As a child, I thought Neptune was the coolest fucking planet ever. It was blue. A gas giant. Didn't have a ridiculous "your anus" type name, and had some crazy facts such as having winds almost twice the speed of sound, an atmosphere full of ice and frozen methane. I'll leave the rest to the wiki article

Today, I still think Neptune is the coolest celestial body in the solar system. Young sodi had the right idea.

What's your favorite celestial body? Can be outside the solar system. No rules on this. Except for choosing Sagittarius A. Fuck Sagittarius A.

Bonus content: sonorification of emitted frequencies of planets and bodies. In other words, these are what rhe frequencies of various space things would sound like.

Earth's frequencies sounding like birds (space) is most terrifying thing ever and I hate it. There should not be birds in space.

yeah it wasn't fun. I was super conciliatory and let them ask me a bunch of super personal questions in person and i really regret not asserting myself more at that time. they're libs so not as nervewracking, but still not fun.

    The personal questions scare me (sexuality, surgery... idek what else), so does questions about the past, "but you had no signs", "how do you know" type stuff. Also I have a couple much younger siblings which makes it all hard. I- I have no idea how to respond to this from them especially.

    I'm also worried about them asking me how long I've known for, since I started growing my hair out two years ago and have been opposed to getting it cut for that long. I can't imagine they wouldn't be hurt by me not telling them sooner.

    Mine are chuds so :/ kms.

    girl you are looking into a crystal ball of my past. they asked about sexuality (are you breaking up with your partner), surgery (it seems so permanent), you didn’t show any signs (i reminded them of me stealing women’s clothing and being shamed for it). i’m sorry about the siblings, thankfully mine were a lot more go with the flow than my parents.

    , i don’t think they get to have it both ways (as much as they will try). if they react poorly AND also get offended by how long it took, well you have your reasons right there! you got this eggnog, it will suck but hopefully let you live life more comfortably and openly

    Tragically I don't have a sign as good as that. I laid in bed a lot as a teen wishing I was a woman... but whatever. I will probably just talk about how it makes me feel now and my dysphoria over time ig. Siblings, the bigger issue is they're young and my parents are going to be "protective".

    Yea, very good point, and probably something I will bring up if they do react poorly. Its- I really don't think I will every be comfortable being out with my family.
