Trans Megathread from January 20th, 2024 to January 26th, 2024

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

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 painted my nails (was definitely not reminded to do so by one of you ;)) and I'm honestly impressed with myself! It's not the best, but it's not bad either, especially considering that I really struggle with fine motor function. Autism strikes again, but HAHA I still win. I'm like 7 months in, have had my nails painted since before I transitioned, and this is the first time I have painted them myself. I feel really proud, like it's one more thing I can do for myself
- communism is where everyone paints their nails together
  
  what colour did you go with? mine are a shiny red (my fav) but i messed up with my right pinky and i can't be bothered fixing
  
  I went with a lighter purple. Did it mostly okay, but I bumped one of my nails into something later today and one of them chipped. Literally the
  , but they still look great! I also love shiny red, my sister has a really nice red that she let me use once, and I was just in awe of the color, it was so perfect in a way

  I just painted mine classic red as well.
  But I’m going to try nail stamping tomorrow for the first time. I hope it won’t be too much of a disaster.
  
  omg let me know how it turns out! i've been scared to try stamping but i'm sure you'll do great
  
  Good news, I was impatient so I decided to screw my sleep schedule and do it now. And holy moly is this shit amazing.
  
  It’s a very tedious process and it also creates a huge mess, but it’s also very satisfying and the results are beyond what I had hoped for. It’s not perfect though because there were some things I had to figure out on the go.
  So I went with a baroque-like pattern in black (because that’s the only stamp polish I have) and my nails are vampy as fuck now. The red got a bit darker, which I like and the details are pretty crisp except on my first 2 fingers.
  So yeah, go give it a try! All you have to do is get all the utensils (I just got some pretty cheap ones) and watch this tutorial. She’s spot on with everything she says and as long as you follow her words the process will be suprisingly easy, although, as I said, a bit tedious.
  
  ooooooh that sounds hella fine, i'd love to do black on red! i had a look for stamping pads on my normal nail polish site and there's one that i definitely want to grab so i'll make sure to get that and the other supplies when i order next
  also thanks for the linky, i watched it and the whole thing sounds kinda doable!
  
  Oh, it’s very doable. If someone as clumsy as me can do it, then you should be fine as well. But make sure you have all the supplies she recommends and be thorough with your cleaning after every use. Patience and preparation pays off a lot here.
