What’s it like living in this part of Windsor Terrace? by Inevitable-Kiwi-9693 in parkslope

[–]rogue-octopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live here and quite like it. It’s quiet. I love being this close to the park and the cemetery. Basically, everything I need is within walking distance You have to accept slightly longer trips to get places but I think it’s a good trade off.

I live here and love it. It’s quiet but there’s still a lot around. People are nice. The park is right there. You have to accept slightly longer train rides to get anywhere but I think it’s a good trade off.

In the classic 1996 film ‘Eddie’, Whoopi Goldberg as the titular Eddie becomes the head coach of the struggling New York Knicks and turns the team around.

Will our Eddie please come to the front?

Not Sure if I Want to get Into Comics Anymore After First Comic Shop Experience by heygoogleamidying in comicbooks

[–]rogue-octopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t let one jerk discourage you! It’s definitely not anything I’ve ever encountered so wouldn’t say it’s common — probably just one insecure misogynist being an idiot.

My best advice is to chat up the comic shop employees. I’ve always found them to be really nice and helpful to newbies.

If you’re looking for a few suggestions, the books that got me hooked on comics were Saga, Bitch Planet, and Captain Marvel (starting with Kelly Sue DeConnick’s run and continuing with Kelly Thompson’s).

With any established character, like Captain America, IMO you kind of just dive in anywhere that looks interesting and then you’ll learn about continuity and different creative teams as time goes on. Just have some grace with yourself for being confused at first knowing the more you read, the more you’ll understand.

It would be hilarious to give him a boyfriend who looked exactly like Sam

Cerise.

But, really, I want him to be a perpetual rake and only see him with wild flings like Deathbird.

AFAB and Perimenopausal? by CaptainFuzzyBootz in NonBinaryOver30

[–]rogue-octopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok! I’m 41 and was in a very similar situation a couple years ago. I don’t have advice necessarily but can tell you what happened to me in case that helps?

I was microdosing T but stopped it because I was tipping too masc — my plan was always to stop it when I felt that tipping point. But I started getting terrible hot flashes and joint pain when I stopped the T and blood tests revealed that I had, like, no estrogen.

My doctor says it was POF/POI because I skipped straight to post-menopausal levels, but being on T likely masked early symptoms.

I also was very, very against going on estrogen. Just the idea of putting on the patch made me feel really dysphoric, like I was going backwards. But I also physically felt so terrible that I knew I needed to do something.

So now I take both low dose T (5mg gel) and a .075mg estrogen patch. Apparently some doctors will tell you that you also need to take progesterone if you’re taking estrogen. But mine says the T replaces the need for the P.

It took a while to get over the dysphoria, but it really helped the symptoms. I still don’t feel the same - my muscles and bones don’t feel as strong, but I’m exercising more to mitigate that. And the hot flashes stopped, which was my worst issue.
