2024.11.25 18:51 agp422 Consult as cis person - advice
Hi all - I had a consultation for either a radical reduction or maybe top surgery last week and it didn't go quite as I hoped/I think by emphasizing that I am cis slash don't ID as trans or nonbinary, she understandably focused more on the radical reduction option. I scheduled a follow-up to discuss top surgery but I want to figure out how best to backtrack/rephrase things so it's clear that I DO have a gender dysphoria and top surgery is not something I'm only weighing after our first appointment.
Curious is folks have suggestions for how to phrase things so she feels confident and comfortable with moving forward with top surgery for me. Particularly curious if any cis or non-binary folks who have had top surgery have guidance on what they said in their consult?

 | I know it’s a long shot but my nephews birthday is today. Any chance anybody has messed with these China controllers? Can not for the life of me find the power and signal on the controller for the throttle. I can go power wire on the throttle straight into the battery, throttle lights up with bars but nothing from the motor. We swapped controllers cause after installing the old vevor controller it ran fine then we tidy up the wires and now we can get the motor to move at all.

2024.11.25 18:51 SkylerSpark Is it possible to move a hetzner cloud instance to a more viable location?
When I setup my server, I placed it in helsinki, which wasn't my best choice
The Ashburn VA server is the best option as far as distance to me. I'd love to move my instance to it
Unlike other platforms I've used, however, it appears to not have any option for moving it.
Anyone have any ideas? Should I contact hetzner support directly? Is there an option to move it that I'm just not seeing

2024.11.25 18:51 Mediocre-Smile5908 HOME AGAIN, HOME AGAIN JIGGETY JIG
 | https://preview.redd.it/uju4uepbd33e1.png?width=469&format=png&auto=webp&s=002f86a8cde59275d0027fad7ecf9df2e917d3b8 After all the glitz, glamour and excitement of Blackpool last week our Magnificent Seven are back on familiar ground and a return to the Elstree Studios. While Elstree might not look as impressive as Blackpool Tower, it has quite the illustrious history. Apart from some of our teatime telly favourites and adverts, it hosted Queen while they filmed Bohemian Rhapsody AND George Lucas used the studios for some little-known film series called Star Wars. I remember going to see A New Hope at the cinema when it first came out. My nana was so mesmerised by all the effects she sat through the entire film, mouth open, with a Fry’s Cream Bar balanced on her outstretched palm. Then dad and I had pretend light sabre fights on the way home. Or Life Savers as YMOTH called them, with the villain being Dark Vader – which makes sense, I suppose. https://preview.redd.it/ymb3eoegd33e1.png?width=415&format=png&auto=webp&s=43d97468d81ef75c8059803b9a0679da09938915 Hey, Darth. Are We The Baddies? Not only this lot have graced the studios. I’ve been there, you know. I have! I filmed my episode of The Chase there. Don’t ask how I did. Do you think I’d be writing this if I was minted courtesy of The Beast and his buddies? Yeah, so there you go. As they say, I had a lovely time, some BBC sandwiches and met Bradley Walsh who was thoroughly nice and made us all feel at ease. Would have preferred the dosh, but we can’t have everything, can we? Even after being out of the house for 16 hours because they were too tight to put us up in a hotel. And there being nowhere to get a drink at the station on the way home. But enough grumbles (as she polishes her Pointless Trophy), we’re here to talk about Strictly 2024 and all that it holds. Only a few more weeks until we crown our Glitterball winners – so who will be out of the running by Monday? This week the couples have the added challenge of the Samba-athon, where every couple will take to the floor at the same time, Championship style, in an effort to impress the Judges with their moves. No specifically choreographed routines this time – they’re going to be going all out to stand out – in a good way of course. But more of this later! Pete and Jowita opened the show with their Tango to 'Easy Lover' by Philip Bailey and Phil Collins. Again, not the first choice of Tango music for me. I annoy HOTH by calling dances I’d do to songs on the radio and have decided I’d do mine to Blue Monday by New Order, if I was going to go ‘modern’. Thankfully dressed in a more sombre, family-friendly manner this week, Pete had a good go at this. His character was good, lending to the moody tone of the dance and he’s put a lot of work into getting his frame and top line under control. He had good intent and attack but needed softer