I work 60 hours a week, it's too fucking much. This is only sustainable because I don't have pets, nevermind children, and I refuse to have an irl social life (I ain't missing much in this town, it's a whole thing don't worry about it). It's not even sustainable, I'm only doing this for 12 more months

cw : bedroom stuffso, yeah, there's still tweaking to do w/ the injections, BUT it's been fucking years since sex felt this good. like, i actually want to be doing it, but i'm also not having a hypersexual phase. which is nice, can get rly exhausting. but yeah, i was thinking about how in like, my mid-20's sex was still enjoyable w/ the right partner & then at some point it just kinda stopped being a thing in my brain. there's Trauma™ there, for sure, but i knew something else was up, too, when it wasn't really happening w/ my partner cuz like, this is the comfiest i've ever been w/ another person. baby steps, basically; i'm just taking it as a nice, fun bonding thing for now. the kinky stuff will have to wait a bit more still.

i miss working in a restaurant kinda sometimes, my food bill was so low because i ate two of my three meals a day at work lol. but also don't miss the 14 hour days and constant stress lmao

i do miss the opportunity to experiment with food on someone else's budget for sure though. wish i'd made copies of all the recipes though, there were some good ones. at least i still have my desserts written somewhere

i hate insurance so much/surgeryWas just given a final ‘decision’ after multiple appeals and meetings with a lawyer that I have to pay for my ffs out of pocket.

I specifically paid to get on a decent insurance plan while planning out this surgery and it turns out that due to opaque laws, they have an exclusion for all “transsexual care” in my plan. I will still be getting the surgery(in two months!) but this just made me so sad to see that this is still commonly the state of care for us.

I lived as a transwoman from ~2020-2022 and then detransitioned out of my own volition. My family and friends were supportive, it just didn't feel quite right. Living as a trans woman felt the same as a cis man, except it took a lot more effort to present female than male (especially since I'm quite tall), so I went back to being a cishet guy.

But I'd be lying if I said I'm 100% confident in my gender identity. I don't think I'll ever transition again, but maybe I'll try drag at some point.

My parents brought up the recent Olympics stuff. BUT IT WAS GOOD OMG?! They thought she had xy and still thought transphobes were being ridiculous, removed some people for sharing their bigotries. Also pointed out the media story changing. Super comforting. Was worried about how they'd react to the story, obviously.

Edit: just have been thinking about coming out a lot and this makes me feel more confident in it going well.

even more weirder sex posting, cw trauma discussion again
spoiler I'm sorry for flooding the mega with all this gay sex stuff. I can stop if you want. I just like gathering my thoughts here and replies are good Idk. I love you trans mega. This whole, "being emotionally present and involved in sex" bit, it's kinda hard and kinda sucks. Nobody warned me about this!!!

Without getting into the gritty stuff, a recent volcel violation ended up not going that well, nothing serious just minor communication flubs, bit of old emotions, stuff. I completely and utterly flipped my shit though, I was like 200% mad, agitated and wanting to be alone and suffering a lot bocchi-cry

Partly I think it's because it reminded me of every single post-sex with my ex, which always sucked and left me feeling gross and ashamed and shit. I do not ever want to be in that space again. I think I was also just utterly galled that I've put so much time and work into getting through all this stuff and being clear on what I want, and things STILL did not fucking work out! How fucking dare!! I don't fucking wanna have bad sex again goddamnit aubrey-rage-cry I fucking quit!!!

As wifey says, you cannot expect literally all sex to be great and go well, which makes sense. Sometimes stuff is just gonna not work. But it proves that I was right to not instantly throw myself back into it and try something super kinky or whatever; I do in fact need to take it slow, because Idk, this is the first time in my entire life that I am in my body the way I want to be, sexually, so stuff is gonna come up like this. There will probably be more instances of past baggage rearing their head as I move forward with this. Just have to take it easy.

...I really wish I had better emotional regulation, god I'm such a fucking loser when it comes to flipping out aubrey-pain :::

Sorry I keep posting about this.

(cw Dysphoria)Okay I'm feeling way worse than I thought, I want to just curl up in a ball on my bed and cry once I get home but I still have tutoring to do so I can't for another 3.5 hours at least.

I hate that just a bit of facial hair being worse than normal can make me spiral like this. Especially when I was and should be feeling great right now. But instead it's infecting how I feel about myself in general, I can't see the woman I normally do when I look in a reflection, I look at photos that I usually love and feel disgusted about my jaw and other features, and the nails I painted to feel a bit better during work are just making me feel worse.
