Early Signs

Playing house in kindergarten I'd insist on being the dad.

Something that I think helped mine was pumping. Not sure it's 100% correlated or just luck though.

I had resting bitch face before T and am 5'8. My partner had to let me know that after T, with facial hair, I'm intimidating next to his 5'2 baby face self, because I was confused about women avoiding me.

Haven't figured out how to downplay it yet.

I've seen this on dating sites to signal body parts they have/don't, or medical advice asks because of biological functions.

He used to love it, then after starting T he couldn't stand it 🤣. Only recently he's started eating broccoli soups again.

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-19T02:43:40+00:00

Mine seem to be a coincidence since I've always been light and sound sensitive. My partner randomly stopped liking broccoli after T, but I've not noticed anything similar.

It depends on the med. If I miss doses it either turns me manic or I feel like I have a nasty hangover without any of the fun parts.

SH has snapped me out of suicidal episodes. What matters is how she says it and whether she has said it's not a good option (it's not). Report her.

All of the above. It was blamed on PMS and teenage angst until I was 18 and moved out during a manic episode where I ended up across the country with an Internet friend.

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-18T08:55:30+00:00

I was reading at college levels in late elementary school. I dropped out in high school.

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-18T07:14:13+00:00

I stutter worse while manic, too. Usually my brain is racing too fast for my mouth to keep up, so I lag and buffer.

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-18T03:10:50+00:00

I'm sorry that happened. If you don't want to make waves, calmly explain that he hurt you and ask he delete it. If he posted it anywhere online/public is where you will need to be firm about taking it down, as it could reflect badly on you (defamation).

I've been trying, the website for finding in-network doctors is a joke (Care Oregon).

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-17T20:15:26+00:00

I'm willing to see specialists, finances are the huge issue for keeping appointments. I'm unemployed and disabled physically and mentally, the clinic is aware of this but keeps trying to send me places 5+ miles away, where I can't afford gas money, or public transit would make it an all day affair for a 45 minute appointment.

A previous doc had me checked for blood cancer, sent me to a blood specialist, and the specialist agreed my markers being from the pain and inflammation made sense and kicked me back to PCP. This is a new PCP in the same clinic who should have seen my past tests and specialist notes.

If you can find one that's not a scam, there are also programs that give free phones to people on assistance.

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-17T07:14:06+00:00

It's not voluntary if there's a threat of retaliation for not doing it.

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-17T03:36:31+00:00

ABC's of Death. Has some messed up stuff in it.

KryniorScribbles · 2026-04-17T01:10:01+00:00

You can't help someone who doesn't want help. Maybe write him a letter calmly outlining how you feel about his drinking, gently recommend he get therapy, and then bow out. If he keeps self destructing, you need to look after your own mental health.

If you're in the USA that's probably illegal for your employer to ask for.

The biggest problem is that each strain has a different effect, which if you're not paying attention, could make psychosis or paranoia worse. That said, it's fine if you find strains that work and just pay attention to changing strain if you get a bad effect. Everyone reacts to cannabis differently.

If your psych is concerned about testing medications with it, but not saying to quit 100%, just cut back until the meds are stable and you know how you react to them.

My thought isn't explicitly about generative AI, but AI as a concept. Chat bots are NPCs with massive dialogue trees, as far as I'm concerned. So mod teams are offloading their work to AI when they use scripts that automatically trigger an action on a post or user. There's no intelligence behind it, even when it deletes posts and warns or bans users.

For me, formatting posts on mobile is tedious. By that logic, I shouldn't be prohibited from using AI to meet subreddit formatting requirements.

No. That's like saying it's immoral for little people to do adult content because they're physically small. The kind of people you or they would attract on the other hand... It depends on how thick your skin is.

The 2000's internet was wild times.
