#what in the menopause bro

[callmebabygirll0]

No one warns you about that one reoccurring thick ass crazy pubic chin hair you get once you pass 25

[scientia-rex]

I got home from work today sneezing my head off with a right eye that won’t stop watering, took a hot shower, climbed into bed, and I haven’t climbed out since. I’m grumpy and I have a headache and if I’m not testing positive for COVID or debilitated by symptoms tomorrow I’ll still need to go to work because that’s twenty patient visits that would need to be rescheduled, usually with someone else, and that’s twenty people I’m letting down. Today I did one of my patented 45-second Pap smears (if it takes longer than that, your doctor needs to get better!) for someone with vaginal atrophy from menopause (it is both very common and very treatable) and she was in disbelief. (This time it was more like 30 seconds.) I saw a suicidally depressed patient who’s clinging to life with both hands and I changed their meds last week and I am not making them wait to see me. I cleaned a wound no one else gave a shit about and I saw a bitter pissy Republican Party bigwig who has terrible anxiety and depression she doesn’t tell anyone about, who’s alienated everyone but who I can still convince to try treatment.

I do my job on hard mode on purpose. I like being important—who doesn’t? I like being legendary, I like that when people move to town and ask for doctor recommendations on Facebook so many people mention me that other patients feel compelled to tell me about it. I got nominated for best doctor in our local region last year. (I didn’t win, out of 5 nominees.) But when I’m sick, when I’m the kind of sick that can be hidden easily, the kind of sick I was always expected to go to school and rotations and residency with, it’s so hard. I hate exposing patients, even to a cold, but the benefits of receiving care are probably enough to outweigh the chance of transmission. I wrestle with myself: if I call in, it starts a ripple effect. Can they get a per diem from their “pool” (of three) to come in? Can they reschedule my patients with me? I don’t have any open spots for five weeks. Can they open same days? None available for three weeks. Can they open blocked spots? That’s going to make my life hell when I come back from being sick. That’s clinic staff calling twenty patients, trying to reach them. That’s twenty patients who feel abandoned. They can know intellectually that doctors get sick too, but they don’t believe it. They take it personally. I have seen this over and over again, until I had to believe it.

It is so EASY for people who don’t do this job to tell me how I’m doing it wrong. “Just stay home!” Oh, okay, you want to tell the person whose chronic opioids I’m supposed to write for that I can’t? You want to put the nurses through getting the on-call to write a bridge prescription? I write more ADHD meds than most of my peers—usually a lot more. You want to tell my colleagues to write meds they’re uncomfortable with? How about tell my suicidal patients (which is a lot of them!) that the provider they know and trust after months or years will be replaced today by a 70-year-old white man who still thinks they should pull themselves up by their bootstraps? Tell my queer patients that they have to wait until I’m better and back to get their hormones and their STI screenings, reschedule a Pap someone was dreading. Every day is a kaleidoscope of opportunities to make a real connection with “difficult” patients. I’m good at it. I may be the best at it at my clinic.

I don’t hate calling in sick just because the clinic manager is a judgy bitch, though that doesn’t help. I hate it because of what it does to my patients. And it’s not simple. Pretending it is does all of us a disservice. I am not a widget. I am not easily replaceable. You can’t plug any of our per diems (all men, 2/3 white, 2/3 old, 1/3 a Bitcoin bro) into my place and call it an equivalent, and my schedule is already so packed that if I call in sick, patients will be guilt-tripping me about it for months. I’m not kidding. That happens every single time.

Christ alive, I wish it was true that doctors never got sick.

Dean Obeidallah at The Dean's Report:

Donald Trump apparently gets that women aren’t going vote for the guy who is an adjudicated rapist and who was “honored” to strip women of the constitutional right to reproductive freedom. It didn’t help that Trump’s hand-picked running mate JD Vance has mocked women without children as “childless cat ladies”  and agreed that the primary role of post-menopausal women is to help raise other people’s children. Consequently, Vice President Harris is crushing Trump when it comes to the support of female voters--especially in key battleground states such as Pennsylvania which shows Harris with 55% of the support of women to Trump’s 41%.

It's so bad for Trump that as Politico reported Friday, the Trump campaign has “given up on the idea that they can get women.” That is why Trump’s new strategy to counter the strong support of women for Harris is to court the “bro vote”--which is young men who are primarily (but not exclusively) white. As Politico notes, “Trump is betting that support from young men will help propel him to the White House.” To that end, Trump has appeared on podcasts that attract a large audience of young men—as we saw this week with his appearance on a podcast hosted by several male comedians. Although that appearance didn’t go as well as Trump had hoped because the headline from it was that one of the co-hosts, comedian Andrew Schulz, literally laughed in Trumps’ face when Trump declared that he’s, “basically a truthful person”

But here’s the spoiler: If Trump is counting on young men to come out in big numbers to save him from the power of female voters, he has already lost.

Before I get into the data, let’s be brutally honest. We all know young men-in fact, I used to be one. No group of people is less reliable than young dudes who are 18 to mid 20’s. Sure, there are exceptions, but as a group, young men are the easiest to distract, least focused people I know. They may tell Trump campaign workers they will vote, but if there is a big game on TV, or someone brings over some weed, a pizza gets delivered, etc., we know what the result will be. They will not stop having fun to get off their couch, travel to the voting location, stand on a line and cast a ballot. The data backs this up. In the 2020 presidential election, guess who came out to vote more: Young women or men? You know the answer.  Fifty five percent of young women cast a ballot compared to just 44% of young men—as documented by Tufts University Center that studies “Youth Voting and Civic Engagement in America.” In fact, that gender gap of 11% more women voting was “true for every racial/ethnic group for which we have reliable data,” as Tufts noted. And it gets worse for Trump. If men and women of all ages turned out to vote in the same percentages, the similar gender gaps we are seeing with Trump leading men and Harris leading women would in essence cancel themselves out. But as the data tells us, that has not been the case for decades.

[...] As opposed to Trump who has gone full “toxic masculinity” and written off attracting more women voters, Harris is still working hard to attract male voters.  In fact, on Friday, Harris’s running mate, Tim Walz, kicked off a campaign to secure more male voters that includes new ads and interviews in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin focused on hunting and high school football. In addition, the Harris campaign recently roll out endorsements by Hall of Fame athletes. There’s something else at play here that undermines Trump’s “Bro-vote” strategy. The women voting for Harris are not casting a ballot for simply a politician. Many of them are casting a ballot for Harris in the effort to protect their own self-determination. They don’t want Republicans like Trump, JD Vance etc., passing a national law that would force them to carry a fetus against their will. They want to make those type of personal health decisions based on what is right for each of them. In contrast, where is the skin in the game for the young “bros” Trump is courting?! To them it’s nothing more than rooting for a favorite sports team. I would predict the percentage of women who will vote in 2024 will eclipse what we saw in 2020 given this is the first presidential election since Trump/GOP Supreme Court ended Roe v. Wade. It’s actually fitting that women will be leading the charge to defeat Trump—the avatar for misogyny—while making history electing the first female President in our nation’s history

Donald Trump’s bro culture-centric campaign by frequenting podcasts with heavily male audiences that lean right such as Nelk Boys’ Full Send Podcast and Adin Ross’s could end up being either a genius move for him or be the move that kills his chances at the election.

