#i have been on hrt for a year

[marklikely]

the movie did such a good job at putting me in isabel/owens shoes honestly because i was looking at tara/maddys monologue scene through a lens of just not letting go of nostalgia so i was like 'oh my god do not get in that hole in the ground. this is crazy' but then two minutes later with hindsight i Understood and was like 'NO YOU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN IN THE HOLE IN THE GROUND GO BACK'

varric giving rook his shaving mirror to keep kind of hits different when your rook is a trans man I have to say

honestly? 2024 has been the best year of my entire life. things really started looking up since 2023 broadly speaking and this year has been the first time in.......... i don't even know how long..... i've started feeling like a person & Having Hope For The Future :)

My hot take is that the term "egg" should be a self identifying label (ex: back when I was an egg)

only and not used in other people because you don't know their gender identity or how they'll develop as a person

It's so weird and uncomfortable when people proudly call others an egg as if it's a game instead of letting people express themselves in a way without the public trying to nail down their "real gender"

Looked in the mirror just now, realized I can't even *make* myself see the boy anymore. I made it, and I'm beautiful, I'm me. It feels... awesome.

the israeli doctor character in Emilia Pérez: look lady, I don't know who your MR. MAN CLIENT DUDE is but all I do know is that he will never be a woman even if he gets all the surgeries from your little song that you just sang about, even if I do them all at once in one go at one time, literally the same day every single surgery.

Emilia Pérez's Lawyer, Zoë Saldaña: that's where you're wrong, HE will be a woman only after you agree to give HIM all the surgeries I just sang about at once in one go at one time. You will see HIM as a woman once you give HIM a mammoplasty (yas) rhinoplasty (yas) vaginoplasty (yas) laryngoplasty (yas) chondrolaryngoplasty (yas) all at once in one go at one time. Let HIM explain to you why HE will be a woman!

Emilia Pérez (he/him): I murder thousands of people every year and you will be one of them.

the israeli doctor character in Jacques Audiard's film Emilia Pérez: okay I will do it... I will give he/him all the surgeries. He will receive every single surgery he could possibly need in one day in one go, literally the same day every single surgery mentioned.

sorry for my lack of knowledge about the world everyone 😔 i’ve been hit in the head a lot when i was younger and it made me very stupid

i’m back again with a question for anyone who may have an answer or an idea, but does anyone have a face care routine/products that’s hydrating & good for both sensitive dry & oily skin?

if i get things for dry skin it messes with the oil an makes that way worse, if i do something for the oil it makes my skin dry out real bad— i can’t seem to win an my poor face is suffering lmao

i’ve tried cerve, cetaphil, aveeno, an so on— hadn’t had a lot of good luck depending on what i’m using it for, like for example so far with the lotions they’re like to oily or something an my skin gets really shiny an my pores clog that or the worst part it makes my skin feel weird an gross an i lowkey freak the fuck out :’((

another little update:

I finally got injections covered by insurance 🥹😭

[bogkeep]

my special skill is that i'm not afraid of emails. in fact i vastly prefer sending emails because i can do it whenever i have time... the alternative is usually making phone calls, and the phone call times are pretty much always work hours at work days, AKA the SAME TIME AS WHEN I'M AT SCHOOL!!!! this really sucks if the only time i have the opportunity to sit down and do Important Paperwork Stuff is the weekend or the evenings!!! Let Me Send A Written Message Please Please Please

"...my one year anniversary being on testosterone!!! I had a vision of capturing my total gender euphoria [...] My trans and nonbinary body is divine I honor my body as it is now, and as it will be as I continue to become more and more myself..."

(me watching a video abt how women get misdiagnosed consistently bc the doctors are always like Umm its just anxiety) haha yeah thats so true!! That's why i transitioned!! now they blame it on my hormones just trying to level out 🥰🥰🥰

I feel numb and angry and deeply, deeply sad. how can so many people be so blind and stupid and hateful? it genuinely makes me lose my trust in the people I see passing by me. and I don't want it to but so many more people came out to support such a vile excuse of a human shell. it's so hard to know that so many people picked their desire, their fleeting hope of touching power and wealth over the well being of millions. at least they will burn with us when he razes the economy

Why didn't you just go on T for fat redistribution?

fair question! a few reasons, among them that I know fat distribution is both one of the slowest changes to happen on T and one of the fastest to reverse itself if you ever stop, whereas getting fat cells sucked out of you with a straw is fast and fairly fucking permanent. and with my (former) waist-to-hip ratio I was doubtful anything short of a miracle would do much tbh. so given how impatient I was to tackle my biggest source of body dysphoria and how unlikely it seemed gradual measures would help I was super down to nuke that shit from orbit

these past few days of presumably much higher estradiol than I’ve had before when on tablets have me remembering this post

like i’m just sitting here crying for the Nth time tonight thinking “damn, this is some good shit”
