Wow, the measles are going to absolutely ruin America, and then spread to the world. One of my family members was ‘immune’ to the vaccine for it, and a doctor took my aunt aside and told her that basically any large crowd was a danger to my cousin. IE. “Go to the fair and there’s a chance he catches it.” Luckily he was able to finally reach the % required that from the vaccine but I think he was 16 before that happened.

So many children are going to die. I wonder if people who didn’t vote in the US are starting to realise what they’ve done.

Really? Can you share them? I saw the post on lemmy complaining about wanting male/female options, but there’s also this article with gems such as below.

Even in the comments of that article though, is “DEI detected = Purchase rejected”.

So the comments are out there, probably on reddit too, but they are there.

It’s weird, because I took it to mean that the people she’s talking to are going to be denied insurance in some way next.

I mean we can assume, and it’s fairly likely, that it was a reference to the assassination, but American court is fucked if this is enough.

I assume a menorah of dildos is out.

Saying person x should be shot, no jury would convict you is not ok.

Vladimir Putin should be shot, no jury will convict you.

I just wanted to say your avatar just sent me back a quarter century; I was not expecting that XD

I honestly hadn’t considered it until people started asking if I had planned to.

Thank you for the link though, I guess I have a lot to consider here.

Thank you, I really did not expect hair thinning to cause me to feel like I’m going to have a heart attack, yet here we are.

I see that doctor for a consultation on Dec. 17th, so if you’d like I can respond to this comment again after I see him. The issue for both microneedling (with stemcells, apparently?) and hair transplant is price. The microneedling is apparently much cheaper, but it’s 1000 per session, which is why I’m meeting him. I want to know the chances it actually works before I even consider 1000 on a single session.

Thanks again though, I appreciate your help <3

I am considering the pill form, am worried about the side effects. The list of drugs I’ve had negative side effects to is longer than the one of drugs I haven’t. :( But we can still try! Thank you <3 and I’m sorry for your loss as well. People are shockingly callous in person about this issue.

Oh, wow, so you’re already doing a large part of what I’ve been looking at, thank you so much for your experience and insight here :)

I am in Canada so I can likely get at least some of it through my MSP (‘free healthcare’), but I can’t do the topical medications as they are lethal to cats, and I’d literally rather die than hurt my cat.

I am not sure I can do dermarolling because I have eczema, and my skin tends to immediately freak out if I do anything like that. I do appreciate it though and will look more into it.

Have you considered microneedling? I saw a dermatologist who suggested I was a good candidate for it, but then he handed me his card where he does microneedling, which felt rather ‘convenient’.

Thanks again, I really do appreciate your response :)

Thank you for the response :)

My hair stylist actually mentioned HRT as a method haha so you aren’t the first. I’m honestly on the fence about it, which is surprising because I didn’t expect that from myself. I’m fine with most of my body, just not my hair haha. I will ask my doctor, thank you :)

I’ve heard from friends of mine that given how warm I tend to run that a wig would be tough, but yes, I am considering it. It would be a holding action, so to speak, definitely.

I understand other people could/might be fine if I am bald, but it’s more that I am losing a rather large focus of my femininity, and have to work around that. I mean that’s getting older, this is just more… extreme. I wish I had just gone entirely gray early, that I can work with.

I do appreciate it, thank you.

Thanks for your response :)

My doctor and I discussed finasteride/minoxidil and one of the issues is that I have had (extremely) poor responses to a whole bunch of medications. The worry is that I will get one of the more severe ones given my past experience, sadly :(

Thanks for your response though, I’ll try to get another doctor appointment and discuss those drugs as soon as I can.
