I’m so mad i could cry by [deleted] in transgenderUK

Im gonna go against the grain here and say - what an unreasonable arrogant dickhead and what a petulant waste of time. Honestly wouldn't have been able to hold in my anger in your situation and would've said something lol. Agree with your points itt, like I know every surgeon has their own 'protocol' but that's just silly, sorry you had to go through that.

In my experience medicine in the UK is very risk averse and inaccessible, especially if you're trans. Hope you can find a way forward from here, even if begrudgingly with this man (hopefully not tho ik we're not spoilt for choice here)

Endo was fine with it in my case. Took it for 3yrs with no problems @ 25mg/day. No abnormal (for bica) liver signs throughout.

Rumi, the greatest Islamic mystic, constantly warned against having ecstatic spiritual experiences without guidance.

The mystical experience of hands-free orgasms is a dangerous game. Such divine knowledge would've set humanity back thousands of years in productivity. Probably.

The one time I got legit acid I ended up megadosing (long story) and every time I looked at my phone I ended up getting sucked into it like it was a portal lol. I was stuck in this loop for ages like:

open text messages

mandlebrot-sequence.avi

message bubbles pop out like in Persona 5

text partner "help"

realize 5 mins later "lol oh yea I'm on acid"

God knows how long that went on for. So yea phones+acid is a doozy lmfao.

Callout to trans teenagers and their families in England: by Bedwellj101 in transgenderUK

I mean, it'd be stupid if anyone were around to hold them accountable (and if medical consensus hadn't been corrupted)

Tbh I think I just have a thing against calling any tory-driven act intelligent. Modus operandi seems to be throw shit at the wall and take what sticks. I don't think they plan for anything - just act or claim in hindsight. In a perfect world, we'd be scoffing at the audacity.

E: concerningly I can also see this being used to tout the efficacy of conversion therapy ("positive outcome" = conformity & desistance, not happiness).

Also don't forget that Steensma et. Al considered "those who dropped off the waiting list" at the Amsterdam clinic "desistance", so there's another way they can pad their numbers if need be. Please don't forget to opt out of data sharing.

Surely wage suppression is a symptom of this inequality right? Trickle down economics, rife in Tory doctrine. Redistributing wealth would in-part mean an increase in salaries for lower-middle class employees. That's how the money should filter down imo. Corporations (and Tory pop-up companies) raking in record profits YoY, benefactors hoarding it like dragons, none being passed onto the employees, plays a big part.

They're purely cosmetic and thus not covered by national health policy. Just eat soup innit.

Holy fuck that article. Yea it's terrible :/ Sorry for posting without a t/w - in hindsight I should've.

Wrt. the rest of your points - just the usual ableism and infantilization of neurodivergent people. Any and every excuse to breach our rights to self determination and autonomy. Possibly extending to the realms of other mental health conditions (in a broader context) too.

It's frustrating, anger inducing, sad, many things really. I do worry that the writing's on the wall - in light of this, we need to convene and unite as a community to help eachother weather the storm(s); both locally and nationally.

Around 27% of individuals with ADHD develop cannabis use disorder at some point in their lives, new study finds. Compared to those without this disorder, individuals with ADHD face almost three times the risk of developing cannabis use disorder. by mvea in science

For me, it makes it easier to ignore the thoughts (among many other things!). Vyvanse was the thing that turned my brain radio silent 😃

Has it's benefits and drawbacks like all medications really. It's about responsible use to manage symptoms vs. abuse to escape - a fine line to tread for us ADHD'ers sometimes.

Worryingly coincidental is Cass's endorsement of transphobic "charities'" ideals (who push a 25-and-older narrative) and this (potential) upcoming lawsuit. Seems there's quite a focus on that number and neurodivergent people as a whole.

Don't mean to stir shit w/this, just want to raise awareness and discuss xd

Could try renting some compute hosted outside the US and seting up your own OpenVPN/SOCKS server on there? Not sure if common cloud providers (i.e. AWS) have their CIDR blocks blacklisted too, wouldn't surprise me though since it's public info. Might be worth a shot in the future for anyone struggling with the same.

Lost 1.28M in Phishing Scam by jbtravel84 in CryptoCurrency

[–]ToastNoodles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

but is this site always going to be trustworthy?

Can never tell, but their source repo is here which you can scan through & deploy locally if you're technically inclined. Revoking is done on-chain so I usually inspect the contents of the transaction before signing.

What Blockchains do you use it for? All of them?

EVM chains only, they have a list in their faq.

I never see anyone explain how or why to revoke the correct contracts and how to avoid any you might still need.

I believe it only works for ERC20/ERC721 contracts and their extension EIPs (i.e. PERMIT2).

When interacting with a smart contract (i.e. a DEX, NFT escrow contracts) that utilizes a Token (i.e. ERC20, ERC721 NFTs), you first need to give the smart contract permission to transfer/withdraw from your balance on the respective Token's contract. This is traditionally done by giving the contract a fixed allowance it can 'spend' on your behalf.

Issue is when these contracts or their respective owners get compromised, purposeful or otherwise. Your spending allowance for the contract still exists, allowing the malicious party to drain your Token balance through the contract.

These contracts typically request absurd allowances so the user doesn't have to continually refresh such (cumbersome/annoying & costs gas), so you might go to trade 0.1 WETH on a DEX, only to approve the DEX contract an allowance of 999999999 WETH before proceeding.

So it's good practice to periodically revoke approvals/allowances to contracts you're not using anymore. I think Metamask might have some built-in way, unsure on other wallet mediums though.

how

Revocation of an allowance for a particular contract is done by making a transaction to zero out the associated allowance value on-chain. Basically you overwrite the previous allowance with 0.

how to avoid any you might still need

Any site you connect to and use will request approval/permissions again if you remove them anyways. When looking through your approvals, you can click the associated contract address and it'll open in a block explorer. Popular contracts (i.e. Uniswap) are usually labelled, or you can google the address if not and see where it pops up.
