Yes

when the head gasket blows they won’t have to worry about driving the subaru anymore 😂

The PowerMac G4 Cube. Absolutely gorgeous design, arguably the best looking computer ever. Horribly impractical even for the time and especially nowadays.

“Normal” social media tends to deteriorate my mental health rather quickly. Whether it’s the infinite scroll or types of posts there or both, it generally sucks. I saw the link to this instance in a youtube video a while back (i can’t for the life of me remember which video, it might’ve been simpleflips? idk) and decided to check it out. The smaller user base, control over my feed, lack of advertisements, and a more human-friendly UI make lemmy much more pleasant to use, and easier to regulate how much I end up browsing. The smaller quantity of posts and comments can be a bit of a let down sometimes but that just gives me more incentive to post and interact since it won’t get lost in the void too. Overall it’s just a more pleasant experience. Being federated means it’s a bit more bulletproof so-to-speak than something like cohost was (I miss that site); if blahaj ever shuts down I can move to another instance and still get to use lemmy which is nice. As for matrix, I haven’t tried it yet.

Haven’t read all of the other comments or seen your hormone levels but your doc starting you on 200mg spiro is diabolical, i started on 50 and most start between 50-100. everyone is different so maybe you need that much but i’d talk to your doc about that.

As for the actual question, it took me like 8-10 weeks and ymmv. I also started on 4mg estradiol/day rather than 2. Also make sure you’re eating enough for fat redistribution. You’ll get there girl, don’t worry.

this is genuinely such a helpful comment and many of these things have helped my dysphoria in the past. not OP but thank you for this
