Hello lovelies, I am a (trans)Woman who is still in the process of discovering herself!
I have been working up the courage to be who I am for so long, I am excited to be figuring things out.
Pre-HRT, pre-fashion-sense, and pre-confidence.
Any and all tips and advice from more experienced women are welcome!
- Comment on im on day 11 of waiting for my up to 10 day delivery package and its maybe getting delivered today 1 day ago:
And if you got to week 9 and it’s almost week 10, would you not be mildly upset about it?
I remember slow shipping and was usually upset if my “6-8 week” took the full 8 weeks.
- Comment on As I don't say I will kill the president, can I at least allude to threatening? Like the 86 47 guy? 5 days ago:
My first memory of “86"was from the princess diaries when Mia asks” can we 86 the flags", referring to the country-of-origin flags on diplomats cars.
I’ve never understood how someone can twist “86 47” to mean to kill.
If you hear someone say “remove that man” and think “these people want me dead” the you’re clearly not of rational mind, and are paranoid.
- Comment on Boobs in unexpected places 1 week ago:
I wish my family would be this chill about it.
It’s gonna be an interesting day when they eventually figure it out.
- Comment on I Stand. 1 week ago:
Goddamn ableist bastard!
- Comment on Crazy Party Anon drinks a glass of ranch 2 weeks ago:
Anon went to a party with an acquaintance, not a friend.
- Comment on Heh Heh Good Job Boys 2 weeks ago:
To me it’s the fact they all look like children trying to feel like big boys in their dad’s too-large clothes (which is fitting (pun intended) since at least those medals are inherited, not for things they themselves have done)
- Comment on A new tool exposes the $1.7 billion union-busting industry. You can search every law firm, consultant, and individual attorney 3 weeks ago:
Burn their houses down, their corporate headquarters, maybe their factories.
Order is dealer’s choice.
- Comment on Video games 3 weeks ago:
It’s like hearing someone say “there were no strong female leads in movies before the Hunger Games”
- Comment on Remember the reason for the season 3 weeks ago:
I have never had a job where I am not required to work on labor day…
- Comment on Anon is a Witcher 3 weeks ago:
In fairness, that’s not far off from reality.
- Comment on If You Rented a Car or Bought Weed Recently, Your License Is Likely for Sale on the Dark Web. Protect Your Identity Now 4 weeks ago:
Having been to quite a few week shops across Michigan and Ohio, you’d just be unable to buy weed, and once you’ve refused and made a mild scene, they’re calling all the weed shops in the area with your description to tell them you’re acting suspicious.
While I’m not a fan of the practice, it’s basically impossible to buy from a dispensary in many places without them wanting to scan your ID. Especially if your state has limits on how much you can buy per month.
- Comment on It's porn 4 weeks ago:
He can’t stop shitting his own pants, so my guess is “no”
- Comment on Park benches don't "open" until 10am 4 weeks ago:
Honestly I just grab any locks I find while out (like if I find one on the side of the road) and occasionally when I see a cheap-but-not-masterlock I contemplate buying it for shits and giggles.
For a starter lock, I have several master locks that range from the cheap “smack it to open” to actual security pins, but I always want them to be easy to pick so I can introduce people without overwhelming them.
My favorite is one that I… appropriated from a previous job (accidentally took it home and forgot about it) it’s a security lock shaped like a circle to keep people away from the shackle with security pins AND can false set. It’s the “oh so you think you’re hot shit because you got 3 locks open?” lock. I’ll have to dig through some moving boxes to find the brand
- Comment on Park benches don't "open" until 10am 4 weeks ago:
A stiff breeze could do it, but you can also just hit it with a rock if it doesn’t pop open from a stern glance.
I had a shitty 40mm masterlock on my locker in middle school and I wouldn’t even bother with a key, if just yank hard on it once or twice and the jostling was enough to pop it free.
- Comment on You better lube the fuck up 4 weeks ago:
The blood would act as lube soon enough.
- Comment on Park benches don't "open" until 10am 4 weeks ago:
I’m well aware, and unfortunately I am in one of those states. If they ever decide to search me and my purse, they’ll find it.