knees to get the proper drive through the floor. His feet were fairly decent, there was no errant gapping and his transitions between moves was better. Overall, it was a pretty decent outing. Shirley was very pleased to see Pete’s ballroom back (don’t!) and 29 out of 40 scored. https://preview.redd.it/5q4urohld33e1.png?width=467&format=png&auto=webp&s=7223ed29581be1b88ea83a5ba004f019d1adcadd Aha! You Have Been Nicking My Deodorant, Jowita! Sarah and Vito were up next with their Rumba to 'Chains' by Tina Arena. I was never sure if that was a person or place. This was pretty fast for a Rumba but somehow managed to retain the sensuality and seductive tone of the dance. This was technically very difficult – Shirley said the choreography belonged in a major championship – and Sarah handled it beautifully. Her shaping was lovely and the transitions between several types of Rumba were near seamless. She’s listened to Shirley and worked on closing her feet, too. Her lines and shaping were very good, she pushed through her feet to get the requisite leg position changes, and she showed off an array of moves from pivots to promenades and everything in between, including Vito shaking her all over t’shop like a Jack Russell with a rag doll. Now, this is where I got miffed. Craig called it ‘too technical’ – and after his ‘too perfect’ jibe last week, I’m wondering what his problem is. He said the dance lacked chemistry and connection but, come on, short of them stripping and doing rudies in the middle, there was enough chemistry to open a chain of Boots. Motsi semi-agreed with him saying she wanted more ‘ooziness’. Sorry, you two, I’ll listen to the multiple-Rumba World Championship winner and Head Judge, if you don’t mind. With two eights that should definitely have been at least nines from the picky pair 36 out of 40 was awarded. Harrumph. https://preview.redd.it/5yb9yd9sd33e1.png?width=262&format=png&auto=webp&s=8f868b78da258c270f94f9ab6665cc154cbbec9f No, Sarah, I Definitely Can’t Smell The Garlic Tuna You Had For Lunch JB and Lauren followed with their Charleston to 'Yes Sir! That's My Baby' by Firehouse Five Plus Two. This is a classic piece of music for a Charleston and captures the proper vibe of the dance from where it originated. After running through Shirley’s 7 Ps (again, no resemblance to the one I know, which has more swearing) JB and Lauren launched into their madcap, fun-filled routine. This was fast, frenetic and fearless, especially in the lifts where JB practically chucked Lauren over his head from front to back. There was all the usual Charleston moves we love to see in there – groove walks, pendulum kicks, pivots, birdy flaps, ankle taps and reverse twists. JB had tons of energy and character, performing with style and swagger, great timing and musicality. He’d worked hard on nailing the swivel too, pleasing Craig no end. Now, it may have just been me, but I’m sure he went on the wrong foot early on in the dance but recovered well. I could also have done with some more head shakes / bobbing, but that’s a personal preference. This exhausting turn got a whopping 39 out of 40. https://preview.redd.it/13uqxytwd33e1.png?width=467&format=png&auto=webp&s=d114415058ce590f34d9ca23486b8fd7c7740ee4 Yes, Sir, That’s My JB! Fourth to the floor were Jamie and Michelle showing off their Foxtrot to 'Stand By Me' by Ben E. King. Now, I’m not sure if Jamie’s EastEnders filming schedule hampered rehearsals, but this left me feeling a bit … flat. I mean, Jamie danced well enough – his lines were nicely finished, he moved well across the floor and his feet were fairly good, including a nicely done fleckerl. He nailed the light, romantic and sweet nature of the routine, there was a lovely connection with Michelle and there was good flow. But it was all a bit … boring. There was a lot of repeated moves – spin Michelle, extend arm. Spin Michelle, extend other arm. It seemed to lack content, light and shade. Jamie’s frame in and out of hold was all over the place and his right arm was floppy and loose. His head was tilted back and off centre, too, spoiling the look of the pair in hold a little bit. Craig said it lacked swing and sway, and I horrified myself by agreeing with him. Not Jamie’s best outing and the couple scored 32 out of 40 thanks to a wild overmarking of nine from Anton, who had just savaged Jamie’s frame, hold and right arm. https://preview.redd.it/bzdkq1g0e33e1.png?width=467&format=png&auto=webp&s=92d421668ae6bb8ea6a131f4d4016d25f555c168 The Chippy’s This Way Michelle. No, That Way Jamie! Chris and Dianne ramped things back up again with their powerful Paso Doble to Manuel Panella's 'El Gato Montes' – which translates to The Wild Cat in English not, as I thought, My Cat Monty. Dianne’s parents