Things I am happy about this week:
Now to the less happy things (CW: discussion of Aaron Bushnell, medical uncertainty, and firearms)
I finally watched the uncensored video of Aaron Bushnell's self immolation, and it really hammered home the point that this country is hurtling towards destabilization at breakneck speed, and this has me worried about a couple of things:
I know everything here, except maybe (2), is at least manageable and doable. But combined with the fact I have negative spoons after working 40hrs a week (thanks, AuDHD), it is gonna take some major effort on my part, which just plain sucks.
Anyways yay for hair and queer punk/ska and heels, at least.
#2 can also be done to an extent https://hexbear.net/post/1419643
That's my plan for the long run.
This made me go down a rabbit hole researching how long a vial of lab-made estradiol valerate can be used, and it looks like the 28 day figure that gets thrown around is total bullshit for home use โ as long as it's stored in a safe, cool, stable area, a vial should last more than long enough to use the whole thing. This research has actually reduced my anxiety about losing access to estrogen during a societal upheaval significantly, because I'll be able to use my prescription vials to backfill 3-4 vials for every one I use. Thank you so much for sending me down this research path!
Oh yeah, I've used the same vial for most of a year. It'll stay good.
I get 3 bottles and generally only use most of 1 by the time my prescription is due to be refilled. So I'm hoarding like a greedy hog
Oh hell yes, this looks useful! I'm a bit squeamish about making my own injectables but that's great info to have if I ever need it, thanks a ton.
It's a scary idea, but I'm already DIYing and being able to control the process is actually more reassuring.
I'd rather get premade vials for DIY, although I know it's more expensive.
