Says you. We the transmasculine population refuse to let mullets die

That would be the dysphoria flannel shirt

Pre-testosterone was written, post is visual. Can’t explain it

Gender =/= interests and personality. We all have a diverse range of those things and it’s never the reason we transitioned - our gender is something more core , abstract and personal than that. There are butch transfemmes, there are femboy transmascs. Many trans men I know were very feminine children (some are now very feminine men), I wasn’t, but we all had the same sense of wrongness in the way we were shaped and treated by people that all clicked into place when we tried to change that.

The reason trans folks may (but not always) cling to gender norms is often to pass better and stop other people gendering us wrongly. I love being a trans guy with long hair and nail varnish but it means that I get misgendered at my job constantly, which causes a conflict in myself because it doesn’t feel like who I am. Makes those things I love a bit less enjoyable :/

Neither trans men nor trans women become more aggressive due to HRT! Early on, you might have some mood swings as your body adjusts (you’re going through puberty after all) but my understanding is that because of the regimented way we receive it, we’re actually much less likely to get those sorts of shifts because our hormone levels are more controlled than cis peoples. But it also just depends on the person, T has made my partner a bit more crabby but I’ve chilled tf out. It sounds like this particular person just has a very reactive personality

I would still want to transition. I was a very proud soft “tomboy” growing up, parents who encouraged it, had no reason to not be perfectly happy as a butch woman except for the fact I still felt a disconnect and dissociation from my body that I couldn’t place. I tried different pronouns online, put on a binder and suddenly I crashed back home into myself. Felt like I was in my body rather than floating around it and dressing it up and no longer felt misshapen like a crushed bottle. I still have shoulder length hair, still paint my nails, I’m just perceived and look a way that feels right to me now.

I also have a trans man friend I knew from childhood who was always very feminine, mainly in his love of dolls but also a very gentle and sensitive personality. Surprised us all when he came out really. But again, it’s nothing to do with our personality or interests (and there are loads of transmasc femboys too), it’s something more abstract and core to our sense of self than that

Minimum wage, early to mid 20s. Many are graduated or dropped out students TBF so needed a laptop but the others who never went to uni still have one, mainly to play Sims/Stardew Valley, watch movies on dodgy websites, or write fiction on

You think people don’t have laptops? Everyone I know does. 22 yo

Best show

Book worth a read? Saw it on sale earlier and looked interesting

Ship it to Linux if possible lol

Prog rock and prog metal still exist. King Gizzard and Blood Ceremony are two. BC has been likened to a metal infused Pink Floyd but with their own twists. You’re just not looking for it.

Zen has some cool features like being able to split-view two tabs in the same window and preview links without opening them. The colour coded workspaces (should u choose to colour code them) is also useful and aesthetically pleasing

Hey, you can put Linux on many handheld gaming machines like like ASUS ROG Ally (like Bazzite OS for instance) and there are a few Linux systems that aim to fully emulate a console experience on PC. All Android phones run on Linux and you can get custom OS’s if you root them, like Lineage. So it’s not such a silly idea!

I’m also prone to idiocy + walking into traffic so that’s great news

I got a silly Dutch game called Wuppo: Definitive Edition on sale for £1 a few years ago. Not sure why I impulsively got it but I ended up loving it so much

I’m also prone to ear infections so I’ll have to try these out. I tend to use over-ear headphones 24/7 because of it but sometimes if I’m walking home at night I feel safer with in ears

Mine is also my cheap £20 rice cooker. Found out I can make Quinoa in it recently and very happy

Disabled people had nothing to do with this man come on

I’ve been boycotting McDonalds since October 2023 mate what are u on