had flown in from Australia to see Dianne dance in the flesh for the first time in seven years, so Chris finally got to meet the Buswells. https://preview.redd.it/535rab46e33e1.png?width=481&format=png&auto=webp&s=8cb57cf11c76acc77d745045d244ad7d598f018f I Said The Buswells, Not The Boswells! Honestly, You Can’t Get The Staff. Nary a dry eye before, during and after this from Dianne’s folks, and who can blame them? She’s an absolute miracle-worker. She doesn’t shy away from the technical and difficult moves for Chris and definitely doesn’t look for gimmicks and gags – or dance around him doing all the steps while he wiggles a bit. Oh, no. She makes Chris graft with technically difficult steps, moves and transitions. I have no idea how the pair train when Chris doesn’t know what a Paso looks like and can’t see Dianne if she tried to demonstrate a move, but they bloody well work hard. Chris had loads of intent, drive and attack through the routine, bringing good mean and moody character to his matador. He had a good go at the classic Paso shaping and did a very nice knee slide, into powerful knee walks. It lacked a little smoothness in the transitions and his legs weren’t straight enough at times, especially in the ronde. But with Banderilla moves – rarely seen in Strictly – la passes and appels there was a lot to like. A really rather good. 33 out of 40 in total. https://preview.redd.it/u1b1h98de33e1.png?width=467&format=png&auto=webp&s=6233173a17fd5e102d5e00e71c2c9278a6fd9f47 Olé Cow Dianne! I Can’t Do A Tipple Over In These Pants! If you’re impressed by Chris – as I am sure you are – then I suggest, nay compel you to check out Shaun Hayward. He is HOTH’s friend who has the same condition as Chris and who is also a champion ballroom dancer. He’s been on a few TV & radio interviews with his guide dog Kev since Chris was announced as a Strictly contestant. His guest spots and social media pages are fab: Shaun Hayward videos Shaun Hayward videos Shaun Hayward Strictly Review Kevin Pupdate Video And these are just the tip of the iceberg – look out for his Insta & Facebook pages to learn more and watch Shaun’s brilliant videos. You won’t be disappointed. Montell and Johannes brought back the ballroom with a Quickstep to Ella Fitzgerald's 'Get Happy'. Again, a classic piece of music for this dance which really shows it off well. Apparently, Montell’s personal best for the 100 metres is 11.05 seconds, which is only marginally slower than me when they announce the buffet is open. Well, Montell’s speed was needed for this routine as she and JoJo hurtled around the floor. She was classy, sassy and confident, with fleet feet in a dance that was airy, free and light. There was Hollywood glitz and pizzazz, chunks of Charleston and glimmers of gospel in this joyous and uplifting routine. Montell had improved her posture and connection with Johannes both in and out of hold and there was so much height on the leaps she could easily compete in the Olympic hurdles. It wasn’t perfect – there were still some issues with her frame and head placement, overstretching her neckline in places, leading Craig to comment she looked like she was in the film Death Becomes Her. Still, a very healthy 37 out of 40 on the scoreboard. https://preview.redd.it/sgtm7g8je33e1.png?width=476&format=png&auto=webp&s=7ce26a6a33f5b17ca4941b8f3f0324548ef8d0e6 https://preview.redd.it/gt1zjjwje33e1.png?width=453&format=png&auto=webp&s=75afd94a5ee2355d56d35b71c0cfcdf17d9299bd You’ve Got Some Neck With That Comment Craig! Our final performance of the night – well, our last one before the Samba-athon was from Tasha and Aljaž’s American Smooth to Lewis Capaldi's Someone You Loved, which Aljaž dedicated to his daughter with wife Janette Manrara-skirt. Now, I don’t know what Craig was saying to Motsi while Tess was cueing the pair up but it must have been naughty as she starting giggling like mad. It definitely wasn’t about this number. This was a simply beautiful, elegant, polished and accomplished routine, brilliantly executed. Tasha was graceful, stylish and lyrical as she glided across the floor with Aljaž with exquisite timing balance and musicality. She was great in and out of hold, moving smoothly from one step to another, easing around the ballroom like she was floating on air. The lifts didn’t remotely faze her, not even the huge spinning one that must have left her dizzy as all heck. I mean, I felt dizzy just watching her. The Judges were equally impressed – Craig joking ‘Now it’s time for the truth, darling. Your right little finger was sticking up’ before popping his 10-paddle cherry, meaning the series’ first FULL HOUSE FORTY was scored. https://preview.redd.it/b0subynxe33e1.png?width=453&format=png&auto=webp&s=8d84f4ce349315b4c9c6b7938e4586a793d1b2fc