advise you to freeze your sperm before you start HRT, unless you are sure you don’t want children. The informed consent documents listed two irreversible changes, sterility and breasts.

I’m about 3 and a half month on HRT. I barely have breast shape at this point. My measurements have not changed enough that my old clothes no longer fit comfortably. You’ll have time to adjust to the changes. You’ll have plenty of time to gradually upgrade your wardrobe, and learn makeup, there’s no need to work these things out in advance.

Delay is fine for everything except the HRT and cryopreservation if applicable. Get that E, sis!

They make bad small phones that people don’t buy because they’re bad, then conclude its because people don’t buy small phones.

They make phones like the palm palm, the second phone you have to pair to your other phone, for those days when the big phone is too big. Also the battery didn’t even last a day. When it doesn’t sell they say its because it was small, not the everything else.

What heat source are you using? In my experience induction about matches electric kettles.

Yes, but…

Cooking itself also does this. If you are searing or frying that will also release dangerous particulates. Make sure you have and use a vent hood that vents outside the living space when you cook regardless of fuel.

I can say from personal experience of using every kind of home stove, that gas is both the worst and slowest. Boiling water for my morning coffee is fastest on induction, which takes about half the time as resistive or radiant electric, and gas takes nearly three times longer than that.

Though it might just be the american style of burner that directs the flame away from the center of the pan. I’ve not yet tried any other kind.

This but unironically. Conservatives going insane over trans people is what made me decide to learn about trans people, and I learned a thing or two about myself in the process.

What’s stopping you, and what can you do about it?

Its one of the most effective ways to prevent male pattern baldness.

no. that’s thermodynamically impossible.

though it is true that fission and fusion are opposites, you cannot gain energy by fissing and fusing the same material. There’s an inverted bell curve where medium sized elements are the lowest energy state. You can get energy by making atoms more medium, fusing the smallest atoms or fissing the biggest ones. Doing the opposite costs energy.

I got HRT through my doctor in the US. They gave me a big informed consent document with lots of details and warnings. A lot of the warnings are a bit fearmongery, like you might have a higher risk of this specific cancer, based on one small study decades ago.

Despite all that, there were only two things described as irreversible changes, breast growth, and infertility.

If you’re an adult and no longer have an actively growing skeleton, and have taken precautions against the two above changes, you should be able to stop the HRT and go back if needed.

The changes are cumulative and gradual. You burn fat from everywhere, but deposit it based on your current hormones. With time fat will appear to migrate, and will migrate back if you stop the HRT.

Edit: specifying nationality is useful information when discussing supplied documentation.

I’d much rather they make California the 13th province.

I did not remember my dreams before E.

hi fellow arch girlie!

I’m interested I’d be happy to help try and find all the bugs and whatnot.

What specifically do you think that OSM maintainers should be doing to stop this instead of maintaining OSM?

Also coup has a p.

I am experiencing this as well. I’m few months into HRT and its had a remarkable effect on my mood, and that changes a ton.

I still lack some amount of self reflection, as I didn’t notice this change until reading your post. Making your brain comfy has some very far reaching effects.

ur great too :3

I’m about 3 months in. Breasts are noticeable if know to look for them. Still plausibly just defined pectorals to those not in the know.

Changes are cumulative. More to come!
