Bit idea: guy who gets on E to make no nut November easier
nsfw
I saw a porn comic once where two guys challenge each other to No Nut November and do increasingly gay things to try and win until they both end up transitioning
Reminds me of the Death Note comic, where L asks Lightβs pronouns and similar shit happens.

CW: Do not try applying for a US passport with the correct gender marker until we learn more.
This needs to be validated, but there is some information (see reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/transgender/comments/1i7wakb/state_department_may_have_halted_processing_for/) that not only has the state department halted processing for any gender marker changes, they are also confiscating supporting documents. So, if you send in a passport with the incorrect gender marker, not only could it be not corrected it and your other documentation could be stuck in limbo.
I just sent in my birth certificate and a therapist's letter. I am fucking terrified. I have another certified birth certificate copy at least, but now won't have any passport at all until something changes.
Apparently the ACLU is collecting peopleβs testimonies
Yes, I submitted mine, at least for what information I have now.

Need some advice from comrades in Germany: Is there any way to get GCS here without doing multiple months of therapy? I can't see how I could manage to get a slot at a psychotherapist, given how overworked they all seem to be, and I've got everything else done, so to speak, so I'm not even sure there'd be much of a point in therapy right now. Thanks in advance!
The only way without therapy would be to pay out of pocket. Which will be cheaper than in the US, but you still pay five figures for vaginoplasty.
If this is not an option, you could find a private therapist, 12 sessions are still less expensive than putting down 20k+ β¬ at the clinic. They usually have much shorter wait lists. Otherwise, it can take up to a year to get a slot in, if there is an open wait list in the first case. Systemic failure is everywhere in German trans healthcare, although i'd say it's even worse in the UK, Netherlands or Denmark (basically any place that bottlenecks treatment through gender clinics).
Apart from the therapist letter, you also need a letter from your surgeon that you've had a preliminary talk, are informed about the procedure and that there are no medical concerns that speak against the surgery. You should make an appointment for that as soon as possible, because they have wait lists for that as well. Some clinics like Lubos will only send out the letter once you have the one from your therapist, but you can book the appointment before that.
Finally, insurers also demand that you rule out being intersex (there is zero scientific reason for that, they just love openly discriminating gender diverse people). This is done either via an ultrasound at a gynecologist or urologist or via chromosome analysis from a blood sample. I went for the latter and included it with a letter from my endocrinologist about my HRT progress.
That's all the paperwork that is obligatory, but sadly it doesn't always end there. The MDK (the agency that gatekeeps this stuff) is also very likely to ask for other things which are even more bs than the other stuff. Examples include: A trans CV written by you, reports from therapists, day clinics and rehabs if you've had any mental issues in the last years to prove that you're mentally stable, the letters from the two forensic psychiatrists you had to see for your name change if you had to undergo the TSG crap, or other assorted nonsense.
This sounds like a lot, it is a lot and it's draining af to go through that process, but the MDK is mostly just playing pretend with this. They approve almost everything, but it's sadly a very normal thing that they only do that on your second try. Do not let these fuckers scare you away. They're dumb as rocks and more bark than bite, but this process is an annoying additional 2-3 month delay.
A far as surgeon wait lists go, these vary a lot. I don't know how quick you'd get an appointment if you pay yourself, but if you go through your insurance, Dr. Meister in Mannheim ist the quickest out of the big names rn at under a year of wait time. Morath & SchΓΆll in Munich are at 18 months wait time. Uniklinik Essen is the only place that offers PPT (peritoneal pull-through) as an option, but has the longest wait list at 2-3 years, and you will have to wait a year just to get a preliminary talk. Lubos Klinik and Dr. Taskov in Munich and Klinikum Essen Mitte are somewhere in between these wait times.
The heroine we needed! 
Thanks for the good answer! I do have an advantage in that I'm privately insured β something I'm thankful for every time I get involved with doctors about trans stuff β so a private therapist sounds like an option. Would you happen to know if there any good ones in, like, Berlin or Hamburg or so? I always get quite anxious when contacting therapists so I'd rather not do multiple telephone calls just to get blown off because of the wait list.
I'll get an appointment at one of the places in Munich. Incidentally, I've had a preliminary talk at Uniklinik Essen and the experience was uncomfortable enough that I decided against them β can't actually speak about the quality of the surgeries though.
Ok, in case you're privately insured, you do not fall under anything i just posted, but instead your insurance makes all the regulations up on its own. So you'd have to reach out to them for how they gatekeep this (they will gatekeep it somehow). You should be able to find a good private therapist in Hamburg or Berlin, but i'm not from either of these places, so you'd probably have to ask r/germantrans. You can also check out https://queermed-deutschland.de/ altough they do not list everybody and focus more on people who accept publically insured patients.
Iβm not German but taking a quick look at this https://www.lubos-kliniken.de/fachbereiche/transgenderzentrum/ihr-weg-zur-op/, it seems that a letter from a psychiatrist would be enough.
The people over at https://reddit.com/r/germantrans/ could give you more detailed advice when it comes to finding a good psychiatrist, insurance stuff, etc.
Getting that letter requires half a year of 12 therapy sessions, and most therapists that aren't transphobes have endless wait lists. That's before the legal battle to then get your surgery covered by insurance.

Is it risky to pierce your earlobe at home? Feels like every second girl I know did that in her teens, so it has to be pretty safe right?
If you do it cleanly, the needle and cork method is at least more sterile than getting your ears pierced with these reusable ear piercing guns they use at jewellers. It's generally not a bad idea to research good piercing studios in your area and get it done there, tho.
That sounds like a bad idea: it would be more likely to get infected, and they might end up looking asymmetrical.

Lord help me Iβm thinking of playing Skyrim again. TBF it has been like 7 years since I last played it.
Like vanilla but with pirated creation club content. Iβm a basic bitch and finding gear from Morrowind as a lesbian adventurer seems appealing,
Mod it to death, coward! Whatβs the point of playing Skyrim if it doesnβt crash every 15 mins? 
I have modded it to death a few times, now i actually feel like spending the time playing it.
every so often i play skyrim with no fast travel. makes you engage with the world more which i like personally

sick kids
Apparently our pediatrics unit isn't the only place getting overloaded, it's the whole hospital and every hospital in the health zone I'm in. We're only just now getting our big wave of peds patients on top of everything else. I dunno how many calls from desperate parents I've had to tell to either get in their pediatricians office, a walk in or if they think it's a true emergency to go to the ER. There's no secret back door to get your kid in to our unit, I know it's a long wait and they might send you home without much, there's literally no spac, for example, for your kid with 3 months of chronic diarrhea because there's 3 emergency appys, there's 4 kids on oxygen, two on airvo, one with epiglottis, three to be admitted from other rural emergencies including one who should've been sent to the big city but they're full too etc etc. We don't have room unless your kid absolutely needs 24/7 nursing care. It's so frustrating, I'm used to a higher standard of care for the community.
And it sounds like it's like this every unit in every hospital. And we're due for strike after February. Good luck
