I have so much respect for people who are out because that is so scary to me. I love and admire people who's presentation is audacious and challenges your views. I love trans people who do not "pass" and are happy about it, because they have so much confidence in their identity. I feel so afraid to be visibly queer, visibly different. I've never come out about my gender irl, and very few people know about my sexuality.

I read a lot of hexbears yearning posts and I feel for you all, for sure, I get it's lonely. I've been single for 2 years and I just don't feel like it's a bad fate to be single. I had my great love story and it ended how it did, I feel like I'm set and good for life. I remember the feeling though: wishing I had someone close, who I could trust, who loved me, who was there when I was sad or down, feeling so so alone and desperate. I just personally haven't felt it in a loooong time

The UK needs to be broken up and TERFs should be hauled off to a gulag. Unironically. Give occupied Ireland back, and give the Scots and Welsh their independence. Then put England under strict military rule until the brain worms can be properly excised.
Seriously, what justification does the UK have for their backward bullshit? The US is full of (and run by) religious nuts, so that kind of thing is expected. What’s the UK’s excuse for their backwardness?

I just wanted to borrow a bit of e because i was running low, so i headed over to her place and did my shot, we made a little smalltalk and then she kinda just fell into me and we started cuddling. And kept cuddling and giving headpats and scritches and holding hands and hugging each other for an hour and a half. God, i'm still gushing when i think about how good it was to hold her like that. How good she smells, how soft her skin is. At one point, she fell asleep in my arms and she started twitching like a dreaming puppy. It was so cute. She's so precious. I'm so glad i have her in my life.

I saw the Pope at a grocery store in Los Angeles the other day. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Did my first injection, please clap
The injection itself wasn't that bad, I've always been okay with needles. But drawing was a pain in the ass, I had the needle in there for probably 5-10 minutes, constantly pulling and pushing the plunger back and forth to coax the stuff into the syringe. I even did the thing where you inject air into it, but maybe I didn't do it right. I just hope I didn't damage the vial or contaminate it or something

I'm so tired of the doubt... Most of the time it comes by way of other people who are trying in earnest to make sure I'm okay, like my supervisor/mentor today. And it wasn't like denying my identity or anything, just concern that I may be putting femininity on a pedestal and straying a little too far towards self-annihilation instead of self-discovery.
When I talk with people like that who are less affirming the doubt increases and I feel worse. I want it to be true, I want to truly want to be a girl, but what that's just because I'd like an easy way to escape what I currently am?

Xia updates:
I'm a trans woman. Not non binary. Not a fruity guy. I told my partner who has been checking in weekly re: pronouns and she were basically like "really took your time there". Told some old friends and it went well. I assume everything is going fine for trans women? I've been out of the loop.
I had a haircut, the shortest in years, but now to my shoulders, looks great, and it's easier to wear down, I still can put it into a neat bun/undercut combo.
Last night I had a dream I was several years into a zombie apocalypse and I met an old work colleague who was at a fortified hospital looking for a cure, she was like "hey by the way, I heard you are woman, congrats" and we hugged as zombies battered on the boarded windows.

The way liberal cis women discuss a hypothetical "matriarchal world" reeks of binarist essentialism and cisheteronormative naivety. It really often is just "more female war criminals" shit. When you have people who don't actually understand how systems of oppression work discuss their frustrations with said systems of oppression, they end up inadvertently promoting oppression in the process of these discussions.

I bought another gay little St Sebastian medallion last week on a whim. I'm not even past or present catholic. Or Christian or religious. I just like many queer people through history think he's neat.
I bought it online from the Vatican shop, I know in hindsight giving money to the catholic church ugh.
They have an option where it's blessed by the Pope (no extra cost lol). Now obviously he doesn't do them individually, they just slap boxes of stuff down in the square when he blesses everyone and everything twice weekly.
And I was like sure why not, Pope might die soon. They slapped that crate out in the square Sunday, he blessed the square and then he died Monday.
So now I'll have my gay little medallion blessed by the Pope the last time he did it. And I think it's neat from an experiencing history point of view.
Today, I took a little sneak peek at the knitting group I’m about to join. Was only there for about an hour, just saying hello to everyone and getting familiar with the rules there.
And fucking wow! Everyone there was so damn nice.
I was fully expecting things to be quite awkward, because "intruding" into a community where everyone else already knows each other usually is, but they were really forthcoming towards me.
So, yay! I finally get to be more social again after distancing myself from others for so long.

