Are there any restrictions on what topic I can write about? I was thinking about writing an article on obscure weapon sighting systems.
you’re free to write about whatever, it’s basically just a way for us to spotlight things we care about and share them with the community
Back to dreaming of going fast and listening to
specifically secret rings ost. That game has so many artists like it’s nothing new but I think the popularity of
40 kind of takes away from all the artists who’ve done sonic songs if I’m being real.
I would love to limit my dating pool to only trans people at this point, but there’s just not many enough around for that to feel like a viable strategy
the guy jeans i still wear really arent doing me any favors but I dont know what to do about that without spending money on jeans I dont need in cuts I havent verified look good on me yet :/ wish i had skirts. I’m probably going to retire the current pair I’m wearing because I think they are just not flattering whatsoever.
You have to try them out before buying
Working with dudes in construction really just breaks whatever crushes I have on them, I said it before but guys getting angry and shouty when the heat gets turned up is ugh. I get being frustrated but like chill or at minimum don’t lash out, hoping this puts a stop to my gay dreams towards them I really don’t wanna be a therapist or something.
men is too headache
for the most part I’m like only 10% interest at this point.
we admire you for still being at 10%
Honestly I’d much rather be dreaming of
or
with that 10% and it seems after today I might
men can be so emotional 😒
stoicism? I wish you’d practice it… seriously the manosphere branding themselves as emotionless badasses falls apart fast under actually trying conditions.
fr, mabye the whole stoic shit might actually be appealing if any of them could abide by it instead of coming up with excuses for why they’re exempt all the time. as I see it, it’s more of a way for guys to shame other guys for minor “infractions” like wearing a jacket when it’s cold lol
This exactly, I don’t know if I been doing stoic stuff myself but I’ve been learning to sit with my emotions in a “que sera sera” mindset. Maybe it’s just me masking so much
but I know how to control myself when things are going bad

Im going to meet with an endocrinologist in a bit less than 2 weeks to take some physical examinations before I can be prescribed hormone replacement. I should be happy and excited about this but I still feel so empty and pessimistic. It feels like I’ve wasted so much of my life having to justify my identity to cisgenders just so i can have a chance at getting a low quality hormone replacement at an inadequate dosage that will probably be criminalised soon anyway. I tried to get diy hormone replacement a couple of months ago but my mother intercepted the package and threw it away. I borrowed 100$ from someone to pay for it and now i need to pay them back.
Because of my mental health, I’ve lost all but one of my friends and to them im more of a detriment than anything else. Im scared to go outside and interact with other people because i live in a country of savages who would probably lynch me for being trans.
Started watching dracula and there’s keanu fucking reeves in it, day ruined
You didnt know!!
He’s got an infamously bad English accent in it. Its actually a bit charming in its own gangly way
TONY STARK was able to build his gender in a cave! With a BOX OF SCRAPS
Trans man Tony Stark would be an interesting take. He’d probably invent some super nano gender thing
always weird to find protest/event pictures on myself online, especially reddit, still not used to it. not posted by my party i mean, like from random people.
im so self conscious about my appearance
nice to see youre okay
you look great and dont let anybody (especially yourself) say otherwise!!! woof
ahhh thank you!
and yeah im doing well, i just got a job and do a shit ton of organizing constantly so im very busy.
air travel is tyranny
Absolutely! I heard something the other day that made me a little more comfortable with this impossible question, maybe it’ll help you too: answer this question as though it’s asking “which of the two normie genders do you feel more aligned with today?”
How do I motivate myself to start cardio so I can loose weight?
Does my brain have a switch that i need to press?
Don’t ask too much from yourself, but ask for more. The key is to make sustainable incremental changes over time, trying out new things and seeing what sticks.
Discussion of weight loss, potentially triggering for those who are sensitive to the subject.
Regarding weight loss, changing eating habits is pretty much the most effective means of achieving that. Dieting is generally counterproductive and it can cause one to develop a problematic relationship with food as a whole. Like I mentioned earlier, its the sustainable incremental changes over time that get the results that stick. You mentioned cardio, and cardio is very good for you, but… Building muscle mass is the more effective means of lowering one’s bodyfat percentage aaaaaaand the most effective means of gaining muscle mass is through weight training. That can be intimidating but a simple at-home dumbbell routine can be a wonderful introduction to fitness as a hobby.
I really wish the fitness comm was more active here.
“consistent mediocrity” is the key. don’t push yourself hard every day, just make sure to go out and do it to some level you can reasonably meet every day (or every other day). I’m able to go jogging 3.5 - 4 miles every day if I really try, but I just make sure to do at least 2 miles every time I go out, and I’ll go for more on days where I feel up to it. If I did that 3.5 - 4 miles every day I’d quit in a week, but I’ve been able to stick to the routine for 2 months so far because I’m not too hard on myself.
Imo, working exercise into your daily life is the easiest way to keep at it. Things like active commuting to work. Sometimes, I find something I enjoy as a hobby and can be physically active regularly for a little bit, but then it falls off. Of course even with commuting, I sometimes fall back into passive commuting habits.
Also, exercise frequently leads to just eating more if you aren’t watching food intake as well. Certainly are ways to do that without counting calories and exercising can help accomplish it imo, but its also easy to gain weight by excusing overeating.

CW: Horny, cigs
She wants me to put out a cig on her and I’m not sure I have the heart to do that? Like I’m a big softie, it took me a lot of warming up to more dominant stuff in past relationships because I was afraid of hurting my partners but I guess if she wants the cig put out on her? 😳
Goth girls be wild
Its the subs and the bottoms with the hard core fantasies, swear to god
I know, I’m a bottom too so I come up with some scenarios for sure
🆘 Trans Sisters Attacked – Need Urgent Help
Hey friends 💜 We were attacked in our camp just for being trans. Our shelters burned, and some of my sisters were hurt. We covered hospital bills, but now we really need help finding a safe place to stay in Juba.
We’ve raised $102 so far, but still need about $700. Any share or donation means the world to us. Thank you for being here. The mutual aid Link is in my profile.thank you for taking time to read this 💙🙏🏿…
I’ve used the word “catastrophic” too much these days, but like, I took my hormones to my parents, only to find out that the safe deposit I had booked cancelled on me. Now I have a ticking time bomb in my backpack.
Amazon delayed my delivered so it came after I left for my parents. By the time I will be back, the return period will have been expired.
Ali express decided to send my swimsuit to my address and not my parents. I don’t have a body of water where I live :)
would it really be too hard to keep it hidden in your backpack while staying with them?
my deepest darkest wish fulfillment fantasy
i need the fucking Vitamin to fix me
I mean not to give you false hope, but I know someone this happened to lol. Bro literally just had a B12 deficiency and his entire life and personality turned around after getting on it. Not saying this will happen to you, but will say that this does in fact happen
