No matter what happens always remember that you are not alone. You were strong enough to take this first step so you can be strong enough for anything that comes after.

You’ve got this! <3

I really really needed to see this today, thanks so much <3

Those are awesome and so are you! Thanks for sharing! <3

If you are the only person in the race you will always win.

Congratrulations :3

Ah the disco flag must be when a person is so far gone they skip passed all the other flags because discos straight to heck.

this is, of course, a pun; a play off of “this goes”. you’re welcome. runs away

Agreed. Sadly there are far too many embellished headlines using words like “Slammed”, “Dragged”, “Clapped Back” etc. to attract clicks.

Good for Victoria. I hope we see more people pushing back on this terribly toxic rhetoric…

I stayed away from articles about this when the news broke. I try to give myself space before reading about serious news. I’m glad I decided to give this article a chance. Thank you, Sunshine.

It’s so hard for me to not have a pessimistic view on the future these days. There has never been a time in my life where I was this happy on the inside but just so devastated about what is happening outside.

Let’s hope this gets proper attention. It’s so important that we continue to have a way to control the representation of ourselves on our own documents.

I’ll be good I promise! :3

it hasn’t been too bad for me. I got lobes pierced 2 months ago. there was some discomfort here and there. but I followed the directions I was given and kept them clean. this place uses registered nurses and was great. I just got them switched out there the other day because I was afraid to do it myself and I wanted them to look and make sure the healing was good. I have to keep wearing them all the time but now I can switch them back and forth myself if I want. I think constant ear piercing wearing for a year is what they recommended. and no hoops for a while. I bought an ear piercing pillow on Amazon. it’s like sleeping on a fluffy donut but I’m used to it now.

Oh sweet, the new JellyPus Chia-Pet just dropped! Nice!

oh my gosh i had forgotten all of the sequels! If you want to hear the original trilogy it is:

Tubular Bells (1973)

Hergest Ridge (1974)

Ommadawn (1975)

The original “Halloween” film scared me pretty good when I was a teen. And the theme music is an eerie banger! I loved playing that over and over on the piano back in the day haha…

Actually speaking of scary movie soundtracks, if you enjoy music please do yourself a favor and listen to the entirety of Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells. It gets so wild and amazing after the section they used for the Exorcist theme! One of my favorite albums ever.

And yet you keep replying…

what are you trying to say?

Here are the things I did before I ever bought outwardly facing feminine clothing that helped me pass immediately:

1. Wear a cute hat
2. Colorful reusable face masks to match with outfits (a few bucks on amazon)
3. Cheap but a nice looking purse (20 bucks)
4. Work on voice (Free! Plenty of videos out there to start with)
5. Paint fingernails (about 25$ for a 3-in-1 and a color, be sure to use non-acetone remover)
6. Be well-groomed. (gender affirming barber helps a ton! https://strandsfortrans.org/)
7. Wearing nice undergarments is a huge boon to self image even if no one else can see them!

As for getting clothing when you are ready, I highly recommend Thrifting. The local thrift store changed my life and building a whole wardrobe from scratch is a huge financial investment otherwise. You can get multiple outfits at a thrift store for the same price as one new garment. It’s ridiculous what stores charge for clothing.

When you are really ready, you’ll know. Everyone’s journey is unique and it’s not a race, it’s a marathon. Go at your own pace! You can do this and you are worth it!

I agree completely. The landscape of streaming services for movies and the current theatre prices are extremely distasteful. I was kindly treated to a movie last month with my friend and it was the first time going to a theatre for me in over 5 years and there’s no way I would have gone and paid regular prices myself. Just astounding to see that it’s risen to almost 25$ plus a convenience fee for getting a ticket in advance. Ridiculous.

I do hope you’ll get your chance to see the film however you are able! It looks very well done. :D

I just checked US release dates and a website mentioned it is supposed to have an October 31 opening! I hope it’s a wide release, the trailer looks very funny.

I know that some folks can’t afford to go out to the movies (the prices have become astronomical) but please try to support this film if you have the means. It’s free to sign up for “AMC rewards” and you get a substantial discount for going on Tuesday or Wednesday matinee. That still makes it like 12 bucks + gas but if we pump these numbers up maybe we will get more films like this in the future.

I doubt the veracity of your claims as you’ve provided no proof and it sounds made up.