SPOILERS FOR THE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC FIRST EPISODE OF OS2 X BBS

(I’m on the far, far end of the international date line, so hopefully most of y’all have seen it or are close to seeing it...)

I MEAN?!?!?!?! I MEEEEANNNNNN?!?!??!?!?!!?

Maybe I was a little (okay, A LOT) worried that these episodes would feel like an appendage, maybe in kind of the way I felt The Eclipse episodes turned out (but I really need to rewatch those again).

But how could I not trust Aof? It almost seems like he started writing this as soon as he was done with BOTH BBS and ATOTS to put this story together. 

I was getting mixed up in mom brain with @miscellar a few days ago, thinking that there was going to be a body swap thingy, and kind of groaning about it, so I’m SO SO GLAD I WAS WRONG, and that this is going to be set up to be a mini-drama about two couples going through their growth shit. 

I dunno, y’all. What can I say. The MAJORITY of you all have been waiting MUCH LONGER than me to see Pran and Pat reunited, as I only watched Bad Buddy in January, and ATOTS late last year, but still, really -- I have this seriously strong sense of nostalgia that I am so happy to see Pat and Pran HAPPY, and/or at least working on their relationship, AND, JESUS, to see Phupha and TIAN TOGETHER, and omg, THAT MUSIC THAT PLAYED WHEN PHUPHA TURNED HIS HEAD and Pran was googly-eyed, and I was literally DYING AT THIS STARBUCKS, actually covering my mouth with giggles because not only is it so good to see all these guys back, but ALL OF THEM TOGETHER, and acting together, and FUCK, THIS WHOLE TWO-WEEK DEAL IS GOING TO BE SO FUCKING GOOD.

Like, this storyline does NOT seem played out. (Listen, I enjoyed PatWai.)

Honestly, I can’t really conjure analysis, LOL. I’m just too overwhelmed. The fucking shots of Chiang Mai and Pha Pun Dao. Pran sticking his hand out of the car and seeing the green hills. PRAN IS THERE, Y’ALL, PRAN. I mean --

IT’S DOUBLE NOSTALGIA TIME. THAT’S WHAT AOF DID, THAT’S WHAT HE’S DOING TO US!!!!!!

GAAAAAHHHHH. I think that’s it. I’m getting hit TWICE, Y’ALL, TWICE WITH THE FEELS! PatPran, PhuphaTian! Flashbacks to Tinidee and Chiang Mai! Campus and hills of tea! It’s too much! Too much for an almost menopausal woman like myself! I’m fuckin’ gonna give myself hot flashes with this shit!

And Tian is SO FEISTY, UGH, and Pat is SO DETERMINED but still making silly mistakes, but being SO HONEST and reflective about those mistakes, and Pran is still such a buggy little SHIT, but has opened up so much, as we can see, to be open and honest about his feelings, while these guys still know and maybe slightly regret that they have to keep things secret.

I FUCKING LOVE THAT THIS EPISODE MADE MULTIPLE REFERENCES TO UNCLE TONG AND THE IMPACT THAT HE HAD ON THEM. THAT THEIR HONEYMOON TRIP WAS THE LAST TIME THEY COULD BE OPEN AND OUT TOGETHER.

I might have more to say later, but I’m just agog right now. This was so well done, at least so far. These guys fucking hauled ass to do this show, I mean, Ohm had finished filming Double Savage like the day before this. I’m shaking my damn head. This was fun, it was flirty, it was emotional, the bros are still fucking bro-ing (WTF KORN, BTW! I mean, did you out them, or was that a slightly homophobic comment?!), it’s filmed BEAUTIFULLY, but what would you expect of Aof otherwise. 

I mean. I just wrote a whole bunch of gibberish, but I honestly have no words. I’m so, so, so, so, so, so, so glad to have all of these guys back, in one place, all four of them, acting together, working together (PAT IN THE CLASSROOM OMFG I’M GONNA DIIEEEEEEE TOMORROWWWWW). 

I’m a CROSSOVER STAN, NO PROBLEMS WITH IT. I AM SUITED AND SEATED FOR IT. Ohm x Nanon x Earth x Mix -- FUCK. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Okay I'm sure we all have spent way too much time thinking about speedster biology in various contexts for fic reasons, but you know what I cannot stop thinking about? How does speedster biology affect the menstrual cycle???

It must do, right? It has so many effects on the body---rapid metabolism, speed healing, potentially immortality (let's not open that can of worms again lmao), increased cell reproduction rate, etc. There's no way that it doesn't have some effect on their periods.

We know that speedsters (at least those with penises/testes etc.) can reproduce, so clearly it doesn't cause sufficient havoc to make them infertile---though there is some evidence to suggest that it could make it harder to conceive, since it takes Barry and Iris quite a while to get pregnant with Nora (interesting, since I always kinda figured speedster biology would increase the sperm count, but that's probs more to do with fandom brain rot making me convinced speedsters have a higher libido; not sure there was ever any canon evidence of that).

Realistically they probably did this for TV reasons, because by the rules of fiction, TV characters get pregnant easily when they do not want to, but if they're trying, then it will be incredibly difficult and take months to the point that they're like "ugh, we have to have sex AGAIN i guess even though we'd rather be doing literally anything else" (I'm looking at you Flash AND B99, I hate this trope, if sex is becoming a chore maybe you should uh. not do it for a while?)

Also, Jay Garrick and Joan, the only other speedster/normal person couple we know, don't have kids that we know of. Again, maybe they just didn't want them, maybe they met after Joan was menopausal, not sure we ever got confirmation either way, but that could be a point towards the speedforce affecting the reproductive system.

Anyways, either way the show doesn't address how speedster biology affects periods. They probably never thought about it, honestly; everyone knows characters on TV don't have periods, they figure out they're pregnant due to sudden random morning sickness, not a tampon or period tracking app in sight. But EYE am thinking about it.

If every process in the body speeds up, do they have more frequent periods that are just over really quickly? (Not sure if this would be better or worse than the usual kind? Probably worse, defo more annoying.) And if so, what is the hormonal cycle like? Are some speedsters going through mini PMS cycles on a weekly basis? (My thoughts and prayers are with them if so.) Are their periods super irregular? Do their periods maybe stop entirely at some points, due to the strain of constantly running around and the struggle of eating enough to maintain the body weight required to stay regular? This is something that happens with regular old athletes, so it could definitely happen to a speedster that burns a huge amount of calories and is EXTREMELY physically active.

