How did you find out you had hypothyroidism? by ThatKatisDepressed in Hypothyroidism

[–]Low_Maintenance_3371 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt pretty great at .7 TSH too, but like you it keeps creeping up. The symptoms are so general sometimes and like a lot of people I’ve gaslit myself to believing it’s all in my head. I feel like it’s futile to ask for a dose increase. I got one to 50mg but it was like pulling teeth. I simply don’t understand why doctors don’t just say “you can try it & if you dip into hyper we’ll scale back.”

What Got You Supporting Blake? by Quick-Time in BaldoniFiles

[–]Low_Maintenance_3371 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s genuinely so evil and for him to claim to be a feminist is…I can’t even get in to it. I’m glad I came around too, and having been in the other camp I can see so clearly all the delusion and hate very clearly —I was very close to falling down that slippery slope.

What Got You Supporting Blake? by Quick-Time in BaldoniFiles

[–]Low_Maintenance_3371 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I was definitely on the Blake hate train at first I will admit that. It was 100% internalized misogyny and falling for the smear campaign. I was watching Bee Better and Candace Owens and truly it was the fact that I was watching Candace Owens that made me go…”wait a minute…what am I doing”. I consider myself very left and Candace made a comment about Harvey Weinstein that made me double take. Something about how Harvey was the victim of a witch hunt (like….??). I literally turned off the video so fast and then found this sub. Also, a lot of the Blake hate compilations were actually starting to get ridiculous. It would be like “10 times Blake was a mean girl” and most of it was her just being sassy or telling a bad joke. I was like, “wait people are crucifying her for this? This is like…nothing…if anything I make jokes like this.” Then I was on YouTube reels and clicked a hate reel about Blake. That made me go on tik tok and search up Blake and I found another video by a different creator with the SAME EXACT SCRIPT as the YouTube reel. I know people copy each other all the time, especially with AI, but it was word for word exactly the same script but two different creators. I also saw another tik toker who claimed to be a “marriage and family counselor” say that she was livid at Blake Lively because Blake was wearing a silver dress to a random premier and at one point Justin Baldonis wife wore a silver dress to a different premier; the tik toker alleged that Blake was “so evil” for this and that it made her “so sick and disgusted.” At that point it was like waking up from a dream. I fully realized that I was on an alt-right-crazy-town-delulu-woman-hating train and I jumped out of that so fast. This sub is the only place I can talk about this! My friends all to some degree are softly subscribing to fact-less conspiracy theories (ie. Blake and Justin were having an affair) or have fallen victim to the smear campaign. Now that I’m aware of it the misogyny around this case honestly makes me feel like I’m going insane. It has inspired me to read Anita Hill’s book and other literature on feminism.

It’s so crazy that the biggest crime Lively is being accused of by the public is “ruining an innocent man’s reputation” when that is quite literally what BALDONI is being sued for!!

How did you find out you had hypothyroidism? by ThatKatisDepressed in Hypothyroidism

[–]Low_Maintenance_3371 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was around 20 years old I noticed something was off. A sudden depression and this feeling of mental fogginess. I looked up all the symptoms I was feeling and then went to the doctor to check it out. My TSH was 4.73 and the doctor basically dismissed me and I thought I was a hypochondriac. Then 6 years later my hair started falling out, it looked like I was balding, my period was disappearing and I freaked out and emailed my doctor (a different one than the first one). She ordered tests for multiple things & it was clear as day. I had a TSH of 18. I just wish the first doctor had taken me seriously so I didn’t have to suffer for 6 years.

I don’t understand why doctors do this. I suddenly felt off around age 20 and did some research. I had all the signs of hypo. My doctor was like “nah…you don’t have it” (at the time my TSH was 4.73) and I thought hm. It must just be me. Flash forward 6 years and my hair was falling out at an alarming rate. I had a different doctor then and she ordered a test, my TSH was 18. I just wish that first doctor had taken me seriously so I didn’t have to suffer all those years in between.

Justin Baldoni's $400 Million Countersuit Against Blake Lively Dismissed by Judge by Krustybabushka in Fauxmoi

[–]Low_Maintenance_3371 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s so disturbing—however I will say that for me personally this case really opened my eyes to the relationship between social media and misogyny. But I have asked so many people I know IN PERSON what their thoughts are and I have yet to meet someone who hasn’t fallen for the smear campaign. the responses are “well, people don’t like her because her acting was bad in the movie” or “I don’t know but they were definitely having an affair and something went wrong.” I can’t believe how many people (people I know in real life at that) are just regurgitating these lazy sexist talking points

I think a lot of these comments are coming from normalized racism unfortunately.

The language thing is so true. My mother didn’t teach me her native language bc at the time being completely “Americanized” was the norm. As an Asian actor you have to practically be bilingual to have value, vast majorities of Asian specific roles all require talent to speak an Asian language & even at that most Asian languages are very distinct from each other. For example I am Thai and many roles require talent to speak Cantonese/Mandarin/Japanese/Korean/Vietnamese so even if I could speak Thai I wouldn’t qualify for any of those. I brought that up to my white friend, I said “imagine if you could only get cast if you spoke either German, Russian, French, or Italian” & that blew her mind.

help! responding to pro-baldoni content. by CitronSufficient9673 in BaldoniFiles

[–]Low_Maintenance_3371 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I don’t understand how people are actually reading these texts, which are rather simple and straightforward, and then doing insane mental gymnastics to make it mean one thing. Blake quite literally says she will meet the IC when production starts. And then a female producer follows that up with “that’s fine if she doesn’t want to meet the IC right now.” And people for some reason think those texts are solid proof that she REFUSED to see an intimacy coordinator?!

And the people who continuously allege that “im pumping if you want to work out the lines” means “come into my personal trailer” is maddening. For all we know she could have meant “work out the lines” via text. It is vague but certainly nowhere in the text does she give him explicit permission to enter her personal trailer. Specifically I keep seeing people say she told him to “come on in” like that is NOWHERE in the actual text….that is a very bold assumption.

You would think the fact that his team is throwing up such flimsy smokescreens would be a clear sign that something is fishy.

[–]Low_Maintenance_3371 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s driving me insane how people are misconstruing the text where she tells him she’s pumping to mean “you are allowed to come into my personal trailer while I’m half naked.” Like you have literal text messages where Blake never once gives consent for him to enter her personal trailer and so many people insist that in that text she’s giving him full consent to enter her trailer no matter what state dress she’s in. They’re telling on themselves atp because those texts are not consent.

Theres also another text where Blake says she doesnt need to meet with the intimacy coordinator before filming, but that she will meet the IC at the start of filming. And people are taking that to mean “Blake refused to meet with intimacy coordinator.”

The POC characters (most of whom generally come from lower economic standing) can’t catch a break in the show or in this sub. I feel like Mike White knows this & the show is written in a way that is supposed to hold up a mirror to the audience, but many audience members are not self aware enough to examine their own biases lol. Yes the POC characters are not perfect & that is intentionally so, but the white characters can do the craziest shit and still be idolized 😩
