Well, it’s finally finished.  It was a genuinely satisfying project. I present you Ankh Morpork in the guise of Google Maps.

brb, ugly happy screaming.

WOWWIE THIS IS GREAT 

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

They are targeting adults.

US people:

Create a backup plan for access to HRT. Now.

Prepare in advance, stockpile what you legally (or in minecraft) can, find diy that you trust.

They are going to take your medically required medication from you. This study is expected to start in about six months, and will likely be bullshit that only takes a couple months after that. There is still time.

However, I would predict an almost guarantee of a major federal legal restriction on adult HRT access in the 6mo-1yr from now range. I don't want any of the bullshit I got at the time of the election about "fearmongering". I stand by everything I said then.

here's the updated version of diyhrt.wiki, diyhrt.info. the old one is no longer kept up with. please spread this site instead. also, check out r/TransDIY and r/estrogel on reddit for info on homebrewing hormones.

Plastic Chair in Wood by Maarten Baas (2008)

I'm obsessed with this chair. The artist takes a flimsy hunk of injection-molded plastic that's been cost-cut to hell and back, and insists that we look at it with fresh eyes and understand its beauty. And they went about it in the most labor-intensive way I can think of.

Absolutely nothing about this design is convenient to execute in wood. Every piece is curved, most have compound curves. This is artisan craftsmanship: it's inherently slow, manual, and skilled. Notice, also, that most features of this chair must be thicker and heavier than on the plastic chairs being imitated. Injection-molded chairs can be produced in this shape in a matter of minutes with far less material at very low cost.

If these flowing, organic curves are so beautiful in polished wood, perhaps they are also beautiful in the mass-produced chairs that are far more accessible. Perhaps we should remember to admire designs that succeed enough to become ubiquitous. I don't know about you, but I'll never see injection-molded chairs the same way again.

specters of yue qingyuan - even carved in stone, the guilt shadowing his visage would surely be unmistakable
