Because a lot of stuff is fresh you get a lot less of “This was asked last week, next time use the search bar” kind of stuff too

The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is also real good

There’s a few similar mini series like the ABCs of Death and Holidays. I think both feature a different team for each short which is an interesting premise

Speaking of documentaries Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon is a pretty good meta horror movie.

I feel like Hereditary and Midsommer have similar vibes for some reason even though the plots are not at all similar

According to Wikipedia psychosis is

Psychosis is a condition of the mind that results in difficulties determining what is real and what is not real

so I think there would be elements of that at first. It would probably feel dream like and you would question reality but I imagine for most people the reality of it would sink in pretty quick. You would still have a sizeable chunk of your life and surroundings to ground you.

This is all likely extremely dependent on someone’s views of sex and gender though.

Even if you’re transgender your body slowly morphs at the chemical level into a woman or a man over a long period of time. A second puberty as I’ve heard it referred to. This would give the mind time to adjust gradually to a new reality/brain/prospective seeing as how one’s brain slowly changes over time on sex hormones.

As you mentioned there’s the brain chemistry aspect but an abrupt change like that on the physical level may be more similar to wearing the stereotypical clothes of the opposite sex and passing off as it. The big change could be how different society treats you.

Maybe it was considered a little dated or transphobic? I mean for a chunk of Lemmy users that’s essentially the dream and other people may not think that gender plays that important of a role. The word psychosis for some people could conjure up extremes like Cyberpyschosis from Cyberpunk/Edgerunners or schizophrenia versus a fugue state so maybe they thought it was a bit harsh for merely swapping genders.

I don’t know though. Could be something totally unrelated.

Here is a video by Half as interesting that talks about the creation of digital camouflage and why the US’s army version sucks if anyone is interested.

It’s about six minutes long

This and that article about the 16 year old that got arrested for cutting down a historic tree makes me wonder if there’s a way to uncut down a tree. Like using grafting and some kind of tree steroid