I want to write my thesis (actual masters thesis btw, serious bussiness) about trans people in media (maybe specifically videogames), but i don't have a solid idea yet and i thought i'd ask you all something. What do you think about representation of trans people in media lately? Any good examples that you'd like to share? Any bad ones? What do you think about videogames as a trans person? Have there been any developments that made you feel more included or represented in videogames (or other media)?
You can just say whatever, I just wanna get a feel from asking this, no need to write too much.

i've been feeling pretty out of whack since i stopped weed and started ritalin. i definitely feel like i'm functioning better day-to-day but my anxiety has been through the roof. i was able to go 6 weeks without any weed or alcohol and i think that might be the longest i've been sober in 5 years ~yayy~. i had the normal withdrawal symptoms like insomnia and loss of appetite but all that calmed down around week 4
i also mentioned having more frequent dizziness to my psych and he told me to check my HR with my GP and brought up the possibility of POTS (which after looking into, looks like i have most the symptoms of). at the appointment my GP kinda just brushed off the POTS thing and took my heart rate which was 150bpm. she said we'd check again in 4 weeks and if it's still high probably reduce my medication. that freaked me tf out and made me buy a heart rate tracker to try to self-monitor. fingers crossed i can keep my meds cause they've been so goddamn helpful

also just started using a hair diffuser since realising that i got wavy hair. along with that, my hair is finally long enough to tie up into a ponytail! and holy jesus fuck it looks so hot now, i don't know what to do
and to celebrate Weed Easter, we had a friend stay over on the weekend. we got really high, talked a bunch, i lost my voice, we went to the cinema to watch Flow, cried a bit, went home, got high again, watched ISTTVG, i cried a lot, we played mario party and ate lots of chocolate, then friend went home the next day. it was a really good time but damn i remembered how much i like to . oh well restarted the sobriety streak on Monday, maybe i can go longer than 6 weeks this run

So I recently switched from once weekly estrogen patches to twice weekly ones. There was some overlap with the scripts, leaving me with some of both and so I had an utterly brilliant idea friday. What if I put BOTH on, then that would like... feel good right? Because if estrogen equals good, then more estrogen equals most gooder! I am such a smarticle!
Yeah so I slept until 1pm yesterday, spent the whole day in a state of totally incoherent frustration. I was very bitchy and cried myself to sleep. The crying part being highly abnormal.
I yoinked off the smaller of the patches this morning, having learned why we don't fuck with our horomones all willy nilly.

::: spoiler more spider nightmares
So right after having a nightmare involving really fucked up goat spiders, what do I have to find right on top of my bed? The same spider that managed to elude me yesterday, which probably gave me those nightmares to begin with.
Of course being the little arachnophobic coward that I am, I immediately jumped back and had to regain my composure before daring to take another look. But it was gone.
After removing all of my plushies and the heavy mattress that I can barely lift (fully anticipating getting attacked while I was in a vulnerable state), I took care of the spider I found underneath. Now the problem is: I’m not sure if its the same one.
I’ve now been playing detective, using the cobwebs it left behind to trace back its path, but the results are not satisfying at all.
I’m really not looking forward to the next couple of nights.

Date tonight has to be rescheduled due to my date being under the weather. Was really looking forward to it, but also feeling a bit of relief since I have also been really tired this week and I have a lot to do at work today. I still have a busy weekend with two other dates, so not going to be lacking. I'd like to say that I'm never going to overstack my schedule like this again, but that would be a lie.

