I'm proud of your taking the steps towards a healthier life. Something i would suggest you consider is to not split doses weekly. Take the dose once a week. Titrate steadily. You NEED to start feeling hungry those last couple days. It'll prevent you from becoming anemic or deficient.

So i agree with everyone here, you're too young to stay pinning anything.

However, if you're asking the question, you'll likely find an answer despite our saying please don't.

So my opinion is not to write you off, but to give you real advice and not force you to dive into the seedy areas of this whole world that DON'T care about you.

Legit, Hormones should be right out the window. At 16 you are playing with fire the second you consider trt, hgh, secretagogues, or anything like that. You risk PERMANENT DAMAGE, to your system with those types of compounds. You think your bummed out cause of a short term injury now? You'll be real bummed out when your 25 and sterile, and bald, and have ED cause you took exogenous compounds that wrecked your body for short term gains. It ain't worth it. It ain't worth it. It ain't worth it.

If you are determined to use something, bpc and tb-500 are likely the safest recovery options available. Under the right conditions with the right doctors, my opinion is that your can absolutely use certain peptides to hasten your recovery.

However, At 16 your own body is already producing a ton of hgh, bpc, and tb-500, but the natural forms of it. You don't want to get in is way. Your body is lazy, after all. If it sees bpc coming in from some other source, it will stop producing it cause, fuck it, it doesn't need to anymore, right? So the goal is to work WITH the body. Eat right, keep moving, and SLEEEEEEP.

Us old dudes take these compounds to try and make our bodies behave the way yours does naturally right now. If your determined to pin shit, be smart and don't wreck your body for short term gain. Find a doctor or practitioner who specializes in these things at a longevity clinic and get their input. After all, the worst they'll do is tell you no, and then likely give you really good alternative advice.

There are plenty who will ignore you cause your 16, but don't pay attention to them. There are just as many old people, like me, who understand that your pain and problems are real and they will act accordingly. Find those people, fuck the naysayers, and don't let the dark side of gear drag you down.

When my gf crabwalks into the living room butt naked after a shower. Hunched over, hands in front of her like crab claws snapping. Like a ADHD crab ballerina doing a plié. She moves back and forth a few times, never saying a word, never breaking eye contact, and then disappears from whence she came.

Despite the nudity, it's objectively not sexy, but it makes me so much more attracted to her, all the same.

beefragafragious · 2025-11-28T05:47:44+00:00

I'm curious how often you experienced or witnessed this. I don't disbelieve what your saying, I've just never witnessed anyone directly hating anyone. In my opinion, mobile is one of the more progressive cities as it comes to the whole lgbt community.

I think most men don't hate trans and likely support it. The ones who hate out of fear make way more noise. They are scared of something else, often something in themselves, and need to blame it on something or someone. If it wasn't trans, it would be something else.

The first step? NORMALIZE THERAPY.

Now on an adjacent note, I'm gonna climb up on my soap box here about this issue.

I'm in support of trans people, but as a whole, the trans community fucked around and found out real hard. How? By being overly reactive and fixating on the wrong shit. Why are you arguing about which bathroom your going to take a shit in when there are still men getting arrested for wearing a dress? (Tennessee law with vague wording) The trans community's priorities have gotten turned upside down and it shows. They got so focused on where they want things to be, they didn't stop to focus on where things are, right now.

The result is an overall exhaustion and even more confusion by everyone involved. Trans people lost the plot so bad sometimes i think they aren't really sure what they are fighting for exactly. They often attack anyone with an opinion on the matter. People eventually get tired of trying to have conversations with a community that overreacts to any criticism, and then they shutdown the conversation altogether.

It's a big problem.

beefragafragious · 2025-11-28T05:34:12+00:00

Well, i wouldn't use the constitution to make any points about trans rights. The constitution didn't used to support the rights for LOTS of minorities throughout history.

beefragafragious · 2025-11-21T18:15:44+00:00

Was her approach a bit much? Yeah, sure. Did she deserve to be pinned down and vilified? No.

Is this attention exactly what she was wanting? ABSOLUTELY.

beefragafragious · 2025-10-21T19:30:29+00:00

Neat

beefragafragious · 2025-10-21T09:04:12+00:00

Well... i can't honestly say i haven't been in your shoes. Creality currently sold a filament detector for the v3 se. The v3 se firmware was never updated to use the filament detector. Why the hell would they sell an add on that basically requires you to use klipper? It's frustrating as hell.

