went off full-dose testosterone and am now taking hormonal birth control

which circle of hell is this

the trans experience

@lzg can you even bring "normal" pencil sharpeners onto airplanes? genuine question

like, are men's razors allowed?

living in the pearl district through a third winter

and I have finally been influenced into buying a long puffer jacket

the kind that goes down to your knees

zip-up sleeping bag dress, basically

my body is ready

this morning, I was wearing a north face thermoball jacket

which is the jacket I wore all last winter

and though it was only in the 40s outside, I was cold

and it’s only EARLY OCTOBER

anyway someone convince me not to buy a puffer jacket please

more specifically, this puffer jacket which will probably make me look like the michelin man

missing my old lovesac rn tbh

would it have fit in this apartment?

not practically, no

do I miss it anyway?

yes

@ryanc there are a lot of cleaning channels on youtube! I don't watch any particular ones but the one I've been watching this week (midwest magic cleaning) is a good one to start with because it runs the gamut of cleanliness and he also gives shoutout to a lot of other channels throughout his vids

I grew up in a house that, in retrospect, I would not call "clean" or "well-kept"

but I didn't realize ~how~ bad my childhood home was until my late 20s and how it was skewing my perception of how I treated my own space

so over the past couple of years, I have spent SO MUCH TIME taking notes on other people's apartments and watching cleaning videos like I'm learning how to adult for the first time 😂

anyway I realized today that I've become the person who takes the trash out everyday

regardless of what it is

even though I'm just a single person

and isn't that what we call ~personal growth~ ✨

growing up, we took the trash out ~at most~ when the can was full, and often it just piled up around the can for days 🫠

@mnemonica okay but you actually listen to the radio?? like not spotify radio, a literal radio???

@onelson @mnemonica I don’t believe it

@onelson @mnemonica man, now you’re reminding me I was thinking of buying an emergency battery station during Black Friday this year

TIL https://sadservers.com

tl;dr they give you a broken server and have you figure out how to fix it

like a CTF, but for devops instead of security!

@emilygorcenski when I saw my current PCP for the first time, he asked me how tall I was, and I said "I don't know"

which was technically true (had never been measured) but I'm sure a guess would have sufficed

somehow he was unphased by a 30-year-old not knowing how tall they were 😂

@emilygorcenski @james it's 2:45am, you can't expect me to do math

@emilygorcenski @james exact conversion for 188cm would be 6'2.0157" though, no? where did it come from 😭

@james my doctor put that I am 6’2.016” in my chart and I have no idea how the system arrived at that level of specificity

creating a giant spreadsheet of all my blood test results from the past few years so I can track progress

and ? how is it possible that with all the work I've put in, some of my values have gotten worse??

@vaurora some of my labs were through one medical, which doesn't do direct exports to my chart :(

just had cottage cheese for the first time and idk how I feel about it tbh

had the big floor version so bought this tiny desktop fan for my office and ☺️ it’s so cute and smol

also works really well!