Mere possession is considered proof of criminal intent. But I also always have a clear acrylic lock and easy padlock to show interested people how to pick a lock. It’s fun and cheap as a hobby. So if I ever do get caught, at least I can make the argument of it being a hobby more convincing. I don’t really expect to get off easy because of that, but if I’m ever caught and searched by cops, having a set of lock picks will probably not be my biggest concern.
- Comment on Park benches don't "open" until 10am 4 weeks ago:
“the homeless” are always used as the excuse for stuff like this, but (as you are an example of) plenty of people “rough sleep” without being homeless. I’ve never slept on a bench, but I’ve spent a few nights in state parks with a hammock due to not wanting to be around my family for varying reasons. Once because I was supposed to be sleeping at a friend’s house but went to a party and decided fuck this imma leave.
It’s funny you mention reading because I’ve actually been harassed by cops for “loitering” in the park when I was sitting in my car reading.
- Comment on Park benches don't "open" until 10am 4 weeks ago:
I never considered this before, but now I’m glad I carry lock picks with me everywhere. That shitty padlock would take 10 seconds and I’d be on my way with a new beginner practice lock.
Fuck hostile architecture, fuck anywhere that makes an already shitty situation worse by telling the homeless “we don’t view you as people, go die somewhere else”
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
If mocking religions alienates me from the people who are pushing their beliefs, I welcome it.
- Comment on Why are there so many shit posts about beans? 4 weeks ago:
I kind of enjoy the crossovers, since they’re usually something off-the-wall and I like absurdist humor.
But yeah the “beans in everything” and “here’s corn” ones are pretty low effort. That’s not to say they never get a chuckle, I just usually don’t care for them.
Maybe I just haven’t seen mothposting enough to be tired of it.
- Comment on Food served to US service men & women. 4 weeks ago:
As a former enlisted who thankfully got medical’d out of the service very early, the ONLY thing I find mildly infuriating 8s that it looks like my old school lunches.
Why do they deserve to get better food than our children?
Anyone still in can kiss my ass. Most enlisted joined within the last 10 years where it’s been a ShitShow since Trump1.0. I joined when I thought Obama was going to be different, but am glad I got out not long after it became clear how much he loves drone strikes. I would have just gone awol when trump showed up.
Modern military deserves the food we give to homeless people. Once we improve the lives of those who have it worst, we can think about getting them better food.
- Comment on Why are there so many shit posts about beans? 4 weeks ago:
Orbs are still my favorite contemplation.
- Comment on Wages never caught up with costs 4 weeks ago:
Didn’t all the original blue marks get taken away? So if he had one before muskrat took over, it shouldn’t be there anymore unless they paid for it
- Comment on Don't Worry About Retirement, Millennials 4 weeks ago:
Don’t worry, it’s only a matter of time before they toss you in jail for attempting to draft dodge and forcibly detransition you, thus making you eligible.
- Comment on Downvoted! 4 weeks ago:
I mean, there’s a chance they scraped their knuckles. But I find the scuff worth the punch.
- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 4 weeks ago:
You don’t have self-control when you start using them.
When you’ve seen an otherwise rational, smart adult ruin their entire family and steal from their own children in order to get a fix after “just trying it once”, you understand all the self control in the world won’t be enough.
- Comment on Olive Branch MS mayor refusing to lower flag for Dolly 4 weeks ago:
You can get behind not lowering it because a person who spent their entire life helping people and encouraging and enabling others to do the same is somehow comparable to a racist bigoted piece of shit?
- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 4 weeks ago:
If they’re saying ‘violent terrorists’ and listing antifa and cop city protesters, then they’re saying groups like al-qaeda are on par with protesters, and therefore must not be that bad.
They’re making the word meaningless.
- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 4 weeks ago:
It’s honestly deligitimizing the word terrorism.
It’s like the “war on drugs”. The DARE program (an anti-drug program cops run in schools) was the single best promoter of drugs I’ve ever seen. When they tell people all drugs will kill you and thc is just as bad as heroin, when you try a joint or vape for the first time and don’t get immediately addicted or die, you think “well I guess heroin and crack can’t be that bad either”
If you call everything that’s against fascism, bigotry, and hate a “terrorist group” it really makes all the legitimate terrorism extremist groups look much tamer, and less people will think of them as terrorists.
- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 4 weeks ago:
I guess we’re ignoring all the labeling of antifa as a terrorist organization?
Anything that is mildly popular that goes against the regime will always be labeled “terrorism”
