'ts not your fault

at this point it's prolly best to just ban that fucker and that's it. I'd flame him or publicly humiliate him but that'd just turn him on.

ooooo, congrats on the HRT!

friendly tip: look into an AA that isn't spiro, if possible

anyway, best of luck!

as for me, I'm on a bit of an internet break, but I'm hopping in for a lil' while -- I'll be fully back tomorrow. have been having a rough time lately... the break helped me feel better.

spiro isn't even an antiandrogen -- it's a blood pressure med that happens to have antiandrogenic side effects. the doses they give you for a MtF transition aren't really good for your health, like it makes you pee a lot and makes you crave salt because it drains certain things from your body. it can also hinder feminization somewhat. I recall that shitty endo wanting to prescribe me spiro and being like "o yeah you will have less feminizing effects" like it was no big deal. yeah, no thanks.

personally I went with bicalutamide. had zero problems with it, it worked absolutely flawlessly, and it is actually designed for this purpose. CPA also is.

shit, sounds horrible

here we had like 37°C at times, already pretty hot. most of France got like 40°C, I guess we didn't due to being close to the sea, but, still. this feels like the kind of '2050 weather forecast' things they made back then to warn about global warming.

re: dog

that's shitty, sorry it happened to you

this sort of thing is why, well... I don't hate dogs, but I'm always nervous around the ones I don't know well.


anyway, if your jobs work for the two of you, that's good. I hope your family situation has improved, too.

as for me, I've been working a full-time job since May. it's nice, the atmosphere is good, not too much pressure, and I get paid well considering how much I usually spend.

I'm still battling depression, but eh. this time I'm on a treatment plan, pretty much gonna throw everything I can against it. venlafaxine, lion's mane mushroom, healthier diet, ...

I don't have AC over here. people with AC are still in minority in France, from what I read.

I just had my fan on 24/7 to deal with the heat. still managed to sleep and all, but, yeah.

and you're pretty right. many people died to this shit. (but meanwhile all they ever say is 'o yeah guess we haven't been recycling hard enough, y'all recycle harder pls')

Oh, yeah. Here places like Paris region also have crazy rent prices. That was one of the reasons why I moved to Montpellier, I can get a nice 29m² apartment for ~450€/mo. I'm looking for a better apartment tho (namely, with a separate bedroom), but these go for 600-700€/mo or more. I need to really start looking tho, I kinda just called one place and then had a bad burst of depression for unrelated reasons.

And hell, Ubisoft. I have a friend who worked there in Canada, he can attest that it's a shitty place to work at.

As for medication, that's what the venlafaxine is for. it's the antidepressant I was prescribed. So far it seems like it can work, but I'm still dealing with the side-effect insomnia. but it seems to be getting better.

Lion's mane mushroom is supposed to increase NGF and as such help the brain heal and form and shit, tldr it's good for your brain. Can't hurt to give it a try. I'm certainly having wacky dreams, so I think it's working.

Giant gummy bears? Bahaha. I remember that one. Took forever to eat and after a while the taste became a bit weird. I still think they're fun items, but kind of a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

re: family -- I'm going to visit my parents and sister for Christmas. Have anything planned on your side?

Yeah, definitely. I also think a looooot of the issues are systemic (or the rich fucks being rich fucks, which, yeah). It will probably take some amount of disaster before things really change for the better. But idk, we're entering a new cycle of crisis and they don't have any options left to save capitalism -- even economists that aren't radically left are starting to say it. At this point, they can either restructure production to really meet our needs instead of max profit, and steer away from capitalism, or continue slashing public service and workers rights and going full authoritarian. But even the last option has its limits -- who will there be to buy the crap they produce when everybody is too poor to afford things?

As for our nuclear power... about half the reactors are down, due to corrosion problems. Because, guess what, the neolibs in power have been cutting everything, including maintenance costs.

Heh.
