I am not immune to timeline prompt posts. I started HRT when I was 20, and I was on 2mg of estrogen a day for a long time. Attached, we have, roughly: 2 years pre-HRT; 2 years post-HRT; 10 years post-HRT; 18 years post-HRT. Quite happy with the results.

storytime! here’s everything I learned while on the flowers for algernon pill:

our majority-female readership actually responded really well to the printing error with the pages from that week’s 2000 AD, so we’re swapping out this issue’s horoscopes for “summer skincare do’s and don’ts with judge death”

[looking around nervously] huh, I feel like I haven’t seen any big celebrities come out as trans in a while. did we get through the backlog, or..? ha-ha, just kidding it’s all good if the timing doesn’t feel right at the moment. I’ll be honest it doesn’t feel great to me either!!

no, don’t worry, everyone tugged on teacher’s pant leg to let her know their favorite tv show was presented in dolby surround where available

@rosedommu Happy birthday!

Made it to 38!

it’s an availability heuristic—the *real* psychics quit as soon as the runes show them the anti-god beneath our world, so the only ones left selling palm readings or whatever are the fakes. there’s no hope for any of us, we’re all sliding down to suffer under his pitiless gaze

My father never accepted Yoshi's addition to the Mario series only ever referring to him as "The Serpent". "The Serpent is at best a tool not a character", he'd say. One Christmas I asked for Yoshi's Story and instead received a bible. "The Serpent's story is in there", he said

I’m starting to think capitalism may begin to subsume critiques of itself into itself… in this way it could arrest revolutionary spirit and market it back to rebellious youth as a cool aesthetic to be consumed… just a possibility from a brain genius

I want to address the rumors and clarify that I was *not* kicked out of philately club for demanding to see the pornographic stamps, I left of my own accord after finding the explicit content so baroque and extreme I still don’t feel comfortable mailing anything to my family.

I don’t mind all this, I’ve already experienced the best CARRIE adaptation: devouring an excerpt of Stephen King’s ON WRITING—the early days teaching, selling that first story, “plug it up”—in a battered old Reader’s Digest in the waiting room of the barber’s when I was a child

@BCWallin Martin Short gives one of the comedy performances of the century in this.

When people talk about Shakespeare romcoms, they don’t usually mention this one

excited to be filming my anti-war war movie, already picked up a lot of cool shots. oh no.

@whalecrush we’re pretty sure at a certain point they’ll learn to tune out the hum of the machines so well that their ears won’t know how to process sound without it

@aedison Good news in order to run the omelas data centers we've added several additional omelas children.

and how well is she going to do, with all her difficult experiences and her troubled background, after your “revolution” unmakes the society built on her suffering? no, no—I think the omelas child is much better-off where she is

@SnrIlliterate hmmm that doesn’t sound right according to a hip hop musical I saw

@aedison this is how the founding fathers talked about black people

@JuiceSimpsons the omelasposting will continue until morale of the omelas child improves

@aedison I love when you Omelaspost

no, no—I’m not looking to make waves at the office, I can leave my anti-AI stance at home and I would be thrilled to sign an LLM-generated card for the secretary, but it’s just that I already wished her a haha birthdirthy in person

the discovery of immortality pills made my family millions, so unfortunately I stand to inherit nothing

@AgingRanchHand holy. would kill for one of these bad boys.

My buddy asked if I needed anything from England and I jokingly said "two Gregg's sausage rolls" and look what he shows up with

and of course the irony is that when Sam gets to gates of heaven, it will be St. Peter who Neills. #rememberancefor famous #heavencartoonidea #goodidea
