Banana mega! Trans Megathread from April 28th, 2025 to May 4th, 2025
::: spoiler snake post
I'd like to talk about one of my favorite ball python morphs, the banana gene. It is an incomplete dominant trait first produced by NERD in 2003. Incomplete dominant means an animal only needs one copy of the gene for it to express itself, however a "super" (homozygous) form exists when both parents pass the gene on to their offspring.
An adult and baby banana ball python. As you can see, they are bright yellow with black spots as adults, looking very much like a banana. They have white bellies. This is a different gene from albinism, and they have normal eyes. Here's a wild type for comparison:
One thing that is very unique to the banana gene is it is sex linked (the only ball python morph that does this, not sure about other animals). Female bananas will produce equal split of male and female, banana and wild type. However in males, it is linked to how the sire inherited the gene. If he inherited it from his father's side, he is a "male maker" and almost all of the bananas he produces will be male. The sex split and morph split are the same (50/50), but almost all the males will have the gene and almost all the females will be wild type. Same if he inherited the gene from his mother, just reversed (this is a "female maker"). A common myth/misunderstanding is that this holds true all the time, it does not. A male maker can still produce female banana ball pythons, and male wild types. Same for female makers, in the other direction. Roughly 3% of snakes produced from male bananas will be one of these instead of the "expected" outcome.
These are both super bananas if you wanted to see what they look like ^^

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.

"can you believe this law will affect cis women too? they really haven't thought this through"
a) yes they have thought it through, they actually don't care about their wellbeing either
b) if someone points a gun at me, and your first concern is a hypothetical person standing behind me who might also get hit, then that's something for sure

First real date.
First kiss.
First make out session.
First cuddle session.

First partnered sex.
First sleeping in a bed with a sex partner.

JohnBrownsBussy2 [she/her, they/them] - 1.2yr
There is one thing that I definitely want to improve on for next time.
::: spoiler sex
The sex was fun and hot, but neither of us achieved orgasm. That made me feel bad/guilty for a while, but they reassured me that they had a good time and we're talking about what we want to do differently to make that easier.

lilypad [she/her, it/its] - 1.2yr
::: spoiler sex
Hey so like terminal encounter said, kill that shit. Im a person who really struggles to orgasm from a partner, and prefer to use a vibrator or similar (even then it can take a long time). When i have sex it isnt in order to reach orgasm, its to enjoy myself and have fun with my partner!
If you/your partner want orgasms absolutely discuss how to make that happen, but dont let it get into your head as the "goal" of sex, or even worse equating not giving your partner an orgasm with failure.
13
TerminalEncounter [she/her] - 1.2yr
::: spoiler spoiler
No omg kill that shit in your head right now. The goal of sex is not orgasm. Its to have a good time and feel good with someone you love (or at least lust lol).
If you were a virgin and you're on HRT, a lot of stuff is different than you mightve ever heard before. Domt sweat it, they dont make many guides for people like us. Just be open to exploring and build up and trust next time. Talking is good!
Do not EVER think to yourself again that you failed at sex if someone didn't orgasm.

JohnBrownsBussy2 [she/her, they/them] - 1.2yr
::: spoiler spoiler
You're right. Achieving orgasm is tough for me while masturbating now, but I expected it to be easier with a partner so I was kinda blindsided. Still, as I have some distance, the negative feelings I felt are fading, while all the fun and good stuff remain as strong and happy memories.

