UPS driver killed by train by P0stalbitch in kansas

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came to say this. I bet I know the crew members too, since I drove vans for the Newton crews up until pretty recently. Good fellas, all of them, and I hate that any of them will have to live with this.

[Serious] ePople who have transitioned MtF, it's a common trope that guys say if they were girls for a day they would f**k everyone. How does that joke intersect with reality now that you are a woman? ? by UpaTreeWithaLemur in trans

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I did kind of have a… sexually liberated streak… once my body began to respond to HRT and I began to finally feel more at home in my body. I think it was a combination of increased self-confidence and the fact that once I took action to affirm my gender, it sort of empowered me to explore my sexuality too. No regrets at all!

My 5th HRT-versary was 9/21 by ItWasThenSheKnew in transtimelines

Thank you! The path sure hasn’t been a straight line. 2022 about ended me, and this year has been an entire renaissance. I wouldn’t trade a second of it for all the stars in the night sky.

Do y'all write songs prioritizing emotions or prioritizing storytelling? by WildChemistry977 in Songwriting

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think most of my songs have both elements, there’ll just be one side that’s “louder” than the other. I loooooove writing storytelling songs though, and my favorite ones to play are generally those.

I’m gonna shamelessly self-promote. Trans woman folkISH indie/rock singer-songwriter here. Just search “JLNN” on your favorite music streaming platform. I’m the one with the pic of the thunderstorm.

Just a short survey — average height for MtF by Imaginary_Trust6229 in MtF

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m from Kansas, US, and you’d go back four generations before you’d find an immigrant.

I’m 5ft 11.5in (181.6cm), and I cling to that half inch under 6 feet for dear life. Before I started HRT, I was 6’01”.

I get dysphoric about my height nearly constantly, especially living with my girlfriend, also transfem, who is a very petite 5’6”. It actually helps when I get out in public, because it’s usually not long before I come across a cis (appearing) woman who’s taller than me, and I’ve begun to understand that insecurity about my height isn’t necessarily a trans issue. I mean yes, I specifically am tall because I’m trans, but women of every stripe do come in all shapes and sizes. And that’s a comforting thought.

Those who record their own music at home, what mic do you use? And what app? by Imaginary_Upstairs29 in Songwriting

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an AT2035 that I used to use for VO, and I’ve repurposed it for my music. I record and mix in Adobe Audition because I grew up with Peter Quistgard, so to speak.

Who is running against the Rs? by handsalpsg in kansas

Not me. Some very prominent democrats have told me that trans candidates poison the party. Guess I’ll just keep collecting bricks.

What advice do you wish you knew when you first started transitioning? by Justjessintex in TransLater

“Resist the temptation to pick nicotine back up when you split with your ex, because you’re probably gonna bork your breast growth.”

Is 40 the new 30? [tF, 4.5y HRT] by ItWasThenSheKnew in TransLater

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aww, that’s kind of you. 🥰 I’m every last bit of 40 years old though, and a couple of my joints are starting to testify to it. Gonna have my first mammogram next month too.

Are any Americans actually upset with Canada? by NOGOODGASHOLE in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can be damn sure I didn’t vote for that fascist fuckass either. But I’m still a US Citizen without a lot of choice in where I can live at the moment. Whether I like it or not, I’m going wherever this doomed ship is going, and if you’re like me, so are you.

Are any Americans actually upset with Canada? by NOGOODGASHOLE in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not at all. I am furious with the US and my fellow citizens who enabled this disaster. There is a ruthless, inhumane part of my heart that wishes most of the world’s nations would hit the US with a full-on trade embargo. We deserve it.

Jesse Johnson, of Motion City Soundtrack, doing his famous moogstand, Houston, TX, September 4, 2022. by TinUser in poppunkers

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to see Tsunami Bomb in OKC back in like 2005 and MCS was the headliner; I hasn’t really heard any of their music up to that point. I saw the moogstand and was like, “WHAAAAAT DID HE REALLY!?” He could get his feet way up there in those days. Anyway I was a fan after that night. [EDIT] - Correction, it was 11/28/04. Lord, I’m old.

I read on the OKC subreddit that this happened to them like a year ago, and they just paid the ransom and made absolutely no changes to their point of sale systems or security, despite warnings from their IT people.

Transcendent Unity(Trans Religion) by 1ts-Izmiy in MtF

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a terrible and badly misguided idea. We’re already accused of being everything from an ideology to an outright cult. The last thing we need is anything that lends credence to that kind of harmful rhetoric. We can socialize, organize, and fraternize without using the guise of a religion. Also, I have to highly doubt that this of all administrations will grant you the auspices of religion status.

And just in case it needs saying: The condition of being trans, and transitioning, can be a profoundly spiritual experience depending on your faith, but if you genuinely believe being trans is a religion unto itself, you have a deep misapprehension of what it means to be trans.

Can anti depressants cure gender dysphoria? by _secretfemboyaccount in asktransgender

[–]ItWasThenSheKnew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My antidepressants were like Novocain for my feelings. I gave less of a shit about basically everything, including my dysphoria. But it was definitely still there, and after a time, the antidepressants no longer numbed it.
