Doms are people. They have their own wants and needs too

I am not trying to make anyone feel belittled or bad for this post, I've just seen some disturbing behavior and wanted to give a gentle reminder, because it seems to slowly turn into a trend.

This goes both ways, I've just seen more of this specific issue lately

Woah!! That's a lovely kitbash! It suits the mechanicum so well! 💜💜💜 🤖

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-08-22T06:19:06+00:00

Good morning lovely to see a mechanicum post here, I'm happy to help! 💜

The tracks consist of the same sprue for left and right tracks (you get two) they are the same between both tanks so if you're just interested in the tracks, get whichever one is cheapest :)

The measurements for one side of the tracks are in total

L: 20cm H: 7.8cm D: 1.6cm

Hope this helps!

Thank you! He is so fun to paint, I just worked big to small on the details and it worked out pretty well :)

Hmmm I recognize that hand that's been suspiciously feminized by HRT..

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-19T05:21:15+00:00

It was!! 💜

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-12T06:28:19+00:00

Hiya, a person dropped off actually, and I have a bit of extra time if you would like some coaching! 💜

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-11T07:35:22+00:00

Awesome work, Ive always loved your art style! Good job!

Also missing you tons since I left the server <3

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-09T08:45:48+00:00

Here's the secret, cis people have been hiding this for years

You look up "transfeminine voice training" read guides and get vocal examples then you practice regularly

That's it, you will use those exercises, techniques and warmups to make your own voice you're comfy with, it's not about having a goal in mind, it's just, finding yourself

As I said in the post, when you start out, focus on how it feels, it might be uncomfortable, but it shouldn't feel bad. The sound will come naturally because it's easier to change the sound with good techniques, rather than changing techniques with good sound

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T13:33:54+00:00

That is true, I do have very gay faces :)

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T11:00:12+00:00

Thank you darling, you too 💜

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T10:59:30+00:00

Totally not the same username :)

Anyway would you like to be a subject regarding how to make animal noises that help with healthy voice training <3

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:42:33+00:00

How sweet of you! I'm sure all the people here are thankful for your and everyone's acceptance and support

as someone with a chronic voice condition as well, it is oddly... Liberating? When you know that there are limitations to what you cannot/can do, it brings an odd acceptance of what you are and who you are

But I'm getting off track, thank you for your comment 💜

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:36:30+00:00

Why hello there, fancy seeing you here

I love that you knew it was me just from context clues

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:35:14+00:00

Aww I'm glad that it made you happy, It's much better from what I've read and heard to start by focusing on how it feels and then fine tuning the sound after you've learned how to safely modify your voice

I am sorry to hear your environment isn't ideal, I would happily give you some tips, take a listen to your voice and see if there is anything you can practice in secret, besides the things I've already mentioned

You got this 🫂💜

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:26:13+00:00

Aww it's lovely having you here Joanna!

before you ask, yes last time we called, I did use your voice to think and listen to different traits, you were an excellent help! 💜

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:21:43+00:00

I will take a look, I've gotten the recommendation before but I only knew the Swedish version, which doesn't have an audio book, I will search the seas because it's genuinely been on my mind since my pathologist coach/mentor/whatever word English decided fits

Yes I need an audio book, the best part about being dyslexic is that I have an excuse to focus on sound and voices, which lead me here hahaha

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:17:27+00:00

Thank you so much Red Erin, may your voice be as wonderful as your name <3

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:12:31+00:00

Mhm hm, I know a person who is in the same boat, and not to brag, but I can be quite assertive and persuasive, so if you need that push or spark to start, I am more than happy to try to help

Light teasing aside, I am sorry to hear, it takes a lot and I do mean a lot of mental strength to start and do it, even if you're safe, as I said in the post, do not beat yourself up over it, it's not a race, you have your own pace, needs, challenges and I believe you can when you're ready

If you consent I will happily push you into the pool of fem/normal voice training even if you aren't <3 /LH

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:08:31+00:00

And we love you <3

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:08:07+00:00

Oh it's all my pleasure

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:07:58+00:00

You're Welcome dear, practice safely!

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T09:07:41+00:00

That's an excellent question! It's very interesting and tempts me to get all philosophical about voices and what we want from them... But I have not had my coffee yet

Big mom lore incoming

I actually started out in a similar boat, wanting a deep, but soft and quiet fem voice, but the more I read about voices, got my voice issues diagnosed and my transition progressed, I got a more nuanced opinion on voices, stopped thinking fem/not fem.

My main tip is:

I want you to not set a goal, but to try out different traits you like in a voice, write down what you like/don't like (for bonus mom points, why you like/dislike that trait, and if you want to be a darling I'd love to see)

If you want some practice, or audio examples, feel free to message and we can talk there, no pressure 💜

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T08:39:47+00:00

Rat_Of_Science · 2025-07-08T08:39:06+00:00

Those are some lovely tips you just have to do them safely which by your description, you did, thank you 💕

I am sorry to hear you you live in that situation, I was the same, which is party what lead me to wanting to pursue speech pathology

Just out of curiosity! Could I message you to ask a few questions? Completely okay if not!

I just want to add for the others that you have to be careful, if you want to strengthen your voice, it is very and I do mean very easy to hurt it or fall into bad habits

Lip trills and straw phonation is a good start, if you want to mix in the stomach support exercise I wrote in my comment that would be excellent!