::: spoiler long bottom surgery euphoria posting, hornyposting
Getting close to about a month after surgery, and recovering way ahead of schedule thus far. Already able to use the largest dilator and begin to experiment with some solo play. :>
I have started to be able to take walks in excess of a mile again and though they wear me out, it feels so good to be able to walk with no penis. I cannot wait to take my first run! Definitely feeling some serious muscle atrophy with mandatory prescribed couch potato time, but also have never felt so driven to get back to being active than this moment in my life.
I have thought myself asexual for most of my life but have been feeling that called into question this month now that I have the genitals that feel in line with my body. Been absolutely impeccably horny at all times and feeling more bisexual than ever. Most interestingly to me is that I have always considered myself a top, but have been really eager to know what bottoming feels like with the new equipment in coming months. My whole body feels electric even as I cannot yet orgasm whilst learning the new equipment and the nerves slowly realign.
Have literally never felt so at ease in my body as I have now, and am regularly getting emotional that this will just be me for the rest of my life. I did not expect to feel so absolutely happy with the results of having a vulva and a vagina, and i’m still so early in recovery. I cried so much this morning as I put on underwear I first purchased when I transitioned years ago and did not wear because it made me dysphoric, and it fit on my body correctly.
Life can be so fucking difficult, has been so fucking difficult for so long and will be difficult again, but right now, everything just got to go right for once. I am so grateful for that.

When i was growing up I loved long baths but would usually wait till my mom would be gone cuz she hated baths and usedta yell and pound the walls if i didn't make enough noise. i had to splash lots. lots. i couldn't really relax
TBF, it came from trauma cuz she stepped out for a sec once when i was 2 it 3 and come back to find me blue under the water.
when i take baths to this day i chuckle cuz i can still hear her hittin the shared wall and\or yellin "SPLASH MORE! I DON'T HEAR SPLASHING!!"

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 🏳️⚧️ 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.

🎀 Seryph (She/Her) - 1.2yr
It depends on the type of bra and how much support it has. I tend to wear light support ones (the ones meant for yoga) which are comfy for daily wear and I don't notice that much compression on them. Also you can buy padded ones which are meant to add extra support but have the bonus of making your boobs look a little bigger (I tend to go for those tbh, the padding doesn't add a lot but it feels affirming to me) Usually the padding is removable too if you dislike it.

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.

Some course or some such offered through my library. 22 hours and I'll go from zero to hero it says, plus as with everything there's a discord because why not. The discord is more for students of the course apparently so I fully expect to see some more transes there if anyone is in it that is.

I'm so stressed right now. I start work tomorrow and I'm going to have more responsibilities than I'm used to at my new job. I'm so worried I'm gonna mess something up early and be fucked over all summer, or that I won't be able to cope with the increase in responsibility and will just collapse or fail to get my work done. And since it's my first time in any sort of leadership role I'm also just scared that I won't be able to actually do it effectively. I don't fucking know how to lead at all. I'm such a mess even at the best of times. How am I gonna be able to deal with all the extra meetings and directing people when I can't even make friends. I can barely even talk to the friends I do have without inevitably at some point accidentally insulting them.
And I still haven't finished my last essay and housecleaning so I can't even really spend today resting at all. I'm so fucking tired. I want to just slow down. I didn't even really sleep last night, just napped a lot since I was too stressed for a real sleep. I have no energy left. But I still have to keep pushing since I have so many commitments still. Literally every day until next Saturday I'll have some necessary thing to do or another and its been like this all month and I'm just so done. There's been so many messages from friends or family over the past month that I've accidentally ghosted since I just don't have the energy to reply to them and I feel awful each time but I also can barely even focus on the damn essay and other stuff that I really need to have done already. The one saving grace is that my seasonal depression is mostly done now so I'm not crying every single day anymore like I was around exam time. Instead I'm just, so, so tired and stressed.
Honestly tomorrow is even scaring me a little. I was expecting to start work with at least some rest between exams and it but since I haven't gotten any I have no clue how I'm going to be and coupled with all the stress I'm just a bit terrified. I'm glad I have the leadership role since i think it'll be good for me to work on those skills and everything but I also just, don't feel ready, not even a little bit.

