the trans posting squad is gonna easily break 1k comments

I managed to meet some local trans-ppl. I just had to go to one event, talk to the guy who seemed like an organizer, out myself to him. Get a number for a telegram account from him, write to that account and introduce myself,and then get invited to a weekly get together that's organized over whatsapp.

They were very nice, and I am happy I put in the effort. One is even looking for a roommate. One of the better things to happen to me recently.

Also: is that the normal ammount of effort required, or is this place just special?

Good morning cute trans people in my phone~ I am feeling very eepy today

the trans megathreads are reaching a critical mass, soon the world will kneel

I started hrt over a year and a half ago and prog 8 months ago, which has been great! But now the clothes I bought a year ago don't fit cause my ass, tits and thighs are too rocking 😫 which, sure, is a nice problem to have but those clothes were cute...

This is kind of brainwormed and kind of weird, but idk maybe writing about it will help me work through things. So in like 2018-2021 I was more involved in local organizing than any other time. I lived in a pretty rural place, and the only org we had was DSA, so I joined DSA. I can't say that we were building the revolutionary vanguard or anything, but I do think that I did a lot of good work and met really amazing people. It was a really positive thing in my life for a while for both myself and others. I stopped all of that during COVID, mostly because my own life fell apart.

Almost 4 years later I'm doing a lot better, living in a new city with a new degree and new sex hormones. But I'm not involved in the local political scene at all. I don't think I would be useful if I joined an org. For one thing, most of the work we did involved in talking to people. I don't want to go around as a non-passing trans woman talking to strangers all day. I'm probably more shy and awkward than ever these days, even though I'm happier, because I honestly have no idea how I'm perceived. I don't think even liberal people are receptive to me.

But also I'm not sure that I care. Like the local left orgs are involved in a lot of causes. They talk about queer liberation during pride month, and the next month it's on the tenant rights or whatever. Maybe Im a bad person, but I don't care that much about the other stuff. I feel that my community, as in trans people, are under significant threat right, and I want to do everything I can to keep the people I care about safe. I don't have room in my life to worry about others besides them

I know that's not intersectional, and that some members of other marginalized groups are also trans, but Im not sure that matters because honestly I don't trust most of the activists I know to do anything for me if things got really bad. Like sure, they'll use my pronouns when they're not they/theming me, and sometimes they'll be extra friendly because my existence makes them feel diverse or whatever. But they wouldn't shelter me, or break the law for me, or die for me, like I would for the other trans women in my life.

Im sure if I joined all the local orgs I would meet based queer comrades who did have my back. But that's pretty much the only draw for me. And should I really join a group who allegedly wants to do serious work only to use it as a social club?

I'm a little overwhelmed right now, in a good way. I'm going to be a woman. I'm going to look like a woman. People are going to look at me and think "damn, she's cute". Maybe even be ~~jealous~~ envious of me. I never thought that'd be a thing for me.

I can't wait to start E

whenever i post in this sub the two ghosts look cute together in my comment history ngl

Voice training is hard I'm surprised by how much of the info is new to me, it's almost like my past experience with my voice harms me when it comes to this.

Trans mega just eating all the other megas at this point

What if, hypothetically, the trans mega could get more comments than the news mega

Feeling good, today was a productive day

I had a good opportunity to come out to one of my friends last night, but didn't. "coming out" would probably have just been saying I wish I wasn't a guy sometimes and maybe asking for they/them pronouns.

:cri: like actually how am I going to be able to do this, especially with family. I just want to curl up in bed and stay there.

Looking for recommendations for trans/queer narratives. I've recently watched I saw the TV glow and played Celeste and am looking for more.

I am unlikely to read a book, just being honest here. If there's an audiobook available maybe.

probably an uncontroversial take here but i think that the way people talk down about pumpkin spice lattes is somewhat sexist

Helped with move the other day and still able to lift things at almost 3 months into hrt. 😎 Curious how the next move will be though. 😰

Thinking about how much happier I was, in general and with my body pre puberty. Really peaked. I wonder if second puberty will make me feel that way again.

To be clear this is not sad posting

lol lmao

Almost forgot to take my Cypro.

I am now reading my university texts out loud for voice training, and it really is exhausting after a short time, but I can still manage it wthout my resonance slipping into my chest, for a paragraph or two.

how come there are SO MANY pretty girls out there and i am not allowed to kiss all of them

I was really starting to get jiggly butt and thighs, and it was nice as hell. I even got some new jorts that fit me super well.

But then I started puking every day, prolly cuz I was smoking too much weed (CHS), and I have lost 10lbs over the last month. My jorts no longer fit very well.

I'm on week 6 of HRT, I feel like shit still boy-moding. I need to level up my girl perk tree.

Love meeting other trans communists

Summer is fun cause I can't tell if the people are staring at me cause I'm trans, or oggling cause I'm finally comfortable enough to show some skin. Either way it's a weird feeling.

Tried buying new glasses today, and the store assistant, when I ask her for help, sends me to the mens section. I do not have new glasses.
