  • dont feed the troll - felix will say the most misogynistic shit imaginable and then hide behind the smarmiest "its just jokes y u so mad bro??"

    only reason ive not blocked felix is so i can bring this shit up when they post obvious ragebait

  • piracy is stealing and stealing is good

  • Several European countries paused or restricted arms exports with Israel during its military action in Gaza.

    The offensive was triggered by the Hamas-led attack on Israel on 7 October 2023, which killed about 1,200 people, while 251 others were taken to Gaza as hostages.

    More than 72,330 people were then killed by Israeli military action Gaza - including 757 since the ceasefire began on 10 October 2025 - according to the territory's Hamas-run health ministry.

    fuck the bbc - I know I shouldn't be surprised anymore but the audacity to say "well acktually Isntreal was provoked to kill tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza (or that's what the evil Khamas health ministry wants you to believe)" in an article about it's invasion of Lebanon is insane

    why not mention how they've killed hundreds of people in Lebanon - during a supposed ceasefire with Iran - so even if all those people were Hezbollah (spoilers they ain't) it still wouldn't be justified

    at least with the likes of Fox or GBNews you know they're wackos from the start - the fact most British people are swayed to believe anything the bbc says is a crime against critical thought

  • Masked secret police terrorizing our communities. An illegal, catastrophic war putting us in danger and driving up our costs. Attacks on our freedom of speech, our civil rights, our freedom to vote. Costs pushing families to the brink. Trump wants to rule over us as a tyrant. But this is America, and power belongs to the people - not to wannabe kings or their billionaire cronies.

    The second sentence?

  • Thank you so much for sharing! That sounds genuinely terrifying - hope you're staying safe and are managing to get your medicines safely 🙏

    I'm not sure you had a chance to look at the stickies zine I linked in the original post but a major benefit is that you can get:

    10 months’ worth of stickies for every month’s worth of tablets

    This is only 5x if you're already using tablets sublingually or buccal but it's definitely an improvement either way

    I've personally not tried it yet but you can read up on reddit and a lot of people swear by it (you can also up your dosage and do mono if you're finding it hard to get ahold of androcur/anti-andros)

    but yeah I've also heard of a diy lab mixing e-powder into gel and injectables in France - but usually people here find LQBTQ+ friendly professional labs that are willing to test those diy mixtures for purity - I'm guessing that's not really an option?

    again thanks so much for sharing 🫶

  • 100% agree - still I don't think disaster events will be completely overnight but more so increasingly harsher reductions in quality of life - if we get to fully cataclysmic events then yeah it doesn't matter

    but I feel different things will disappear at different rates - food and other necessities will be prioritised but hormones probably not as much - which is why I'm focusing on community as well - I guess my main point was more so as a community what can we do?

    like does it make sense to think more about how vital medicines like hormones (including insulin) can be brewed in local bioreactors?

    I know https://fourthievesvinegar.org/ is a thing but I'm not well enough versed in biochemistry to do much. has anyone tried anything like this with their network?

  • thank you for sharing 🙏

    yeah I've actually wondered about this as well and the good news is that QoL seems to be relatively the same between natural and surgically induced menopause (what transfemmes would be most similar to)

    tho physical effects seem to be much more severe:

    Compared with women of the same age who still had their ovaries, women who were under age 46 when their ovaries were removed were 64% more likely to have arthritis, twice as likely to have obstructive sleep apnea, and nearly three times as likely to have had a bone fracture.

    however they do say that if you're on HRT until 50 the risks are greatly reduced

    I would also imagine that using expired hrt tablets might help as well since they just become less potent over time and from what I've read estradiol tablets are pretty shelf stable so if stored well could retain up to 50% potency for decades post exp. date - might be worth getting some just in case to vaccum seal and store in a cool dark drawer

  • Trans @lemmy.blahaj.zone

    Anyone else worried they'll lose access to hormones when the global supply chain systems start collapsing?

  • this is like saying "since rich people have plantations full of slaves I'm not freeing my one house slave until they free all of theirs"

    and billionaire use the same logic btw - "sure my super yacht creates massive emissions but my personal emissions are nothing compared to 7 billion people's emissions - so why should I reduce mine if the masses won't reduce theirs"

  • If you're gonna share satellite pictures from an article - why did you choose to only share the outdated one from 2013 without any context?

    Instead of the more recent ones that show the school being separated from the complex?

    And yeah sure maybe the regime is fudging the numbers to garner more sympathy but I still feel bombing kids is much worse than lying - and you framing it as "it's a he said she said, so we can't believe anyone" - when there's factual evidence that children were killed by the US-Israel regimes feels like you care more about pedantry than literal child murder

  • What was the post about?

  • I mean that's not new - tech companies will still advertise "coffee on tap" as a perk to work for them

  • idk what anarchists you're around but all the ones I hang out with are vocally pro Iran even if they dont approve of the Ayatollah on principle - but yh I'd take mls over liberals any day of the week - I feel part of it is that anarchists aren't a solid block so while some may block shipments other might fight against what they see as oppression that on a geopolitical scale can result in helping colonial forces - idk we're all imperfect so I hope we can recognize that and through different means still continue to erode imperialism instead of fighting with each other at the benefit of colonizers

  • yeah that's fair - but I feel they serve different purposes?

    like I see anarchism as a form of counterbalance to state power irrespective of where it is - without needing to be dogmatic

    as in undeniably Uruguay is materially much better now than its ever been (while still being at the peak of it's colonial project even under socialist governance)

    same with Bolivia giving relative power to indigenous peoples while improving living conditions even under a corrupt government

    neither is perfect but vastly better than western powers seizing their resources and wage enslaving their populations - same goes for other socialist Global South countries

    and yet I see the value of anarchist "purity" criticism in that it should continue to challenge all governments when the time is right - even socialist ones - as at the end of the day we all want a stateless society - and until then I dont see why anarchism and socialism can't strive to achieve that through productive structural tension?

  • bro wat - I'm yet to see a socialist party group turn up to an anti-fash protest and put themselves in harms way to protect vulnerable groups instead of standing on the side lines selling political newspapers and dipping out as soon as their leaders decide they'd like to go home

  • I knew the BBC was a shithole but the thousands of comments arguing that the problem is not enough people being thrown in prison for stealing chocolate is wild - Thatcher really cemented that individualistic brain rot...

  • Transfem @lemmy.blahaj.zone

    Does anyone else struggle with the concept of self-acceptance and how that relates to their transness?
