  • I mean... they COULD just use the 2022/2023 study that the Louisiana department of health was forced to do... Mainly , the reasoning behind it was to find incidence of under 18 surgeries... of which Louisiana found none... but had "regret" and "social re-transition" as metrics they studied. One COULD argue that the degree of social or societal pressure could vary from state to state which could inform "regret" models.

    https://ldh.la.gov/assets/docs/LegisReports/HR158_2022RS_LDHReport.pdf

    Subsection 11.3 - Regret After Surgery: "Individuals 18 and under constituted 1,360 (20.0%) of the cohort. Regret after gonadectomy (only eligible to individuals over 18 and after one and a half years of CSHs) was rare (0.6% in AMAB, 0.3% in AFAB). All individuals who later expressed regret started CSHs after the age of 25."

    "In a cohort of 209 youth (median age 16) post-mastectomy for GD, two later reported regret (0.95%), and none underwent reversal. In a cohort of 136 AFAB in the U.S., comparing post-mastectomy to pre- surgical patients, all 68 individuals undergoing mastectomy reported it was a good decision, and nearly all (67 of the 68) denied any regret about the procedure."

    Subsection 11.4—Retransitions in Socially Transitioned Children "An ongoing cohort study in the U.S. enrolled socially transitioned children at ages 3 to 12, notably without a requirement for formal GD diagnosis but based on self-reported transgender or gender-diverse identity. At an average of five years since their social transition, 7.3% (23 of 317) reported they re-transitioned their gender identity. In the 23 individuals, the majority reported being cisgender (eight) or nonbinary (11). The remainder (four individuals) transitioned to cisgender, then back to transgender within the five years. Just under a third of the cohort initiated puberty suppression (29%) or hormone treatment (30.9%), with more than 95% of each group continuing to report transgender identities. This cohort will continue to be followed through adolescence and adulthood."

  • The film companies, including Killing Link Distribution and movant Voltage Holdings, disagreed with the lower court decisions. They appealed to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, requesting a reversal.

    Welp. Sounds like part of hollywood never heard of the Streisand Effect.

  • Your... Your character is built around the Ballmer peak???? That. Is. Brilliant.

    Mind if i use this for an NPC quest hook in my current campaign? My players like to have their characters drink heavily and break stuff. It would be an amazing little mini game of "feed the Nuke alcohol, but not too much and not too little or they will explode and take everyone with them". Except... Not like a bomb nuke... More like a trauma-fueled-bull-in-a-porcelain-shop type of thing.

    Any further details you are willing to share about your character and their motications, I would be incredibly grateful.

  • Yeah, i find this to be awesome, because i can now leverage the other player's back stories into WHY they lost their memory. Or use it as an inflection point to shove the players a bit.

  • On the other side of this, you have company's that are in tangential fields looking to grab up a piece of that pie. Electricians, low voltage companies, fucking furniture companies (oh, we totally do audiovisual, that's similar enough), the C-suite is trying to force their way into this new golden goose and expecting their staff to be able to handle this without training, time, or real hands on experience. And, no, a 2 day workshop from a manufacturer isn't really "training", at least not the only training needed...
