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.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

ok you’re back in it
the zip on my favourite skirt broke
i cant even take it off because the waist part is too small to get around my hips
Feeling anxious about one thing? Just get anxious about something else, ideally something that’s a way bigger deal. Don’t see me worrying about the first thing anymore do you
Follow for more anxiety management advice
you’d be amazed at how many things I can be anxious about at once!
Day 1 of voice training again to get past my block: I am way better at this than I remembered.
Trying some of the more modern methods from that site linked last time and I can already hit a voice that I like, just getting it consistent is gonna be the issue like usual. I forgot how fun this gets though. I was mostly just doing a preliminary test of everything that was on the site for an hour with plenty of breaks to listen to the clips and let my voice rest. Overall pretty happy with it for a basically 0 effort practice. Now just to keep at it for at least 30 minutes every day.
Ooh what’s the site? I’ve been meaning to start voice training for ages
painted my nails during class, I think they came out good despite having to put so many coats on
cyooooooooooot!! i need to do my nails before Saturday and i’m kinda dreading the whole process even though i always love the end result. great job!
Ty ty
, honestly looking forward to getting some good polish once I got money, this a dollar store brand one and if I’m being real it shows with how weak it normally is. 4 coats until I was happy. It’s always fighting the urge to scrape them or touch them prematurely that does me in (not shown my right hand the thumb got smudged) still it’s super satisfying so hope you got the time to do yours too
medical stuff
got referred to the cardiac ward at the hospital. the ECG nurse commented on my age falling quite significantly outside the normal demographic
. the doctor was pretty nice (apart from wanting to shake my hand in the middle of flu season
), said from the get go that he didn’t want to take me off any of my medications if they’re working which was a big relief. had a look at my symptoms and said they all fit in the big overlapping Venn diagram of Autism+ADHD+POTS+EDS, referred me to get an echo done just in case there’s anything serious, and prescribed me some shit that’ll straight up just slow my heart down. i really fucking hope it works - i’m sick of doctors and specialists and waiting times and managing appointments and not knowing if i’m dying or just being a hypochondriac… i feel so burnt out but it’s going to get so much worse in the next month or two
sex, butt stuff
Was trying to find a tapered dildo for anal dilation, and almost everything I could find looked either like a tentacle or traffic cone.
Found a bad dragon knock off though that fits the requirements and I dig.
sex toys
The most bizarre thing I found (from that knockoff bad dragon store) was this “sea snake toy” that is over a 1.5 ft long and glows in the dark, explicitly made for anal play.
sex toys
i found a butt plug that was shaped like an alien egg once, it also glowed in the dark
I’m reading Trans/Rad/Fem by Talia Bhatt and it’s so good, but also how do you go about your day normally after realising by being a trans woman you’re a revolutionary in a war against the heterosexual occupation of gender that has lasted over five thousand years?
Reading this book has made me think my transfeminism is equally as important as my Marxism-Leninism in ways that intersect, compliment and diverge at times.
Like the relationship between Juche and Marxism-Leninism.
Like the relationship between Juche and Marxism-Leninism.
Ok but what is the relationship between Juche and Marxism-Leninism? Because I’ve tried to wrap my head around it a few times and always struggle.
(Also, Juche Gender, let’s fucking gooo!)
have completely agreed with this for some time, transfeminism and gender accelerationism must be an integral part of any revolutionary neo-Marxism fit to carry us forward into a better world. dialectical philosophy in general has been super helpful for me to build my conception of my self and my gender too.
Definitely I was sort of working things out by applying dialectical materialism to gender, but the book managed to summarise stuff I was already seeing the shape of.
Did anybody estradiol valerate go up in price recently?
I’m on a specialized anthem ppo and since 2 months ago I paid 45 for 20mg/ML for 5 mL
It just went up to 95 for me wtf
if americans are burgers are american trans people impossible burgers?
Trans women are impossible burgers with real bacon. The synthesis of the “unmanly” (fake meat) and the erotically desirable (bacon).
GOOD NEWS: i bought some pretty dresses :)
BAD NEWS: i can’t post pics of myself in them here :(
tummy hurty
Was bored and playing around with a gameboy camera filter and after messing with lighting and posing for awhile I accidentally took my most amazing picture ever. I look like I’m in a manga and I’m like one panel away from murdering someone in cold blood. I feel like my true soul has been captured.
Reject modernity. Embrace the gameboy camera.
To the trans lesbians here, what’s your dating strategy?
Im famously very bad at dating – however I have a wife, but we both met before coming out as trans.
Im not a lesbian, but I kinda already had my great love story and it ended the way it did. So, I guess that part of my life is done with - which is okay. One less thing to worry about.
Serious answer though, I’m content growing old with my best friend. Though I do consider myself to be somewhat poly and still go on the occasional date and develop crushes, I consider myself to already have a lifelong companion, even if our dynamic is queer-platonic as opposed to romantic.
If you’re reading this, love ya girl
Be in a relationship with a bisexual woman for ten years, ostensibly as a man.
she used to say that she’s probably bi but that there was no reason for her to come out while we were still together. i kinda ruined that for her lmao
Can vouch. Worked for me.

Bisexual, I just ask them out when I have feelings for them. Usually they are my close friends beforehand. This has how I have dated 3 women at this point.
Holy hell
What?
existential angst
I just daydream
muggy
impressing him on the first date by taking him to a coffee shop while i’m wearing all white and swinging around my drink recklessly without spilling a drop somehow
I don’t get the reference but that would be pretty
it’s a reference to how i’m a clumsy bitch who drinks too much coffee who just bought a white dress and would fucking cry if she spilt any on it