Also, does the healing factor affect the duration of the period? That's one point in favour of a faster cycle, maybe a lighter flow, reduced cramps?? Imagine how much those period hunger cravings would suck when you already have to eat like 15000 calories a day! Like if I, as a person with a standard metabolism, feel the urge to devour everything in sight at that time of the month, how much worse would it be as a speedster for whom "constantly starving" is the default?

Of course, the most boring option is that they're just normal periods, and that's probably what the writers would say, if pushed. that's the coward's answer, tbh, but hey, maybe their periods are normal.  We never see any of the female speedsters on the show attempt to get pregnant, so again, we can't say if they would have difficulties, maybe they'd ovulate totally normally. Maybe Barry and Iris had issues just because sometimes people do just struggle to get pregnant for whatever reason. either way, it's SO interesting to think about.

Anyway this ramble was brought to you by me working on a fic where Iris becomes the Flash instead of Barry and making a throwaway reference to her having PMS and then being like WAIT. WHAT HAPPENS TO HER PERIOD. INQUIRING MINDS NEED TO KNOW.

What does capitalism taste like

Does it taste like white picket fences and 2.5 kids

What about a dog in the backyard and BBQs on the weekend

Knowing all your neighbors names and having the HOA on speed dial

Does it taste like the life you want to live?

Are the HOA in your contacts because they keep calling you

Or are you calling them

Does that complicated C word taste the homogeneity in your neighborhood

Where the police arrive in 2 seconds flat, with a gate and a patrol to match

Does it taste like "I'll wait here for your manager" and weekends at the golf course

Does it taste like a martini because the trophy spouse has a long day?

Does it taste like security cams and a ranch on the property with the stable boys and the guest house to the side with the cabana ones?

Does it taste like equestrianship is in your blood from birth? What about fencing?

Does it taste like ivy league vines crawling up babies spines from birth?

Does it taste like "Harvard is your dream not mine" and then rebellion

Does rebellion look like a fully funded backpack trip to Europe with your first great love

Or does it look like "I'm going to work for my parents equally rich rival company"

Or does it look like different freedom, independence, simply a different life

Where you can still ask your parents for money because you reached a happy ever after in the movie

What does capitalism taste like

Happily ever after is fake for us real folks so it must hold true for those up top right?

People in gated communities who's stepford mother's figures are earned with the local book club

Who's menopause kicks in at the same pace because we're all just clucking hens bonding together aren't we

Aren't we all just girls looking to connect with other girls in line for the bathroom?

Let's be honest, we all have some kind of mommy issue don't we? #justgirlythings

And what about the men? Is it really just an opportunity to measure up?

Is it a subtle side eye to measure manhood, even tho bro code states "thou must not make eye contact with another bro I'm the bathroom"

Doe you feel like enough when you see a guy like your ex is now dating

Do you feel reassured when you notice your manhood is better?

Why does size matter?

Why am I automatically called "a little lady" by cowboys who are raised to believe "bigger in Texas" really means better

Is this what capitalism does

Does "be a man" follow men into the bathroom like "don't be a pussy" does for women?

Why must public communal bathrooms make us decide a gender right at that moment

Can't we measure a bathroom by the content of their room?

Stalls or urinals? Privacy or not? Right this way fellow citizen

Citizen. Human. Person. Life.

What does capitalism taste like

Does it taste like legislation against the gays?

No cakes no websites no space no homos

No healthcare no rights no sports pro bono

Hare dare anyone use pronouns! Fake news!

Them libs want you to think you can be referred to anything but your name. It's the devil's work

Didnt you hear that song? Call me by your name? He was a devil in the music I daresay! The devil!!

I'd let the devil fuck me

At least he would treat me right and show me a good time

What has capitalism done

This thing we fought for so that all our founders' legacies might have a future

Future away from tyranny and taxation and being slaves to our king

We have no kind any more, no crown jewels to protect, but we act the same

Why is the one who's always on top always the winner who writes the history

The winner who's educated

from a family with money

who were taught good Christian values

with a fencing rapier in hand and

Shakespeare in their veins

Is this what capitalism does

Dilutes us to the elite

Homogeneous suburbia and "all you need is fairy tales and you can be rich too"

Political correctness and "just find a man to solve your problems"

Register to vote and "be a man or you're not good enough"

It's not just little girls who get told their not good enough

The gender non conforming community has definitely unlocked a whole cheat code on life

That and the furries who have been the scientific backbone of this country for eons

But why do my apples taste not like what an apple tree looks like in the movies?

The one in the corner of Mamma Mia on the isle in Greece

Where my problems were solved by not getting married but traveling the world as a skinny white woman with her Kenough manly man

Singing voice for character wink

Why don't my apples taste like those on the Grecian island where the stories of the locals are forgotten to the American story, the American dream

I escaped my mom and became one myself

I'm a self made woman now

With a mortgage she can't pay and life problems that were clearly solved by marrying the man who hurt her the most in life

Why doesn't my apple taste like how that apple tree looks?

Why doesn't it taste like the apple from the garden?

Why doesn't it taste like the freedom eve must have felt when she disobeyed

Why is the taste of temptation diluted in my cheap apple from the superstore in the fruit section

Does it taste like pesticide and FDA regulations

Who keeps them in check? The CDC? WHO?

The DOJ or FBI or NAFTA or the Geneva convention

Was it a Geneva suggestion or a line from the treaty of Versailles or did agent orange bring us here

How many babies were born deformed before I ate this apple

And how many nat GMO products have I consumed that my human body has endured?

What does capitalism taste like? Because I swear, remaining tribal lands must not be like this

Forgotten poor African villages eat different

Forgotten poor native south America cultures remain intact on top of mountains that the white or Spanish or French have not yet learned to monetize

And now they will never because the people on the ground know better and are stronger

And capitalism stays the same

Progress is progress no matter how small

But all this progress

Is it good for us

Good for our taste buds

They say to beware vaccines and microchips but aren't we already a cyborg because we carry a favored microchip in our hands?

The ones we avoid calls from home on and instead laugh at cat videos

We share, bare our souls online to strangers but the people in our lives could never break our pokerface

But if we were born this way

Would we ever know what capitalism tastes like

If we don't ask someone else?

