Didn’t have a chance to write up a detailed post, either on a fruit or the topic I was originally thinking about. I think they’re neat and they taste good.

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.

taking about assimilationists and patriarchy
I’m tired of this genre of posts I keep seeing on other sites where they’ll say something like “trans people existing doesn’t affect you” or like “no one is asking you to change your beliefs, just to treat others with respect” or did stuff like that.
Trans people (and queer people in general) existing IS a threat to the gender system, and so is a threat to people deeply invested in it. I DO want people to change thier deeply held beliefs. I am a radical, I hate society, I want to change it, I want to destroy patriarchy. Assimilationism is not a path to liberation.
Real!! I understand wanting to be stealth and just be cis, but tbh I can’t help but think the trans people assimilating are losing some of the most important parts of being trans. It’s something special, not something to hide away.

“no one is asking you to change your beliefs, just to treat others with respect”
This one in particular, like no your beliefs are literally just wrong and unfounded and should be changed. The whole “treat people with respect even if you disagree” thing is such bullshit, at least in this case. You can’t “respect” me if you think (whatever horrible transphobic thing you can imagine). Respect isn’t not calling people slurs.
Okay idk why but something clicked in my brain and now all the essays I’ve been writing are gender and identity stuff. I’ve written so many in the past month after not writing any in my entire time at uni so far. Not complaining since they’re fun and easy to write, it’s just weird that it’s happened suddenly.
Been exercising more and eating more healthily this week and I’m starting to like my body just a little more :)

There’s 2 thing I would have NEVER expected as a teenager:
-
That I’m a woman
-
That I would join a knitting group (well not yet. I still have to wait a few weeks)
I was looking for a new hobby and thought I would give it a try, because I found crocheting quite enjoyable as a child and I REALLY want some nice, custom sweaters.
But holy moly is yarn expensive.
(perfect emoji lol)
I just spent 100€ for 2 circular needle pairs, some basic tools and 22 skeins of wool, and almost all of those things were on sale. Like, it’s legit cheaper to just buy a sweater, unknit it and use that as a source of wool, because the prices in the fashion industry are just that insanely low.
Prime example of how ridiculous capitalism is.
Yarn is so expensiiiivvvveeeeeee and then before you know it you have saved up a ton of one off or two off skiens and need to find small projects to knit
I’ve already bought a bunch of one-off skeins.
But I can use them for practice or experimenting, I guess.
Experimenting is always fun!
Congrats on finding a hobby group, and having a neat hobby in the first place!
Thank you.
Yeah, my social worker has tried to get me to join one for 5 years now, but I never did until now because of dysphoria kicking my ass.
how fun!!
I hope it will be, because usually I hate monotonous tasks. But if I can listen to stuff or chat with others at the same time, I think I will love it.

needles n stuff
Did my first DIY injection yesterday. I was kinda anxious before if i could pull through because i’ve never shot up anything, but i had some of my friends around to support me and it seems i’m more cold blooded than i thought, even got told i have a steady hand and that everbody else present had a harder time during their first try. Haven’t felt this much like a big girl since my first laser session.
congratsssss!!! proud of u
That’s amazing! You’re crazy capable for having a steady hand at it.
Hello gamers, I got my blood work back and don’t really know what to make of it
- T: ~90 ng/dL
- E: ~65 pg/mL
Is this normal for 2.5 months on HRT? I was on 4mg estradiol a day for the first month and a half and then bumped up to 6mg, plus 100mg Spiro a day (unchanged throughout). I definitely missed doses here and there, but maybe only a handful throughout.
E doesnt come in ng/dL, are you sure you are reading the levels correctly? It should be pg/mL or pmol/L.
Oh yup I misread it’s pg/mL
okiii well general recommended levels are E2: 100-200 pg/mL (367-734 pmol/L) and T: < 50 ng/dL (1.7 nmol/L) so u pawbably neeeddd a bit higher dose. how are u taking the E?
Oral tablet/pill. I’m interested in injections because I hear people often respond to that better and I already do weekly injections w/ semaglutide so what’s another shot?
Do you just swallow the pill? putting it under the tongue or letting it dissolve in your cheek gets more of it straight to the bloodstream.
Also with the gel just put it right on the girldick, it’s about three times as effective than anywhere else.
i have no tricks for injections
Shot tricks:
For DIY you can often use 31g insulin needles because the liquid is thinner than the perscribed stuff and subq has comprable uptake rates to IM (to my knowledge at least)
You can use use a vial for more than just a month, as long as its kept steril and the stopper is fine.
If you kinda squeeze a squigly with your skin you can trap the estradiol in there after taking the needle out, if youre having issues with leakage.
Thats all i got, and it aint medical advice lol
now this is
posting
very nice
subq and im have identical levels with all esters except EUn
Not really surprising. There’s a lot of variation from person to person it seems, so starting doses often are not enough, but serve to get an idea of what is needed.