I hate feeling like a third (or fourth or fifth) wheel all the time and being overstimulated and overwhelmed attempting to be social
Everything is too much and I feel like I only ever get brought along to things out of pity and then do a bad job socializing while also barely holding it together the whole time and eating myself up mentally for not doing better
I feel like I'm just inherently magnetically repellent to neurotypical socializing
I have no clue how they can do it, I went to dinner at a (pretty nice) restaurant and all the noise was just unbearable while trying to fit into polite small talk and I got a massive headache and spent the whole time feeling like an awkward blob that was just unwanted baggage and was on edge the whole time dreading putting my foot in my mouth or spilling something or making an ass out of myself somehow but apparently it was a nice dinner according to normal people
I just wanna hide under the blankets in a dark quiet room for awhile
Existing for me often feels like that awkward hallway dance thing where two people are trying to walk past each other and both step into each other's way attempting to let the other by, but the other person is every person and the hallway is the world all the time

I told em "does 2055 sound like it'll be good years going forward from that or bad." And that's probably the biggest difference between generations (as real as they are) lol. One hand you have something stable but you had to work for, the other feels like the end of a thread of an unraveling sweater

So this is capeshit, my mom is watching end game and it's the part where the bow guy and Scarlett Johansen have to figure out who's gonna be sacrificed to get the soul stone. Doesn't Bow Guy... have a wife and kids? When it's time to recount the story, is he gonna tell them that he sacrificed the one he loved the most - Scarlett Johansen?

Banana mega! Trans Megathread from April 28th, 2025 to May 4th, 2025
::: spoiler snake post I'd like to talk about one of my favorite ball python morphs, the banana gene. It is an incomplete dominant trait first produced by NERD in 2003. Incomplete dominant means an animal only needs one copy of the gene for it to express itself, however a "super" (homozygous) form exists when both parents pass the gene on to their offspring.
An adult and baby banana ball python. As you can see, they are bright yellow with black spots as adults, looking very much like a banana. They have white bellies. This is a different gene from albinism, and they have normal eyes. Here's a wild type for comparison:
One thing that is very unique to the banana gene is it is sex linked (the only ball python morph that does this, not sure about other animals). Female bananas will produce equal split of male and female, banana and wild type. However in males, it is linked to how the sire inherited the gene. If he inherited it from his father's side, he is a "male maker" and almost all of the bananas he produces will be male. The sex split and morph split are the same (50/50), but almost all the males will have the gene and almost all the females will be wild type. Same if he inherited the gene from his mother, just reversed (this is a "female maker"). A common myth/misunderstanding is that this holds true all the time, it does not. A male maker can still produce female banana ball pythons, and male wild types. Same for female makers, in the other direction. Roughly 3% of snakes produced from male bananas will be one of these instead of the "expected" outcome.
These are both super bananas if you wanted to see what they look like ^^ :::

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.

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'd like to get put back on the list
ok!
"can you believe this law will affect cis women too? they really haven't thought this through"
a) yes they have thought it through, they actually don't care about their wellbeing either
b) if someone points a gun at me, and your first concern is a hypothetical person standing behind me who might also get hit, then that's something for sure
Date this weekend has a lot of firsts:
::: spoiler NSFW
Next time they're spending a weekend at my place.
That sounds so fun! I hope the weekend at yours is just as lovely, if not moreso, than this weekend!
There is one thing that I definitely want to improve on for next time.
::: spoiler sex The sex was fun and hot, but neither of us achieved orgasm. That made me feel bad/guilty for a while, but they reassured me that they had a good time and we're talking about what we want to do differently to make that easier. :::
::: spoiler sex
Hey so like terminal encounter said, kill that shit. Im a person who really struggles to orgasm from a partner, and prefer to use a vibrator or similar (even then it can take a long time). When i have sex it isnt in order to reach orgasm, its to enjoy myself and have fun with my partner!
If you/your partner want orgasms absolutely discuss how to make that happen, but dont let it get into your head as the "goal" of sex, or even worse equating not giving your partner an orgasm with failure.
::: spoiler spoiler No omg kill that shit in your head right now. The goal of sex is not orgasm. Its to have a good time and feel good with someone you love (or at least lust lol).
If you were a virgin and you're on HRT, a lot of stuff is different than you mightve ever heard before. Domt sweat it, they dont make many guides for people like us. Just be open to exploring and build up and trust next time. Talking is good!
Do not EVER think to yourself again that you failed at sex if someone didn't orgasm. :::
::: spoiler spoiler You're right. Achieving orgasm is tough for me while masturbating now, but I expected it to be easier with a partner so I was kinda blindsided. Still, as I have some distance, the negative feelings I felt are fading, while all the fun and good stuff remain as strong and happy memories. :::
All those firsts would be overwhelming to me
We had been chatting and flirting for weeks, and already had a video date. They were super kind and considerate at every step, but also took initiative while staying within my boundaries. It was a lovely time.
I’m married and can barely make out with my wife, so I’m probably the weird one
Yea, idek how long it would take for me to process all that after.
It's been a few days and I am still processing it, but I enjoyed it so it's nice to dwell on.
Happy for you :) Just, I guess, some of those things would be a lot for me to deal with. Maybe eventually though
Aw that's so cute! Glad you had a good time!
Damn, speed running.

