She’s a loser living on charity- but a whiz kid on wheels!

My HRT plan currently is to go back to sublingual doses of my estrogen and get my provider to double or even quadruple my anti-androgen dosage. Testosterone is blocking my body from expressing itself and my body should be blocking testosterone instead. My estrogen level will probably go up.

My best friend and I used to get such a thrill reading Dave Marsh’s capsule reviews in THE ROLLING STONE RECORD GUIDE. He could be really scathing at times, or a champion of some bands and musicians (the Boss comes to mind), he could make you laugh or piss you off. But always entertaining.

Also. For anyone who needs to hear this this morning. Gender dysphoria is real. Protect the dolls. They made this social platform the unique community that it is and I want to thank them every. single. day.

I felt that STRANGE NEW WORLDS was a throwback to those gimmick episodes of the original series where they went to Roman planet or gangster planet. Those episodes were hardly better than VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA. The trick this time was to make it sci fi plausible to be also B&W.

It's something I've definitely complained about before. Why aren't we getting Star Trek stories pertinent to climate change, immigration, biodiversity, vaccinations, authoritarianism, AI, personal data privacy, misinformation, hate speech, shootings, corruption, wealth inequality, extinctions…

I forget who said it, but given the times in which we live, for a Star Trek show to have absolutely nothing to say is a total waste

Instead of telling me about who is a horrible person actively ruining life for us all tell that person and their bosses. It’s like what do you want me to do? Get angry? Okay, I’m angry. Great job. Accomplished nothing.

The Avengers Doomsday trailer seems made specifically as a trailer rather than cut from a movie. I think they do plan these event movies to have moments now that work as short marketing clips. It’s effective for those types of movies where spectacle and sensation matter more than story.

Blood tests show 112 estradiol, on the low end of the ideal feminizing range, but 257 testosterone, which is way too high. It’s barely below the standard dude range. That’s because we reduced my Spironolactone dose to just 50 mg a day when my kidney results came back skewed in April.

I’m watching the original Colombo series in order and the episode with Martin Landau as twins was stellar. And in a better world, Dabney Coleman’s gum-chewing police detective would’ve gotten his own series. Legit gave “genuine police officer in the 70s” vibes. Just stellar.