The Great Jelly Bean Harvest - Trans Megathread from 2025-04-21 to 2025-04-27
i'm harvesting a great crop of jelly beans today
it's my birthday this week and you have to post a lot okay? :^)
Join our public Matrix server!
https://matrix.to//#/#tracha-space:transfem.dev
https://rentry.co/tracha#tracha-rooms
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.
hi, does anyone wanna make the mega in the upcoming weeks? if so, reply to this post and i'll add you to the list!
the list as it stands:
* after name denotes someone who has posted before and will be skipped by first-time posters
I would like to go soon, next week works fine for me. Or whenever.
I'll do another one as well.
Remember when the pope said "gender ideology is the ugliest danger of our time"?
Sure is cool to see so much of this site gushing over this guy
I have so much respect for people who are out because that is so scary to me. I love and admire people who's presentation is audacious and challenges your views. I love trans people who do not "pass" and are happy about it, because they have so much confidence in their identity. I feel so afraid to be visibly queer, visibly different. I've never come out about my gender irl, and very few people know about my sexuality.
My pronouns are not an accidental duplication, I'd like a double serve of she-s and her-s to make up for lost time please.
Contacted a therapist today. Please be proud of me
I read a lot of hexbears yearning posts and I feel for you all, for sure, I get it's lonely. I've been single for 2 years and I just don't feel like it's a bad fate to be single. I had my great love story and it ended how it did, I feel like I'm set and good for life. I remember the feeling though: wishing I had someone close, who I could trust, who loved me, who was there when I was sad or down, feeling so so alone and desperate. I just personally haven't felt it in a loooong time
The UK needs to be broken up and TERFs should be hauled off to a gulag. Unironically. Give occupied Ireland back, and give the Scots and Welsh their independence. Then put England under strict military rule until the brain worms can be properly excised.
Seriously, what justification does the UK have for their backward bullshit? The US is full of (and run by) religious nuts, so that kind of thing is expected. What’s the UK’s excuse for their backwardness?
I just wanted to borrow a bit of e because i was running low, so i headed over to her place and did my shot, we made a little smalltalk and then she kinda just fell into me and we started cuddling. And kept cuddling and giving headpats and scritches and holding hands and hugging each other for an hour and a half. God, i'm still gushing when i think about how good it was to hold her like that. How good she smells, how soft her skin is. At one point, she fell asleep in my arms and she started twitching like a dreaming puppy. It was so cute. She's so precious. I'm so glad i have her in my life.
It's been way too long since i've randomly yelled
I saw the Pope at a grocery store in Los Angeles the other day. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Did my first injection, please clap
The injection itself wasn't that bad, I've always been okay with needles. But drawing was a pain in the ass, I had the needle in there for probably 5-10 minutes, constantly pulling and pushing the plunger back and forth to coax the stuff into the syringe. I even did the thing where you inject air into it, but maybe I didn't do it right. I just hope I didn't damage the vial or contaminate it or something
thank you for the 1,000 comment birthday megathread :)
I'm so tired of the doubt... Most of the time it comes by way of other people who are trying in earnest to make sure I'm okay, like my supervisor/mentor today. And it wasn't like denying my identity or anything, just concern that I may be putting femininity on a pedestal and straying a little too far towards self-annihilation instead of self-discovery.
When I talk with people like that who are less affirming the doubt increases and I feel worse. I want it to be true, I want to truly want to be a girl, but what that's just because I'd like an easy way to escape what I currently am?
trans rights are moomin rights
TW: medical recovery and pain ::: spoiler spoiler I just got ffs two days ago and Jesus this recovery is painful and psychologically pretty scary. My face looks very fucked up right now, and I’m pretty anxious about how it’s going to turn out. Thank god for Percocet though :::
My right tit seems to be growing slightly larger than my left. Not really much of a problem, it's just I seem to be listing right slightly while I sleep.
::: spoiler extremely depressed Imagine a girlie so fucked up and lonely and starved of care that she has to be cognizant not to accidentally start hitting on the fucking crisis counselor on the crisis hot-line.
It's me, hi, I'm the girlie. Shit like this makes me wonder if I'm just fucked up beyond repair. :::
::: spoiler misogyny Tried to pass a random guy on the streets, he stops and stares at me, says hi and straight out asks if we should get married.
And he's walking with some poor woman who has to try awkwardly laughing it off and tell him that's a bit much.
I was just going to get groceries, but had put a ton of extra effort into my make-up because I felt insecure earlier today. It was not an invitation for guys to hit on me in creepy ways, I just wanted to cheer myself up. :::
Xia updates:
I'm a trans woman. Not non binary. Not a fruity guy. I told my partner who has been checking in weekly re: pronouns and she were basically like "really took your time there". Told some old friends and it went well. I assume everything is going fine for trans women? I've been out of the loop.
I had a haircut, the shortest in years, but now to my shoulders, looks great, and it's easier to wear down, I still can put it into a neat bun/undercut combo.
Last night I had a dream I was several years into a zombie apocalypse and I met an old work colleague who was at a fortified hospital looking for a cure, she was like "hey by the way, I heard you are woman, congrats" and we hugged as zombies battered on the boarded windows.
It really feels like the average terfs conception of trans woman is just like…The Rock in a wig.
Meanwhile I’m like…shorter than my wife’s mother and can’t even lift 50 pounds.
::: spoiler bottom surgery posting Fuck, I love having a vagina so much, ya’ll. I ain’t even the type to wear leggings much, but just being able to without anything getting in the way sounds like bliss.
Can’t wait to be able to go on my first run, but that will certainly be a ways off. :::

