Hi Everyone! I'm planning on adding stuff here but first enjoy your new weekly mega <3

Join our public Matrix server!

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

I don't think I know what it's like to be worried about. People have literally never worried about me. I can say concerning shit, do concerning shit, and nobody ever says anything. If they worry, they certainly don't tell me.

Iowkey I think I could get pretty bad without anyone noticing. apparently I have sorcerer-level abilities to fooling people into not realizing that I'm one bad text away from lighting my hair on fire agony-acid

I might just embrace being fucking unknown, it's like you had your chance to ask a goddamn question. I give up

Thyme should be pronounced how it is spelled since time is already a word.
Do you agree?

My friend kind of disappeared on me. We started out by dating, and it was great for the most part. We did decide to just be friends after a while, but then we were actually friends and it was so nice. We lived near each other, and would get together at least like once a week for the last few months. It was usually pretty casual, like we'd get coffee or work out together or he'd come over for dinner. Sometimes we'd end up spending the whole weekend together tho. It was honestly so nice having a friend like across the street, it's been years since I've had that.

He has family living in a different state, and visited them over the holidays. The day he flew out, we got breakfast at some diner he likes and then I drove him to the airport. That was the last time I heard from him. I expected him to be busy with family and stuff, and I wasn't to surprised not to hear from him at first. I did ask him how the trip was going a couple of times. Anyway, know it's been a month and I haven't heard a thing. None of my friends who know him have heard anything either. He hasn't posted anything to social media in a while either. The trip was supposed to be over by now I thought.

I reached out to one of his friends, who I don't know as well. I think I fucked that up tho. Like I was way too direct in asking about him and I think I weirded her out. I should have been smarter, but I was just worried.

I mean he doesn't owe me anything, but it would be nice to have a little closure. Like I have no idea what happened. Did he not feel the same way about the just friends thing? Or did he just decide he didn't have time for me for other reasons? Or did he decide to stay with his family and not come back, which wouldn't surprise me that much honestly. Or is something wrong? I feel like I'm never gonna know and it sucks.

very horny post

Why the fuck are there not more t4t trans guy posts on tumblr. There's plenty of MLM trans man posts (good for them!), plenty of transfemme posts, but maybe I wanna drool over a bi/straight T4T trans guy? Ever think of that tumblr

Hand over the hot guys, where the fuck are you hiding them

I visited the beach my Grandpa used to visit. He was quieter than me. On the way, as I drove through the woods, I saw a cardinal.

I feel more kinship with the dead than the living right now. It's hard.

CW Suicide

spoiler

___ i just cant handle being trans. I couldnt handle it when it was vaguely tolerated and now that ill probably be thrown into a camp if i transition its just an impossibility. I dont like my hobbies or friends and family very much. Id want to make a list of touristy fun things to do before a suicide in 2026/27 but I cant even think of anything I want to do. Maybe watch the movies in my blu ray collection once around? I just wish there was an anti depressant powerful enough to make me stop caring. I also hate it because I cant get a gun due to previous attempts and have to rely on hanging/household poisons and theyre pretty scary. Life just isnt worth it for me and it sucks because Im kind of privleged and just wish I could give this life to someone whod enjoy it.

So, if I want to get rid of my beard permanently, I would have to get laser right? I would ask if any here have had experience with Danish places, but we don't have many Danes nor are they online that much, I think? So any more general knowledge on it is appreciated!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

If your facial hair isn't grey or very light blonde and you aren't very dark skinned, laser is the quickest first line treatment. If done right, you can permanently get rid of a 5 o' clock shadow in 10 - 15 sessions (this will take about a year and a half, as you should take a break during the summer months and you should space the later sessions out a bit to catch as many hairs in the growth cycle as possible). I still shave after 10 sessions of laser, but it's just to get my face smooth. I can go out unshaved for two days and without makeup, it takes a pretty big weight off my shoulders. If laser doesn't lead to noticeable blank patches within the first few sessions or if the hair turns lighter, tell your laser technician immediately, they will have to make adjustments to the settings. DO NOT FALL FOR IPL SCAMS. IPL isn't laser, it is almost never a permanent solution for facial hair (it can work on the shins, because hair roots there are closer to the surface). You might need a few touch-up sessions down the line because some hair can regrow, but it'll mostly work.

Needle epilation / electrolysis works if laser is not an option or as a follow-up to laser hair removal. Electrolysis is extremely time-consuming, we're talking several hundred sessions or more. Electrolysis goes after every single hair individually. The advantage is that you can remove all facial hair this way. If your aim is total removal and never having to shave again, electrolysis as a follow-up is a necessity, but it'll take a lot of time even if laser had good results.

Anyone else purposefully disable notifications on Youtube comments and then spend an hour trying to find your old comments to see how much frothingfash and maybe-later-honey outrage you instigated?

No one? Just me? fuck
