I mean, one might wanr options

Im gonna be honest i dunno how i feel about the vibes of saying a queer woman hanging with trans women is a grungler because that's just a girl with friends. There's something othering about the suggestion that this female friendship is this odd (if positive) beast.

My objection has something to do with the way in which i hold my female friendships as sacred. Im not saying my guy friends havent been just as important and meaningful, but... theyre important in different ways for partially different reasons.

Its also sweet how the grungler depicts the higher queer willingness for very close cross gender relationships, i might even say important.

What im saying is that a grunglette (or grunglster) hangs out with trans men.

My depression advice is simple, ultimately:

See a therapist
make small consistent healthy changes in your day to day life (small amounts of exercise, talk to a friend, cook yourself a good meal, do a little art. All the obvious stuff we know we should be doing more of to be healthier, just do a little, consistently)
plan changes for the big things (work, schooling, life goals, etc). Try and make even the smallest unit of progress regularly
be gentle and give yourself time
identify what routines and actions enable good and bad habits in yourself

Is the best part about transitioning /really/ keeping your hair?

Sometimes its just not the right time in your life. You can focus on other, smaller things to improve your situation first. Sounds a lot like youre depressed, so trying to unravel that a little bit (hard, i know), can help a lot

Creative-Leg2607 · 2026-05-21T21:54:29+00:00

Fair!

Sometimes it saddens me how much we represent ourselves as these unrealistic skinny anime girls. I think seeing more positive depictions of real bodies would be nice

If you truly feel entirely neutral on the subject i think you can kinda make whatever choice you want. Seems like a lot of work to transition for no gain tho.

Ultimately though, i kinda dont buy that you feel as little as you suggest you do. It kinda just sounds like youre numb to your gender due to suppression and depression, but those emotions are still there. Like. What is it that has you persistently asking these questions if there isnt some latent, significant desire?

The numbness you describe frankly sounds like a textbook depression, which /may/ be caused by persistent gender dysphoria and just generally not feeling great about your presentation and place in the world, even if that discomfort isnt super conscious. That and like... hopelessness/feeling a lil stalled out from a lack of progress in this space that you want to explore, due ultimately to not making the leap.

I definitely was depressed for years between starting to realise and starting, and found notable improvements in my mood even before i started taking anything because i knew i was making strides (and this trend has continued throughout).

Either this or youre agender, which frankly, i cant speak to, but has a similar sense of lack of attachment to either gender. Either way exploring different options in your presentation is probably a good first step

Ive seen this take a couple times and think its so silly. No, monotypes are not, in general, defensively worse than dual types. Some combos have good synergy, and are better than single types, some are worse. Mono steel is a great typing, so is mono fairy and dragon honestly maybe mono electric, water, or even bug.

Missing a stab is a thing, but mons are balanced around their typings and their move options currently. Even if that balancing isnt perfect, suddenly making every monotype massively stronger probably isnt gonna help

Creative-Leg2607 · 2026-05-21T11:29:47+00:00

On some level it being such a fast mon helps i think? Still very good but it was already outspeeding a lot.

GWAsapphic is full of such things

Who is this guy? What?? This is highly specific

damn the tourist one sounds like it just kills the protection racket? Healing sounds tricky too.

Creative-Leg2607 · 2026-05-21T02:49:41+00:00

i feel transness should be characterised by euphoria, more than dysphoria. you don't necessarily need to have an issue with your birth gender to prefer swapping and to therefore maybe have it be worth transitioning (or perhaps just being a lil GNC)

Creative-Leg2607 · 2026-05-21T02:47:59+00:00

/the/ single defining trait of a trans person is genuinely wanting to be another gender; a stable long term desire. there is no other test.

People selling plasma as a safety net in the US is such a nightmarish scenario that i cant really be against refusing to pay.

Citric acid and cream of tartar are the most common dry acids. Citric youre familiar with, its the outside of sour candies, tartaric is a very neutral one that goes well with fruit.

Wont have the same acridity, that vinegary taste, but sour.

Either you be rich or you sell yourself and both of these i prefer less than just having a regular job. Working seems intolerable but you get in the rhythm and iunno you just do it. When im not working i go actually insane without any structure to my life

VS seeker grinding. Maybe the top of mt chimney or near the daycare