Does capitalism taste like the additive sugar in a fun size bar of crunch

Does it taste like the chocolate take over energy found in the Nestle headquarters

Or does it taste like the cocaine they put into coca cola to keep people buying more

I'm not convinced that the girl scouts didn't take that idea for themselves

Does capitalism taste like the working conditions of these massive corporate overlords

Or the factories where they bottle and bag and package comfort for 1.25

Does it taste the endless metallic conveyor belts

Or the chance that peanuts were used in any of those products

Does it taste like our countries trade deal for cheap products made from other companies

Does it taste like the the sweat shops that make your favorite new shirt or those fashionable high tops

Does it take like the abused labor that built this country

Does it taste like all the ghost statues of people who should have been memorialized instead of forgettable white men from history

Does it taste like the rust they should have earned all along

Or does it taste like the pain of forgotten artists

The heart of Harlem the beasts of Boston the cheeps of the Cherokee

Does it sound like the ones who's names we forget

The neglected breaks of the Oregon trail the gentrification of the only pockets of culture in this country

The Japanese internment camps

Border patrol and the place where there was almost a wall

Are the tears of all the family members of witches still a part of Salem

What about the hurt caused by the fights for gender equality that excluded black women

Does capitalism taste like Jim Crow or strange fruit

Just because it's rotting in the back doesn't mean it's in our past

These caged birds still sing can't you hear?

I fear for my brother and my niece and my nephew daily, their lives matter too

Friends neighbors family

They're still part of your labor or did you forget what The 13th taught us

Toni Morrison, Frederick Douglas

Miles Davis, Billie Holliday

MLK and Malcom X

HER and Missy Elliott

They run in our veins

The revolution is not televised

Stonewall certainly can't be told by anyone else

Nor can we forget the power of black trans women in the creation of pride spaces

What about the flyover cities that are meant for rural living with signs screaming "no airport here"

The pain of the indigenous people who's land a mindless mall was built over

Being given back land that belonged to those born here ages past

Ancestral home can be yours with a side of steak knives

And while I'm here can I interest you in the Book of Mormon

What about their tears? Their blood their breaks their pain

Does capitalism taste like that?

The endless lost even now and memorialized in art with a red handprint to their portrait

The lack of water and resources to land promised back

Ancestral home returned but you're on your own. Unless you're ready to hear about our Lord and savior

When will we realize we aren't a savior to begin with

Is this what capitalism tastes like?

Institutions built for white people who forgot that the land isn't theirs and never was

Home of the brave where those with the most force and money can get anywhere

We're the underdogs, the land of opportunity, come on by

You just have to follow these few simple rules

So if you're not perfect or cookie cutter, don't worry we'll just sand around the edges

So you'll fit into these boxes and society can know what to do with you

But if you're too much or not enough be ready to hate the rest of your days here

Welcome to the country of goldilocks and fuck you if you're not "just right"

What does capitalism taste like for you?

[firsttarotreader]

Girl, what a week on LSA, I tell you 🥴🤣 and all because one of the girls brought up that Lena tweet! I never thought a 100 years old subject still makes one or two people go apeshit LOL as soon as the girls started to talk about it and one or two people saw it and noticed the girls all had a consensus that Lena and Pedro were indeed a thing they went there, shat on their hands and threw it all over the place, all because the girls dared to talk about... a woman! 😏 and these folks still think they can fool anyone by playing the unphased bitch and be like "ah please, I dont care, YOU crazy, me not" LOL all the girls in that forum, the ones that post and the dozens and dozens that lurk already know who is the insane stalker having a menopause crisis and they also know that all these people do all day IS to care. There is NOTHING they say that will be believed, compulsive liars can fuck off. The majority of this fandom is having a BLAST, and we will bring up women as much as we want 😎

Bro, it was so so obvious what really made her go berserk on the thread this week. 🤣🤣🤣 But also keep in mind we have young fans as weirdos too, okay? We have weirdos of different ages! 👀 And we can bring up people of all genders, things just need to at least make sense to be talked about. 🤣🤣🤣

[knackfandomarchive]

I agree with your bro, Lucas seems 16-17 in the first game (very stubborn teenager energy), and I'd surmise there was a 5 year gap between games (seemingly since The Boys™ aren't living with the doc anymore). For everyone else I'd say in the first one:

Ryder - 30 (or late 20s, early 30s)

Doc - 58

Charlotte - 54

Katarina - 26

That's just the vibes though lol

Yeah, Lucas is hard to figure out. The way he acts in the first game vs the second is way different, and trying to reconcile what the other characters say is hard. At one point, I did believe he was 15 in the first and about 20 in the second. I even had a sort of gag line that also hurt my heart, when Knack is in Xander’s dungeon and he gets sad about possibly missing Lucas’s 21st birthday.

I'd probably have to make a whole post examining the games and such; trying to type it up here gets pretty wall-of-texty. There's plenty of evidence to make several different cases. My quick explanation is that the doctor's complaining in 1 made it seem like Lucas just got into the throes of puberty, about middle-school age (and middle school sucks!) Hence 12. And Lucas's complaining of Charlotte's mothering in 2 seemed like something a mid-teen would say.

How old might one expect a "youth leader" like Ava to be?

I definitely agree that Ryder is in his late 20s or early 30s, and Katrina’s age seems reasonable to be mid 20s. Just based on vibes.

I haven't yet decided how old Charlotte and the Doctor are. From what I've heard, menopause does some crazy stuff.

(Now I'm wondering how old Viktor is, considering some of his dialogue about seemingly knowing what the Doctor was like before Charlotte)

Anyway, thank you so much for sharing! 😊

*Googles it*

WHAT?!?!??!

OKAY DON'T GOOGLE THAT. HOLY SHIT.

THIS MAN JUST INSULTED A WOMAN'S FERTILITY AND CALLED HER OLD. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!?

DUDE, YOU CAN'T JUST SAY THAT TO PEOPLE AND TREAT IT LIKE A CASUAL JAB. THAT'S A SERIOUS THING.

First sentence out of fire crop top man's mouth and he pissed me off...

"I have to tweet this."

WAIT NOW YOU'RE MAKING FUN OF IT?! BRUH.

I HATE YOU BOTH.

"Excuse me? That shouldn't be taken as a joke."

THANK YOU. THANK YOU LADY.

"What joke?"

...

And you're not aware?

I had to google that. YOU MADE ME GOOGLE THAT. You knew what it was.

You just implied you had full intention of insulting a woman's age and fertilty.

...Okay. Okay.

I'm not laughing.

(I learned what Menopause was because of Disventure Camp. This is real now.)

***

"And that's how I reached a million followers on my Instagram with my choreographies."

"Wow. How come I didn't know you?"

"I'm popular in Korea, but not so much on this side of the world. That's why I like to come here. To go unnoticed."

"In Korea, I'm cancelled for insulting women. I don't know what they're talking about. I did nothing wrong. I made an apology video, so all is good."

***

"What? The two of them are on teams? But we were told that the last two would be eliminated?"

