@Fionawesome @alice this is common and often unsolicited advice, but regular exercise helps me. Especially running.

Also, maybe try scheduling your breaks and planning what you'll do once they're over, so you at least plan your nap/veg out time rather than just giving up when you're out of energy.

Gdi if the guy who has a perfect hairline and hair down to his waist doesn't make me dysphoric. And I'm not even balding outside of a minor widow's peak. He ties it up in a bun with chopsticks, and goes on the sales floor. Jealous. I think he's cis and not an egg, if only because he's paid zero attention to me, positive or negative.

I did get mangled by a hairdresser who doesn't know what split ends are, tho. So I'm still mourning my hair.

@bea I really just wish they were more distinct. If I don't get any more, I might consider implants just to push them more to the center and out...

@bea I know, right? So weird. I'm happy with them, mostly. Eight months HRT. I wish they were a bit more visibly defined, but I know there might be more growth in the future

Well, I have no idea what I'm doing. ABraThatFits says these are 36Ds, but I usually wear 36Bs. Clothes are weird and bad.

I've never had to say the nonbinary honorific "Mx." Do I pronounce it Mix or like Mz (Mizz) but with a more X-ey sound? I just want to be sure.

@Morgane @Hiraelle @codeawayhaley @kara_dreamer @maritroniuity also there's an MTA museum in NYC and dang does my autistic trans self ever want to go and make bad puns.

@listelian The weirdest is when someone says you're an inspiration, and you just think, "why?"

WAIT IGNORE THaT

The epiphany crossword solvers get when they figure out a clue is so cute. They're just so proud of themselves. :3

Want that genre of video to exist.

Also, sometimes I feel like a fake millenial because I enjoy playing roguelikes from time to time as a stress reliever but I see the rest as shit to push in the corner to focus on my studies, and legit don't get e-sports or let's plays. It feels like watching somebody else play crosswords. Makes it weird chatting with peers.

Which effectively meant I learned quickly that trying to slow down or be nervous about transitioning was a self-defeating attitude.

I'm lucky I live in a place nobody minds my trans ass.

Like, it's part of the usual calculus where I think about if I'm queer or trans enough to belong in the same community as people I admire, which is always a bad place to start. So I start getting mad at myself for figuring out I was trans at 27, or that I prefer to consider myself bi even though I generally prefer women, or that I know nothing about queer culture, or whatever. Also, I feel guilty when people act like I'm brave or working hard to be myself, when it's like, I take pills and wear the clothes I prefer? That's not hard.

Why do I keep thinking I'm too boring to be queer? I can't even quantify what that means.

And a swimsuit pic. I can barely wear a bra comfortably, and I honestly think women in serious corsets look kinda creepy.

I clearly have a dude tummy I'd like to lose, but I also like food and kinda expect weight loss to come from my pancake butt, as is tradition.

I was at a party and really got along with a cis woman. She clocked me, but only because she "knew a lot of trans people at college." So we chat about everything, and at one point says she's into corset training and I might be more comfortable if I did it.

I'm not sure if that was her saying, "I have a cool hobby" or her saying, "You're kinda super-fucking-really man shaped."

Guess what my brain is reading into it?

Pic of me this evening in workout clothes. TBF, I would fucking hate my hips more if my boobs weren't pitching a tent. https://witches.town/media/IfQQF_zm5leQOeaH32c
