If only there were still US models, I would absolutely buy the VII. I love my IV but dropped it a few too many times and have some cracks and occasional weird screen issues because of it. The price point is pretty bonkers but I make enough to afford it and haven't regretted what I spent on it at all.

I'm one of those people that basically never uses consumables in games because I never know when a good time to use them is. I really like the way expedition 33 does it instead because there's no reward to hoarding them so I actually do use them. You only have a couple and they refresh every time you rest, plus you can also increase your max of each throughout the game.
My mom did when I was like 3 but never told me xd
Then I suspected for much of my adult life but put enormous effort into masking it because I didn't want to accept it
Then in my time at a therapy group a few years ago, I occasionally described like how my brain works and my thought processes and everyone said I should get tested but in like a nice way that helped me slowly finally accept that part of myself
It's also worth noting that unless your temples are quite receded, it's actually surprisingly common that cis women have sharp temple corners of their own. Dysphoria doesn't always care about that though so it's up to you how you feel about it in the end. I know plenty of trans girls that didn't and still don't give a fuck and look amazing (and pass, since that's something they care about) and I definitely would have also passed just fine without it but my dysphoria just didn't care and couldn't accept it as it was.
Minoxidil can definitely give a lot of regrowth, especially when you're on HRT so there's a lot less DHT in your system to fuck with the regrowth effects of it. However, there are some drawbacks. A big one is that even topical minoxidil frequently causes increased body hair growth which is generally undesirable for trans women. It won't turn you into a hurry werewolf overnight so you could do it, see how it works for you, then stop. Similarly due to the lack of DHT in your system, the consequences for going off it are significantly less than with a cis man.
I haven't personally used minoxidil but that's the information I've gathered over time from people I know and things I've read online.
I have, however, used finasteride and oh boy let me tell you I fuckin love it. I ended up getting hair transplants to fill in my temples anyway but I was seeing regrowth in the corners, just slower than what I wanted for my transition timeline. It was also helpful for some unfortunate density issues I had on my crown but the very best thing it did for me, or at least likely had a part in, was decreased body hair. I used to grow this wiry gross hair on my shoulders and it just stopped entirely after a few months on HRT and finasteride. I know HRT slows body hair growth over time but this was super fast so I generally attribute it to the finasteride.
For me it was more a belief of what they'd be able to do, not try to do. I had faith in the system to stop certain things but the lack of pushback from anyone else in power despite everything going on right now is proving that believe to be very misguided and naive
Holy shit that Nemo song was so good
For the person you're replying to, lighter hair (such as blonde, gray, or some form of dirty blonde) generally doesn't work with laser. To deal with those hairs, the option is electrolysis which is slow, painful, and more expensive than laser especially for large areas but also a very high hair kill rate.
The whites look normal as far as I can see on my phone. There isn't much detail but it seems to match the whiteness of the wall and his fur
Women are the best
Aww that's right autocorrect, they are
Because what it actually means is the freedom for them to spew their hate speech without consequences. Freedom of their speech, not others'. They hate being "punished" for their hateful ideologies and view it as censorship. Being able to spread their hateful beliefs to large groups is extremely important in propagating it to other people. Conservative created platforms are inherently limited by the fact that their audience is not only quite small but also everyone there already believes their bullshit. They want and need to place their hate in mainstream places where others will see it and hopefully come to believe it
There's also the bonus effect of reducing both the amount and proportion of non-conservative voices.
I've been using gboard swiping for idk how many years now and I have no issues with it. There are some words that will less common to get right like say as vs ad or weed vs we'd but it's so quick and easy to press the erase key and then swipe it again. If you do a swipe and then erase it, I've found that it never picks that word again no matter how many reswipes until you've decided on that word and moved on. So if I did want we'd but got weed earlier, weed goes back into the normal prediction priority or whatever as soon as I've moved past we'd.
Or even if I swipe and it isn't the right word, the autocorrect/autocomplete/suggestion bar will be words very similar to the swipe motion I did. I find it has the right word in that bar (if I didn't get the right word in the first place) probably 90% of the time. Similar suggestions by swipe shape also remain for the duration of, eh... that keyboard session for lack of a better term? You lose it if you close the keyboard or switch apps. So if you're just trucking along doing your swiping and notice later that it picked a word incorrectly, you can still go back to it and have the swipe shape-based recommendations.
I have no idea if this stuff is how it works out of the box or if it's because of customization settings I did but it works really well and makes phone typing pretty easy.
I heard the VI works fine in the US but I guess not the VII? The Xperia subreddit seems to constantly recommend against it
