Hey I remembered that y'all had asked about DIY HRT and Lily Alexandre posted a video just yesterday with a pseudo guide to how to do it safely.

https://youtu.be/o2Ggwe2j0Gc?si=b2PWkNHvpvZE-g65

Please if you check out this video, download it and rip it as well. Who knows how long we'll have access to it.

holy shit this is awesome, thank you so much!!!!!!

this is the ONLY way certain people can access HRT and i want to make sure those individuals stay as safe as possible. while it's best to try to get it through a medical provider when and where you can, not everyone has this option. thank you so much.

as suggested, download this video. i have downloaded a copy. if the video does go down, i will be happy to find ways to get it to people who need it. preserve this information. nobody deserves to go without lifesaving hormones.

Description: A can of la croix is sitting on a desk, a cockatiel stands up from behind the can, showing its head, and say "Peekaboo!" the person holding the camera laughs and the bird hides behind the can again, then pops up and says "Peekaboo!" the person continues laughing and says "Peekaboo!" too as the bird continues ducking up and down - when the bird pops up near the end of the video it makes an ascending whistle (like a slide whistle) when rising up, then a descending whistle when it ducks down, and an ascending whistle again while the person laughs harder.

musk is going to die in a Tesla explosion in 6 months after sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and we will never get a conclusive answer on whether it was a CIA car bomb or just a normal Tesla malfunction

Since I have made a pledge to discuss positive moves by the Trump administration for better political analysis, and recent events have been rough on that front, abolishing the penny is good move and also exactly the kind "unburdened by what was" policy move that comes from an administration that just listens to random people who bubble up from the discourse and says "sure, why not" to their ideas. Alas it will not be the first step towards abolishing all physical money it should be, but we take the wins that we get!

It's a sensible move, but one a Democratic president could never do because the entire right-wing media system would be screaming over this horrible infringement on our rights or some shit for months. And since pennies don't really matter, it's not worth dealing with that level of bullshit.

(Put me in charge, and I drop the penny, nickle, and dime, and retire the dollar bill in favor of dollar coins.)

only Nixon can go to China, only Trump can mess with the currency.

Feb 4, 2025 - Thousands of Los Angeles high school students walked out of class and marched on the city capitol in third straight day of Anti-ICE protests. (Source)

PROTESTS ARE HAPPENING. THEY ARE JUST NOT BEING COVERED OUTSIDE OF LOCAL MEDIA OUTLETS. DO NOT RELY ON MAINSTREAM MEDIA.

There was a huge Trans-rights demonstration last night in New York outside of NYU Langone hospital in protest of their decision to halt gender-affirming care under Trump's order. (Source)

Possibly the Most important thing you'll read this year...

The following is the philosophy of Charles Schulz, the creator of the 'Peanuts' comic strip.

You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just ponder on them. Just read it straight through, and you'll get the point.

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.

2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.

3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America pageant.

4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.

5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.

6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

How did you do?

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.

These are no second-rate achievers.

They are the best in their fields.

But the applause dies.

Awards tarnish ...

Achievements are forgotten.

Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.

2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.

3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.

Easier?

The lesson:

The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money ... or the most awards. They simply are the ones who care the most.
