  • This post and comment reminds me of something I’ve been wondering about and maybe can get an answer on from someone here.

    I notice more tenderness in my breasts when I take oestradiol sublingually all at once rather than spread out over the day. Usually at night and tenderness comes the following evening. I’ve been taking it to mean that this regimen is better for my breast growth. I figure because it more naturally mimics the fluctuating levels cis women have iirc.

    I also notice that at larger dosages help, but with too large dosages this effect goes away. I know that more does not always mean better when it comes to pharmaceuticals, and have wondered if perhaps slightly less than adult/maximal oestrogen levels (but not low or underdosed) with completely suppressed T mimics puberty closer and is more conductive to breast growth?

    The tenderness hits even harder for a while if I switch to spread-out dosing for a while and then go back to all-at-once.

    I may be wrong in every one of those assumptions, but the point of me asking is to figure that out. Does anyone know more?

    1. Does this tenderness actually indicate breast growth and am I right to try to maximize it?
    2. I have heard progesterone finishes off the last stages breast development, which is why I’ve been putting it off and letting them grow as much as possible. Is this correct? Is it possible to wait too long?
    3. Are there any studies on, or reliable methods for maximizing breast growth during transition?

    Any help appreciated. Thanks

    My mom once got told by a psychic that she’d have a boy and a girl. But then they corrected themself in confusion that she’d have another girl sometime later, and that something was different/special about this correction that they couldn’t fully make out.

    Turned out to be very true…

    Not that I believe in that stuff but it’s a neat little anecdote this reminded me of.


  • Technically true yeah. But I frequented 4chan in the old days. It is not the same website by a long shot. Yes, it has always sucked, but now it’s even worse somehow.

    Like most other social media, I’d bet good money that there are astroturfing campaigns running trying to radicalize the those who browse there, especially since it’s easier to introduce divisive messaging as edgy humor.

    Probably a higher success rate than most other social media considering the shit you see on /pol/ and likelihood of harboring incels and other ideologically susceptible users.





  • Thank you for the info! I wasn’t aware of the X11 colors.

    The original author only gives this information about their setup:

    bar - custom + fork of dmenu (not shown)

    gtk theme - custom version of cde theme

    icons - just a couple grabbed from various themes

    term - urxvt and a generic vte term

    I imagine this is not Motif since it’s a GTK theme? Not very familiar with GUI stuff.

    Maybe it’s FVWM? It is a derivative of TWM.

    Perhaps NsCDE?

    NsCDE and other CDE lookalikes seem to have a thicker horizontal bar in the upper left decoration than this and the original CDE, but perhaps that is one of the customizations the author mentions.

    Also, the background seems to be from Elementary OS beta. Specifically, blueprint hue shifted to match purpleprint, based on the cropping and vignette.