There was a bloke in a
jacket at the trans rights protest today. Nothing else to report.
The way liberal cis women discuss a hypothetical "matriarchal world" reeks of binarist essentialism and cisheteronormative naivety. It really often is just "more female war criminals" shit. When you have people who don't actually understand how systems of oppression work discuss their frustrations with said systems of oppression, they end up inadvertently promoting oppression in the process of these discussions.
I have a paper due in 1 weeks time. I keep telling myself, FINISH THE FUGGING PAPER THEN YOUR DEGREE IS PRACTICALLY DONE. YOU CAN SPEND THE REMAINING TIME CHILLING AND GIRLIFYING.
But still, the bed is so much warmer than my study desk.
If i had a nickel for every time i fall for a woman who can give absolutely incredible amounts of affection and care, but struggles to receive and accept being loved due to past trauma, i'd have two nickels. Which isn't much, but it's funny that it happened twice and by funny i mean i wanna strangle the one that did this to her so badly rn.
Playing make believe every night with my plushies, I'm the captain and their my crew but instead of a ship at sea it's a train since I rather not convince myself again I got sea sickness.

::: spoiler life update I'm still gay :::
Excellent haul at the thrift store today. I am still too self-conscious to try out clothes, so I got lucky: everything fits well! Got a couple plain color t-shirts with varying necklines, a yellow shrug, some flannels, and this really cute Torrid purple plaid blousey midi dress that fits perfectly.

::: spoiler cw si
God my brain really doesnt like me lateley. I just feel like theres no point to anything, there is only pain and downward mobility ahead. I wasnt made for this world and i want to leave now. Its days like today that are the reason i dont own a gun, but days like today make me want one so bad.
On top of that i just feel broken. I cant be truly vulnerable with anyone. Its all fake. I can never let anyone see their actions caused me pain because that will cause them pain (thanks for that non-traumatic long term trauma mom). But pretending that they dont hurt me will just end in me eating a 12ga.

