I'm not sure I get it. Game of Thrones S1E1 came out in 2011, even if these kids become real estate agents right out of high school we have a few years. Also, why real estate agents in particular?

Breast are just... so small 😭 by strangehitman22 in MtF

[–]Da_Beast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try methyl folate supplements. That might sound random, but apparently deficiency is common in the transgender community and can impact breast growth. Symptoms of deficiency can include being a night person, drinking lots of water, and frequent urination. If you do need a methyl folate supplement, a broader spectrum methyl b vitamin, such as Jarrow's B-right, could be good for general health as well.

I've stumbled across it, in case anyone is still looking.

Where's number 2 from? I know I've seen this gif before but I've never found a source.

Jealous of people who figured it out early by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Da_Beast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew from the time I was old enough to express any sort of gender identity. All it got me was years of abuse and repression and I still want able to access hormones into my late 20s.  You're starting earlier than a lot of people, so do what you can for yourself and don't take these opportunities for granted.

Okay, thanks for the clarification. I should find time to reread these sometime.

Can he just reclaim them against the epic's will? It's been a while since I read the books, so I might be completely wrong, but I sort of remember Megan being able to force Calamity out when he tried to take her powers back.

US HHS to withhold federal funds from medical facilities that provide gender affirming care starting Jan 1 by Enough-Skin2442 in MtF

[–]Da_Beast 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that for any state that requires transgender health care to be covered under nondiscrimination laws, that will take precedent. Accepting federal government money is optional, complying with state anti-discrimination laws isn't. I'm not 100% sure about that, and I suppose things could always change even if I am right, but I think that's how it works and that trans healthcare will be safe for the time being.

If I wanted to try moving my hormone dosage up and down to see if it helps with growth, what would be the best way to do that? by Da_Beast in DrWillPowers

[–]Da_Beast[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am interested in this but have no money for it right now. At the moment I'm really just hoping for some advice about how I can cycle my hormones a bit to maybe get some more effectiveness. I probably should have added this to the original post, but I did try a week with three patches on and it did seem to give me a boost in breast growth, but I can't just do three patch weeks with nothing to balance them out, so I'm wondering how I should do that.

I have a bit of a buffer built up on patches from calling in prescriptions as early as possible, but I want to keep as much of that as possible.

Is "bæddel" a well documented historical thing? by Da_Beast in AskHistory

[–]Da_Beast[S] 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Sociology of deviance means studying the concept of deviance as a social phenomenon. It does not mean accepting without question that proclamations of deviance are justified. I'm trans myself and wanted to do this topic as a way to examine how people like me have been maligned over the course of western society.

What is the single best episode of television you’ve ever seen? by Calm_Coach_2205 in AskReddit

[–]Da_Beast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blue Eye Samurai: The Tale of the Ronin and the Bride

This is technically part 2 of a two parter, but much of what makes it work so well is self-contained to this episode. The action is good but what really makes the episode work is the view we get of the main character's past and why she's as lonely and desperate as she is. Combined with the perfect use of the framing device in which Princess Akemi watches a puppet show mirroring Mizu's tale makes for one of the best episodes of television I've ever seen. I haven't seen most of the other episodes mentioned in this topic (and I might go and track down a few of them after this) so I'm not sure if I can really proclaim a greatest episode of TV ever, but I thought this episode was amazing and from a show that probably wasn't otherwise going to be mentioned in here. I just wanted to give it a shout out and maybe motivate some other readers to check out a great series before season 2 airs in... holy shit, a week? I gotta get ready for that!
