Fucking fashion, man.

(About to put the model on Thingiverse, if anyone really cares!)

I keep seeing and meeting trans people who have a much easier experience of medically transitioning than me - I had to do the full year RLE before I was permitted to begin medical transitioning.

I think it’s awesome! Hell yeah! Fuck doctors! And fuck all the other people who had it rough and decide that it should be that way for everyone!

Lately I’m trying to focus on enjoying what’s cool and available instead of fixating on one specific, hard to get thing. It’s both fun - I never would’ve checked out some of what I’m reading if I didn’t! - and a little frustrating, haha.

me: ascends to the astral plane
astral spirits: we will answer one question
me: what the fuck is a typical tattoo green anyways

I’m currently listening to a mix of nostalgic music for me. As a youth I liked basically three kinds of music:
1) emo nu metal
2) Christian rock
3) ultraviolent rap music

It’s a lot of mood whiplash!

I’ve been reading the work of historical psychologists, and damn, if I had that much confidence and conviction based on absolutely nothing I’d be the first no anesthesia open heart surgeon to become godking of all nations by complete unanimous vote.

dudes make techbros look humble!

But it sure does say a lot about the capitalists who fucking worship this book that they don’t realize that they’re meant to be the lazy, cruel, and eventually dead drunkard who starved his employee-analogues, and the vile local farmers who praise the pigs for their brutality and kill their own employee-analogues???

A lot of capitalists see Animal Farm as being super pro-capitalist, but the message is not “capitalism is good” more than “everything always sucks no matter what and it will never get any better no matter what” (in fact the cool and wise self insert character says pretty much exactly that...)

I don’t think that’s a good message either, but he was pretty clear he saw the “boss” figure in the “capitalist” system as an autocrat, too...

changed insurance plans, which meant changing pharmacies.

the new pharmacy is better than the old one! the line is much shorter and the staff don’t look at me funny. and my medication is cheaper so far! I was able to get all my prescriptions transferred too and only one needs a prior auth!

so hopefully this can be an easy transition and not horrible...

unfortunately my therapist is still out of network, but she’s not too expensive

after a forty-six year gap, one of my favorite bands put out their second album. next time you think about the wait between Netflix seasons, remember - it could always be worse!

The Fanfiction Report: ???

Today I got a 70$ pair of shoes in good condition for 4$ because the soles are cracked in one spot.

I’m amazed at how much people don’t fix things... some things are hard to fix, but given the material you’d be fine supergluing these with a gel superglue honestly. A little sanding to hide and even the seam, and they’re good as new.

The Minneapolis Writer’s Workshop has a strict no-“”censorship””, ALL-work-allowed policy.

I have light-BDSM queer oviposition furry bug-and-snake-people porn.

If I was 5% less shy, I know what I’d be presenting at open read night next week. :V

Julianna says hi and make sure to get enough sleep!

happy birthday Maya Amano from Persona 2!!! :)

Working on my latest novel has made me realize how bad my internalized anti-psychotic ableism is, because I pretty much picked the character’s delusions from ones I’ve previously had and moved past, but I feel so ashamed to write it and even worse about the idea of sharing it...

I don’t really have a good answer, but I’m upset about it. :(