The way he said that was so WHINY. OMG.

And y'all thought Jake was whiny? THIS GUY.

"BUT MOOOOOOOOM, WHY DO I HAVE TO HANG OUT WITH THE OLD MAN. I DON'T WANNAAAAAA. WHAAAAA..."

***

"When I was fifteen, I participated in a dance contest. Back then I didn't want to do it, my parents forced me, but of course I did exceptionally well."

So you're naturally talented.

"That's how I achieved my dreams! I didn't even have to try! Cause I'm so awesome!"

"I can't complain about having my own servants."

SERVANTS?! BRUH.

"Bro, it's not cool to call someone who has a name a servant."

"Well, that's what they are."

😒

I don't like you. No sir I do not like you.

"If you have fame and money, what are you doing here?"

RIGHT?! Why ARE you here?!

"A few weeks ago I accidentally pushed this old lady down an escalator inside one of our shopping malls."

What the fuck...

"You know, an old Chinese Proverb says "The fox never-""

"I'm not interested."

I think I don't like it cause it's trying WAY TOO HARD to make this guy hateable.

Congrats, I hate him, you're doing your job.

I miss Grett. Grett was an entertaining bad bitch.

***

"The other team has an advantage."

"Advantage in what?"

"They have an ogre."

OH SHUT UP.

***

"I wanted to propose something to you."

"If I join you and we all vote together, we would only need one more person and we could vote out whoever we want."

Last time someone proposed this in the first episode, EVERYONE on that alliance got wiped out Pre-Merge.

But if that means this guy is one of them, then sure, take it.

***

Yul fucking SUCKS. I'm sorry.

I get him being unlikeable is on purpose. I don't care.

Fiore was intentionally made to be unlikeable and I didn't hate her.

Grett was intentionally made to be unlikeable and I LOVED HER.

This guy ain't doing it for me.

You also KNOW a character is nasty when the first line that comes out of their mouth makes you google something you wish you didn't.

***

"Kai, the team is gathered on this side. What were you doing with the Orange Team?"

WHO SAID THAT?!

"I hope you're not thinking of betraying our team."

HOW WOULD HE DO THAT?! HOW WOULD THAT BENEFIT HIM AT ALL?

"Betrayal is a pretty negative word."

"You have to be loyal to the team or we will eliminate you!"

Um, EXCUSE ME, ARE YOU HOLDING THE TEAM TOGETHER?!

NO? DIDN'T THINK SO. YOU'RE TOO BUSY BEING AN ASS TO EVERYONE.

"Dude, we can't be eliminated on this plain."

XD

Okay that was good XD

"Don't you DARE talk to me like that!"

About what?

YOU'RE A BRAT.

"Attention everyone! Kai is making alliances with the other team!"

AND NOW YOU'RE GONNA TATTLE ABOUT NOTHING.

Oh my god this guy is WHINY...

Ellie's probably watching this at home, like "Oh wow... I feel like I should apologize to Jake."

"Uh... it's fine with me."

"Don't look at me. I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative."

I love that they don't care.

"Just look at his junkie face! You know he can't be trusted!"

Oh my god...

He sounds like a Twitter user.

When your side of the argument doesn't get through to people as the objective fact that it obviously is, what do you do? THROW INSULTS AND ACCUSATIONS. THAT'LL SHOW THEM.

"If you don't agree with me, you're *CENSORED*"

"No man, I don't do drugs... too much..."

WHAT THE HELL?!

THE FACT THAT YOU DO DRUGS AT ALL.

"And you Yul, stop being so prejudice and whiny! Next time you want to judge someone based on their looks, do yourself a favor and say nothing!"

👏

FACTS

"I wanted to yell at him for talking to me like that, but I couldn't utter the words out of my mouth..."

Yeah I hope you get booted first from this team now.

"It's clear that Yul exaggerates and behaves like a spoiled child, but I don't want to get in trouble with anyone. Being here means a lot to me, and I don't want anything to ruin it."

Fair. I would do the same thing.

(Best Girl Riya being the queen she is right there)

***

"Riya and Yul are the first!"

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

NO I HATE THAT

I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO MAKE OUT WITH YUL

That's the worst birthday present ever.

"Just imagine that you're acting for a scene."

I mean, yeah, that's the acting industry advice...

"Be yourself! But also ACT LIKE SOMEONE ELSE, OR YOU WILL FAIL."

(Foreshadowing)

This poor girliepop.

I WOULD BARF IF I HAD TO KISS HIM TOO

(Can we get an F for best girl Riya?)

***

"HA! I think it's clear that challenge ends here."

ARE YOU THAT PETTY?!

(Throwing a challenge just because you don't like someone. What a great villain 🙄)

"Okay! It's over! I'm going to kick his ass!"

ROSA XD

Girl is ready to FIGHT

GET HIM GIRL

(Let Rosa slay)

I also like how the subtitle says "I'm going to break your mother"

I'm DEAD XD

"No soul gets rich by hurting another."

"Oh please. Don't be hypocrites."

Hypocrites? You're the only one here that's being INSUFFERABLE.

"We all know that if anybody was up with that monster it was game over."

He is basing this off of NOTHING.

He'd rather LOSE THE GAME than take a chill pill and not be a dick to EVERYONE.

"That's enough Yul! If you don't want to do it, that's fine, but you don't need to offend her."

"Since when is telling the truth offensive?"

He is literally just Velma.

I HAD TO SAY IT.

"Well, I would kiss her here and now, you know?"

Thank you Rosa.

"And it's because of that ease of affection that you entered motherhood so soon, right?"

OH. MY GOD.

FUCK THIS MAN.

FUCK YUL.

FUCK. YUL.

SOMEBODY PUNCH HIM RIGHT IN THE NOSE TILL IT BLEEDS.

(I'm actually ANRGY)

He gains absolutely NOTHING from acting like this!

"YES! YES I DO YOU MISERABLE PIECE OF SHIT!"

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH

GET HIM

"If you were a real man, you would realize how beautiful Maggy is! Her soul is so pure and her heart is so big that it would imitate the sun on a rainy day! But of course an idiot son of a bitchfucker could never notice it!"

😂👏

YEEEEEEESSS

"I'm sure you don't have any friends and your parents only sent you here to keep you entertained and get away from you for awhile! Sure now that you're not there, they're finally happy and I don't blame them! After all, all their son is, is just a piece of shit asshole motherfucker!"

YEEEEEESSSS

😂👏

GET. HIS. ASS.

GET HIS ASS DUDE.

READ THIS MAN FOR FILTH.

Even the doll is like "Whoa... someone had the guts." XD

"The universe heard Golden's voice and told me she wanted Yul dragged through the mud. So I had to oblige."

So that's it. Yul's gone. EVERYONE HATES HIM.

