Limestone is a common type of sedimentary rock which I find uncommonly interesting! It's mostly calcium carbonate, which is also what eggshells π₯, seashells π, and pearls π¦ͺ are made out of.
In places where it rains a lot, limestone erodes easily, which results in simply gorgeous landscapes such as:
HαΊ‘ Long Bay in Vietnam
Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park in Madagascar
The Li River in China
Additionally, the world's longest (Mammoth) and deepest (~~Veryovkina~~ Krubera is once again the world's deepest cave, thank you to SockOlm for pointing that out) cave systems are both found in limestone formations
Mammoth Cave in the United States
Veryovkina Cave in Georgia/Abkhazia/Russia (disputed territory)

EDIT: okay thanks for the "congrats" everyone but i think i should clarify that i haven't even done like, anything at all to prep for this or research anything, this is just me realizing "i could probably start making those phone calls at this point in my transition". didn't mean to state that like, anything really happened to me beyond hitting the 1 year HRT mark, almost
spoiler
So happy for you! I am very early in recovery right now and already love my pussy so much. It is everything I wanted it to be.Also try to start hair removal as quickly as possible! It can bump you up on the list depending on your surgeon.
ugh, the hair removal, right. I have to go get a procedure done BEFORE i can get a procedure done
can i go get the hair removal done before a bottom surgery consultation? like if I ask, can they just get rid of "what probably needs to be gotten rid of" before the surgeon actually marks what has to go?
Sent you a dm!
Congrats!!
(i haven't actually done anything yet, i've just ALMOST hit the 1 year HRT mark and realized that the only thing stopping me from getting on an SRS waiting list is my own laziness. I could start calling right now if i really wanted though)
You should! Where I live, once you get referred to the official gender clinic the time starts ticking to bottom surgery (like if you said you want that during intake). You should start calling around! Wait lists up here are somewhere between 1 year to 2 years from being in the clinic to surgery day. There's other bull shit you have to do before the clinic, the wait list for their intake is a year on its own and they have BS about wanting to be on HRT for a minimum of a year (or two? Can't remember).
oh I know. I'll probably talk with my therapist about it first but literally the thought of "you can start now" just hit me like a couple days ago
plus i know how horrifyingly long the waitlists are. i can only hope that mine isn't THAT long
(anything under 1.5 years i'll count as a win)
omgoshhhhh congratssss!!!!! thats awesome
