As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

me
ok you’re back in it
It seems that all the working on my appearance has paid off because someone called me hot today! That’s the first time I’ve ever had that happen.
Problem is I have literally no idea how to flirt so I kinda just smiled and walked away. What the fuck are you supposed to do when that happens

congratulations! sorry you feel it’s marred a bit by events but you should still be incredibly proud of yourself.
proud of u
Congratulations are in order nonetheless, you did well to get it
good work friend
Some guy hit on me in the grocery store today and it was so off-putting that I’m reconsidering my sexuality
Me: I could be bi
Man: Hello
Me: Save me Sappho
I should have gotten on the dating apps way sooner, I’m having such a fun time flirting with trans and queer cuties all day. Currently talking to a trans woman who’s nearly twice my age because my higher power was smiling on me while I was swiping that day.
Lots of libs though. So many libs.
Yeah it’s pretty disappointing how many trans libs there are
It’s a coin flip whether a trans person is a based communist or lib. (Landing on the side is rightwing grifter). This is still a better ratio than the cis though.
Dating apps seem to work a lot better for the queers than for the straights.
Yeah, all my cis straight coworkers complaining about how they can’t get laid to save their lives. They’re not ugly, they just act like cis straight dudes. Meanwhile I’m a full grown adult with a curfew (gotta love sober living) and I get so many matches I get overwhelmed by the number of titty pics I receive in a day.
I just don’t know how to explain to them that all they have to do is want to work on themselves a little bit and they’d probably do a lot better
gender cw : dysphoria, discussion of essentialism
spoiler
I don’t have a gender , I used to identify as transmasc but don’t relate to masculinity so I think agender is right. Don’t like being perceived as or being a woman but wouldn’t like being a man either. I hate the ‘born this way’ narrative, we shouldn’t have to justify why we’re trans. I feel a lot of research about gender being “hardwired” just reinforces bio essentialism under the name of ‘acceptance’ , it’s always agab language and treating sex as an absolute truth. i didn’t fully realize everything until recently , like I said earlier trans people don’t need justification for why they exist.
spoiler
Yeah, anytime people bring up the “actually, trans brainwaves are more in line with their preferred gender than their assigned one 🤓”
I’m like… Stfu? Who fucking cares what my brainwaves look like? That data cannot be used for good.

I’m reading Trans/Rad/Fem by Talia Bhatt and it’s so good, but also how do you go about your day normally after realising by being a trans woman you’re a revolutionary in a war against the heterosexual occupation of gender that has lasted over five thousand years?

random trans core memory that just popped back into my head out of nowhere
i remember laying in bed very late one night in my late teens having just admit to myself that i actually did like the idea of wearing women’s clothing and i was freaked the fuck out because i had zero idea what on earth to do with this information other than to sleep on it because there was nothing i could do about it at 11 pm so I decided to sleep on it. I then woke up and promptly forgot about it for years and continued to be cis for some reason
Mine was coming down off mushrooms and realizing I hated my entire wardrobe (which was on the floor in a depression pile).
I didn’t go to bed, I woke my partner up. Who told me you’re tripping, go to bed.
Two days later she was helping me pick out a dress :)
Hi rayne!
Haven’t seen you in months. How have you been?
I have a memory of being like 6 or 7 doing a lucky dip at a school fete. There was a blue boys lucky dip and a pink girls one. A girl I knew did the pink and got a fantastic giant pretend emerald ring and I got a stupid little red plastic biplane (wasn’t even cool). I remember having a tantrum and being so mad I threw it on the ground and stomped it breaking it.
Wonder why that stuck in my memory somehow and I can barely remember anything else from that time.
Wish I knew how to stop my brain from shutting down. I get so overwhelmed by envy and attraction and then I literally can’t speak
Being around feminine people is a source of dysphoria. Like, I don’t know how to handle the emotions. I just want to ask how they do that, all the time. I feel male-gazey, I feel gross.
Wendy? You’re back~
I’m back! I am back on my old account until I earn (come up with) a new username. I don’t remember why I deleted my account but I’m rolling with it
is good to be back tho! i am growing more confident in my enby-ness and enjoying pride month
That’s awesome, I’m so proud of you for getting more confident! I hope you got to hook up with some irl LGBT groups. It’d be nice if you were to make friends with girls (trans femme or cis), I swear there’s nothing mysterious about us lol
dysphoria
Being around feminine people is a source of dysphoria.
Real :/ reminds me of what I could have had. Should have had. Instead I’m cursed to live in this husk. Very shitty feelings. god I wish I was them instead.
One specific thing is it always reminds me of how big I am. I’m literally like twice most of their size.
Finding jobs suuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks
We were a little naughty and added vegan popcorn chicken to Friday Rice
impressing him on the first date by taking him to a coffee shop while i’m wearing all white and swinging around my drink recklessly without spilling a drop somehow
I don’t get the reference but that would be pretty
it’s a reference to how i’m a clumsy bitch who drinks too much coffee who just bought a white dress and would fucking cry if she spilt any on it