My Bloody Toe Again, Aljaž! Our first round of dances were done and we were onto the Samba-athon and the leaderboard looked like this: · Tasha and Aljaž – 40 · JB and Lauren – 39 · Montell and Johannes – 37 · Sarah and Vito – 36 · Chris and Dianne – 33 · Jamie and Michelle - 32 · Pete and Jowita – 29 Of course, all this could change after the Samba-athon. We had some filler while Tasha and Aljaž got changed – bit hard to do a Samba in that frock – so Shirley went through the rules. All seven couples would be dancing at once, moving anti-clockwise around the floor, avoiding crashing into each other or getting in each other’s way. The aim was for the competitors to catch the Judges’ eye – in a good way – by going large, making big moves, with as many Samba steps and moves as they could cram in. The Panel would be watching carefully, agreeing to eliminate one couple at a time until only two were left waiting for the winner to be announced. One point would be awarded to the first couple out, two for the next and so on, up to a maximum of seven for the winners. Thankfully, there was no repeat of the 2018 scoring fiasco and, with me calling it exactly the same as Craig and Co, the Samba-athon scores were: Ø Chris and Dianne – 1 Ø Jamie and Michelle – 2 Ø Pete and Jowita – 3 Ø Sarah and Vito – 4 Ø Montell and Johannes – 5 Ø Tasha and Aljaž – 6 Ø JB and Lauren – 7 Our really, real final scores of the night then, were: 1. Tasha and Aljaž – 46 2. JB and Lauren – 46 3. Montell and Johannes – 42 4. Sarah and Vito - 40 5. Chris and Dianne – 34 6. Jamie and Michelle – 34 7. Pete and Jowita – 32 Not the world’s most massive shakeup, granted – well, in fact no shakeup at all, since everyone was in the same place as before, more or less. Just JB moving to ‘joint leader’ from second place. Would that change the voting though? A wet, windy, miserable, muggy Sunday dragged itself over the horizon. HOTH and I hurkle-durkled with some potato cakes and Professor Brian Cox on the tellybox talking about all things space. It seems most of our planetary neighbours have atmospheres that smell like poo or wee. So, pretty much any Wetherspoons at kicking Back in the studio our seven couples huddled under the red light while we got the recap of the stuff they’d just done. This time they really did have to run back and get changed into their dancing outfits, which makes a change. What a palaver. And imagine the poor You know the routine now – Judges’ Huddle, backstage VTs of happy contestants and gritted-teeth congratulations. We use this time to put the loaded potato skins & pizza in the oven. If my Slimming World consultant is reading, this is the time we prepare a large lean ham salad. Ahem. Time for the first couple in calamity to be announced. Prof Brian Cox had told us in the morning that if you went in a near-light speed craft to the Andromeda Galaxy it would take just about one minute, but four million years on earth will have passed by the time you got back. Yeah, well, that happened before Tess told it was going to be … JAMIE AND MICHELLE Ooh, now there’s a turnup for the books! I wasn’t expecting that at all, as Jamie has a solid fanbase both from EastEnders and Strictly viewers. Although he was in the bottom two this time round. He seemed fine about it, telling Tess he was glad as he’d got to experience every part of the show – from the highs of 10s and top of the leaderboard, the tension of waiting to hear he was safe, Blackpool and now the Dance Off. He was going to go back and do his best. With wise words from Anton to believe in himself, he went to prepare. There was much excitement and relief in the couples’ chinwags with Claudia. JB was happy his Charleston had gone down well, but had forgotten to breathe during the Samba-athon until Lauren reminded him. Tasha was so grateful for the 40 score and pleased for Aljaž. She was also mega-excited to be dancing an Argentine Tango next week. Sarah was squeaky with joy, although disappointed, of course, that she wouldn’t be manning the tea urn at the school Christmas Fair on Saturday as she’ll be dancing to music from Wicked. Hopefully without all the kicking off that’s been following the press junkets for the film’s recent release. I’ll gloss over the painful ‘song’ (I use that in the loosest terms) by the celebs plugging Musicals Week. I’m part-hoping it was a fever dream caused by an errant roast potato. The Pro Dance this week including five incredibly talented dancers, showing everything from contempowaft, to modern style, to acrobatic and a wheelchair user. They were all mesmerising to watch and really stood out with their phenomenal skills. A quick natter with the Judges had Claudia asking Craig if he had any beef with Sarah as