OH PLEASE GIVE ME THE SATSFACTION OF SEEING YUL GONE

(Oh how I wish it was true...)

"I swore to cleanse my soul of negative energy, and I ended up exploding in front of everyone."

Sure... but it's Yul so that makes it okay.

"But you know, if you ask me, what you did was pretty noble."

"Insult Yul?"

HELL YES.

DO NOT FEEL BAD.

***

"What are you doing standing there?"

"THIS IS MY ASSHOLE POSE. FOR ASSHOLES ONLY."

"Where is Tess? Our alliance must make a decision!"

Oh yeah I forgot they allied.

WHO would want to stay allies with you after what happened?!

Are you seriously gonna work with this guy?

I THINK YUL'S EXISTENCE TRUMPS ALL GAME STRATEGY.

IF YOU'RE WITH YUL, YOUR STRATEGY SUCKS.

I DON'T MAKE THE RULES.

GET YUL OUT

FLIP ON YUL

NOBODY WANTS HIM HERE

'YUL'

😄

'KAI'

Oh come on HE DID WHAT WAS RIGHT

'YUL'

😄

Every Yul vote, my heart SINGS

'KAI'

Every Kai vote, my heart SINKS

'YUL'

Come on, PLEASE GET YUL OUT

I am begging with glossy eyes. GET HIM OUT.

'KAI'

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!

I'm actually SO UPSET.

NOT BECAUSE KAI IS GONE. BUT BECAUSE YUL IS STAYING.

REALLY?! YUL COSTS THE CHALLENGE AND IS A DICK TO EVERYBODY AND KAI IS THE ONE THAT PAYS FOR IT?!

"I'm grateful for how you filled my soul with joy... except Yul, you fuck yourself."

👏

"However, you won't be leaving alone."

Wait what?

"They will vote again and eliminate another member of the team!"

OH WHAT?!?!

IT'S A DOUBLE?!?!?!?

THERE WAS NO WARNING. WHAT?!?!?

WAIT DOES THIS MEAN YUL STILL GOES!?!?!

HAVE MY PRAYERS BEEN ANSWERED?!

"I think I know exactly who we're voting for!"

Oh fuck off, the trio AIN'T WORKING FOR YOU.

EVERYONE COMBINE YOUR POWERS TO SLAY YUL

DO IT

EVERYONE GETS SLAY PASS. EVERYBODY. USE IT ON YUL.

"I'll leave voluntarily."

...

Why...? Why would you do that?

You could've all worked together to get Yul out.

I'm not mad. Just disappointed.

Oh who am I kidding? I'm pissed off.

(The objectively correct tier list)

This man is now going DOWN DOWN DOWN on my tier list.

I HATE THIS MAN NOW.

I HATE HIM BECAUSE HE SAVED YUL.

***

I FUCKING HATE YUL. AND I WANT HIM GONE.

And he probably WON'T go. That's the most frustrating thing about that.

There's absolutely NOTHING redeemable about him. He is a dick to EVERYBODY and constantly body shames, trauma shames, is racist, is sexist, is all kinda of asshole, and any positive traits? What's that?

He's not even entertaining. He's just dryly saying all of this stuff and gains NOTHING from it.

"Hold on Golden! You love Grett! Why do you hate Yul this much?"

First off, GRETT WAS A QUEEN, DO NOT COMPARE HER TO THIS MAN.

Second, she had actual depth and characterization to her and why she acted the way she did.

Third, SHE WAS ACTUALLY AN EFFECTIVE VILLAIN WHO KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING.

YUL DOES NOT.

The idea that ANYBODY would ally with this asshole is a JOKE.

Gabby had the excuse of being desperate and an outcast and had no other choice.

HUNTER DOES NOT.

They could've, SO EASILY, FLIPPED ON YUL, IT'S ENRAGING.

AND THEN CONNOR QUITS WHEN THEY SO EASILY COULD'VE DONE THAT-

I hate Connor. Just for that. I hate Connor. I didn't care for him because his development was so fast and so unnatural. But JUST FOR QUITTING, I hate him.

At least his friendship with Riya was a redeeming quality.

I would be fine with Yul if he was, at least, a decent villain. BUT SO FAR, HE IS NOT. HE COST THE TEAM THE CHALLENGE.

YOU GAIN NOTHING FROM THAT.

I just... UUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHH I WANT HIM OUT

At least Kai read him for filth. That was the best part of this episode.

Kai COMPLETELY redeemed himself JUST FOR ROASTING YUL.

So how about this: If you slay Yul, you are an automatic S tier and you get my respect.

(Okay maybe not S Tier, but you'd get my respect.)

No more kissing for the rest of the season, Hunter is an Aromantic icon, FUCK YUL.

Peace.

***

I have the power, right?

If my headings manifest misfortune on the people on it, THEN HERE I AM

I AM MANIFESTING MY POWERS TO STRIKE DOWN THIS MAN BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY

I WANT HIM GONE

...

That's all I wanted to say. There's nothing else that's important.

***

"Hey girls! Good morning. I'm going on a walk in case anyone wants to join."

Oh, you seem to be doing well...

Which is a shock to me considering your only friend here is now out of the game.

I STILL HATE YOU CONNOR. WHY WOULD YOU QUIT AND SAVE YUL?!

***

Oh, is this like that.... what was it-that one challenge from Revenge of the Island?

The one where they were dunked and Scott got that sharks tooth up his ass?

"Not at all, these seats are wet."

Because if it IS like that, can I get Fang over here to kill this guy?

(Kai calling Yul a bitchfucker now lives in my head rent free)

"I found this perk that allows two people to switch teams and I want to use it now."

Oh she's gonna use it right away.

"I... want Yul to go to the Orange team."

YUUUUUUUUUUSSSS

SLAY QUEEN

SLAY QUEEN👑

DUMP HIS ASS ON THE LOSING TEAM AND GET RID OF HIS ASS

RIYA IS QUEEN.

DON'T CARE WHAT Y'ALL SAY. THIS IS A QUEEN.

SHOW RESPECT.

"What? And why me?"

"Because I'm sick of you."

😂

YES.

"And now that I don't have to worry about you voting for me I can say it."

AND she's doing this for strategic reasons?

Actually, YEAH, because of the trio, she's the outcast of her team so she needs to pull an advantage like this to save herself from potentially being a target. THAT MAKES SENSE.

STRATEGIC QUEEN AS WELL.

TAKE NOTES ELLIE.

"Screw you! With that attitude, it's no wonder you have never and will never succeed."

Oh fuck off, weren't you cancelled? You piece of shit.

(Hypocrite)

Why is everything mocking Riya for her being herself? I'm picking up on that.

***

"That low budget actress underestimates the damage I could do to her, even on another team."

