Finasteride, an anti-androgen, can halt and even reverse hairline receding. So even if OP doesn’t want to go the full HRT route just yet, it’s worth at least starting it to prevent further balding

Except it throws big, scary-looking, fullscreen warnings already…

She clearly got on the squad while presenting male. Male cheerleaders exist? “When she came out” was when the other girls on the squad made the pact.

This doesn’t work for many conditions which can be worsened by graduated exercise. ME/CFS being one of them.

Yo, where did you get this? I use a chair with a similar controller and charging port location, so would love one!

If you believe that his family was punished, then do you believe that the death penalty as used by the justice system is also a punishment on those people’s families? Because kin punishment is generally considered a human rights violation, and is illegal in the US as far as I’m aware.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I guess me not wanting to try to argue the point was toxic. My apologies that I called into question you having a chronic illness though. I’ve wasted too many spoons on arguing with people who don’t about this stuff in the past.

Do you have a chronic illness, or did you just come into this thread to argue with those that do?

Here I am, after sleeping and recovering some spoons. That are precious, that I still don’t want to waste on changing your mind, when you’re clearly not willing to understand.

The fact you can’t respect that I ran out of spoons for arguing the point, kind of just proves my point that you don’t understand the term, doesn’t it?

he eat u lik a snacc :3

You know what, nevermind, I’m done wasting my spoons arguing this point with people in this thread.

While I do like this metaphor, I think it’s not useful as a shorthand. Once you explain spoons to people in your life, and they understand, it’s a useful tool to catch their attention and help them realise that energy isn’t an abundant resource for you.

But it’s not a vital nor precious resource.

I’m sorry, are you trying to argue that spoons aren’t a vital, nor precious, resource for disabled people? Because I disagree vehemently. Please go and read Christine Miserandino’s original post:

Neither of those terms are quite interchangeable though. Everybody has low energy days, that’s relatively normal. But the word spoons is a shorthand for explaining a precious, and much more finite resource, as a way to distinguish the experience for disabled people.

What metaphor would you suggest instead? At least in my experience, the term is becoming understood more and more by the mainstream.

You’ve already gotten some other good answers, but here’s the original post by Christine Miserandino who coined the term: https://butyoudontlooksick.com/articles/written-by-christine/the-spoon-theory/

The reason is that they basically think Ada’s the devil for not making the c/196 mod remove the “(also fuck tankies)” line from the cover image. They defederated with us, ostensibly for that reason, tho I’m fairly sure that it’s because they saw the writing on the wall (that blahaj was going to vote to defederate) and tried to save face.

Anyway there’s a bit of lemmy history for you.

Nah, I think that’s an issue with the jellyfin server. It happens to me too, using Swiftfin on AppleTV.

Think of all the timelapses of chips cooking you could make!