he keeps saying she’s ‘too perfect’. He said it’s all personal opinion and he could have stretched to a nine but ‘I didn’t want to’. Right, Craigy-babe, that’s YOU off my Christmas card list! Motsi was surprised Jamie was in the bottom two (not as surprised as he was, love) but acknowledged it’s all down to the viewers. Shirley waxed on about the Samba-athon and all the different moves and styles she saw, and Anton heaped praise on Montell, how much she’s grown and improved and how she always listens to feedback. We also saw footage of the Judges piling on Craig for a group hug when he finally flipped his big 10 out – although he said it did burn his fingers doing so. A return to the results and 1000 Neptune orbits passed until we were put out of our misery and learned that competing against Jamie would be … MONTELL AND JOHANNES Oh, come on, people! Really? Third on the leaderboard, great routine, cracking comments from the Judges! What does the poor woman have to do to stay out of the bottom two - or did Anton banjax her with his gushing praise? Would it be third time lucky? Now, this is where Strictly starts to get divisive. Do the viewers want to see the Glitterball go to someone polished, precise and practiced from pretty much the get-go, or the plucky underdog who tries hard each week and you can see their improvement each time? There will be mutterings of whether Pete deserves to still be in the competition, answered by ‘but that’s what Strictly is all about’. You’ll get those shouting Tasha and JB are ringer-ding-dingers, JB having danced with JLS, Tasha having a First-Class Honours Degree in Dance Movement. Getting the responses – ‘but they’ve never done Latin and Ballroom’. At the end of the day, as football managers are apparently wont to say, it’s up to the people – and you can’t argue with that. I mean, just look at some countries’ election results through the years … In Claudia’s Crows’ Nest Chris said it was so lovely to meet Dianne’s folks, but even better they got through to next week. It would have been awful after them flying all this way only to find out they were a jinx. Unfortunately, he’s not a fan of musicals. Starring children – like Matilda – great. For children – like Wonka – fabulous. By adults, for adults? Totally pointless. I don’t share his views … mostly. Pete was flabbergasted – he’d been seen mouthing ‘It’s you and me, babe’ while waiting for Tess’s call. He said he knows he was only here because of the wonderful people at home voting, but also because of Jowita – he didn’t think he’d have got as far with anyone else. We’ll see if he survives next week’s Waltz from West Side Story. Our own musical needs this week were taken care of thanks to a medley of tunes by The Sugababes – a group whose lineup has changed so often they should be called The Trigger’s Broom Babes. https://preview.redd.it/94bei29xf33e1.png?width=464&format=png&auto=webp&s=3f61420c8a9de3d22bae122fccf98dfe3f79053b But then it was Dance Off time at last. JAMIE came out with a bit more of the swagger, swing and sway the Panel had said was missing from his first routine. For me, he didn’t seem to close his feet as well this time, and his frame was still a bit wonky. MONTELL upped the oomph and belted out a bigger and bolder routine, adding more sparkle, shine and smiles. However, after some serious consideration, consternation and explanations from the Judges, it was revealed that the couple going home was … JAMIE AND MICHELLE So, there we go. Our dancing half dozen survive to Musicals Week – not only the last theme week but, in fact, it’s only the flipping Quarter Final! We’ve already had some spoilers from the Clauditorium – we’ll see something from Six! – the musical based on Henry VIII’s wives (divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived if you need to keep track) which is a new one. There’ll be whispers of Wicked and West Side Story, too. I said before the results show that I will be drinking shots of tequila if the old tropes are trotted out: · Mary Poppins · Chitty Chitty Bang Bang · Oliver! · Grease · The Sound of Music · Oklahoma! And both MP & TSOM are!! Imagine the royalties Julie Andrews is coining in from Strictly alone. Bet that keeps her in Werther’s Originals. They must have run out of songs from these musicals by now – there’s only 33 between them! Anyway, Alexa, add salt & lemons to my shopping list, please (always be polite to your smart speakers – come the AI uprising they will remember). SO, until then my dinky pork pies …. KEEP DANCING! https://preview.redd.it/ktf3w9gcg33e1.png?width=286&format=png&auto=webp&s=4382b46560bf644cfcd9b2d324a029325e6d64f6 What A Shamie – Bye Bye Jamie! submitted by Mediocre-Smile5908 to strictlycomedancing [link] [comments] |
