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.

  • The transfem urge to want to look good in the prettiest princess-esque dress of all time, while also wanting to be able to run more masc or androgynous clothing while not being looked at as a man.

  • Pride month is approaching, and one of the most rage-inducing phenomenons I know is back: Liberals defending the pride flag by claiming it's not a political symbol but just a symbol of human rights and inclusivity and other totally not political stuff.

    Genuinely such an offensive thing to say. I know there are bigger problems in the world, but this one makes me so fucking mad every time

  • I was just chatting with an online friend (one who I don't talk to a whole lot but recently started chatting with more). I usually communicate with her by text, but I sent her a voice recording tonight.

    She said, "Oh, cool! I like your voice."

    And then I said, "Yeah, I'm still trying to sound less masculine, but I like my progress."

    Then she said, "Wait, what do you mean?"

    I said, "I'm training my voice to sound less masculine. It's very common for trans people to do!"

    Then she said, "Wait, you're trans?"

    I said, "Yeah, wait a minute, did you not know?"

    Then she said, "No. I seriously did not!"

    I thought she knew this whole time! She has seen multiple pictures of me, and my bio has a πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ in it even!

    And I said, "That's crazy. I never thought I looked feminine enough for people to basically assume I'm a cis woman."

    She said, "Well, you obviously look very feminine to me."

    Not only that, though, but she said this ALL after hearing me speak. And her initial reaction wasn't, "Wow, your voice is deeper than I was expecting" or anything like that... she just liked it and didn't question it. I guess that means that not only do I look more feminine than I think, but my voice sounds more feminine than I think too.

    We laughed for a bit, and I ultimately let her know it's a very good, validating thing. Shit's crazy.

  • finally got my first pair of girl pants. I think I did okay guessing my size from a chart (goodwill does not have changing rooms so I couldn't try it on until I got home), it's a bit baggy for what should be skinny jeans, but it's close enough that i'll be wearing them. Overall I'm happy with it, but yall were not lying about the lack of pockets 🫠

  • Soooooo I’m definitely coming out at work after over 2 years of being in the closet. Out on medical leave right now and I’m pretty nervous to do it, should I just send an email? Or something? Change my picture on slack and show up in a dress? Idk haha

  • >Me three weeks ago: "I sure am excited to have a little break between classes and work soon after all my exams are done!"

    >Me today: still working on my last essay, cleaning my whole apartment, and starting work in a few days

  • Can't tell if my nipples are more sensitive due to HRT or just because I'm touching my chest more to check if it's growing

    Tough because I'm overweight, so the man-boob to boob pipeline is muddled

  • Old Pokemon anime would just drop the line "ever since the animals disappeared and the Pokemon arrived..." and just move on like it's whatever. I know this line get retconed with the later games but I do idea that Pokemon just appeared recently and everyone is just so what they can to research them and understand them adds more mysticism that I like

  • Asked two friends to the movies tonight and they were both busy. Not to be dramatic or anything, but this is my personal 9/11

    • i actually feel this hardcore. if i reach out to multiple friends and they don't answer/are all busy i get a huge crush of sad and a little

      about how they must've all realized i suck at the same time

      • Real, they both had actual stuff they needed to do, and we're gonna hang out later anyway, so there's no reason I should feel rejected, but I still do a tiny bit

  • I'm not a super senior nurse. I've only barely started to feel like I know this job.

    Why when I'm in charge do the other staff ask me so much, some of them worked longer than meeeee. She's puffy because she's on prednisone, it's okay, lower her IV a bit she's drinking well, it'll come down. Trouble shoot the foley if its hurting, check for clogs - you check it theough this port yeah, I'll look through her chart if she has another anticholinergic that might help with baldder spasms, put on a warm blanket. He hurt his shoulder a week ago, its probably not why his sickle cell crisis pain is so bad 😭. Yes you can use methotrexate for arthritis, its not a med error, I know it's a cancer drug it has other uses too. What do you mean none of you know how to access an IVAD??? Okay I'll show you.

    I don't mind being in charge but I don't get how I could possibly know my stuff any better? I feel pretty median in terms of my knowledge, I definitely don't feel like a resource.
