I just got off the phone with a client who began by asking what he needs to do if he closes his business for a couple of months. As we talked he disclosed that he's been having treatment for prostate cancer. Because of his age, stage of cancer and other variables that are considered for his treatment, the doc is using medicine to suppress his testosterone level... apparently, so much that it's undetectable. And because the human body requires at least one dominant sex hormone or other serious issues will occur, he will require estrogen therapy.

This is the same exact treatment that transwomen go through for gender dysphoria. We suppress our testosterone and increase our estrogen. The difference is our mental, emotional, physical (and for those who have a spiritual inclination) our spiritual well being is drastically improved. For my client this is NOT happening.
He described strong feelings of mental and emotional distress because of what the medicine is doing to his body to treat the cancer. He said his body is "becoming like a woman's."

He has developed gender dysphoria. In not so many words he said it. He said "I understand much better now what transgender people must experience because I don't feel right in my body." He continued by saying "I'm alive but at what cost."

I wish EVERY transphobe would go through this to find this revelation.

Picard responsibility tip: Don't leave known, wide-scale problems behind for the next generation to solve.

“Why do you still wear a mask in 2025?”

At work I was just given a SQL query I made a few days before my one bout with covid in 2022. I have no recollection of it.

Everything I write I sort of remember whether vaguely or actively.

If I close my eyes long enough I can remember the mIRC scripts I wrote back when I was 13 y/o.

Not this one.

I can tell it’s my style. It’s the variables I use. And yet I do not remember making it. At all.

Also: I don't think I've ever slept 21 hours before. With a few breaks on and off, but it was about 21 hours of recovery sleep.

12:00, Jenn: "I should try some more solid food."
12:01, Stomach: "Okay, that's enough."

7AM: Oh, I'm feeling a lot better and should try eating something light, like Chicken Soup.

8AM: Nope. Not better yet.

So, Day 1 and 2 of my new job have been postponed due to stomach virus/ food poisoning .

I've been in bed all day.

Tomorrow, May 5th, I will be entering new realms in my life that I've never been in before. I've dipped my toes in, sure, but tomorrow I dive into the deep end of that pool.

It's going to be exiciting. :)

Not sure about these latest changes to the original movie....

Some things, once seen, cannot go unseen.

I saw Space Truckers today.

"The Vatican?" "The Vati-CAN'T!"

That was the worst cinnamon roll I've ever had, and I judge bakeries on their cinnamon rolls.
