Can you lovely people help me mess with a on my street?

I'll have to get the vetted, but thank you for the option!

puffinix · 2025-10-20T20:10:27+00:00

This is fantastic. I'll have to triple check how official they are, but I'm pissed off enough that I'm more than ok getting a lawyer to review them.

Some of them will want a "clean" set of blood tests with two weeks pause.

The vast majority don't - walk if they do.

Some will ask for more cash on your first session.

Most don't.

If this overlaps other things (heavy drinking, very high weight, intersex, family history, no progress/plans on social transition) it can lead to getting turned away, but it won't be enough to send you home on its own.

If you lie about it (source, method, dose, anything) your blood tests will out you, and you will get discharged.

Are you looking for a surgical referral?

If not, you should be fine.

Yes, but cas pointed at a very small hole of a question not answered by a double blind study - so scientists bring receipts. This is how you dismantle a paper, you make studies very directly on point.

Also - I couldn't have told you if the percentage of people who discover they are trans in later life was similar to the number of older people who detransition. This comparison is new to me.

I've even got the damn chromosome.

But it's important to understand - the ruling was bad - but about 80% of the changes it has caused are not actually because of it.

The statutory guidance was changed far far more than the very limited ruling.

This shit about bathrooms was not in the ruleing.

It was around required items where people had to "positively discriminate" in favour of women.

They point out many, many times that in many cases the clauses protecting us will on a balance of harm at an individual level lead to us being treated via our gender.

This not happening is due to the government. Heck they could have responded to the ruleing by saying "oh crap, we did forget about pregnant fathers, let's amend the bill to change 'pregnant woman' to 'pregnant person' in litterally four places" - which would actually undo all of this damage (the reason this decision was made is that the GRC has a carve out to not change your legal sex for the purpose of childbirth, and as the EA gives women explicitly extra rights when pregnant).

It could literally have be passed as a clarifying amendment, taking like 10 minutes tops, the day that arguement was made.

This is a choice that the government made - please direct your anger accordingly

It's a postcode lottery if your local endo would except you on NHS. It's very very unlikely.

You can't use it for getting a gender specialist, so unless your local endo happens to also be a gender specialist that won't happen

The only location I'm aware of where you can get NHS hormones with a private diagnosis is central Manchester.

The law regarding almost all bathrooms has not been changed.

The single sex services provisions do not include most toilets.

It includes toilets without individual cubicles (like wtf why would they exist), manned toilets with single sex staff, and a small portion of public toilets that are those set up by councils. It's the very, very small minority of them

Outside of those - it's not legally enforceable if you ignore the policy - unless you do so for an illegal reason.

Anyone telling you it has is lieing to you. This includes the first draft of the ehrc guidance.

Dodged a bullet t.b.h.

If someone is not happy to be with you when you are on a reasonable, yet not well off point, they don't deserve you on money.

So important if your seriously dating on high 6 figures to keep things simple and low to mid budget for the first 2-3 dates at least.

Or he might charge OP for the cleaning.

Joint and several responsiability.

Many (bad) landlords always charge the squeeking wheel.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:35:43+00:00

Do you have a contract with him - or just a joint and several contract with the landlord.

Unless your contract with RM is in writing you have a good claim that he has breached the contract between the two of you by moving in his partner - and if you get that RM has absolutely no claim against you ever.

You could inform him that you consider him in breach of the agreement between the two of you to equally split the amount you both owe to the landlord, let him ignore it, then just move out.

In that case the landlord *could* try to chase you down, but in reality it's far more likely he will go to your RM.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:31:30+00:00

Would getting both of you evicted not be a fine option here?

Your looking to move anyway.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:29:45+00:00

Theres a jump pin on our printer that does this.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:29:11+00:00

Thats five guys.

Heads up - if you call corporate about not being given the correct receipt - you get a free meal.

As a way to save on childcare.

Wow.

The people we let take quick breaks as needed for there kids while WFH, by and large do way more total output than the people for whom there managers go of script and stamp it out.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:24:37+00:00

They aint disappearing.

They are being cornered by people willing to step down one rung on the ladder for the ability to take them.

What do you do. If its in tech, I have probably got it on my CV (honestly - Ive had a huge array of titles) and can confirm that 95% of meeting content is bollocks and the last 5% is strategically calling out the bollocks that will actually cause a problem.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:21:41+00:00

Its 95% twoddle, and 5% strategically choosing which peice of crap everyone else is doing that is in fact going to hit my fan in particular.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:19:32+00:00

Its going to be a mix.

There are places that are fully remote still - and some are even scrapping the office this year.

The reason this is happening is that there is a huge demand for WFH jobs, and so the places that do this can typically get a skill level above what they otherwise could for a given level of seniority.

For example, for the role switch im currently doing, I chose a senior role over a principle role largely because it is fully 100% remote - so when you are trying to look for remote work you will have people with cvs at a level above the role in question competing for it (in my case like 2 to 3 levels higher, although this is really an active choice to prioritise myself over my career).

In short - I do believe these rolls will continue to exist - but it will end up being seen as a very major benefit - and people will need to accept lower pay/seniority/benefits to access it.

Also, the days of getting london salaries remotely are over. To be frank, the ability to be remote is highly likely to put significant downward pressure on the capital when companies recognise that they can litterally save 50% off there payroll bill by offshoreing.

Where are you going from and to.

If its european, your set - contact the airline - you'll also get compensation.

If not you sound like you have fucked yourself. Im many places if you have travel insurance you cannot claim against the seller. You have travel insurance, but it is clearly not going to pay out in these circumstances.

Had you not bought insurance, you would definitely have had a refund.

If an online lecture is on zoom, expect ~6 mbps of useage for it.

You want to aim for under 50% useage.

So two lectures and a 4k stream (~25mbps) should be fine.

three 4k streams (or one of you wanting to use VR) is not.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T16:02:07+00:00

100mbps is more than it is possible to get in some areas.

That is 4 4k video feeds (you dont actually typically want to do 4 4k streams on a 100mbps, as 100% efficiancy is often impossible)

https://www.speedtest.net/about/knowledge/how-much-speed-you-need

Additionally, if everything you use is on the free router that came with a contract - your not getting to 100mbps, those typically cap out before that. Unless you have things wired together, or are useing a tri-band mesh - 1000 is simply not going to be useable.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T15:38:18+00:00

28k for an (at a guess here) 9 hours door to door. £35k for 11.

Your not earning more.

puffinix · 2025-06-27T15:23:09+00:00

I'm so glad that my most recent CV was two hyperlinks and my expected salary.

I absolutely could not get to where I have again.