which is a number i haven't hit in a long ass time
I guess this answers my question from the other day
We are beating the News Mega
Wife left me on read
Just got perma banned from some
sub fpr telling a mod that "incoherent removed"(the fascist eugenicist term starting with "d") is not a good term to use for banning any kind of sexual content. Oh well, was my first comment in like 4 years anyway. Reminder why I stopped last time. Got spoiled by hexbear.
I have recently become aware of a most cursed study from 2018 concerning willingness to date trans people.
::: spoiler transmisogyny
Sample of just over a hundred lesbians found the demographic was more willing to incongruently date trans men than have a congruent attitude towards trans and cis women regarding their sexuality.

i wore a swimsuit for the first time last night
it was at this day spa thing with my partner and her mum, i wore a one piece with a swim skirt over the top which hid pretty much anything i was concerned about. i was hella anxious about getting clocked/weird looks but none of that happened (or if it did, it was too subtle for me to notice)
Going around with leaves and flowers in my hair is a type of gender probably. I'm the only one in my family who's tall enough that my head hits an archway we made of plants so I just go around town with some of them in my hair unless someone points it out
hello all

I've been getting gendered a lot more at work recently. Not gendered correctly, but just gendered more. I've been getting more "ma'am"s and "sir"s and honestly i really prefer not getting gendered to the mix of the two
So the job I'm working this summer is the first one that I'm actually out as myself for, and omg I was not expecting to get euphoria from a god damn work email having my name of all things

Scheduling is hell. Abolish time.
pirated oblivion remastered and having a good time playing it with gf. the game passed me by back in the day and i don't think i could ever get past the look/art style of the original so this is ideal for me tbh. obviously wouldn't pay money for it but kinda glad it exists?
I bought another gay little St Sebastian medallion last week on a whim. I'm not even past or present catholic. Or Christian or religious. I just like many queer people through history think he's neat.
I bought it online from the Vatican shop, I know in hindsight giving money to the catholic church ugh.
They have an option where it's blessed by the Pope (no extra cost lol). Now obviously he doesn't do them individually, they just slap boxes of stuff down in the square when he blesses everyone and everything twice weekly.
And I was like sure why not, Pope might die soon. They slapped that crate out in the square Sunday, he blessed the square and then he died Monday.
So now I'll have my gay little medallion blessed by the Pope the last time he did it. And I think it's neat from an experiencing history point of view.
you're telling me an apple bottomed those jeans?
Today, I took a little sneak peek at the knitting group I’m about to join. Was only there for about an hour, just saying hello to everyone and getting familiar with the rules there.
And fucking wow! Everyone there was so damn nice.
I was fully expecting things to be quite awkward, because "intruding" into a community where everyone else already knows each other usually is, but they were really forthcoming towards me.
So, yay! I finally get to be more social again after distancing myself from others for so long.

I want to write my thesis (actual masters thesis btw, serious bussiness) about trans people in media (maybe specifically videogames), but i don't have a solid idea yet and i thought i'd ask you all something. What do you think about representation of trans people in media lately? Any good examples that you'd like to share? Any bad ones? What do you think about videogames as a trans person? Have there been any developments that made you feel more included or represented in videogames (or other media)?
You can just say whatever, I just wanna get a feel from asking this, no need to write too much.

a goon is someone who lacks the capability to think for themselves. they take direction from the brainy alphas, the boss types. a gooner is someone who pounds off in a dark room for hours a day

Wow I have changed so much over the past year. And not in the way I wanted to. I've gone through some real awful shit, I came pretty close to dying, I've tried to decide who I am and what I want to do with my life. Shits been crazy. The main thing I've realised is that I'm so young. I'm 22, I don't need to know everything yet.

