I know a guy who took T for gains at one point in his life. He says it felt great at the time, he had more energy and his gains were amazing but now he doesn't naturally produce enough testosterone of his own and it's fucking his joints up in old age. His bone density is closer to that of a woman in his age group and one of his hands is essentially disintegrating.

His words, not mine.

Same. People always assume I'm a smaller clothing size than I actually am because of this. A (new, Karen) colleague recently asked if I'm on Ozempic because of my face. Like no it's not Ozempic face, it's my face.

I'm afraid not. You can have Google Wallet installed but you can't have bank cards on it on GrapheneOS.

I loved it too until I forgot my wallet one day. It's the one thing I had to go back to stock Android for because I forget everything but my phone constantly.

Same. What a letdown.

He's old. Can't be much longer now.

The only correct answer.

Also slavery was typically ~~nowhere near as~~ a different sort of brutal in that era. Still brutal and terrible, but not "working people to death and then shipping in more people to work to death" brutal.

Edit: changed my wording because slavery has always been fucking horrible, e.g. eunuchs

Speaking of Alvin, for anyone who didn't know, he's recovered his own channel and has recently uploaded!

And check your local inheritance laws. Some places will take pre-death gifts into account depending on how long the time between gift and death is. The UK, as an example, looks at gifts made up to 7 years before a person's death. It's messed up.

Asexuality isn't a gender. We’re just not attracted to people of any gender. Our gender identity is separate.
