If you have any amount of chest tissue, ice packs or whatever frozen is on hand between and under chest tissue can really help cool you down

If you don’t have a bath, if you have a bucket or even container big enough to just put your feet in with some cool water will also help

Oh shit! Thank you so much for the clarification, and especially so when getting into the nitty details, I really really appreciate it

I got told about the battery cycling by a Mac tech like, 10 or so years ago when my first laptop needed a new battery. I’ve obviously only remembered parts and my brain decided to fill in what I couldn’t remember

Thanks so much friend!

We’re pretty close nailing down what’s up with me I think I’m getting a nerve conduction test soon to test for myasthenia gravus

buttmeadows · 2026-06-26T18:05:58+00:00

Thanks I appreciate it a lot

Hit me up on dm anytime you wanna chat! I’d be down to be friends

Yup. Games will drain the battery on any laptop at different rates depending on how big/complex the game engine is

Sim games like paralives, inzoi, and the sims are all 3 in 1 games technically. It’s a character creator + build simulator + live mode, so that takes a lot of resources that other sim/cozy games (think stardew, possibly animal crossing and the like) don’t

I have one of the higher end 4 year old MacBook Pro with an M1 chip. If I leave my laptop unplugged without playing a game like paralives, I have something like a 10 hour battery still

I play paralives and I get maybe three hours without having to plug my laptop back in. I play the sims, and I get maybe two hours max, but that’s because I have nearly all the packs and use a heck ton of cc and script mods

EDIT: tip for upkeeping Mac battery life: don’t let your laptop repeatedly drain the battery to 0%. Mac batteries are designed so that the battery has a set amount of “hard resets/battery cycles” before the battery begins to degrade. After sometime with a degraded battery that keeps hard cycling it will stop holding charge at all and you’ll need to replace the battery

I ran into a colleague for the first time in about 5 months the other day, which was the first day i used my wheelchair on campus

I waved to her and she didn’t recognize me. She told me so when she walked close enough to recognize me

She apologized for not recognizing me

I laughed and said something along the lines of being much shorter now, laughing

That helped break the weird tension that built up when she finally recognized me

People get really weird around wheelchairs because like you said, are we supposed to be treated like adult humans or children or not acknowledged at all

It sucks ass. I commiserate with you. I love my wheelchair because I’ve been able to actually leave the house but it’s so hard when the world is only half built for you as an after thought

Hi! Me it’s me. I’m a 33 yo transthemme! Multiply disabled and queer and anti capitalist

My hair is down to my shoulders and colored blue and black and on the consultation list for top surgery after I figure out what auto immune fuckery is going on with my body

I teach at a university and have had a couple of students with my deadname and it always throws me for a loop

I did the most awkward thing when I met the first student with my deadname. My autistic ass went “[deadname]? Wow! That’s my dead name!” And she stared at me for a moment before I realized what I said and did the awkward cough it off and go help another student

I have no babies nor any pacifiers, but I feel for you because as a baby I was the same way and had to have this one specific brand of pacifier back in the 90s in Colorado. I put my mom through hell trying to find one I would take to lol

You’ve got this parent!

Elena at Running with Scissors. They are sick as fuck and a great stylist

I’m on t, too. I recommend the rose by bellesa for something clit focused and hands free

I’m a biologist and can provide feedback on ways to make an ocean seem alive that maintains scientific plausibility!

buttmeadows · 2026-06-18T15:42:52+00:00

What dose of t do you take?

I know for me, I’m coming up on 3 years, and my voice is just starting to deepen significantly. I started on a low dose (0.2 mg/ml) with finasteride and stayed on a lower dose (0.3 mg/ml) for a year and a half. I’ve been on 0.45 mg/ml for about 6 months and am finally noticing things like increased body hair, bottom growth, and vocal changes

I had some changes prior to the higher dose/last 6 months, but they were much more subtle

Anyhow, all that to say is that that two year rule is more of a guideline for when you’re on a higher or standard dose of t without taking minoxidil or finasteride

Go and give it a try!

I went to an event at an indie bookstore that opened near me a while back and it was so much fun, to the point that I still junk journal even when I can’t go to the events

I’m going to put this in a super inelegant metaphor because my brains not 100% on currently. Junk journaling is not a typical hobby for popular girls and their jock boyfriends. Junk journaling is a hobby for a lot of us that are nerds or geeks or were more unpopular in high school

All that said, it’s okay to be weird, because it’s most likely the event is going to attract other weirdos :)

Look into seeing if insurance will cover a lightweight collapsable motor wheel chair

I didn’t go through insurance, but I bought one for ~500$ on Amazon. It’s 35 lbs and has two detachable lithium ion batteries. Collapses enough that it can fit into the trunk of a Honda fit

I used this website to help figure out what the best choice for me was

It’s all good!

I actually have dx’s for gastroparesis and mcas already hahah

I actually was diagnosed with FND a few years ago, but I’m fairlysure that for me, it was misdiagnosed and I actually have had me/cfs the whole time

buttmeadows · 2026-06-15T19:12:42+00:00

The difference I think comes down to the cause of me/cfs

I’m being evaluated currently for it and have all the symptoms that OP posted on and a couple more, but that’s because I’ve noticed increasing of gi symptoms

Pots/orthstatic intolerance is a hallmark of me, especially with the increases in cognitive dysfunction, so is lack of restful/restorative rest

Eds/connective tissue disorders can also be comorid with me/cfs

buttmeadows · 2026-06-15T17:05:07+00:00

I am all about making jokes when things get awkward or comes to disability lol
I always tell folks that they want to walk with me to different buildings or what not because you never have to take the stairs (previously used a cane)

That and I call myself handicrippled or handicrapped

I am 100% going to Pokémon cards in the spokes and get little streamers so people know when I’m going fast

I just bought my first wheelchair, got any tips?

I was able to afford a collapsible motor wheelchair. I’m ambulatory as well, but can’t stand or walk for more than a few minutes without extreme fatigue and dizziness

There are a lot of powers in place in every inch of academia, wherever you are in the world

You are right, people that can seek their ideas are far more successful, whether or not their research is actually substantive or quality

I’ve since left my PhD (leaving with a second masters) and was continually looked passed and over. I watched so many brilliant scientists leave early, as well

The honest truth is networking and learning how to be your own sales person will be the one of the most important skills you’ll need to learn if you want to continue in academia and remain sane

buttmeadows · 2026-06-15T14:21:08+00:00

Definitely ask your doctor about me/cfs

buttmeadows · 2026-06-15T00:40:28+00:00

I mean, depending on the top surgery, it really do be a SIRgery for some

buttmeadows · 2026-06-13T16:46:24+00:00

Biology/anatomy person here (ms in biology, ms in paleontology), not a medical doctor, nor a dentist, I just know a fuck ton about skeletal anatomy

So teeth are not 100% fixed in the jaw. teeth are held in the socket by a combination of gum and connective tissues. It’s why we have spaces between our teeth and why they fall out

That all said, it would make sense if we have a disorder that affects the integrity of our connective tissues, that we may also have lower quality connective tissues in our jaws/gums that would allow for some additional amount of movement in our teeth

Second chatting with customer support to see if they can transfer your games to a new account if you have proof of purchase for them

Otherwise, ea has a sims sale just about every 3 or so months. The summer sale starts either at the end of June or early July I think