I have been sitting on my sofa writing an essay incredibly slowly without moving or having a real night of sleep (I've been napping at least don't worry) for the past 4 days and yet I am feeling nothing but joy about it right now. Why does Hegel do this to my brain. Why am I such a junkie for deliberately seeking out the hardest shit I can find to think about. Why is writing this essay genuinely so much fun.
Spent past my bed time chatting with a new friend and now I'm paying the consequences, still need to get my morning cardio in before I can sleep

i also mentioned having more frequent dizziness to my psych and he told me to check my HR with my GP and brought up the possibility of POTS (which after looking into, looks like i have most the symptoms of). at the appointment my GP kinda just brushed off the POTS thing and took my heart rate which was 150bpm. she said we'd check again in 4 weeks and if it's still high probably reduce my medication. that freaked me tf out and made me buy a heart rate tracker to try to self-monitor. fingers crossed i can keep my meds cause they've been so goddamn helpful :::
::: spoiler fun stuff (also drugs) so i've been taking some time off work and last week made my first open source contribution (using a language i haven't used before)
. definitely felt a lot better than the normal start side-project -> ditch it a few days later routine that i'm used to, especially since it's an app i use regularly
also just started using a hair diffuser since realising that i got wavy hair. along with that, my hair is finally long enough to tie up into a ponytail! and holy jesus fuck it looks so hot now, i don't know what to do
and to celebrate Weed Easter, we had a friend stay over on the weekend. we got really high, talked a bunch, i lost my voice, we went to the cinema to watch Flow, cried a bit, went home, got high again, watched ISTTVG, i cried a lot, we played mario party and ate lots of chocolate, then friend went home the next day. it was a really good time but damn i remembered how much i like to
. oh well restarted the sobriety streak on Monday, maybe i can go longer than 6 weeks this run

I like how one of the first mods they dropped for Oblivion Redux was removal of the raytracing and the game runs insanely better and looks less like trash. This recent trend with doing stupid effects shit instead of just focusing on like 4k textures or whatever is such a waste.
I'm interviewing for a new job, its probably going to be a casual position in a different city. I'm doing it because, I gotta get the fuck outta here by August (this town drives me crszy) and also because I have an in there and they liked me when I was a student. I'm gonna end up being a crazy person who picks up shifts a 5 hour drive away only to then turn around and go back home to my full time job yeach

So I recently switched from once weekly estrogen patches to twice weekly ones. There was some overlap with the scripts, leaving me with some of both and so I had an utterly brilliant idea friday. What if I put BOTH on, then that would like... feel good right? Because if estrogen equals good, then more estrogen equals most gooder! I am such a smarticle!
Yeah so I slept until 1pm yesterday, spent the whole day in a state of totally incoherent frustration. I was very bitchy and cried myself to sleep. The crying part being highly abnormal.
I yoinked off the smaller of the patches this morning, having learned why we don't fuck with our horomones all willy nilly.

::: spoiler sex toy questions I recently got out of a relationship and the other night I ordered a basic starter dildo. Is there anything in particular I should know about maintenance and cleaning? Like what kind of environment is best to keep it in, are certain kinds of lube damaging to the dildo, are there best cleaning practices, do I need special cleaner or will soap do just fine? Thanks in advance! :::
I'm like so close to modding daggerfall now but then comes the hard part of continuing to play it after I get the mods I want. Can't say how many times I went out of my way to mod something only to abandon it, only time I stuck through was

Why don't they make cars without the big fuckin tablet console. I don't want the console. I don't even really like power windows or lane keeping but whatever I'll take those.

The PS3 version of
adventure 1 isn't terrible but I think the main drawback is lack of wide screen support.
adventure 2 is much better I find in this aspect not to mention over battle it retains Big the Cat cameos. These ports often get malinged but outside of these two issues I still think they're good

::: spoiler more spider nightmares So right after having a nightmare involving really fucked up goat spiders, what do I have to find right on top of my bed? The same spider that managed to elude me yesterday, which probably gave me those nightmares to begin with.
Of course being the little arachnophobic coward that I am, I immediately jumped back and had to regain my composure before daring to take another look. But it was gone.
After removing all of my plushies and the heavy mattress that I can barely lift (fully anticipating getting attacked while I was in a vulnerable state), I took care of the spider I found underneath. Now the problem is: I’m not sure if its the same one.
I’ve now been playing detective, using the cobwebs it left behind to trace back its path, but the results are not satisfying at all.
I’m really not looking forward to the next couple of nights.