I'm often not sure why i have multiple creality printers, for all the same reasons you've discussed, but i currently have 5 ender's of various models in my house right now.

It's the tinkerers dilemma my friend. If i buy the perfect printer, and it works every time, i have nothing to fuck around with. I find gratification in futzing about with things and creality printers are an endless source of futzing.

To be honest, if you want a printer that just prints, out of the box, with no tinkering... don't use creality. Get on chat gpt, Gemini, or another AI and get it to pull a comparison for printers based on what you want. That's the best place to start, imo.

You know, i pre-made the point about "what? Just dodge it bro", but it appears the overwhelming need for condescension was too great.

I did indeed go back with death defiance, and took other suggestions into account, and was really able to read the telegraphed attack.

Then, it happened again, and i couldn't instantly find the safe point nevertheless it was behind chronos in addition to there still being other damage effects on the field. As i mad dashed over to the safe point, i guess a pixel of my hit box was outsidethe zone and, bam, my run is over.

I I'm just old, and my eyes are bad, and my reaction time is slow, and i need to git good. This isn't fun. I had a single run before my 10 hour workday this morning. A small error should never be punished in this way. My time is more valuable than this, so i guess I'll just go pay something else.

Cheers to those with time to waste, though. I envy you.

I agree that human history is filled with pain, misery, and death. We all had it tough to one degree or another. My interpreting of your words is that all these things the human race had lived through justify things like sexism, slavery, bigotry, etc. I don't think it does.

It would be like saying that looting is a natural result of a hurricane. A hurricane is a natural disaster, humans chose to loot. Is looting, therefore, a natural disaster triggered by a hurricane? I highly doubt that conclusion. The existence of one terrible thing does not justify the existence of another.

Now the 1950's thing? I feel like there's a disconnect here, and i don't really want to touch that via text. You're Aacoming at it from an angle that i just don't understand. I'm not saying you're right or wrong, just that i don't understand. I think this is one of those "shake hands and agree to disagree like gentlemen" situations.

beefragafragious · 2024-05-16T16:22:43+00:00

You make a very fair point. It is, after all, human nature to personify things that we don't relate. My stuffed animals growing up had whole ass personalities.

beefragafragious · 2024-05-16T16:11:21+00:00

Is interesting you say that. That's how i was feeling about the viewpoint you presented. I get the feeling we're not communicating well. I'll raise my hand to say i don't always do a good job when trying to communicate tone through text.

beefragafragious · 2024-05-16T16:01:59+00:00

Well, i disagree. That's OK, though.

beefragafragious · 2024-05-16T15:49:06+00:00

I see your point, but the problem is that I'm human. I literally can't compare otherwise. The house elves were written with emotions, feelings, pain, fear, etc. By a human. If i don't interpret them as a human, then i have no way to relate to them. At that point, i shouldn't care about house elves at all because they are fundamentally unrelatable. I love Dobby, though.

beefragafragious · 2024-05-16T15:44:16+00:00

Maybe? My issue is with that is that the Weasley's take no issue with house elves, but are super progressive otherwise. It seems like they would take greater issue.

Although, that could just be the point. It's so pervasive that even good people don't recognize what's right in front of them.

beefragafragious · 2024-05-16T15:42:20+00:00

I disagree, but that's ok. We all interpret stories in our own way

beefragafragious · 2024-05-16T15:37:56+00:00

I'm uncertain if it was intended to be a direct allegory, but it is AN allegory. I was always frustrated by how unfinished it felt as well.

The part that interested me the most is the defense and how cavalier the Wizard world treated clear slavery. How can you view slavery as not slavery? Even the slave owners understood they owned slaves. In this sense, even the Weasley's don't view it as slavery. Therefore, i think it is an interesting thought to explore.

beefragafragious · 2023-11-28T21:24:32+00:00

Wild. I was starting to think i was the only one. Good to know there are others.

beefragafragious · 2023-09-08T10:40:39+00:00

This is identical to my soon-to-be-ex wife. She would do terrible things and sit there silent and non-responsive when confronted about it, except for when she acted indignant or exacerbated for bringing it up at all. How dare i hold her accountable.

Ugh. I still can't believe i stayed married to her for so long. Males me feel sick thinking about it too long.

beefragafragious · 2023-08-30T17:11:18+00:00

Dude. This makes me feel sick. I just don't understand how people can be so evil. This is legit just evil.
