  • I was wondering so I found a datasheet for (veterinary) progesterone. estimated LD50 of 2000mg/kg. If you weighed 75 kg (shot in the dark at some kind of “standard” body weight) you’ll need to consume 150 grams of pure progesterone to reach the LD50.

    I don’t do injections but if you took my daily dose (100 mg) and consumed a year supply at once that would only be 35.5 grams, well below the LD50. Probably not great for you but you’ll probably survive.

    Estradiol has has the same oral LD50 but the injected LD50 is 300mg/kg. Assuming same body weight and an injection of 0.5 ml of 20mg/ml solution a week thats puts the LD50 at 22.5 grams and a dose of .52 grams.

    I think it’s fairly survivable but probably not great for you.







  • Most stuff on here doesn’t have to be content warned. The warning is for assuming the gender of the viewer not for the target audience for the meme. For example, a meme saying “you are a girl” needs a CW while a comic about a girl saying how much she loves being a girl doesn’t. The posts needing those warnings are fairly rare.

    I don’t think I’ve seen anything that would need the other CW posted here to begin with.

    I’m also not a very active moderator. I’m only checking here about once a day and I’m usually more concerned with comments since that has historically been where the issues have been. This community doesn’t have a lot of activity and has largely been supplanted by others on this server.






  • From description of the Great Old One pact:

    The Great Old One might be unaware of your existence or entirely indifferent to you, but the secrets you have learned allow you to draw your magic from it

    Patrons can have whatever motivation or lack of motivation the DM wants. I personally like there being some kind of RPing effect. Maybe some task you have to complete, punishment for acting against your patron, slowly eroding sanity. But none of that is necessary.


















  • It’s very much not okay. In general, imposing labels on people is a bad thing. Doesn’t matter how much better someone thinks they know, people get to explore their identities in their own way and at their own pace.

    When I see someone imposing the egg or trans label I generally point them to the egg prime directive here.

    When someone is just told they are trans, that opens ground for denial; it activates defense mechanisms built by internalized transphobia, and it has a high probability of pushing them further into the closet, if not making them outright transphobic. Even when it doesn’t, it leaves ground for their own subconscious to reject their dysphoria, claiming that they were just manipulated or deceived. The much more effective strategy is to talk about your own experiences with dysphoria so that they see the common grounds and come to their own conclusion about their gender. The code doesn’t forbid helping them to explore their gender; it forbids assigning a gender to them. Or, to put it more succinctly, you cannot be told what the Matrix is; you can only be shown.

    As to why some people don’t follow that. Either they don’t know better, in which case educating them should fix it, or they are simply [epithet of your choice here]. Any community of sufficient size will have bad actors in it.