YOU BREAK HER I BREAK YOU BUCKO

"Not only is the women's alliance weakened, I also have a possible new ally."

Oh and now you want to work with him?!

JAMES, YOU HAVE BAD TASTE.

***

XD

JUST DROWNS THEM XD

So yeah, it IS like that Revenge Of The Island Challenge.

And hopefully I get to see a shark get Yul's ass.

I think his exposed abs will make him seem very appetizing to the sharks.

(NOT ME WISHING DEATH ON A CHARACTER)

***

"Ha! Virgins!"

Oh. Shut. Your. Mouth.

Why is EVERYTHING that comes out of this man's mouth bigotry?

And it's not even said in a funny way. That's all he says.

FUCK YUL.

***

"Who forced their ex to have plastic surgery and then ended the relationship because she did it wrong?"

GOD THAT'S HORRIBLE-

It's Yul. It's gotta be Yul. And he's gonna say "SO WHAT? i DoN't SeE wHaT tHe PrObLeM iS, sHe WaS uGlY, sHe DeSeRvEd iT."

***

"A Latina stealing, why am I not surprised?"

(I couldn't find the GIF I actually used in that reaction)

***

I'm sad there were no sharks to slay Yul.

(Sad day indeed :( )

***

"Welcome to the team, Yul!"

James. Politely. He's not worth it.

"Now what? Are you going to vote me out for having belonged to the Green Team?"

I mean, why not, right?

We know Season 1 attempted that at one point.

JAMES IF YOU ALLY WITH YUL I WILL HATE YOU TOO

"I've noticed that you have a certain dislike towards James. So I propose this: Let's vote for him together and at the next ceremony, you'll return the favor by voting for whoever I want you to."

This is trying to make Yul seem like a brilliant schemer villain, but uh...

THIS IS JAMES' PLAN. NOT HIS.

So, you know, I give credit to James for this. What do you gain from Aiden voting James? That's Yul only person willing to be an ally in his case.

And in James' case, he doesn't KNOW the girls are voting Yul, he's just assuming that with no proof. What if they vote him? You're asking Aiden to vote you, which could be a 3/5.

WHY WOULD JAMES CAUSE HIS OWN ELIMINATION?

Yul gains nothing from this. James gains nothing from this.

What is your plan here?

"How do I know I can trust you?"

"It's not about trust, its about mutual interest."

10/10 persuading there.

"He must be desperate, but Yul deserves to be kicked out."

THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR SEEING THAT.

"I pretended to side with him and will vote for James, just because it will be nice to see James' face when he sees that he has two votes against him."

Okay, you're a dumbass.

"I'm not siding with Yul, BUT I WILL DO WHAT YUL SAYS."

***

GOD I HOPE YUL GOES.

PLEASE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. GET YUL OUT.

'YUL'

I LOVE YOU, WHOEVER DID THAT.

'JAMES'

'MAGGY'

Fuck.

'YUL'

Okay so Yul gets a third vote and majority and he's gone.

WE WIN!!😄

...😦

GODDAMMIT!!!

Maggy, for the love of god, BEAT HIS ASS.

Maggy didn't even do anything this episode, WTF?

"Wait, you two... lied to my face?"

(Again, couldn't find the actual GIF I used in the reaction)

YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T TRUST EITHER OF THEM. YOU SAID THIS YOURSELF YOU DUMBASS.

"Why are you surprised?"

Why does a tie benefit you? You could've instead allied with Aiden to vote off Maggy and lied to say Lake and Maggy were targeting Aiden.

Sure Aiden might not believe it and still vote James and this tie would still happen, BUT AT LEAST THEN YUL HAS THE EXCUSE OF HIM NOT INTENDING TO PUT HIMSELF IN DANGER.

Fuck this guy. FUCK THIS GUY.

But I'll tolerate the stupidity IF HE GOES HOME. I WILL LOVE THAT.

"How about a random, unbiased game of rock paper scissors?"

The way he said scissors?

I mean, SAI-SOURS.

Oh my god PLEASE, PLEASE

PLEASE

GET HIS ASS OUT.

WIN THIS MAGGY. STAND UP FOR YOURSELF.

YOU GOT THIS GIRL. YOU GOT THIS!!!!

🙌

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKK

WHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

FUCK OFF. FUCK OFF.

SHE DIDN'T EVEN DO ANYTHING THIS EPISODE. WHAT THE FUCK.

THIS IS BULLSHIT. I HATE THIS.

(Poor Maggy)

"Go back to the circus, freak!"

So he's been bullying her for nothing the whole time, she NEVER gets a chance to stand up for herself or do anything about it besides get bullied, AND THEN SHE GOES HOME WITH THE BULLY GETTING AWAY WITH IT COMPLETELY?!

That just sucks. I don't like that.

I get it may be realistic in this setting. I don't like that.

I didn't like it in Action either, BUT AT LEAST IN ACTION BOTH CHARACTERS HAD SUBSTANCE AND DUNCAN WASN'T COMPLETELY TERRIBLE.

YUL JUST FUCKING SUCKS. And Maggy has no character besides "Everyone bullies me".

FUCK OFF.

"Wow, calm down. A little more stress and you will also lose your eyebrow hair."

Nine more episodes of this guy, and I might just be burned alive from my own DISTAIN.

Okay that's something I guess.

THANK YOU MAGGY FOR AT LEAST DOING THAT.

Uh... should that count as slaying Yul? Idk cause it's a 'Yes & No'

I'll put her in her own tier.

***

And that was the episode... I'm angry. I just-UGH.

I think Yul ALONE is dragging this down for me.

I definitely do think I'm liking Season 1 better.

I just fucking hate this man. This man is TRASH. HUMAN TRASH. TRASH.

Like I did with Season 1, I'll make a character tier list after the season, and explain in FULL DETAIL why Yul is SO HORRIBLE.

And it's not just because he's SUPPOSED to be unlikeable. Fiore was GREAT, and she was a villain. Grett is unlikeable, and I loved her. You could make some arguments about even Jake being unlikeable because he's a flawed character. But I still loved him.

I also just don't like him as a character and he does not work for me as even a villain. The fact that he has to rely on OTHER PEOPLE to do strategic stuff for him, and rely on LUCK to save himself in the game, is PISS POOR TOTAL DRAMA VILLAIN WRITING. I'M SORRY.

If Fiore, A SIX YEAR OLD, can come up with her own strategies, THEN YUL IS AN EVEN WORSE PIECE OF SHIT BY THIS SHOW'S STANDARDS.

(I must state perfectly clear and blatant so nobody throws accusations of my intent: NONE of that is directed at anyone who worked on the show, nor the VA. Do not go harass anyone or him for anything. All my screaming and rage is ONLY at the FICTIONAL CHARACTER. Not any real life people. Don’t harass them. It’s wrong. Always. It’s wrong.)

