It's been a year since I started HRT and I've got a D-cup holy crap. Maybe I should have started wearing bras earlier... lol. At least now I can work on getting a collection going.

complaining about gender clinic again

mid-may: coincidentally finds out that the gender clinic offers [resource] they never informed me or nearly anyone else about, gets help from one of the nurses to order [resource] except she's going to send me more info over email first :)

(late july: my GP can also order [resource] for me and does so, it's different than the one i ordered through gender clinic because i wasn't sure if gender clinic was going to send me the [resource i ordered] or not. GP order goes through immediately)

early august, back from travelling: well i haven't received any emails nor word about [resource] so i'll shoot them a message

mid-august: well i haven't received any replies to my message so i'll call them even though their call times are a scarce two hours every weekday. i'm told they'll call me back over the week

this monday: over a week has passed and i received no call. i will call them again! the lady on the phone says i should contact the regional centre because that's where they send [resource orders] :) and if i don't want to do that i should call [different number that has call times only twice a week]

today: "hello special gender clinic number i really want a follow up about this thing one of your nurses promised but i have been completely unable to get a single word about despite contacting you multiple times"

"oh no!! i see you sent us a message weeks ago and nobody answered it! this isn't supposed to happen!"

"one would think"

(and then she actually emailed me!!!!! yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS TIME IT BETTER GO THROUGH I SWEAR TO GOD.)

I think I’ve peaked, how could I draw something better than beautiful magical transition of my beautiful magical boygirlfriend . . .

I can’t

JUSTIFICATION:

"ALRIGHT SO, She's literally so quirky. Basically, as I was playing throughout the game, it was made clear to me that she's not- very traditionally masculine hero type. She's a dork and oddball, and clearly is fine with her gender, there's no ingame pointers to it but I just

I think that the way she talks and the way she acts is very much like me, she is autistic and has adhd undoubtedly, goes through the entire game with a new lease on life and uses it to fight an evil corporation. I think if she transitioned she'd dismantle so many more evil corpos.

She just like, is, girlie, trust me. She has such failgirl energy.

Quote from me and my friend talking about it, we're both trans

Her: "this is a guy? you sure?"

Me: "This is a cis manly man???? You're entirely sure about that????"" - @cheeseofthecake

Part 1: The History of Earth and The Rise of Humanity

(placeholder image or the Odyessy Space Ark)

Long ago, in a solar system inside a place known as the Milky Way Galaxy, there was a planet known as Earth. At first, it would seem fairly unremarkable compared to its fellow planets in its solar system. It wasn't close to the sun like Mercury, and It wasn't covered in clouds like Venus. It most definitely wasn't gigantic like Jupiter, and It didn't have rings like Saturn, and its axis wasn't tilted like Uranus, and it lacked a twin like Neptune, and though it would later lose it's place as a planet, Pluto stood out as it was not only the farthest planet from the sun, but also the smallest planet in the solar system. The closest planet in terms of size was Mars, but even that stood out with it's bright red surface landscape.

Yes, indeed. Earth should have been the most unremarkable planet of it's contemporaries. But; there was one thing the planet had that all its brethren didn't. The ability to support life.

For you see, unlike every other planet which was desolate and devoid of any living being earth had somehow surpassed all odds and developed the right conditions for lifeforms of all shapes and sizes to not only live on it but thrive as well.

Over the years, many lifeforms had claimed earth as their own, and some even dominated the planet as the top dogs such as dinosaurs during the Mesozoic Era, or the great wooly mammoth in The Ice Age.

But despite their numbers and size, these beings would all eventually die out and go extinct, leaving their niches to be taken over by a new type of life that would inevitably meet the same end as their predecessors.

This process would go on for eons, with Earth constantly in a state of change as it's landscape and atmosphere transformed, so did the many beings that inhabited it too. Until, one day, one species would rise above all the rest and claim its place as the true inheritor of the planet; Humanity.

Unlike its peers, this race of beings advanced far past its roots as simple-minded animals and gained the gift of intelligence and self-awareness, eventually developing their own languages and societies all across the planet, and claiming it as their own.

But this advancement would eventually cause humanity to become disconnected from its roots as simple animals, as they came to see themselves as above nature, destroying landscapes and whole environments to build their cities and factories with their machinery, driving other lifeforms to extinction for the many products they would produce to the masses for currency and power.

Eventually, the once green and luscious planet would be reduced to a shell of its former self; polluted and grey; practically unlivable! But despite this, humans continued their trek of destruction believing that they could take and take from their mother planet without ever having to give back. But as the earth was continually robbed of its resources, instead of focusing on itself Humanity turned its attention to the stars...