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.

::: spoiler long bottom surgery euphoria posting, hornyposting Getting close to about a month after surgery, and recovering way ahead of schedule thus far. Already able to use the largest dilator and begin to experiment with some solo play. :>
I have started to be able to take walks in excess of a mile again and though they wear me out, it feels so good to be able to walk with no penis. I cannot wait to take my first run! Definitely feeling some serious muscle atrophy with mandatory prescribed couch potato time, but also have never felt so driven to get back to being active than this moment in my life.
I have thought myself asexual for most of my life but have been feeling that called into question this month now that I have the genitals that feel in line with my body. Been absolutely impeccably horny at all times and feeling more bisexual than ever. Most interestingly to me is that I have always considered myself a top, but have been really eager to know what bottoming feels like with the new equipment in coming months. My whole body feels electric even as I cannot yet orgasm whilst learning the new equipment and the nerves slowly realign.
Have literally never felt so at ease in my body as I have now, and am regularly getting emotional that this will just be me for the rest of my life. I did not expect to feel so absolutely happy with the results of having a vulva and a vagina, and i’m still so early in recovery. I cried so much this morning as I put on underwear I first purchased when I transitioned years ago and did not wear because it made me dysphoric, and it fit on my body correctly.
Life can be so fucking difficult, has been so fucking difficult for so long and will be difficult again, but right now, everything just got to go right for once. I am so grateful for that. :::
I did the dishes. Please clap for me.

I don’t like when my wife takes a bath because I’m always nervous she will fall asleep and drown
There is a non zero chance that you're allowed to check up on your naked wife yknow...
i died
When i was growing up I loved long baths but would usually wait till my mom would be gone cuz she hated baths and usedta yell and pound the walls if i didn't make enough noise. i had to splash lots. lots. i couldn't really relax
TBF, it came from trauma cuz she stepped out for a sec once when i was 2 it 3 and come back to find me blue under the water.
when i take baths to this day i chuckle cuz i can still hear her hittin the shared wall and\or yellin "SPLASH MORE! I DON'T HEAR SPLASHING!!"
reply to this post so i can see numbers in my inbox when i wake up. say something cool or interesting
Everyone is always gushing over sword lesbians, but there is no love for the humble spear lesbian
I read a chapter of a book. Please clap for me.
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 🏳️⚧️ 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.
::: spoiler transition doomer posting, medical insurance bullshit
OH MY FUCKING GOD MY INSURANCE IS ACTUALLY DOG SHIT AND WON'T COVER ANY SURGERIES
the tl;dr is that they're operating out of a neighboring state instead of my own state, which means that because my plan is a very red state, they don't have to cover shit, despite the fact that I am living in a state to where I am legally guaranteed coverage
idk if it's totally joever just yet but fuck this is already looking very fucking bad

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 🫠
>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 daysMy credit report says I'm clean, mature and thick 😎
for the first time since high school i stepped off the scales and saw I was below 200 pounds
I really need to find bras that are comfortable
You should try some in a store, I know it's scary and nerve wracking...
What's your opinion on sports bras? Since they're what I tend to find comfortable
Wouldn’t that make my boobs smaller?
It depends on the type of bra and how much support it has. I tend to wear light support ones (the ones meant for yoga) which are comfy for daily wear and I don't notice that much compression on them. Also you can buy padded ones which are meant to add extra support but have the bonus of making your boobs look a little bigger (I tend to go for those tbh, the padding doesn't add a lot but it feels affirming to me) Usually the padding is removable too if you dislike it.
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

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.