And he's our main villain... GOD HELP ME.

He's gonna be here the whole time, I just know it. And I'm gonna hate it.

Maggy? You punched him in the face. I salute you.

But I don't care about you.

***

QUEEN DESERVES TO SLAY. Honestly.

You want to slay Yul and break the rules to get him eliminated? YOU DO IT. DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH THESE BOYS.

So in conclusion... girls good. boys... bleh. Fuck Yul. Thank you. Namaste.

Continued In Part 2 Of Yul Hate >>

[rueclfer]

My friends boyfriend was bitching to me about her, asked me to keep it a secret, so I did (Idfk why), proceeded to announce my crush on this boy to everyone (EVEN THOUGH I WAS KEEPING HIS SECRET FOR HIM), so I told my friend what he said, she made a joke about him venting to me (this was after they broke up), he got pissy, SLAPPED ME, so I poured water on him as payback because I’m not about to touch his menopausal looking middle aged woman ass, and then he poured water all over me back. Like bro wtf, did you get intellectually mollested?? What the hell is wrong with you. He also went around telling everyone I was depressed. Like I’ve known you maybe 14 years and you do that???

Like I kept your secret for you and you do that? I’ve lost all hope in men honestly 🤓. They are all bad people. I haven’t had a single male be good and then stay good. Also told people I was a lesbian, which like when did I ever say anything to make you think that?? 🤨🤨 sorry for the rant I just need to get it out my system.

- 🥀

this is so appalling bc the moment a man put his hands on me in going to prison

[coridallasmultipass]

Vent/endometriosis/on mobile idk/suicide mention

There's seriously something really ironic in the most fucked up ways about being a guy, but being trans, but also having endometriosis that has caused lifelong trauma, but getting a hysterectomy and feeling better, but then the pain comes back, but going on meds that make it better, but then the meds stop working.

There is literally nothing I can do to escape the presence of uterine tissue in my body. I literally have a piece of my uterus framed on my wall to be like, "I survived, mothafucka." And yet, somehow, it keeps coming back like a fucking slasher movie villain. No one wants to see this sequel. Especially not me. I just want to be a normal dude, and not internally bleed from God knows where my body decided to start regrowing a uterus literally just to spite me.

I fucking hate this shit so much. I literally JUST got over the trauma of the last episode that happened just over a year ago. I can't go back to daily panic attacks again, but I do not know how I am supposed to survive when my body pain is at an 11/10. Menstual/cramping is literally the only pain I cannot tolerate. I have broken a toe and gone out to go dancing right after. I've torn the padding in my shoulder and kept lifting weights. I have arthritis and fibromyalgia and tmj problems and chronic headaches. But cramping? I almost kmsed during the last episode, but I was in too much pain to move and find anything to do it with.

How the fuck am I supposed to live with this curse for the rest of my life?? Because guess what, menopause isn't even a way out - people with endo can still have endo problems even after going through menopause. I can say I'll probably be in that camp because the meds I've been on simulate menopause and here I am suffering yet again.

I looked it up whether starting T would do anything and the only answers I got were 'there's no data available' (lmao why does society hate trans people), or 'your body still produces some estrogen while on T, so you could technically still grow endometrial tissue.' Like thanks, that was like my one and only hope that, if I just come out to my family and start T maybe it would get my body to shut up about uteruses, but apparently that's not a solution.

I don't even know what to fucking do right now. I know my doctor isn't gonna have a solution either, because this med was supposed to be a 'fix' and when I come off it later this year, it was supposed to last me a while until the pain comes back, BUT I HAVEN'T EVEN STOPPED TAKING THE MED YET AND ALREADY I'M SUFFERING. I can't fucking do this. Lmao, okay I'm panicking. Stop thinking about dying lmao.

I hate this so much. I'm a guy, and then it's like I'm being punished with woman disease. Can't look up anything about endometriosis without being reminded that 'endometriosis is a condition that affects WOMEN.' Literally the only thing I have serious dysphoria about was having a uterus (and my voice), everything else I could manage or just accept even if I didn't like it. And of course, I'm stuck with a body that's gradually growing me more uteruses. 'Oh, hey, you dropped your uterus, have another. Wait, I hit ctrl+V a thousand times, sorry, bro.'

Brb gonna go die of internal bleeding, I guess?? Where does the blood even go?? I don't have a uterus, and IDK where the fuck the cells are. I swear it feels like they're growing on my pelvis and intestines. I don't even want to know if endometrial cells can grow on bones. That knowledge would devastate me.

I wish I could have enjoyed 2020 more. After I healed from the hysto, it was like, the best time of my life. No more pain during penetration, no fear of period blood, no worries about getting pregnant, no cramps at all, I felt so free.

Now, I feel like I don't even have a life to look forward to. I literally just started turning things around with a new psych med and taking up drawing and writing again. And now I'm gonna constantly be on edge waiting for the next episode to rip its way through my body. I don't want to do this.

[fataliitea]

after reading and seeing a lot of manhwa that involve isekai'd people into fairytales, I thought, what if some dude-bro got isekai'd as the evil queen in snow white? some dude who now has to be a mother nearing menopause?

learning how to both mom and woman at the same time and he's only got vague memories of seeing/hearing the original tale as a kid

[torsaraii]

" I'm so tired and hangry"

"What happen to bro code"

"What week are we on?"

" I think this is what menopause feels like"

"I love old Drake-like what happen "

" you do amazing things"

[zero-rider]

Yang: Jaune, you must bang my sister, i even make her wear whatever you like and say some mistralian words if you like. Please the menopause is kicking in, she adopted 3 cats and one of them is a white cat called Salmon the Grimm queen

???: *from inside the closet* NO I DIDN'T AND I DON'T HAVE MENOPAUSE!!!

Yang: I'm just trying to make the situation more desperate for him to accept!! So, what do you say Jaune?

Jaune: Yes, thanks bro

Yang/???: Really?!!!

Jaune: Yes way fag!

Yang: JAUNE! YOU MUST BANG MY SISTER FOR THE SAKE OF THE ROSE FAMILY!

Jaune: *red* Wha- What!? Why me!?

Yang: Sun is already with blake, Neptune only thinks about wooing one girl after another, Ren has his hands more than full with nora and Weiss' brother is too much of a stuck up! You have to do it Jaune! For the sake of the Rose family!

Jaune: *bummed* Wait, so i was the last option?

Yang: What? Of course not, sis only wants you, but she asked me to say that so it wouldn't be that obvious that she likes you.

Jaune: *bright red* !?!?!?

???: *from inside the closet* YANG!!!

Yang: Oops, guess i shouldn't have said that. 😅
