2025.01.24 02:34 Expensive-Walrus5547 Advice please, will HRT help me?
Hi, looking for some advice. I’m 46 still cycling regular (but heavier). I’m on what I would consider a new health and happiness journey. I’ve cut wayyyy back on alcohol, have been eating better and working out and taking better care of my skin. My main problems are 1) being overweight and 2) my mood before my period. Despite trying hard, I still have a belly and I think it has gotten worse in the past few years. I also have been lucky to always have good mental health, but in the last 6 months or so the week before my period I will get really really down on myself. Thinking I’m a failure at work and home, etc. it’s bad- It is not like me. I talked to a MIDI nurse today and she recommended estrogen low dose patch, progesterone oral. She also said once I am ok on the hormones we can add in a GLP-1. My questions are-do you think this will help my mood and potentially kick start my weigh loss? I don’t have night sweats (I did when I was drinking wine but since I stopped the sweats have stopped), and I don’t have any other symptoms of peri that are bothering me yet. I’m just wondering if starting this plan is a good idea. Thanks in advance for the tips!

2025.01.24 02:34 SassyButCool [OH] [All] what can I do?
Our board placed a large trash on HOA property, mere feet from my property. The trash can is used as a dog poop receptacle. It has not been emptied on a regular basis despite complaints to the board and property manager. We have a ton of dog walkers in our community and dog walkers from adjoining communities as well. The poop bags are overflowing the can and scattered all around the ground all year long. My children play in our yard and I’ve seen flies and it smells. This is making me so angry! What can I possibly do to remedy this situation?

2025.01.24 02:34 healmehealme Missing mail and my usps account has been disabled
Mailed out a priority package early this month (January) that was meant to be delivered on the 9th. It's been stuck on 'Awaiting Delivery' for weeks now.
Tried to go online to report missing mail and ask for a search and it wouldn't let me log in. Said that my account was disabled. I was never notified of that or any issues. Any attempts to make a report resulted in errors. First it wouldn't accept my email, then when I filled out a long series of forms it errored out on that, too.
When the package was meant to be picked up from my house we had bad weather. USPS kept reporting that they attempted to pick up the package but it wasn't there. This was a lie; the untouched snow outside showed that no one even came to the door for two straight days. They finally picked it up on the third day. I don't know if this is why my account could've been disabled. Could it be because I go through PirateShip to mail the packages? I only ever mail to one address and have never been notified of this being an issue.
This is ridiculous and I don't know what to do about it.

Just placed my order for the new model Y, but didn't opt to the tow hitch even though it would be included in the price. I don't ever see myself towing anything, but I feel like I'm leaving something on the table. Should I modify my order to include?
Does adding the tow hitch leave a big ugly metal thing sticking out of the back of the car?

