  • I’m mostly worried about my grandmother - it’s been at least 6 years and she still treats my cousin’s bf like a girl despite having it explained to her multiple times that he’s a man. She’s definitely a product of her generation, but it’s the refusal to listen and even try to learn that gets to me. Other than that everyone’s been cool with it, though my parents are still slipping up constantly. As for everything else it’s going surprisingly well so far; I’ve already started noticing some stuff that should usually take a couple months to kick in


  • No physical changes yet (aside from one dream I had as a kid) but they have started incorporating various transition-related scenarios already. Only been on E less than a month and not even a full week after my first shot I was already having dreams where I demonstrated the whole process to unknown observers. I’ve also had a couple where I’ve gotten into arguments and cut off less accepting family members, so that’s been a Fun™ preview before it inevitability happens irl

    Transfem enby here - the way it works for me (can’t speak for anyone else) is essentially as two valid options. Some of my friends alternate, some stick with one, but if you’re going to pick just one then those are the correct options. Can’t guarantee it’ll be the same for others with multiple valid pronouns but most will be happy to explain if you ask. Personally I list them from most to least preferred but they’re both right so as long as it’s one of those I don’t care that much






  • Same… I’m trying to get things sorted as soon as I can, and hopefully starting monotherapy soon, but even then I’m still gonna have to keep an eye on supply chains and government policies potentially forever from the look of things. I’m scared, for myself and everyone else both here and in the rest of the world. None of us asked for this but it’s all framed like it’s our fault somehow







  • As someone who has abused it and kinda had a problem with it - that shit is poison. Literally. It has the same mechanism as deadly nightshade and a lot of poisonous plants, and it can be absolutely hellish. Totally legal in most places for some reason though. Feels like shit but paradoxically is also super addictive
