the fact that i know the exact title of a YouTube video & its author & searching never yields the video in question or even the creator page is so fucked. The fact that the results are so unrelated to my query that it feels like mockery makes me want to do something i would be banned for describing

Some people may be confused by the recurring conflict between the transgender community and Bluesky moderation staff. So here's a quick explainer: Every single decision, since day one, that the Bluesky staff ever made has been wrong

"Your brains stop developing at age 25" was a press misrepresentation of a study. They wanted to see if brains continued to develop after adolescence, so the study was capped at age 25.
A later study with a wider subject pool showed that brains are ALWAYS developing our whole lives.

this is why it's my pet peeve fake science fact. It's absolute bs! nothing happens to brains at age 25, they do not "fully mature". you will notice that many societies have an age of majority or coming-of-age or whatever and none of them have ever chosen mid-20s.
Many people seem to be confused on this point.
The GOP is passing/intro'ing bills banning GAC up to & including the age of 25 on the theory that brains don't fully mature til then.
In public they call them bans on "minor" care.
It's a deliberate GOP strategy to make themselves seem less radical.

soft launching asking for things and taking up space to maybe get some being alive in before my next major trauma arrives and kicks me back like 3 steps past my previous lowest point

there's a lot of art i like thats in less laborious, more sustainable styles that also closely resemble how i naturally draw if im not pushing myself to the brink but i struggle to tolerate myself or evidence thereof so its just a broadly unfortunate situation for me
