@ret maybe grool, glop, muck, sludge, swill, guano, midden, or waste of everyones time would have been better?
@sayyid_qishta there are often rare plant laws by state in the usa and federally in other countries that carry fines or jail time for moving, destroying or even touching thoae plants without the land owners express consent. So do with that info what you will.
@minneyar yeah as much as the internet has connected things people dont know how to be a person without it now.
I don't "assert dominance" but have been known to assume mating postures to trigger courtship. Also totally uninterested in road kill -- if it can't lay eggs, don't want it.

On the topic of diy hrt, & who’s often left out of the conversation
Hi hi. This pride month, can there be actual convos about how fucked it is that people interested in testosterone replacement therapy, & other androgens, can’t obtain it without a prescription unless they wanna go to jail for a minimum of 4 years?
I know it’s bleak & grim. But it’s very important to discuss, imo, if we want actual trans rights. T should be descheduled. We should be saying this loudly, even if you personally don’t want it or have nothing to do with it. & this should be kept in mind when saying “just do diy hrt.” To be able to do such without majorly risking your entire livelihood is a privilege. A major one. Please try to think abt those who can’t risk it.
& in the meantime, TALK ABOUT IT!!! Inform people that T is a controlled substance, bc a shocking amount of folks don’t know this. Make a slogan, openly voice that ur in favor of people having bodily autonomy including when it comes to using anabolic steroids, tell someone you know who’s on a 5 year long waitlist with an endocrinologist just to avoid a prison sentence that u love them & wish the world was better to them.
( anyone arguing abt how risky other forms of hrt are to diy please fuck off. I’m well aware of this, & you’re not the center of this conversation. transmasc & intersex people get talked over & ignored entirely in far too many conversations for me to let my replies be another one of those instances. )
( fuck it, tags for visibility, this is an issue I care deeply abt. #diyhrt #hrt #trans #transmasc )
