Abt switch
The Abt switch is a kind of railway switch used on funiculars (inclined cable railways) that doesn’t have any moving parts. It allows two cars to pass each other going uphill/downhill while sharing the same tracks. While most train switches rely on physically moving a section of track so the train goes one way or the other, the abt switch doesn’t move at all. Instead each carriage has a grooved wheel which makes it turn left or right at a junction by sticking to the track on one side.
As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Guy who I encounter like once a month sees me. First thing he says “is your chest large or do you have titties?”
I’m not ready to stop boymodding. I’ve officially entered the twilight zone. I’ve wasted too much time doing 0 voice training or practice with makeup/clothes.
being shitty and making this about me
Low key the thing I’m most scared of happening and probably what will happen in another year or so to me. Fuck I hate thinking about that.
spoiler
No worries, you aren’t being shitty. Adding on your own takes is the point of a comment thread.
But yeah, having your stealth be pierced through can be quite scary. Buy everything about this process is scary when one does it with 0 support from other irl people.
spoiler
Thank you
Yea ngl I’m not sure if scary is a strong enough word. I do not want that to happen to me.
Being alone irl sucks bad :meow-hug:
si
Low key I think about killing myself to avoid that phase a lot, I just hate the thought of that so much, fuck.
I still boymode even when I made an entirely new account whose name implying I would stop
Fr, I don’t want to be super fem, I just want to feel comfortable.
Many of my clothes are tattered, I need to buy new ones. A new vial of E is arriving and my boobs have grown bigger.
All the signs are gathering together. But I have a massive complex about wearing girls clothes.
I know it’s not ideal for regular use, but would undecylate be a good way to cover a gap of a few weeks and avoid having to take hrt things across a border?
plenty of folks use undecylate for regular use, its just complicated
I think so, that’s what I’d do if it’s only a few weeks.
waow I’m back
I hung out on 4t4 for awhile, but it’s starting to get too negative for me again.welcome back
Welcome back, missed having you around.
Welcome back.
cw: psychologist
The psychologist has prescribed me and online course with homework
.
cw: cuts and blood
I was prepping bread with my tits out when I cut myself (not on the tits, but my brain did wander in that direction)
I didn’t have anything for cleaning up the wound so I ran it under water for a bit and let the blood coagulate on its own.
It’s a nice dark red color. I’m sure a doctor would approve.
Came out to my trans friends! (I wonder why I had a bunch of trans friends while presenting cis lol)
spoiler
Fuck I’m lonely
I hate being so alone
Two notes on this, one is everyone asking me what I did this weekend. I did fuck all. Second, work gave me two tickets to a local haunt and I don’t have anyone to go with.
But mostly just being alone sucks.
✨️ 🪄
Casting a magic spell to make the sadness go away!
We’re all here for you. Spaceships pinging each other in the wide cosmos.
*hugs*
yea… yea
I’m tired boss

I have once again concluded this shitty life isn’t for me and isn’t worth living. I dont have the capacity or motivation or whatever the fuck to actually improve and just want to wish them away. But they will not go away, they can’t, it is inescapable. Nothing is going to fix me or this god awful situation I’m in.
going to go scroll and go to bed. Then get up early to work the extra shjit I signed up for.
itd be so cool if my whole life didnt feel like punishment for something i didnt even do
Emotions are hitting harder
By emotions I mean sadness I keep getting to the verge of tears
Yeah sadness was the big one for the first bit. Going from never crying to crying at the drop of a hat can take adjustment. Eventually, emotionally, you get to experience way more and different and more fine grain than before with dysphoria and T.
I am less angry than I was before HRT but feminine rage is absolutely real and I get that.
I hear that happens. You partially inspired me to hit up my doc for hrt so hopefully I can join you in the tears soon :)
You’re going to make me cry :doggirl-cry: like actually am though…
Good job starting hrt!
I didn’t mean to make it worse! and thank you, I don’t know how long it will take, but it’s been so long I don’t mind waiting a bit longer
:kitty-cri: no no it’s okay… not your fault just a bit emotional…
If it sounds like the wait list is long just diy, it’s not that hard. That’s what I’m doing
Good for you, that’s an exciting step to take!
It’s exciting! A little scary, not a fan of doctors generally, but it’ll be worth it
Lol my appointment got pushed back months, but it turns out they are on leave, so now I’m speaking to somebody on Wednesday :)))))))))
The first couple months can be emotionally tumultuous, but once it calms down it can be nice to feel things differently. That’s how it was for me anyway.
sighs
the financial feasability of leaving the US is looking less than ideal for us. woof
Real, Idek where would take me. If only I burned out after college.
i havent had much luck with vidya gaymes recently, i get so bored so fast these days. im mostly a reading gal now-a-days
