@KawaSeadrake Also, I'm not really a furry or anything similar, but I have no qualms with the community. Will I fit in?

@KawaSeadrake Thanks. I figure it's conditional on a few things, but usually the people who can tell don't care. I scheduled an FFS consult just to know more about the process. I don't know that I really want to miss work for it given I'm already asking for 2-3 months of medical leave for SRS.

After getting sirred multiple times on purpose by a stranger, after months of passing just fine, I decided to schedule a FFS consult.

I'm so fucking mad that this is the solution. And I hate that I have to deal with these jerks. Nobody could tell in the burbs, nobody cared in NYC.

And I don't want it for me. I want to fit in. And I'm fucking scared of the pain and risks. I'll risk my dick for a vagina, but I'm scared to risk my face for one society prefers.

@lifning @viv But for serious, they did cancel an order on me and never call me about it. Jerks. And it was all because I put in the billing address wrong (I had just moved and forgot that the credit card would be listed as belonging to the old place)

@lifning @viv excuse?

What's currently the good instance for an active timeline with trans women at varying stages of transition? I used witches.town for that, and kinda miss it, and in the shutdown of that, I saw a lot of new ones come online.

I want to get more into poetry. Who should I be reading? Prosewise, I really like Haruki Murkami and Philip K Dick, if that informs what kind of theme and "voice" I'm into.

Wondering if lasting happiness is a real and sustainable thing, or a thing that's possible for someone like me.

I've felt guilty for not enjoying my life as much as I should, especially as a child. It's both liberating and sobering to consider the possibility it might just not be a reasonable goal.

I do experience joy. I never really have major difficulties with depression. But I'm so baseline, even when my life is objectively good.

I can't tell if I'm losing weight, muscle, or boob, or if it's losing elasticity, but my favorite bra is loose. Not really looking forward to buying a new one in Boston. It's gonna be expensive, and I'm going to be visibly trans compared to going to ex-urban malls.

I just recorded my voice. It's remarkably bad. I sounded better after pitching in, but I can't always do that.

I'm seeing a speech pathologist in a week. I really hope it goes well. But I have some uncomfortable speech therapy memories. My mom used some aggressive early intervention autism tactics and acted like I could never speak well enough.

I just wish they gave a moment to have thantos explain how population growth being exponential and extraction of resources being generally linear barring technological innovation would fit in his plan.

I mean, is he thinking we'll starve ourselves out of Green Revolution 2.0?

I'm upset nobody else makes this nitpick in glib reviews of that movie.

@envgen
It's nice to not have to mail all those floppies back and forth to feed my neopet.

Whew, got out from Infinity War to find out insurance doesn't wanna pay for injections and a creepy chaser text on my phone. And the movie wasn't as good as I hoped it'd be!