) which never happened when I was a "cis" "guy", in those days I had sexual fantasies but more about how specific girls I was into might act when I'm with them
idk where I'm going with this, but I think the point is that the sense of longing is different as a girl than before 🤔 :::
A child asked my parents if I was their daughter. Suspect it was a case of a child just assuming hair length is gender, but still cool to have at least someone assume I'm not a guy for once. Also particularly fun having that happen in front of my parents.

But think of the children. They will have nightmares. Pretty cool ones, but still.
I always go back and forth on whether I'm actually trans or not...... It's so hard to like tell cause I think I've internalized that I'm co-opting or just using it as an aesthetic... Fuck I don't know what I am anymore.
Like I think I want to be a girl, but then I worry that I'm just fetishizing it and oh my god I've been doing this for months how do I figure this shit out.
Gonna be trying my best going forward to learn coding, python since this mega is snake related. Some course or some such offered through my library. 22 hours and I'll go from zero to hero it says, plus as with everything there's a discord because why not. The discord is more for students of the course apparently so I fully expect to see some more transes there if anyone is in it that is.

I have a sorta partner but they're six hours away minimum. I could take the drive but with the condition my brakes are in, that's spooky. How do I find people on apps that just wanna hook up without getting my kidneys stolen or getting hate crimed??
I also don't really wanna fuck any of my current friends so that's pretty out of the question. :::
i wanna learn archery it seems fun
::: spoiler Venting I'm so stressed right now. I start work tomorrow and I'm going to have more responsibilities than I'm used to at my new job. I'm so worried I'm gonna mess something up early and be fucked over all summer, or that I won't be able to cope with the increase in responsibility and will just collapse or fail to get my work done. And since it's my first time in any sort of leadership role I'm also just scared that I won't be able to actually do it effectively. I don't fucking know how to lead at all. I'm such a mess even at the best of times. How am I gonna be able to deal with all the extra meetings and directing people when I can't even make friends. I can barely even talk to the friends I do have without inevitably at some point accidentally insulting them.
And I still haven't finished my last essay and housecleaning so I can't even really spend today resting at all. I'm so fucking tired. I want to just slow down. I didn't even really sleep last night, just napped a lot since I was too stressed for a real sleep. I have no energy left. But I still have to keep pushing since I have so many commitments still. Literally every day until next Saturday I'll have some necessary thing to do or another and its been like this all month and I'm just so done. There's been so many messages from friends or family over the past month that I've accidentally ghosted since I just don't have the energy to reply to them and I feel awful each time but I also can barely even focus on the damn essay and other stuff that I really need to have done already. The one saving grace is that my seasonal depression is mostly done now so I'm not crying every single day anymore like I was around exam time. Instead I'm just, so, so tired and stressed.
Honestly tomorrow is even scaring me a little. I was expecting to start work with at least some rest between exams and it but since I haven't gotten any I have no clue how I'm going to be and coupled with all the stress I'm just a bit terrified. I'm glad I have the leadership role since i think it'll be good for me to work on those skills and everything but I also just, don't feel ready, not even a little bit. :::

I feel like I'm just inherently magnetically repellent to neurotypical socializing
I have no clue how they can do it, I went to dinner at a (pretty nice) restaurant and all the noise was just unbearable while trying to fit into polite small talk and I got a massive headache and spent the whole time feeling like an awkward blob that was just unwanted baggage and was on edge the whole time dreading putting my foot in my mouth or spilling something or making an ass out of myself somehow but apparently it was a nice dinner according to normal people

First two days of work done, a lot less stressed about it now. Also managed to finish the essay so now all I gotta do is finish cleaning when I find the motivation to. Either way feeling better now than I was a few days back.

