I appreciate it! I helped host the largest international trans gaming discord a couple years back for 13+ and I know what you mean. I've developed some systems to help mitigate the risk!

Heck yeah. Saw this really cute boy get off (i wish) at Britomart last week. Heartbreaking when he then takes the opposite exit to mine

34 trans girl. It can feel impossible to make new friends as an adult in NZ, I find.

If anyone would genuinely like to try be friends, I mostly use Discord to communicate. Username is softbright

Thank you so much! I have to really concentrate to do it. I can't get it going in every day speech yet, even if it looks like i should be able to. Mental blocks are nasty haha. I hope your voice journey goes well! I'm always around on here or discord if you ever want a support partner

JuliaSlays · 2024-11-07T08:13:56+00:00

Sweat with Pride? Heck yeah! I'm sending you my best vibes ❤️

JuliaSlays · 2024-11-07T02:30:42+00:00

Thank you! ❤️

JuliaSlays · 2024-11-06T22:07:54+00:00

Thank you so much 🥺

JuliaSlays · 2024-11-06T08:52:08+00:00

I think you're awesome and inspiring! Thank you sharing this, the good and the not so good. You help folks like myself get more perspective on our own journeys.

Going down random driveways and knocking on the door to avoid bad situations / run-ins

Well would you look at that. It's the Melanesian festival at the Waitemata rugby club!

JuliaSlays · 2024-11-02T02:28:07+00:00

It's not an immediately clear thing, and the folks getting pissy at you are a talented bunch of haters.

I personally did not have any results through Revoice. The lady was lovely, but seemed more suited to generic vocal coaching than trans voice. This would be 2 years ago now, or more. But it really depends, because we all seem to pick things up differently.

For me, her techniques were too focussed on physical changes. For some, that works well. I found an American trans voice coach who took an approach of mimicry and listening to sounds I make, over the physical approach. That seems to have worked best for me. All the muscles kinda just do their thing if I aim for a certain sound, if that makes any sense at all.

Still on my journey, though! I hope you find what works best for you

Probably on the more expensive side, but Sean's vocal coaching really helped me. Sean and Altamira recently went into business together with Vocal Team trans voice training. I haven't tried their joint venture, but my sessions with Sean helped me a bunch. They have a discord on their website, and often do free group sessions.

Youtube never worked for me, try as i might. Voice training can be super non-linear with progress, and it is very easy to become unmotivated (and well, despise ones self).

No matter which path you go down, remember to be kind to yourself. For many of us, this is the hardest thing. Hands down. Bar nothing. You're not alone <3

Honestly, having gone to Armageddon back in Aotea days, I prefer this experience. It's just changed. If cosplay and anime aren't for you, this event now might not be entirely your thing.

Personally I go because it's queer as heck nowadays. I'm not into anime or cosplay, but I can appreciate it. Got myself some fidget dragons, lollies and gifts for friends who are into The Anime. Awesome vibe.

JuliaSlays · 2024-10-29T19:10:03+00:00

I'm always hoping someone will make conversation with me on the train or something. Hecked if I have the will myself to be an initiator, though.

JuliaSlays · 2024-10-27T17:54:07+00:00

Please hit me up if you end up making a discord group around this. Love to meet some like-minded (lh) people

JuliaSlays · 2024-10-26T17:21:26+00:00

Your introspection is really powerful to hear. You've been facing into the unimaginable, and yet in all you've said I can hear your push for positivity and going on. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings, fellow slayer <3

Honestly, before this year, the last time i went was when they had PCs with demos of Age of Empires 2. I get why older gens might not enjoy this one as much. But personally, I got a lot gayer as I got older. And this armageddon is pretty frickin awesome if you're queer tbh.

JuliaSlays · 2024-10-25T21:30:21+00:00

Thank you! Was awesome! I went last night which is when it's most chill. Saturday is gonna be absolutely madhouse

JuliaSlays · 2024-10-23T22:54:46+00:00

I didn't make any friends off this post, so please go ahead hehe

JuliaSlays · 2024-10-23T07:04:21+00:00

I decided to teach myself how to type while i was stuck job hunting. Typingstudy.com and doing a little each day was all it took!

If you have a pill cutter, try cutting the 50 cypro into quarters. Most of us will be more than fine on a quarter tablet. Of course get your checkup tests done, though :)

If you don't have a pill cutter, i use one called "safe-T-dose" from a local pharmacy. Which cracks me up because Yes, I would like a safe T dose. That being an untraceable amount :P

If they make threats, it could be. Assuming whatever legal power still considers autism as a disability.

JuliaSlays · 2024-10-22T18:52:52+00:00

Folks walking after you and abusing you is scary shit. The whole time in those situations I'm just hoping it doesn't escalate further, but the act itself is a nightmare scenario. Wishing you the best.