2025.01.24 02:34 rezanentevil Bills on gender, conversion therapy debated by North Dakota lawmakers
A panel of lawmakers considered two bills Tuesday that could have sweeping impacts on LGBTQ rights in the state: one requiring North Dakota to recognize only two genders and another authorizing social workers to offer conversion therapy.
House Bill 1181, introduced by Rep. SuAnn Olson, R-Baldwin, would require all state-funded entities to refer to people by their sex as determined at birth. For example, state agencies would be forbidden to use female pronouns to refer to a transgender woman. A similar bill failed during the 2023 session.
The rule would apply to all “to all policies, records, forms, rules, standards, procedures, guides, materials, instruction, training, correspondence, advertising, or marketing used by any entity receiving state funding,” according to the bill.
Olson pointed to an executive order President Donald Trump signed Monday establishing a two-gender policy for the federal government.
“As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders: male and female,” he said during his inauguration speech.
Olson said North Dakota should follow the Trump administration’s lead.
“This change is needed so that North Dakota is in alignment with the federal government’s policy,” Olson told members of the House Human Services Committee on Tuesday.
The bill also ties the definition of sex and gender to DNA.
“If sex, gender, gender identity, or gender expression is contested, determination is established by the individual’s DNA,” the bill states. The bill doesn’t say who would be responsible for paying for DNA tests for individuals who are subject to such an inquiry.
Rep. Jayme Davis, D-Rolette, asked how the bill would handle intersex people, who are born with features that don’t fit within a gender binary.
One study published in 2000 estimated that about 1.7% of people are intersex, though the federal government does not collect data on these demographics.
“In that instance, generally, parents have worked with medical people at that point to make a determination of what works for that child at that time,” Olson said.
The North Dakota Student Association, which represents the state’s 11 public colleges and universities, adopted a resolution earlier this month in support of transgender students’ rights.
Grace Reep, representing the North Dakota Student Association, on Tuesday spoke against the measure. She called the proposal an attack on free speech that could have a negative impact on North Dakota’s ability to attract and retain workers.
“North Dakota must work to ensure that all NDUS (North Dakota University System) students feel welcome in order to secure a strong educational and workforce development system within the state,” Reep said.
Another proposal heard by the House Human Services Committee on Tuesday, House Bill 1430, would make it legal for social workers to offer conversion therapy to LGBTQ people.
“It is not an ethical violation for a licensee to offer an individual questioning the individual’s sexuality or gender a treatment plan or counseling plan that aligns with heterosexuality or the individual’s biological sex,” the text of the bill states.
The licensee would have to disclose the nature of the treatment being offered and the client, or the client’s parent or guardian, must consent to the treatment, according to the bill.
Most leading professional organizations denounce conversion therapy as an ineffective treatment that has been linked to increased anxiety, depression and suicidality. Currently, licensed social workers cannot provide conversion therapy in North Dakota.
House Bill 1430, introduced by Rep. Lori VanWinkle, R-Minot, seeks to put the treatment back on the table. Lawmakers voted down a similar bill last session.
People should have the ability to seek conversion therapy if they want it, VanWinkle told lawmakers. She said it should be provided as an alternative to therapy that is LGBTQ-affriming.
“To prohibit counseling that aligns with traditional or biblical viewpoints is religious discrimination,” she said.
Rep. Gretchen Dobervich, D-Fargo, asked VanWinkle if she knew of any therapy courses approved in the state in conversion therapy.
“I have never come across any classes on continuing education or courses that I could take where I could become certified to provide this kind of a service,” Dobervich, who works in health policy, said.
VanWinkle replied her bill is not focused on the area of training or coursework.
Several representatives of the social work industry spoke at the hearing in opposition to the bill.
Elizabeth Anderson, a licensed counselor, said it’s a misconception that social workers try to force people to accept their gender identity or sexual orientation. She said social workers don’t try to change the minds of clients who have anti-LGBTQ beliefs.
“Part of our ethics is that we do have to really support our clients and their religious beliefs,” Anderson said.
Mary Shelkey, a District 33 resident, spoke in favor of the bill.
“Is it not their job to give any individual, no matter their gender identity, sexual preference or any other issues they’re struggling with, all options, no matter what?” she asked lawmakers.
In neutral testimony on the bill, North Dakota Board of Social Work Examiners Administrator Terry Effertz said lawmakers should consider adding language to the bill outlining professional standards for conversion therapy.
“If something went wrong, we need to know how we can enforce a complaint against somebody if they’re a nefarious actor,” Effertz said. “As this bill stands right now, they might say, ‘Listen, you can’t do anything to me. I’m allowed to offer this kind of care.’”
Committee Chair Rep. Matt Ruby, R-Minot, asked Effertz to help work with lawmakers to address this issue.
The committee didn’t take action on either bill during Tuesday’s meeting.
A resolution proposed by Rep. Bill Tveit, R-Hazen, and Rep. Jeff Hoverson, R-Minot, would have called on the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a previous ruling legalizing gay marriage. The resolution was withdrawn from consideration last week.
The bills follow multiple anti-LGBTQ bills passed by the state in 2023.
House Bill 1522 established several new rules about how K-12 public schools accommodate transgender students. Schools cannot require staff or students to use someone’s preferred pronouns, for example, and transgender students are barred from using bathrooms that align with their gender identity. It also says schools cannot withhold information from parents about a child’s transgender status.
Another bill passed that session, House Bill 1473, also restricts bathroom, shower and locker rooms access for transgender or gender-nonconforming youth and adults in state higher education dorms and correctional facilities.
In both laws, schools and other institutions have to provide alternative facilities for transgender people to use.
North Dakota in 2023 also banned gender-affirming care for most adolescents. A lawsuit challenging the law is set to go to trial on Monday.
