Meredith, one of my other hamsters || Trans Megathread from May 12th, 2025 to May 18th, 2025
(hexbear.net)
Hi! I've been extremely tired this week and nearly forgot that I was hosting one so I'm writing this last minute! I couldn't think of anything so I'm going to write about one of my hamsters who is not Biggs; Meredith
Meredith was another hamster of mine from a few years ago during the early days of COVID, and she was the absolute sweetest little creature I had ever met. Very friendly, very gentle. She loved exploring anywhere I put her into and never bit me ~~okay she did once ever~~. She was an absolute sweetheart and bundle of love and was with me during some of the rougher parts of my life
She unfortunately died very suddenly out of the blue one day at a terribly young age showing no symptoms of anything wrong with her prior, which breaks my heart to this very day
I never had her as long as any other hamster of mine but I don't think I had any other hamster touch my heart in quite the same way. I miss you, girl

Thursday when I looked I felt mixed and numb
Friday when I looked I wanted to die.
Today when I looked it’s feeling more like Thursday.
I don’t want to go out tbh, I don’t want people to see me.
This is the longest I’ve looked at myself in years and sometimes from some angles I look fine…but I still look like some awkward thing in the middle.
My lips and smile are so weird and idk how I would even fix it.
My hair is…idk how to even describe it.
I dunno…I won’t say it feels hopeless, but I feel pretty lost at what to do.
That's pretty good progress! You're feeling better than Friday, that's good! Maybe as the days roll on, you'll feel less numb again and start to feel more at peace and happy. But you've been through Friday low and come out the other side.
Hair can grow or be cut, you can use products, hair is a fun one to experiment and play with! You might look pretty cute with french braids, plus having a partner do your hair is a really nice activity. Maybe your wife can curl your hair or braid it. Even sleeping in braids can give you fun bouncier curls the next morning, no need to go out with them.
There are options for lips if you feel it'll help you be in your body more. There's the simpler options of lipstick and lipliner. As you continue on with E it will continue to change your face, just slower. Or you can get filler injected, aim for more subtle over big big look - it doesn't take a lot to change your lips. Your smile is, I'm sure, quite charming. This is useless advice but try not to get in your head about your smile. Smizing is a meme (the wrinkles in the corner of the eye from a genuine candid smile) but you could try it and see how you feel.