A group of individuals known only as the Pee Ass 5 have made waves after peeing on their own asses today. As of now their motives are unclear but police have told us they've received a manifesto from the group. More on this story as it develops
I've been working on playing a song in the piano (i don't really play but i can pick out simple tunes) and i have been feeling good about it! i think i will be able to memorize all the chords today and maybe even shakily add in the singing part by days end! I'm pretty excited y'all i forgot i liked doing this and I'm stoked that i still can
::: spoiler cw: butt stuff, sex So, finally got the hemorrhoid on my sphincter removed. Recovery is going to be annoying, but should be fine. Cannot wait until it is all good and healed and I can start learning how to bottom. Because of the location, it felt impossible to relax/stretch without pain and blood. :::

My whole time I've had my neopronouns I've been referred with it once and it was glorious
I can introduce myself with they/them pretty easy and more often I see the nonbinary option but it feels futile to explain neopronouns cuz like I don't fully get it either but they make me happy.
Being low T means my voice is dumb but I get to keep my hairline into my 30s so that's pretty good. Don't know if I'm actually low T but spiritually I am
No one told me that fat redistribution would absolutely wreck the thighs of my work jeans.
I run back and forth between welding machines, about four miles every night. After only one year of doing this all my work jeans have worn through the thighs and I've had to sew patches into them! This is bullshit. That's like several hundred dollars a year if I have to buy new ones (and I definitely will soon, the patches need patches now).
All those times my tummy hurt I thought it be the end yet I'm still here
never give up or give in

::: spoiler sad thoughts/self reflection On the real I think I have like amazing texting game or whatever on the first day I meet someone and few days afterward and then I burn out. Then I just disappear for a while and work up the courage to talk again. Talking to people for the first time is such a hit of dopamine and after I'm like not getting the same so it becomes work. It's most likely not healthy on my end to treat relationships like this but I struggle to know how to walk this line sometimes
walking away from alcohol or weed was easy but I rather not do that with people or have that be as easy or something.

There's something so much harder about job interviews when the reason is better insurance for surgery. It's interesting how much that changes things. The times I interviewed previously I've felt quite confident, but now I'm emotionally tired and second guessing my responses. I didn't used to be like this :/
I don't always know what to post here, but I hope everyone's holding up okay with whatever is getting to you lately

::: spoiler spoiler ::: spoiler upset, negativity, voice dysphoria and self harm urges Listening to some music. New song comes on, absolute banger. Just hitting different. Like an idiot I turn it up all the way and sing like 3 words before hearing my disgusting, horrible, mutilated voice. Mood instantly ruined. Cry. Struggle against the self harm urges. They still haven't gone away and probably won't until tomorrow (fingers crossed).
Shit like this makes me hate being trans. This wouldn't have happened otherwise. I wouldn't hate my voice like this.
Oh, and voice training is just this, but worse by actively trying to listen to myself instead of the opposite (which clearly wasn't enough). For what, hundreds of hours? Of sounding like a mockery of a woman. I can't do it. Want to hurt myself so fucking bad. Why did this happen to me. Probably just going to die mad and dysphoric bc I can't. I never want to speak again. :::

Anyone have experience getting their eyebrows done at the hairdresser, like is it gonna be worse than having them done at a beauty salon? The price is pretty similar (expensive as fuck), and I would prefer my hair stylist do it because I know her and because it's convenient when I'm already there to do my hair anyway, but idk if beauticians are better trained at stuff like that.
I did it a handful of times pre-transition but that was just coloring without shaping, now I want both.
I've had my eyebrows threaded and it looked great. Probably going to do tomorrow.
I get my brows waxed every so often and I've never noticed much of a difference between getting it done at a hair stylist vs at a spa or what have you. That said, my sample size is rather small and every stylist is going to be different. You'll probably be fine.
When Mr Red Hot Chili Pepper mentioned the gender of a generation I went

