it won’t be forever!

we have a sex comm now?

it’s not an autism problem, everyone struggles with that for a couple of years. changing your default larynx position takes awhile.

less the relationship and more “you dumb bitch, of course you can transition. here’s makeup, clothes, hormones, and health insurance for surgeries.”

wife: I’m happy to be alive! what did you do to me?? ahhhhhhh

I can fix her, but it actually worked

new migraine doc just called the new med he prescribed me the hammer of thor and told me some guy called Phil would be contacting me about filling the prescription. I asked what the name of the pharmacy was and he said Phil. I think I like this new doc. a good old fashioned back room drug deal for a medication that deals with my migraines is exactly what I need right now because we’ve tried literally all the normal shit.

it’s the old saying “remain silent and be thought a fool or speak and forever remove all doubt.” self-awareness is a skill and calling someone out for lacking it isn’t gatekeeping to begin with. like if the topic were related to Bonercelli’s lived experience, this would be gatekeeping - but it’s not. he’s pontificating about a genocide thousands of miles away from where he lives.

memoryholing the Snowden leaks

they get used to it. don’t listen to their whining.

this rules. we have the best comrades.

thank you so much for the measurements. this is incredibly helpful.

rock it

so I went looking for this a couple of years ago and it doesn’t really exist. everyone I talked to in the trans voice community said keep working on trans voice stuff and just sing a ton. fwiw, singing really helps make trans voice easier because vocal control is key. you just keep practicing and practicing and practicing and eventually you don’t suck, apparently?

yeah, I was lucky to have already taken Classical Mechanics prior to Quantum Mechanics (it wasn’t a prereq so most of my classmates jumped straight into QM), so the math was all perfectly sensible. but the second any prof started trying to use English to interpret the math, I started having these moments where I’d have to sit back and think about the words coming out of their mouths, and sitting with how it was all actually gibberish. Feynman’s “shut up and calculate” started to feel incredibly valid really fast, whereas prior to QM, I was under the impression that physics was natural philosophy. it’s not and QM was the breaking point, at least for me, personally.

they don’t actually spin but they’re little bar magnets as if they do. if you charge a sphere and spin it, you’ll generate exactly the same kind of bar magnet, but they don’t actually spin. and just like bar magnets, like repels like. but they’re neither bar magnets nor spinning. why don’t they spin? because they’re point masses, which don’t have any extent. but actually, you can’t really observe them as point masses because they’re waves.

^^ this was the exact point at which I said quantum mechanics wasn’t for me and I’m done with physics, after completing most of a degree. it sort of all makes sense but at the same time it completely doesn’t. it all makes sense as pure math but the second you try to make sense of the math, sense goes out the window.

is it really prediction if it’s just the same cycle over and over again? it’s like predicting “water will be wet tomorrow”.

iirc, the question that ignited a war was “are outdoor cats vegan?” – meaning “can vegans own outdoor cats?” it devolved quickly into “should outdoor cats be killed?” with radical environmentalists on one side and felinitarians on the other, while the rest of us

MOOD

effects on the skin happen first. so body odor changes first, within the first couple of weeks, then your skin starts to soften, over the next year. for a lot of people, these happen from suppressing T alone.
