Many hugs friend. I remember the immense feelings of disgust, confusion, and frustration when I started bleeding at 10 years old and began developing breasts. I didn’t want any of that. It felt so unnatural. I suffered a lot of health problems from hitting puberty so early, and ironically puberty blockers would have been an effective treatment but they either didn’t exist or simply weren’t offered back in those days.

This is the way.

I do believe that was the joke.

I think “is” is grammatically correct here. Teams is the name of the application, singular.

No, I don’t think they’re the same. I was taking the knowledge the poster above provided and brainstorming options.

I laid awake last night thinking if it would be possible to make an elaborate Excel spreadsheet to accomplish this. I need to research more about the specifics of menstrual cycles, but I think it wouldn’t take that much effort. It could be disguised as something else and shared freely, and people could store it locally to ensure privacy.

I don’t know much about menstrual cycles. Wouldn’t it be easier and just as effective to track with pen and paper?

Good call out - nasal sprays work wonders.

Glad to see the official recommendation catch up to what consumers have known for years - Phenylephrine doesn’t do shit. Pseudoephredrine is still the GOAT of OTC decongestants for short term use.

I think the tiniest sliver of silver lining is that republicans seem to want states to decide on a whole slew of things, meaning that any anti-trans legislation likely won’t mean I need to leave the country, only sell my house and move to another state and pray I can find a job there.

This timeline sucks.

I would bet that this is the correct answer.

Yes, this is still a crucial job role for most organizations.

Got my tubes tied 4 years ago. Happy to answer any questions about the process for anyone considering this route.

Russia wants a civil war. They want people scared and angry. They want people taking to the streets armed. Don’t fall into this trap - the propaganda machine is going strong, even here on Lemmy.

Absolutely. I think that the best path of action is to let our local politicians know clearly that this is the desire of their constituents, and push hard to vote in candidates that support this. All of these politicians started somewhere, so the best hope for change starts locally and grows from there as word gets out.

That’s a good question. I think we need a massive push towards it, from our local officials all the way to the top. Bernie may get onboard.

I really think ranked choice voting is the answer here. It will open up the opportunity for third parties to actually gain traction.

Yes please. Channeling my energy towards this future.

I’ve been using Plex hosted on a Mac Mini for years, multiple hours every day, and have never had issues like this. I hope you’re able to figure it out.

I once lived in a town of around 1,000 people. It had everything I needed in walking distance - a grocery store, doctors office, pharmacy, post office, restaurant, bar, and mechanic. A beautiful bike trail and river ran through the town. Fiber Optic internet was available, and there was a medium-sized town 15 minutes away with good jobs.

I just checked and the average home price is still around 100k. A 2br apartment rents for $750/mo. These places still exist, but they’re called hidden gems for a reason.