My style is to worry so much I get a tummy ache
and then it usually being a nothing burger. Hope it's a nothing burger since I wanna enjoy my lazy sunday and I can't do anything about it till tomorrow anyway
Finally beat the Amon fights in Yakuza 0 and with that I consider finally done with 0. The Majima's fight was def tougher than Kiryu 's having to fight a suped up version of mad dog style and dragon style was some bullshit not to mention him swapping out your items with tissues and poisoned drinks was annoying, interesting but annoying. Still now I can move on to kiwami 2.
I'll be saying good bye to this old engine 5, 0 and kiwami 1 used to go back to the dragon engine 6, like a dragon and the later games use. Feel meh but hopefully they improved it from 6. Like a dragon didn't get much of a feel for since it was a RPG.
I am stuck at home due to recovering from a non-transition related minor operation. Not too much discomfort, but I have to lay on my side most of the day so all I can really do is text, read and watch TV/movies. Would love film recs, especially ones that give gender feels.

I think every poster should somewhere title drop their post like in the movies preferably after putting on some shades
I know I'd pog pretty hard and soy point 
Is transitioning a lifelong process or does it 'end'?
Yakuza dead souls is the
06 of the Yakuza series so that's why I love it. It's got a lot of heart and both sort of non canon because reasons. The day has come people have come around to 06 because of the P-06 and shadow generations so dead souls will have it's day
lately I've been tempted to get a PS5, but I'll think I'll refrain, not because it doesn't have games I'm interested in (it does), but just because it's ugly
Name a more iconic duo than "not being able to figure out why I felt weird and bad all day" and "discovering at 7:30pm that I forgot to take my morning meds"
I love seeing users of this site defend transphobes, it is my favorite.
tonight, I've let the bed bugs bite
Trying to find more info on yakuza dead souls is annoying, wanted to show someone the MJM56-55 Exorcist Majima's exclusive shotgun and it's like all I'm getting is stuff from yakuza 0 and kiwami 1. Even the wiki is lacking on a good image with the blue flames.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Been reading some material from Black Dog a subdivision of the old white wolf ttrpg (most know them for vampire the masquerade) mostly wanted to see it since I heard them being pretty edgy/meta so figured why not. Rn reading freak legion and like I'm a chapter in and it's ok, not used to the earlier comic style they had back then. I get it's supposed to be visceral but guess it was a different time.
Filling the DMs with unwanted SEGA game takes that no one asked for

1000 Eyes, that did half of the Signalis soundtrack, just released an album of alternate versions of tracks from the game
If you can suppress the urge to cringe and instead look onward with wide eyes and a smile that goes to your eyes then you know you're doing your inner child proud.

Old scans of books from the 90s have such a charm to them, that fuzzy text and image make me feel so cozy as I read
I miss playing shadow reloaded
after my first Wii died the second one I had I tried to homebrew but I had issues with it and just kinda stopped. That game was comfort slop even if 1.0 was ballbustingly hard it was goated. Now I remember the update of reloaded used a custom version of nintendont that I could never figure out. Might give it another go later and stick to 1.0 since I hope my progress is still on the GC memory card. I remember I was A ranking it all and it was very difficult with the revised scoring system added
My coworkers were talking about pensions today. They're a little closer to retirement (within the next 10 years). Cause I started later in life, they told me I'd probably be working 30 full years (until I'm well into my 60s). They wondered what I'd do about it all. I told em "does 2055 sound like it'll be good years going forward from that or bad." And that's probably the biggest difference between generations (as real as they are) lol. One hand you have something stable but you had to work for, the other feels like the end of a thread of an unraveling sweater
So this is capeshit, my mom is watching end game and it's the part where the bow guy and Scarlett Johansen have to figure out who's gonna be sacrificed to get the soul stone. Doesn't Bow Guy... have a wife and kids? When it's time to recount the story, is he gonna tell them that he sacrificed the one he loved the most - Scarlett Johansen?