I'm not sure we (humanity) will ever meaningfully do interstellar travel, or have an interstellar society

we might colonise other solar systems, either through generation, sleeper, or seed ships

Using sleeper ships requires us to work out that whole cryonics / deep hibernation thing, and that seems unlikely

Seed ships are easier, lot less difficult to freeze embryos or even gametes than a whole human, but then we also need to work out how to produce a society from that and that sounds hard, eh, feels ethically dodgy and prone to failure, even more so than other methods

This leaves us with generation ships, step one build a self-contained environment in which minimum 5000 people can live for a few centuries or more, almost seems more sensible to build a Dyson swarm

people who are not into winter sports: I think having world cup in december was actually neat, the weather is cold and gloomy, so sitting at home watching football was so nice :)

me not having time and energy for any other hobby than watching sports, not knowing which sport to watch first, frantically trying to keep up: everything happening at once! ski jumping at silly hours! I feel like I hallucinated the whole past month!!!

Transitions: The Spackle of Art!

The other day I wrote some transitional passages for Galaxy Federal, connecting two preestablished scenes.

Transitional passages are like the mortar and spackle of artistic construction. They're necessary, but forever peripheral. (Though I suppose there probably are some artists who thrive in it.) For me though, writing transitional matter is an uncommon state. It doesn't come nearly as naturally to me as main scene-writing does, and I spend a lot less time doing it. When I was writing the Prelude, a lot of it also came very late in the process, as a necessity rather than a pleasure in itself. It was quite a challenge, worthy of boasting of my skill as a professional author, for me to elevate this text to make it interesting and compelling. (In my opinion anyway.)

This transcends my writing and reflects my entire personality: In composing music, I always struggle with my transitions between the prominent melodic sections. In listening to music of all genres, I almost always much prefer the main sections over the transitions. Same with reading books, watching movies, etc.

But because of its relative alienness to me, I also have a certain fascination with transitional passages. I tend to notice them, and I appreciate them when they are especially well-done. Some are so subtle and well-integrated that you can scarcely see them. Other transitions are much bigger, but necessarily worse.

Such was the space I found myself working in the other day: This particular transitional passage calls for thousands of words of text, and I obliged two-and-a-half thousand on my first pass, during which time I got to show all sorts of things happening! My highly granular, ground-level, play-by-play scenes—which comprise most of my main scenes as compared to the less common "40,000 foot narrative epic view" type—tend to flow slowly. But in a transitional passage, hours can pass in the space of a single sentence. Whole conversations can be clipped to one or two lines of dialogue. Environmental descriptions can show the progression of time rather than a moment in time. It's quite literally a change of pace for me, most of the time.

I tried to use this quality to flesh out the fact of "Cherry being a starship captain." I am greatly interested in the nitty-gritty of this; I seek to incorporate a lot of verisimilitude into the text. Virtually all editors, and most writers, would single stuff like this out as the poster child for bloated text that needs to be edited down for tightness and pacing. But I firmly reject that. I really just want to write stories about people "at the office," proverbially speaking. I think the criticism that this kind of stuff isn't interesting is true, but only provisionally: It depends upon the underlying activities themselves being boring, and/or the writer not being great at writing them.

In that sense, action and "PLOT" are a crutch that many writers depend upon to cope with limited writing skills. We've all met people in our lives who are so intrinsically interesting and good at telling stories that they could literally describe an hour of washing the dishes and we'd be hanging on their every word. We've all been there! This is a real thing.

I, myself, am not actually all that good as a yarn-spinner, bard, or anecdotist. But what I lack in a talent for gripping storytelling I hope and aspire to make up for with the stories themselves just being intrinsically interesting. I've seen other writers pull this off. If the subject matter is interesting, the writer doesn't have to be a great anecdotist.

So the question in this particular case is: Is being a starship captain...interesting?

And my answer to that is: "Yes and no, in all the ways you would expect, but to some extent it doesn't matter because no one actually writes about starship captains having 'a regular day at the office.'" The normalcy of starship captains' jobs is always being interrupted by PLOT. So it's actually quite rare to get to see a captain walking around doing regular stuff at length. That rarity gives me more room to depict realities that perhaps wouldn't be interesting to read about in every sci-fi book over and over again as a convention of the genre, but definitely would be interesting to read about at least a few times.

I put it to you that you probably don't know what a starship captain actually does in normal circumstances. You could logically deduce some of it, but have you ever really seen it play out (in fiction, obviously)? I think that would be enjoyable to read about, at least every once in a while.

Well, the transitional passage that I started writing this week definitely adds some more spackle to that curious edifice!
