#so 🤷 your mileage may vary

if you are 1) currently in a university where your student healthcare covers hormone therapy, and 2) in a good financial, emotional, and social position to start hormone therapy, i would recommend pursuing it. because in my experience, it's a huge pain in the ass to get an endocrinologist once you're on your own
#unless you live near a planned parenthood or another equivalent to that#but in general you might as well take advantage of the mandatory student health insurance while you have it#it's also cheaper than you might expect. my vials cost $40 CAD for 4 months and then the injection materials are like a couple dollars each#for me i got a therapist with the university and asked them to recommend me to one of the uni's doctors#so i got to skip some of the waitlisting process yay#and then even after getting access to hormones i went to the clinic maybe 5 or 6 times because i needed a nurse to help me with injections#all of which was 'free' because it was with the university#now that i'm graduated though i need to find a new endocrinologist and it turns out the process is WAY more complicated on your own 🤡#of course your mileage may vary depending on how based your school is but it's definitely worth checking imo 🤷#beepbeep.txt#wanted to say this because i basically didn't use the uni health services until my last year and i was like 'wow#'i'm actually getting so much shit for free right now'#like i was seeing a therapist and a dietician and the endocrinologist and a nurse simultaneously at one point#and i might've missed out on all that if i didn't have someone tell me how easy it was to get help if you ask the right questions#so there's my word of wisdom for anyone who might benefit from it.......#also going to post tips about injections later because i think that would also help people out 👍

Re: the innuendos by the LGB characters (from an ace's perspective) (all paraphrased)
Michael's one night stand record: not sure if this is one of them but in the context of him mentioning it to tease Max I don't have a problem with it bc the dude fucks. Whatever we know that.
Isobel's 6 positions: very in character for Isobel imo, and her brother's reacting w needing more tequila for a conversation like that. Isobel has Never been particularly shy about her sex life, whether it was tying up Noah or "the lesbian part" she tried to tell Max about last season to his dismay. I think she does this to tease them bc she knows she also doesn't want to hear about their sex lives (see her face when Michael mentions echo in s1)
Alex's "a man has needs" quip: gross out of context. Definitely. However I'm not taking it like that given the first part of that exchange is him going "it's not like I came back from war" then going "I just came back from war ;)". if they are fwb and given Alex's exclusivity comment later I think they are, I don't think it was a manipulation or anything like that?? I assume that's what we're getting at anyway
Forrest's "did you? Get in okay?": fucking hilarious, and I'm pretty neutral toward forlex as a concept, that was Funny. Alex laughed. More of an opportunistic play on words than something I think he would have said without prompting. It's not like they are actively doing the do. Would have been concerning of he didn't know why the time. Addssdff
I feel like there were other innuendo made by non lgb characters. I mean "I want to make your heart race again" "this won't be more than a one time thing" "how do you know when it's meant to be" but idk being a queer ace I ignore/don't pick up on m/w flirting as much bc it's so boring to me :/ to each their own tho.
#rnm s3 spoilers#innuendos#we can discuss it. I don't have every viewpoint!#like any of this stuff that is supposed to be sexy ends up sounding ridiculous to me and thus funny#so 🤷 your mileage may vary#idk#that's my feelings on the matter
