Sending good vibes to all of my trans comrades 
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
I made a list for what I'd want out of a future partner and it's fucking boring π. Independent, supportive, empathetic, and then the lesser ones like: able to get by without smoking weed/drinking everyday, has a relatively normal regular sleep schedule.
I used to be cool. WTF happened, hit my 30s and now my soul wears a business skirt and blazer.
friday night vibes at the laundromat are quiet and much appreciated to the weekend vibes
Me spending 5 mins on a doodle: This is amazing I am an artistic genius
Me spending 10 hours on an illustration: This is terrible I am a fraud what am I doing with my life
I'm not giving up nor do I actually think it's bad. It's just that staring at the same work for so long makes me kinda hate it no matter the quality. I probably just need to take more breaks
I'm gay. Gay like you wouldn't believe, gay like you haven't seen before, you simply cannot comprehend how gay i am
I'm currently at war with the bourgeois conception of high art and good taste.
Caught myself in the mirror this morning and saw I got some underboob now~
(cw dysphoria)
~~Then caught myself a few hours later and saw I have stubble cuz I shaved poorly this morning~~
(I know I posted these in trachat but I want extra attention now since I can't post my silly paragraphs long posts till after work)
I've gotten a weird case of brainworms where sometimes when I look at pics of someone completely cis I think to myself that she doesn't really pass in this.
Separated from my blΓ₯haj for the next 7 days. That's okay, it's not like I have a deep emotional attachment to it or anything 
Marched at pride yesterday, met a ton of my trans friends, had a great day in the city and finally we capped it off with a drag show and lipsync battle that gave my gal pal and me the biggest dose of queer joy you can imagine. It was wonderful seeing every single letter in LGBTQIA being represented by such magnificent, radiant people. The straights have no idea what they're missing out on. If you're reading this while closeted, please make it your goal to come out here and join us. You're needed and will be welcomed with open arms and it will be beautiful.
doubts, dysphoria, fears of bigotry
I'm just so confused. For every advantage it feels like there's a reason not to transition. I'd love to have a girl body more then anything, but that comes with misogyny. I'd love fat redistribution, but will it even look good on my massive frame or am I still going to look "manish". My voice dysphoria is truly awful, I hate speaking and its what holds me back most from asking for she/her. Can I work on it enough to be happy with it? If I could I'd be the happiest girl in the world but... you know what if it doesn't sound the way I want. I'm scared to come out, but staying like this is hell. I feel like life is and will continue to be trudging through mud. Either dysphoria or bigotry and harassment. I can't stay where I am though.
I don't know. I'll probably give it a shot at some point and decide from there what to do. I know this sounds very downer but I'm just so confused and scared.
People say all trans women are so strong but I'm very much 
so that's worrying too. I have always been a quitter.
HAHAHA! YES! MY HAIR IS FINALLY LONG ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO FIT INTO MY MOUTH! IT GROWS!
Heard back on soy milk. Around two cups of soy a day is fine with my estrogen (about a gallon a week).
And two gallons is not. And since I get a lot of phytoestrogens elsewhere in my diet, I'm switching milks (maybe almond, oat is expensive for some reason). And switching to tea generally, since almond and oat milk in coffee doesn't do it for me.
a bit sad
I donβt think Iβm ready to get into a real relationship again but I do wish I had someone to just cuddle with sometimes.
I've been hyperfocusing on art all day again. I thought I'd share what I have so far:
work in progress
Line art:
This will eventually be the first boss of the shump game I'm making. Inspired by the Eucharitid Wasp. I'm slowly piecing together multiple layers so there will be lots of animation in the game. Legs, head, antenna, body, back carapace, wings, and stinger will all be separate objects that animate independently to give it life and to have multiple ways of signalling attacks
Probably would've been quicker and easier just to do pixel art but I always like to do things that hard way
going to become a twitter "transvestigator" but i will just say literally everyone is trans no matter what
dresses are cute, but I just don't find a situation to wear them much
Day 3 of βis this the estrogen working or am I so excited for it to work that Iβm ascribing random things to it?β
CW mildly lewd
I made out with my wife for like an hour straight earlier. It just felt really good and I felt connected to my body in a way that I normally donβt while weβre making out. Weβve never done that for that long before without it turning into sex but I super wanna do it again.
we finally did it lmao 
Back off I'll take you on - love my trans comrades more than anyone!
I love how long my hair has gotten. It's long enough to completely cover my ears, but not long enough to pull into a ponytail. I love how soft it is and how good it smells after I condition it. 
body image navel gazing, cw weight stuff
I was looking in the mirror after showering today and ADMIRING the small tummy I am now having. Thing is earlier in the week, I was pulling up my shirt and going 'uh oh, did my midsection gain too much weight?' No, you fucking rube, you goddamn shit idiot. My midsection actually looks great, the lil tummy rounds me out better than before, when I had a washboard-flat midriff I looked uncomfortably skinny. It's these lapses in judgement & perception that make me worry I'd be susceptible to an eating disorder... not because I do not adore my body, but because my brain tries to bully me about it anyway.
It's useful to have a partner around, you can trust their perception of you and lean on them for a second opinion when your brain is being silly. I recommend it tbh.
TERFs, olympic BS mentioned
What went on at the olympics is a prime example of how TERFs hurt all women, not just trans ones. They want to "protect" women in the same way fascists do - by regulating and policing the category of woman a social class and mandating the purity and vulnerability (and whiteness) of those within it.
Cis women who are not good enough women for them - because they're intersex, sex workers, POC, and many other things that TERFs hate - are going to end up hurt by them just as much as trans people.
Because TERFs aren't feminists, they're reactionaries coopting feminist language.
I know a while ago I said I was planning on making a bracelet, but I finally did it! There's a couple things wrong with it, but I'm still pretty happy with it. Its orange and purple.
Unfortunately I don't have pink or white so no trans bracelet for now, but this is nice 
Another good day of being a trans girl.
Muscles: weakened and shrinking
Body hair: thinning and lightening
Tiddies: growing
Unspeakably horny thoughts: raging
Skin: softened
yep, it's estrogen time
bad vibes
Out of left field, a family member sent me a message full of resentment and trans- and queerphobic hatred, insulting my mum as a whore and some other shit. I am doing relatively ok now but depressing that another family member is dead to me now
@ashinadash@hexbear.net operation curly hair care is a-go and going swimmingly. Armed with my jojoba oil and wide tooth comb, my hair has never looked and felt better!
... should I post some of my outfit design sketches on the trans mega?
