+
+i started estradiol injections a few months ago and felt it might be useful to write out my experiences with each of them for posterity
+
+## patches
+
+my endo started me on estradiol patches. these definitely work, but only if you put them in the right spots and also if they stay on
+
+i had trouble with both of those and found it pretty annoying
+
+aside from that, i could feel them starting to wear off 12-24 hours before it was time to replace the patches. definitely not ideal
+
+additionally, insurance sucks and regularly caused me to be a couple days late on replacing a patch because they wouldn't cover it in time
+
+## sublingual pills
+
+these are pretty neat. easiest and cheapest of the bunch
+
+unfortunately, i could feel _these_ wearing off too, at about 5-6 hours after a dose. apparently this isn't common, but it affected me sooo
+
+i've also had problems with getting accurate estradiol level measurements since it flucuates so much. definitely my preferred method if they worked better for me
+
+## swallowed pills
+
+before switching to injections my endo had me try out swallowing my estradiol pills instead of dissolving them. the results for me were that i couldn't feel them wearing off anymore, BUT i couldn't get my levels back up either. not an ideal solution
+
+## injections
+
+these are _great_
+
+i was super nervous before starting them but turns out it's actually not that hard to inject yourself if it's your only option
+
+cannot feel these wearing off at all between doses _and_ i get good estradiol levels
+
+my E levels are so consistently good now that i don't need a testosterone blocker which is _very_ nice
+
+however!
+
+## insurance _sucks_
+
+my insurance filled my first three-month prescription of estradiol valerate for around $120. this is absurd.
+
+then they failed to fill my prescription when i was out. when i called to ask for a fill, they told me they couldn't. doing the math from what they told me i found they expected me to around 16 and half doses out of a vial, which would be an extra 3-4 weeks over what the prescription from my endo actually said
+
+so instead i went out of pocket and through discount programs get my estradiol for cheaper than with insurance and (importantly) _on time_
+
+loooooove insurance.
+
+## conclusions
+
+- injections rock if you can get insurance to cover them
+- sublingual's good too and works great for most people but didn't for me
+- avoid swallowing them
+- patches are ehhh
+
+that is all.

+
+a while ago i was looking for something to do and my brain decided i should.. build a complete reimplementation of the minecraft server, naturally. i knew i'd never get anywhere close to finishing that project before losing steam so instead, i redirected this inspiration into [a minecraft classic server](https://github.com/zyllian/classics)!
+
+<md class="float-left w50" type="blog-image" src="cdn$2024/07/classic1.png" content="at one point while changing my world format, worlds started getting sent to clients diagonally! don't remember what caused this, though."></md>
+
+minecraft classic has [fairly simple networking](https://wiki.vg/Classic_Protocol) as it turns out, so building a server which vanilla classic clients can connect to isn't too bad if you know what you're doing, and with no need to stay true to the vanilla map format, you can simplify things even further!
+
+minecraft classic actually still has a decently large community around it, and what i believe are the most popular clients/servers all implement [an extended networking protocol](https://wiki.vg/Classic_Protocol_Extension) to add extra features that vanilla classic doesn't support.
+
+my implementation lacks basically any kind of anti-cheat and is lacking most of the community protocol extensions, but it's still pretty cool to have built it! i love working on random projects and it's nice to see one which is actually useable, even if there's [a lot to add](https://zyllian/classics/issues)!

+
+## The Technical Side of Things
+
+I haven't really written anything about how my site works before, so this is also going to contain some general information about the site as a whole.
+
+`zyl.gay` is a static website built with a custom static site builder I built for it. It started by taking Markdown pages and rendering them on top of the appropriate template.
+
+When I added the [images section](/images/) to the site I added the first abstraction on top of this: YAML files with the relevant metadata for the image (including a short but unstyled description) which then get rendered not only into pages for the individual pages, but also a paginated display for all the images _and_ a method to view images by tag.
+
+To get blogs working I modified the image page code to be generic over provided resource types, so really the images and the blog posts are rendered the same way, just with different configurations. -->
