Used the women's restroom for the first time. It was at a UU church hosting a trans lives festival, so definitely a safe place to do so.
religion/mention of religious trauma
Not religious/spiritual whatsoever (hardline (dialectical) materialist), but I'll admit that this Unitarian Universalist hosted fest is the first time that I haven't felt anxious presenting femme around cis people. Got a lot of compliments for my makeup from some kids. It warms my heart to see young people being raised in love and acceptance. Having been raised up evangelical/in right-wing areas, I've never seen that before in person.
Now that estrogen has made me pretty happy, I picked up another hobby I had before my constant depressions and spent 4 hours writing today. I expected to feel mentally tired and was ready to turn off my brain and scroll through slop afterwards, but somehow it had the opposite effect and I feel amazingly energized
Today I realized I'm a liberal individual so I'm rectifying this immediately
Oh also a friend asked about HRT
My winter girl rot era is over, my summer happy girl era is beginning.
Real! I started running again this week for that reason.
So i somehow managed to play Undertale before getting spoilered and
ofc i ended up accidentally murdering Toriel. And i told my emotional support puppygirl about it and she said "you can reset the game, you know? The game remembers these things." So i was in the final corridor, at the savepoint after the flashback to the house in the ruins, and that had gotten me all teary-eyed, so i hit reset and started all over again and all this brought me even closer to crying and i did everything right and spared her this time and that fucking flower goes "i know you murdered her, you're not the only one who can change reality" and all that and i just broke down. JFC. Even Disco Elysium didn't fuck with me as hard as this.
Undertale holds up tbh, I was watching gf play it a bit last night and I have all the music stuck in my head now
characters all having white gloves harknes back to minstral shows and therefore liking any character besides Big the Cat or Omega is problematic
Mario is Italian American that's it's own can of worms
Social needs are garbage. Why can't I just like hanging out and talking with people but not need to. It just hurts when I'm not getting "enough" (whatever my brain decides that means). Maybe soon my brain will break again and be okay being alone for a while. There's definitely been times where I feel like I've been fine without anyone really but that has not been the case lately :/
Also all this would be easier if I was just better at it probably why I feel this way tbh. I'm too quiet and too boring. Or maybe, even worse, I don't even know the actual issue.
Same kinda
Something something hedgehog's dilemma
I cant stop thinking about someone i know burning a book they have definitely not read, while talking about how 'problematic' the book is, how disfusting the artwork is, etc
gah! Anti-intellectualism and the 'left', name a more ivonic duo
Similar but a bit different, people defending a book without understanding the worst parts of it. Its disgusting and I can't stop either. Maybe I should write out a thing and send it to someone or something.
A question I would like to hear many peoples answer to
spoiler
What do you want?
Interpret however
I want pizza ice cream burger
question about injections
So, cored my first vial of E after 9 doses. I have two extra, but there's still a couple doses (3-4) left in the original bottle. I had sterilzed the top before inserting the needle (and used a sterile needle of course), so will it be safe to continue using as long as there's no signs of contamination?
What size needle are you using to draw? I've used the same vile for nearly half a year without the top being damaged, but I used 30 gauge insulin needles to draw and inject. Idk why doctors recommend using separate draw and injection needles, in my experience it's really not worth it.
We use a seperate draw needle to minimize needstick injury (not as big as deal when you're already injecting yourself), also the bigger gauge makes it faster, and the most important reason is that after a needle is used once it's dulled so it hurts more (also more risk of contaminate on a new needle, even if you washed properly).
Oh damn, was I doing a health hazard for 2 years and just got lucky...XD my bad
well not necessarily... insulin comes in the same type of vial and uses those exact fixed needles, but slightly different risk profile yeah
Sometimes, it feels like the only difference between your average liberal feminist and your average TERF is how mask-off they are. It really is just civility vs. rudeness.
Liberal feminists will hold the same essentialist, harmful reactionary beliefs as TERFs but just won't flat-out say it and might even feign LGBTQ+ acceptance too.
