Hope everyone reading this is having a good time.

Spyke has really been an amazing app, my private space where nobody watched what I did. The only place not clogged by trends, AI slop, and other random alt-right nonsense. Chef's kiss.

For all good things that exist, they eventually come to an end. So, goodbye! I can't wait to meet all of you wholesome people again.

Since we'll all probably meet after end-of-life, have fun while you can and all the best to you young and old people!

Everything will soon be very peaceful, everything will be still, everything will be almost dead.

Jennifer Benton’s daughter was just 5 years old when her kindergarten teacher pointed out something unusual: the young girl was developing breasts.

“It was really alarming,” said Benton, 39. “She may have been a tall little girl, but she was still a little girl.”

It was 2019 and the little girl loved playing with dolls, going out for ice cream, and watching her favorite Nick Jr. cartoon, “Bubble Guppies.”

“How is her body older than her actual age?” Benton remembers asking. At the teacher’s suggestion, Benton took the girl to see her local doctor in Ashtabula, Ohio.

At the time, Benton had never heard of precocious puberty. Having grown up in the Black community, where early puberty rates are among the highest in the U.S., Benton had known 7- and 8-year-old girls who’d had their periods or needed bras. But nobody in Benton’s family realized there was an actual medical diagnosis, or that prescription hormone treatments called puberty blockers could help slow the physical changes, if needed.
