Newsom opposing the Cali wealth tax but saying hes supportive of a federal wealth tax is very funny
I transitioned at 27! I don't same feel the anguish but I do understand it.
Some of em suck. Ive found the more expensive ones like estradot better for stickage power but theyre wayy more expensive
Ooooh, I see. I dont think they're a waste. I get why people do, I've fantasized the same fantasy lol where I transition at 5 or 11 or whatever. There's parts I liked and wouldn't have had otherwise and there's parts where being a trans girl in the 00s could've been quite bad. I've never struggled with reconciling myself living as a boy and man with also being trans woman who's really happy she's both of those.
I do get the lost time feeling, I suppose in the abstract. Even with my ex, I don't consider any of that time lost or not worthwhile even though we were together a very long time.
Tell em to stop misgendering you, this should be a fun time... you get to go as yourself instead of hiding like when youre home

Im bi and this just sounds like bi cycle stuff to me, personally. Like I'll go a while liking men way more than girls, and wonder if Im just straight... then see a pretty girl and go "ah yes, now I remember." And visa versa.
The part that sounds like internalized transphobia is being dysphoric when other trans femmes are "passing better" (Im assuming thats the deal), because youre comparing yourself to them and finding you measure yourself short. We are the worst judges on how pretty we are or how femme looking etc.
And also ultimately at the root of it all is, if you dont think you can start transitioning cause of your mom - ideally the best thing you can do is move away from your mom.
Where's the cope though?
I loved it! Fun road trip buddy movie about the power of friendship. Andy Weir 2010s style writing choices weren't super distracting. Ryan Gosling looked hot af, I loved the nerdy thing.

Voice training is hard, and you do seem to be harsher on yourself than you strictly should be - which makes sense because of how dysphoric your voice makes you feel, and voice training does ask you to listen to it and pay attention to it.
Some of it is "simple" but if youve never done it... it aint. Like raising your soft palette? Is a legitimately weird hard thing to do. But it helps with voice. Some is actually not difficult per se, like putting your tongue up behind your teeth and taking up more space in your mouth in general but it takes concious effort at first which can be a bummer (eventually i swear it starts becoming automatic)
Just water maybe? Just a good ol bolus of water by mouth
Yeah cause most likely you need to go back. The proverbial wound reopened and you gotta be seen to help deal with that.
What you said in your deleted comment is therapist worthy.

I went out with a girl the other day and she thought me and one of my friends were a monogamous couple. We arent dating, and neither of us is monogamous, when she explained why it made sense I guess. My friend got my a plate, I got her food, I laid on her lap, we talked and seen like we know each other well. So, I guess I can see it. Still made me laugh though
