Final Fantasy XI

Final Fantasy XI is the eleventh numbered installment in the… Okay, you know what it is, I’m just going to tell you about one of the storylines!

During the Wings of the Goddess expansion, adventurers will be sent back in time to experience the events of the Crystal War, a cataclysmic event that is the foundation for conflicts of the modern-day timeline. Should an adventurer choose to serve the Kingdom of San d’Oria, they will be immersed in the story of the Young Griffons—a group of children who would see themselves knights, many of whom grow into prominent characters later in life.

Among the Young Griffons, the player will find Bistillot, a shy boy who doesn’t like to be seen. With his penchant for engineering, shy demeanor, and lack of combat potential, Bistillot prefers to spend his time inside of an orcish war machine that he was able to repair to working condition.

He is often seen before he is heard, with his signature phrase, “HAAAALLOOOOOOOOO” being used to hail the adventurer. Through the course of the story, Bistillot finds his way, even contributing to the war effort with his engineering skills.

However, when another member of the Young Griffons is kidnapped and taken to the present day, the adventurer must return to the present day and reunite with the Young Griffons’ present selves! The adventurer’s first contact in the present day is Bistillot. When the adventurer hears the signature “HAAAALLOOOOOOO,” Bistillot approaches the player, but what the player sees is… a woman?? She introduces herself as Bostilette, a “friend of Bistillot.”

After the rescue mission, Bostilette comes clean. She is, of course, the very same Bistillot who was a little boy twenty years earlier. She explains that she was very sick as a baby, so her parents gave her a boy’s name so that she would be stronger and survive the illness. Once she overcame the illness, she was comfortable to reclaim her name and gender. Well, that closes the book on that story, except… I’ve decided that’s bullshit!

I have unilaterally decided that Bostilette is trans, the sickness she had was dysphoria, she stayed in the orcish war machine because she was an egg, and I hope you all agree!

cw: autism sensory issues, genitals, shavingI must be cursed with the most unlucky body hair genes ever, I shave my bits and bobs and my butt and the next morning it's already grown back enough to have a little stubble and if I don't shave again that morning it ends up rubbing against my panties and really bothers me, like, bleh. kitty-birthday-sad Makes me want to just stop shaving so I don't have to deal with the sensory problems but then ✨gender ✨ happens and it gets at me the same amount, if not worse. I hate my brain sometimes doggirl-tears

had the urologist appointment (phallo related)Not too much to say. He was willing to work with me despite the potential difficulties and had ideas for how best to go about it. He even mentioned ideas for scrotoplasty stuff, which would be pretty much fantastic if that worked out. More than anything, he said that he and the main surgeon are quite stubborn when it comes to finding a way to get a patient what they want. It may end up not working out when the time comes, but I'm relieved they're both willing to modify and try different things to figure this out. They get to be some of the very few to say they did it, so they'll get something out of it too

I was once again assumed to be detransitioning. I am not a masculine person, yet I have struggled to feel even qualified for feminity ever since this thing forced onto my body. I hate that I've had to clarify this for two different people now. Disco Elysium -1 morale each time. I already feel unworthy of it, i don't need people calling it into question even if it's just the default assumed cis error.

anyway, good news is back on the menu

cw transphobia, struggle seshI was looking at some old struggle sessions Jack linked recently, and I guess because I am a digital self harmer, I went ahead and looked at the Trans Woman Dating "discussion" thread.

I Hate Cisnormativity I Hate Allosexuals I hate Absolutely Everything

While it's fun to see that the bearsite has improved by leaps and bounds, (huge amounts of accts in that thread are permabanned) it's not so nice to watch what had to happen. TC_69...

All done moving in.

My dad said a weird thing at the airport before I left: “Be a shepherd not a sheep.” Then he repeated it on a voicemail.
The flight was smooth, except for the beginning, I was brave about it.
Used the men’s restroom at the airport despite someone ma’aming me earlier because I am a coward.
Iron Bru is overrated.

That is all.

About 2 and a half years into HRT and I... am fucking hot. It's such a good feeling being even slightly more comfortable in my body than I was before.

And I'll keep getting hotter and hotter. aubrey-happy

lonely, yearning, confusion, sex

Feeling very frustrated by my sexuality right now. On the one hand, i need to have trust and a close emotional connection to someone in order to even experience sexual attraction to them in the first place. On the other hand, part of me is screaming for the strap.

Idk, im just tired and really aroused and lonely i guess. I dont want a dildo, i want a person to hold and be held by; i want to be partnered with someone(s), and have some kind of loving relationship(s), and have meaningful emotional connection and physical touch. But im also somehow both too much and too little for anyone, and need to fix myself before any of that can happen without it all ending in tears.

I like how all the right-wing attempts to create an alt-right pipeline for women have largely backfired. Classical Abby was laughed out of the room, pearlythings became a punching back, etc.

Then you see guys like Destiny and Asmongold. Cis men are apparently a lot easier to manipulate with a much lower bar of entry. You can look like a malnourished rat amped up on crushed Adderall with awful opinions and they’ll become your devoted cult members.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The tradwife tiktoks are probably the closest to alt right pipeline for women anyway.

Hung out with my parents (whom I'm still delaying on coming out to) just wearing a tshirt and suspected it was kinda obvious my chest has changed a bit. Afterwards, I decided to ask my brother for extenal confirmation, and he confirmed. So that's cool.

So a coworker is being hugely transphobic online. He doesn't say anything explicit at work, though he notably does leave the room whenever I or my trans coworkers enter the office. We are a culturally-specific organization that works with a lot of trans individuals. Leadership is saying that because he's just saying this stuff outside of work on social media, it's fine.

How do you work with someone knowing they hate you in their personal life?

Sometimes you read a Whipping Girl quote and it's like

I think this is best captured by the psychological term "cognitive dissonance," which describes the mental tension and stress that occur in a person's mind when they find themselves holding two contradictory thoughts or views simultaneously - in this case, subconsciously seeing myself as female while consciously dealing with the fact that I was male.

and I understand what she's actually talking about, I can see through the bullshit fog, but fr this cisnormative bullshit is wearing on my mind.

This gender dissonance can manifest itself in a number of ways. Sometimes it felt like stress or anxiousness, which led to marathon battles with insomnia. Other times, it surfaced as jealousy or anger at other people who seemed to enjoy taking their gender for granted.

Indeed, how dare they... their genders...

dissociation/dysphoriaI don't understand what's happening. Things should not actually be this hard for me. I should be okay. But I don't feel okay. Its wrong. I feel disconnected. And then I'll be reminded of the wrongness. I'll speak, or feel my body, or hear "my" name. I feel like I'm in a dream. But this isn't a dream.

spoiler self harm, scars I have a very strong desire to sh. I have the accidental stuff from shaving, it hurts but I want more. There's always more. I'm somehow 13 days free from using something sharp. I can't sh. I don't want to keep getting more scars. I'm already upset about what I have. :::
