I swear recently I can feel that I've shrunk almost an inch in height. Like everything feels faintly shorter now even though it's extremely unlikely that I actually shrunk quickly enough to notice like that

Do I message the admins if I want new pronouns added? Craving cat based pronouns.
Also at that there's so many cat/kitten based pronouns I can't decide which I like best
Messaging @CARCOSA@hexbear.net directly should work. Excited to see what you pick, it's always cool to see new pronouns!
dysphoria posting, kind of but not really
i only ever have two moods anymore
"I don't pass!" (I look like a man and people gender me as male and I feel bad)
"I don't pass!" (I am a menace to gender norms and society with just my very presence)
socially awkward bullshit, misgendering, spaghetti and self outting for no good reason
Had a weird interaction irl where I got flustered about a stranger misgendering me and just blurted out me outing myself
The key fob thing at my gym went out at some point between when I got there today and when these other people showed up, so I kept having to open the door for them and explain it to them
This one (very attractive tbh, like idk really how I feel about cis women at this point TBH but like, damn girl, good for you, she probably has never skipped a squat set) has me open the door for her, I explain everything, right after she shows up and says she's gonna send the owner a thing about the key thing, this older (busted tbh but she was weird to me so I don't feel bad about saying that) lady shows up
I let her in while she's locked out
First thing she says is some shit about some Sinclair ass local news shit she saw like "I saw a thing about how this lady opened the door at her gym for a stranger and then he assaulted her!!'
...and I'm just like, "well for the record I'm queer, so don't worry"
Haven't outed myself to a stranger in a long time but fuck, what a weird interaction
i finally finished children of memory and came to report it, just to find out that it's no longer my megathread :cri:

i get why this book is kinda divisive - it breaks from the format of the first two heavily - but i loved it, though i'll admit i'm still processing the final 100 or so pages. the idea of the machine itself being sentient (or as sentient as anything can be) is a pretty fascinating question though
CW: Transphobia, identification documents, health insurance, forced outing
More fuckery with my passport application. After sending it in for a correction after they failed to put the correct gender marker on it, they now sent me a letter (which took a week to arrive) that I need to send in my birth certificate. As far as I can tell from the state department website, there is no requirement to send in proof of citizenship with a DS-5504, so I am annoyed and nervous. I am including another letter with the relevant web pages about the data correction and gender marker change policies, but I am beginning to despair. I am now worried that the policy could change before the processing of the passport is complete.
Health insurance at work is also starting to be a nightmare. The HR system allows you not to disclose gender/sex, but that's fake because you have to pick a binary sex for the health insurance. The HR representative also used transphobic language in the email letting me know about this, so that's pretty bad as well. I put it down as female, and then updated my gender identity info as well to make it clear. Not adding pronouns yet since that pops up without digging into the profile, so at least I can avoid that involuntary outing, but it really sucks overall.
I am now worried that the insurance company is going to ask for proof of sex at some point, and until I get my passport I don't have any IDs that have the correct gender marker (updating state ID is out of the question).
dysphoria
"self care" actually sucks ass and I remember why I neglect myself. Holy shit I never want to shave again. Fucking awful. Now that my clothes are back on I think I'm stabilizing but I went from "okay" to very much not okay.
Didn't even get half done god I have to force myself to do that again don't I. And soon all that work will be gone.
white boy shocks everyone in the restaurant by touching a live wire
The new partner love is flowing very strongly. Trying to get prepped for Valentine's day. Anyone know of some nice stockings with hearts on them?
i swear to god every time i see office workers reminiscing on the time they got to stay home and bake sourdough or whatever while there was a plague i want to injure them
Omg modded Minecraft is so much fun
mental health, family shit, trauma but like, turning a corner and optimistic
Had an awful day and a really ugly family blowup
Thought I might actually lose it
Made it through the day with no incidents
Even did my gym sets and got girl scout cookies ordered from (former) crush (they're apparently a troupe leader and have been since they were a kid? Anyways yay cookies, they're nice and I think I'm mostly over my emo shit about that but w/e)
Anyways despite having been really tempted to commit (several) felonies and barely preventing myself from that, I decided after that to find a therapist again and work on CPTSD shit
I may not be able to fully get my shit together yet, but I'm now open to consulting with a shit-cartographer to at least map out where my shit isn't together
Is anybody here particularly good with character design or color theory? I'm trying to figure out what colored clothing/armor would go well with colored hair, and I always tend to fall on whites/greys/blacks.
it's bolshevikProglace now.
small nsfw
if this doesn't make me eepy and/or horny i want a refund
She judge my slop too harshly
Feelin' tired and sad today
Keep thinking about a stranger I ran into yesterday and wish I had been more outgoing and friendly, they seemed cool but I was stressed out and probably seemed bitchy and not very approachable
I feel like such a fuckin' goober a lot of the time in public but worry that I come across as intimidating or something
::: spoiler dysphoria, suicide My brothers went to the liquor store without me, my cousins are all friends and have excluded me and my siblings, I want to be launched into the sun, and I don't think anyone would care if I disappeared. My presence has no impact.
Shit weekend. I wasted it. Nobody sees me. God fucking dammit. I want to disappear
I feel more and more like I can only do self-care by shutting everyone out and deciding that I don't care anymore. And that's a hard thing to face, because I feel really let down. I was supposed to communicate perfectly in order to get help, and I couldn't, so no wonder I'm where I'm at. It stinks.
I don't like having violent thoughts. I don't know where to put this shit. I could scream at everyone. I could break something. If this is all a lie let me just blow it the fuck up and start over without any pretense of having somebody
Like I have been dead fucking alone with my thoughts for half a decade. I could rip my hair out but it's probably gonna fall out on its own. Then I'll look even more like a guy. What a strapping ~~young~~ man.
Obviously I'm stupid for expecting someone to notice an abrupt and obvious change in my behaviors. Obviously I expect too much from people. Which tells me that I, once again, have let everyone down. Like, this shit never ends! I don't understand the distinction between having zero expectations from others and just not caring. I'm getting really close to not caring what happens. It sucks.
I just wanna disappear and transition and never have to deal with these people again. It's not even that they aren't accepting,they just don't see me regardless and I feel invisible. I just want a new life with people who I don't have to wonder if they care or not. Like I am so sick of all of it and nobody caring. Am I a psychopath for being sad and hoping that someone notices. Am I really just supposed to say "hey can we talk . uh uh I'm SAD!" like a toddler. What the fuck am I supposed to do
Ash was such a fake friend trading Butterfree for a rat, don't care for the 10 year old excuse I was a perfect 10 yo myself who never traded one of my friends
