When I start getting recognized at a store or a restaurant, I stop going. I want to be anonymous to you, retail worker. You don't have to make small talk, it's alright, I remember my retail manager being on my ass about "being friendly and approachable" and how much I resented it. Unless you really are just naturally outgoing, I guess, but even then.

Feeling bad leaving not supporting a trans communist friend who’s going through a rough time at the moment because I don’t have any spoons. Feel really useless, ugh.
all this talk of levels has made me think about how I've never thought much about my levels even checked them after the mandatory blood tests
(maybe I should)
I'm pretty sure so long as you're above a certain baseline it doesn't really matter. I don't really think about my levels that much either beyond making sure they're not causing problems though.
I need to go cute clothes shopping. I have a lot of normal boring almost-unisex clothes that I look super cute in, and some dresses that wouldn't look out of place in a church, and a lotta flannel and sports bras. I need to have a cute, modern arc.
OKAY NERDS
Who has some good GL webtoons? Can be manhua, manwha, donghua... american comic stuff, weeb comics, anything works but I need good quality comix about girls kissing.
EDIT: I ended up compiling a list of slop I like.
list of finished series
-
I Love Amy by Unun - sad doggirl tomboy gets dragged around by a yandere stereotype. Pretty good.
-
After the Curtain Call by ASSAM - uh this one is ok I guess, been a while, some TV/actress slop.
-
Always Human by walkingnorth/arielnorth - transhumanist lesbians, it's sort of about disability as a subtheme. Good stuff.
-
Blooming Sequence by Lee Eul - more film/TV/actress slop, been ages but thought it was okay.
-
Getting to Know Grace by Seo Rim/Mokma - ohhhh this dreary gothic elizabethian maid/lady romance kinda slaps. Love the art.
-
Ghosts of Greywoods by LetINK - weirdly the sams as above, also very good. I like LetINK's second series more but it is unfinished.
-
It Would Be Great If You Didn't Exist by Carbonara - this tanks in the last third but the art is cute and the leads have such an excellent love/hate.
-
Mojito by Fute - I forget most of this but thought it was decent. Solid art, I liked both leads.
-
Soulmate by Ke Ran Bing/Wenzhi Lizi - one of my favs, the time travel and chronic illness shit, it just hits. Love it.
here is some shit that's unfinished but I like
-
Aerial Magic by walkingnorth - nooooo why ;_;
-
Hella Good by Chiipi - this never updates but I like it okay.
-
Love, Lila by YREZU - I want these two to kiss but it NEVER updates last I checked.
-
Re-Blooming by LetINK - NOOOOOO WHYYYYYYYYY LETINK HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME REEEEEEEEEEE
MY FUCKING BELOVED WHYYYYYY
-
What Are The Chances by Chantsky - haha look it's an age gap, sure hope that's not a trend wow, that wouldn't be cute. Chantsky is in college or something so it never updates.
-
How Do We Relationship by Tamifull - I have been meaning to reread this, the one yuri manga I have liked.
So dreams, they're kinda kooky. Mine are usually full of like weird senseless gore or uh computers ig. How long did it take for your dream self (if you dream as yourself ever) to start matching your irl self?
This is kind of a self perception or conceptualisation thing I guess, I think my dreams better reflected my image the more I replaced pronouns and titles for myself internally. I never really dreamt of myself as a boy, instead I was a weird sort of amorphous blob, like the Reincarnated As A Slime protagonist or something. It took several years for the me in my dreams to match the me_irl, which is great because now my brain thinks I should have weird sex shit or just be topless in dreams half the time
I have no idea if anyone else has experiences like this, maybe most people don't dream in first person or just always dreamed as their actual gender. Me I never had dreams about being A Girl, Idk :>
If I got covid from going on the bus to a makeup store where I didn’t even buy anything I’m gonna be kinda mad.
Whining about work
I'm so tired of burning myself out at work for a salary that's about 15% shy of breaking even.
So I'm hunting for a new job, which is its own sort of nightmare. The only companies that are hiring full-remote SREs or technical analysts at a pay rate I can live with are either banks or businesses that would require me to get a government security clearance, neither of which I want to do.
busy day. drove down to see my parents, helped in their garden for a bit, visited grandfather, took the opportunity to clean my car as my dad has a jetwash and polish and stuff, went out to eat, then played rummikub with my mum
Arranged a consultation for facial hair removal, because right now I have money I can spend, and I don't know when that'll next be the case. The provider also explicitly talks about trans women on their website, so I hope that they will be good. I really fucking hate my facial hair and beard shadow, glad to hopefully see it gone soon.
Today I remembered how much I love hanfu. I should hanfupost in here some time.
I had some valerian root tea and an edible. I'm hoping it kicks in soon as I wanna go to bed early tonight. And by early I mean by 1:30ish instead of like 3 or later like I've been doing the last few nights
Finished Little Blue Encyclopedia by Hazel Jane Plante, had read the introduction yesterday and then read the 170ish pages tonight.
Really good, gay transbian unrequited love, bittersweet and touching. Loved it, haven't been moved by much in years.. Had a wee cry
the bimbo estrogen strikes again:
i got a set of bralettes off of amazon that were SUPER comfy but the straps were just too long and didn't fit right. took me multiple days of telling myself i'll get around to stitching them shorter before i realized that i was just wearing the damn things backwards fucking hell
So many fucking libs showing there asses for the the vapid empty souls completely sidling Gaza and accusing lefty people of “muh division” “can’t get things done like that” Im going to scream
I got this small like, Japanese(?) cat plushie and my god this thing is amazing. Need more plush in my lfie.
Idiot question but how do you nerds read pronoun priority here? I always assume the first one is the primary, though I sometimes swap back and forth between them. I have long discussed bear website goings-on with my wife enough that this is worth considering tbh.
