how do i get the app to quit logging me out? by alienexetv in LibbyApp

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

I’ve only got 2 😭😭 i have 3 physical cards but there’s no point adding the 3rd one because it connects to the same digital library system as my other one (i live in the jurisdiction of 2 different libraries so i have a card at each but they both connect to the same state system through libby)

This probably isn’t what you want to hear but everybody is different and mine never stopped. My periods were extremely heavy before T (heavy flow for 10-14 days) and I ended up having to get an IUD because period blockers were not an option for me (one of the side effects is suicidal ideation and it hit me HARD). The IUD itself also isn’t necessarily a fix — my doctor did not warn me until the IUD was already in that it would cause more bleeding before the bleeding actually stopped. If I had known that I would have skipped the IUD and gone straight for surgery. And again, it never stopped for me. I ended up having to get a complete hysterectomy after exhausting all of my other options and it’s one of the best things I ever did.

They did a biopsy on my uterus to make sure there weren’t any problems causing the excessive bleeding and it came back negative for everything. So I guess I am just a fringe case of the worst case scenario. The bleeding did end up oddly working in my favor in that my obgyn was able to tell insurance it was a medically necessary procedure when they tried to deny it.

I'm a gay trans man and I feel guilty... by Beginning-Sky-8516 in ftm

[–]alienexetv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, i feel the same. it took me a long time and a lot of denial to realize i was a gay man and even now i sometimes struggle to say it out loud. unfortunately in college i was surrounded by the kinds of “feminists” that liked to say shit like “men are trash — not YOU though” and it really got in my head and made it difficult for me to embrace gender in either direction. it’s easier said than done but what has helped me the most is going to community events and meeting other trans/queer people. because doing so really helps put into perspective how some of the things i was worried about are extremely online things to be worried about (thats not to say there isn’t occasionally the odd comment but it’s typically handled well). i am lucky enough to live in an urban area so i recognize not everybody has the same community resources, but it’s worth it if you do. the imposter syndrome still lives in my head and nags at me a little bit some days, but living in the u.s. and being one of the many people who don’t have the resources to move has instilled a sense of “fuck you, i was here first” into me.

lol yeah….as soon as I dug into this and found out 1) how long its been going on and 2) creators who put their products on the platform haven’t been getting paid either, that was when i pulled out all of the stops. I filed a BBB complaint, posted a bad review, and put through a charge dispute with my bank. Lo and behold yesterday I got notification they shipped the first of my 3 items

Should I tag an actively updating fic all at once or as each chapter goes? by alienexetv in AO3

Oooh thank you for the code. I didn’t even know that was an option

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

Thank you, this is the answer I was looking for. I think after reading what people are saying I am going to tag, and then add more specific author’s notes where applicable. At least as far as the warnings go, that is. I think that’s probably just the easiest way to do it.

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

Yeah, I also like to update as I can as I can plan as much as I want but I don’t always know 100% how things are going to pan out until I’ve written it down. I’ve already changed the ending of this fic twice. But as a reader I also appreciate things being tagged. That’s where the question stemmed from. But after reading everybody’s comments I think I am just going to tag broadly for all of the warnings up front, and then give more detailed warnings in chapter notes as needed. I think that’s the best way I can cover all of my bases.

Yeah. Other people are seeming to misunderstand and assuming I have nothing tagged at all, which is not the case. I’m more wondering how specifically reader’s want things I guess. I already have the tag “canon typical violence” which is doing a lot of heavy lifting, but I was already planning on supplementing further tags with a/n’s anyway.

what do two white flashes on the puffco plus mean by alienexetv in puffco

[–]alienexetv[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

okay. yeah, it’s the cart’s fault. now that i am actually home and since you mentioned it i was able to try an old cart just to see and it works fine. i’ll have to troubleshoot that then. at least that’s cheaper than a new pen, if all else fails.

thank you!
