Corvids refers to birds belonging to the family Corvidae. Typically associated with birds in the genus Corvus, which includes crows, ravens, and loyalist primarchs, these “true crows” only make up 47 of the 135 current species. Corvids have native habitats in almost every place on Earth, and cover a wide variety of birds from the aforementioned crows and ravens to magpies, jays, and nutcrackers.
I’m gonna try and update the thread with a new corvid each day of the week, there’s a lot of beautiful plummage on some corvids and also a lot of just like little gremlins, so hopefully that’ll be kinda fun.

dysphoric gay rant
Yall im kinda freaking out. Idrk if im gay or not and its really making me dysphoric. Like the two times ive ever been sorta flirted with kinda were both by other tfems and ngl it was kinda good. But the thing is ive been mostly toric for a while and had a crush on this trans dude in a club im in, so im kinda not sure if im still attracted to what. And ngl as a professional lazy basement dweller with little transition to my name, I get really sensitive and dysphoric around other tfems unlike mascs where they arent a mirror to my failures. I know this is probably internalized transphobia and that kind of dysphoria but I genuinely have no confidence in my identity and with my current home situation, I am pretty depressed because my mom despises the real me and threatened to kick me out if I did anything queer, which includes hrt. So like im basically coping with dysphoria by gaming while questioning and the ambient dread in my house lingers.

Im bi and this just sounds like bi cycle stuff to me, personally. Like I’ll go a while liking men way more than girls, and wonder if Im just straight… then see a pretty girl and go “ah yes, now I remember.” And visa versa.
The part that sounds like internalized transphobia is being dysphoric when other trans femmes are “passing better” (Im assuming thats the deal), because youre comparing yourself to them and finding you measure yourself short. We are the worst judges on how pretty we are or how femme looking etc.
And also ultimately at the root of it all is, if you dont think you can start transitioning cause of your mom - ideally the best thing you can do is move away from your mom.

For what it’s worth the feeling of comparison is ridiculously common and you aren’t alone in this.
