Oooooh, thank you. I was the one who made the pumping post.

It’s very frustrating that she supports Israel.

I had a good new years. Spent it with my best friend since kindergarten who also happens to be trans. We got high, ate snacks, and played video games. Fun time.

I don’t have any official eating disorder that I’m aware of, but in the past I had an unhealthy relationship to food. The main reason was because more fat=more female pattern fat distribution pre-T, and that obviously makes dysphoria worse. It was hard for me to just eat food or gain a little bit of weight without feeling a sense of dread that it would make me look more feminine. I would imagine that a lot of trans people experience that pre transition.

I don’t use outlook anymore but I do use Thunderbird and the UI is janky and outdated, plus it has to download and catch up on messages every time you open it.

This title is misleading, it makes it sound like he was assaulted by the sheriff because he is trans, which wasn’t the case. Regardless, what a fucked up situation.

Yep 😍

(I despise the system)

Can confirm this is the way

Although the measures ultimately did not become state law, many worry that these legislative attempts, coupled with anti-transgender rhetoric from certain political figures, embolden people who might already harbor anti-trans sentiments.

Just name drop MTG at this point.

It’s been a decent week. Things have been calm. I like that the weather is finally cold now.

Did you upgrade any of it or was that how it came out of the box? I like the look of it and the old thinkpad keyboards

I’m curious what are the specs on your machine

Most definitely a power couple. Might be the biggest power couple in the trans community. I’m very happy for their joy from their wedding and hope that their marriage is a happy one.

Awesome, congrats

Nah you belong here, this community is for everybody who falls under the transmasc umbrella. Welcome to the community

Tumblr has a lot of LGBTQ people, but is a text based platform as opposed to a short form video platform.

Not doing too well right now. Currently on winter break so I’m isolated. I think things will get better for me mentally after the break. Really want top surgery but I don’t know if my ability to get it will be impacted by all the stuff after January or not. At this point I probably need a break from the news and social media and to go on hikes. Just have to put one foot in front of the other.

I did finally get all of my legal documents updated (minus birth certificate BC my birth state won’t let me), so yay for that.

I wish there were more studies on it. Had no idea that was a thing.

To add to this, make more friends. That can help fill the loneliness void.

I’m straight so not exactly the same situation but I recommend that you don’t let it take too much of your mental energy and do things that make you happy in the meantime. If you keep looking the odds are that you’ll find someone eventually, just takes time.

Can relate to the idea that it would be easier not being trans. It makes dating a lot more complicated to navigate and I’ve struggled with the idea that being trans makes me less desirable and attractive. Doesn’t help that I’m really bad at picking up if someone’s flirting with me and feel guilty if I do think that and what if she’s just being friendly. Ultimately I realized that the right person isn’t gonna care that I’m trans and will love me for my full self.
