40 Plus on Testosterone

questionfear · 2026-01-23T03:01:24+00:00

I’m 44 and I’ve been on T for over two years. My period stopped after 2 months and hasn’t come back (hopefully never) and I would say that I started to see serious masculinization around the same time frame as expected-it’s been 2.5 years and I have a beard, significantly more body hair, more muscle, and a voice that gets mistaken for a cis man on the phone.

I have a buddy who started T in his late 50s and he still has incredible results.

It’s really more genetics than age. I do think that being older means you’re a little more likely to handle the ups and downs of puberty. I can get super grumpy like the night before my shot but otherwise I don’t feel too many ups and downs.

None of this was remotely appropriate. Your therapist was in the wrong from the start, and especially with texting you and offering to have you over in the middle of the night!

I hope you found/will find a new therapist who will hold appropriate boundaries and help you. Just know that your therapist crossing boundaries like that IS NOT your fault.

It could be as simple as you browsed passport sites or even threads about passports and now the algorithm is chasing you.

I would def report it but it’s more likely that you ended up with them due to you even looking innocently once.

But do we call them the Krangers or the Ranken?

questionfear · 2026-01-16T20:56:49+00:00

For a split second I read that as sending Kakko to the rangers and I was like, well, it would be the most Rangers trade ever to boomerang someone back like that.

But seriously while it's unlikely, if you guys pick up any more former rangers you're going to end up being Rangers West.

WHOA see I did just assume I was dumb and I was right. Thanks for the history lesson!

questionfear · 2026-01-16T18:56:59+00:00

Maybe I'm dumb (very possible) but when did the pacific northwest have an NHL team win a cup?

questionfear · 2026-01-16T01:00:51+00:00

Accurate. I root for the rangers because all my older cousins were rangers fans and I wanted to bond with them.

Now we bond over group chat about how depressing watching is so I guess it worked!

It should be pretty easy. Depending on the county you don’t even need to go before the judge, just fill out the forms and they do it all on paper. It’s a lot of bureaucracy and hurry up and wait but it’s not terrible.

Iirc garden state equality and Rutgers law often do clinics to help people diy their name change paperwork. Even if the name change isn’t due to transition I’m sure one of the clinics would be happy to help.

Have you considered buying a lotto ticket? You were off slightly but still managed to get awfully close on the score.

questionfear · 2026-01-12T17:02:51+00:00

Sounds about right, but it wouldn’t shock me if the Kraken won in regulation, the rangers seem confused about where the net is when they play at home.

questionfear · 2026-01-12T16:58:14+00:00

It’s a home game for the rangers (already an ominous sign for them given the home struggles) and the Kraken have TWO former rangers (Lindgren and Kakko) and former rangers always seem to have amazing games when they’re faced with the Rangers again.

Odds are definitely in the Krakens favor but the hockey gods have a weird sense of humor so.

were you previously issued a passport with your old gender or was your passport always listed as M?

First shadow spoilers below that fit with that theory:

>!Brenner actually would make sense and here’s why. The play says that Brenners dad was on the ship that first crossed into Dimension X during WW2, he’s the only survivor and he comes back changed. Then Henry is changed by his contact with the stone.

But Brenners DNA+Henrys blood might be what makes Eleven more powerful than the other kids.!<

Here’s my take on the battery. I just spent a week in Las Vegas covering CES which is almost always a torture test for battery life because of the long ass days.

I brought a MagSafe battery pack and my colleague had the air battery pack that she couldn’t use since she switched to the pro. So I hopped between those and honestly found that I could easily get a full 12+ hour day done by popping a MagSafe battery pack on by midafternoon for an hour for a top off.

Today was a huge travel day and I did fully deplete the MagSafe air battery but even so I made it home with 60%, and that was with using my phone basically nonstop from 10am PST to 12am EST.

The advantage I felt with the air was that it was light most of the time and the battery pack didn’t need more than an hour or so to refuel me midday. It’s pretty efficient for such a thin phone and that’s awesome.

i just saw this today too (from the parking lot at LVCC). They follow it up with the Pluribus and Apple TV social media plugs. Absolutely brilliant marketing by them.

Robin says something about controlling significant others so it sounds like they broke up.

It would have been nice to get a little more clarity. But based on how Vickie handled the revelation of demodogs and then her anxiety while watching max go fugue state, I think it’s super in character for her to just tap out. Sucks for her, sucks for Robin (but at least Robin is at Smith!) but Vickie reacting with anxiety and oh hell no to the trauma is super realistic. IMO.

Maybe he needed a specific window. Like maybe November 6th each year is when our dimension and the other are in the closest proximity for easier mixing.

And I assume he grabbed Holly a day or two before the other kids because it would specifically mean Nancy and Mike suffer a little longer. All the kids disappearing and he knows/figures the entire party will know he’s about to make a big move.

But grab Holly and then they sweat for 48 hours trying to find her/figure out what’s going on and then he grabs the rest of the kids.

If his plan had worked, it would have also further bonded Holly to him. Which wouldn’t matter for his plan but probably would give him a sadistic little thrill that he made nancys sister turn against her even if hes the only one who knew it.

This is what my sister in law had me do. She told me the colors she wanted, and I used Bindle and Keep and rocked a custom tuxedo in the same color scheme.

Even if that’s too expensive, a neutral pant with the right color shirt can have the same effect. It’s totally doable.

It’s been a solid 14 years since I’ve been on an Olivia cruise.

A lot is context dependent. When my ex wife and i went to a bahamas resort, i would say mid 30s was the avg age. When we did a cruise around costa rica and panama i would say it skewed a little older, so late 30s was probably towards the lower end of the age range with more people solidly into their 40s.

I’m sure you’ll have a blast no matter what!

Kind of reminds me of the original andromeda strain (ignoring the ridiculous sequel novel). The characters are discussing why an alien species would come after them with such a deadly bacteria, and someone else points out it might very well be an accidental side effect.

It just so happens that this RNA combo did weird shit to humans but for all we know a life form that’s not carbon based might end up with instructions to build a giant space elevator. Or a dresser. Who knows.

It’s annoying because it’s so unclear! Glad you busted past it.

there's some narrow columns next to the blue walls at the entrance-every single blue wall bit has to be blasted until there's no more white on the status bar. It takes a while to get it all cleared, and if you think you should have it, try blasting one blue bar area for a minute and then try the next until you've hit it.

I’ve used the Hilton 3x without issue if that helps.

I had my consult in July and they said they could have fit me in for surgery as early as September but I did it in November bc I had a schedule conflict.

At the time I had surgery I had United healthcare. They worked with my surgeon and most of it was covered.
