Another breakthrough, folks. We can't stop winning
Got around to watching I Saw the TV Glow on Saturday night.
I loved the movie, but like it wasn't as emotionally devastating as I'd hoped it would be. Maybe I'm just busted? Idk like I definitely connected with the film on a lot of its parts/aspects. There were even certain parts of the film where I already knew what the main character was going to say before it was said.
spoiler
The part on the bleachers where Tera/Maddy was asking Isabel about her sexuality hit a little too close and I literally answered "I don't know" out loud before Isabel did.
Idk maybe I'm more emotionally locked up than I thought or maybe my expectations were too high or maybe I was just too ready to be analytical instead of just taking the movie as it comes.
I'll re-watch it again, probably soon. I'll definitely remember it as one of my favorite movies, I identify far too personally with the text for it to not be; I just wanted to share the connection with it that many trans people are saying they felt with it, and I'm a little disheartened that I feel like I didn't connect in the same way that some people did.
The fact that literally all the major boss fights have an npc summon and multiple questlines relies on you summoning npc clearly shows that Fromsoft wants you to summon.
More moderate cognitohazards
Paul Takes The Form Of A Mortal Girl is doing a bit. It's trying to get me to deem it an egg story, to pidgeonhole Paul as a trans woman (he was assigned male at birth) and declare it all to be an egg thing. But yo, what the fuck? He lived full-time as a woman with his terf gf Diane and when he lost that he got miserable... so he goes back to being a guy (nominally) and having casual sex again. While he is miserable about this state of affairs, he's also extremely detached, knows he can get anything from his waiter whom he's fucking with "his lost boy routine". Idk who Paul is or what he wants. He just seems to move through whatever situations or relationships and meld his dumb ass to whoever he currently likes or fucks.
Fuckin'... despite being able to change literally every permutation of his body to match any gender presentation, Paul is still hopelessly detached and can only use his shifting as a shield, or to blend with someone. Left to his own devices, he just falls back on whatever is easiest... huh...
I am at like 60% and this might still be beyond me to comprehend, which doesn't feel good. Almost desperate enough to consult Goodreads reviews, but given all the stuff I'm pretty sure the reviews will be unfunny.
We're approaching 300 comments on Wednesday. They only perceived a fraction of our power before. Now they are coming to realize how POWERFUL we truly are!
Playing Celeste (I must have grabbed it in a bundle thousands of years ago) to see if it's actually good
Thinking about how I might possibly still have a little bit of time where if I was on hrt my bone structure might change a little tiny bit a completely normal amount (I'm guessing cis people think about this every day)
As an NB I feel happy with how I look without hormones and I think I’d feel happy (er?) on hormones, but idk. I’m on blockers atm.
Scratch that. I was not particularly happy pre-blockers (I was happy with how I looked tho), but I’m not sure if I’m happier now bc of blockers or actual self improvement. Can I get a control for my experiment called life?
I like how many mods this comm has
I'm gettin' that woke blodd
I bought some hair removal creme("andmetics" brand, just bought the first one I could find) and tried it, and the result was that there is no result.
Details:
spoiler
First test on my left arm, 10 minutes left on (the maximum recommended duration), and afterwards no change, not a single hair fell out and I also had no skin irritation at all.
Second test on my right arm, upwards of 15 minutes left on, and with a far thicker layer of cream on it. Also no result, skin is possibly slightly irritated, but I am not sure.
I guess it's not strong enough if you don't have cis-women hair? But it also didn't cause any irritation, like the manual said it would.
I will research what is an actually good brand and try again. And what the conditions on it not working are.
I got a little enamel pin that is this emoji . It's soooooo cute. I pinned it to my hat and wore it out today to my therapy session. I also went in full fem mode skirt and girls t shirt and sports bra with some "bust enhancers". I think I looked really fuckin cute.
Wanna see me do 175 ~~km~~post/h? [insert missing emoji here]
:')
Someday I'll learn to tuck, maybe, if I can be fucked at all and ever want to stop wearing jeans all the time. Yoga pants? More like, not outside the fucking house pants.
>try chilling with a comfy book in pride month
>>>protag has queerphobic parents who get large amounts of screentime
Okay look, right, here's a hot new rule I want all writers, directors, gamedevs, and more to follow. If you make things, this is your new directive: If you are going to put queerphobic parents in your story, they must die violently on-screen. Comfy reading.
and we are back
Sometimes I wonder if my vibes based approach to transition is right, or if there is even another spproach to something so personal.
I feel like I have been stagnating, though I can also imagine that I should take it as it comes, and do things when I feel ready for them.
We are just 100 away from closing pride month out with 666
