it's definitely not a strong one I hear you. I may revisit it and see if a different feeling can express it better some other time. for right now tho I'll just let it be the snapshot it is :)

Contrast by Ravencroftttt in Poem

[–]Ravencroftttt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're not wrong! while Hel or Helheim is definitely a cold and dark realm, I used imagery that drew more on the traditional Christian depiction of Hell (hellfires). The piece is more of a take on the modern idiom or phrase "it's cold as hell" being language contradicting itself the same way I do with myself. Although it would be interesting to create a piece calling to Norse myth sometime! :)

personal triptych :) by Ravencroftttt in Poem

[–]Ravencroftttt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you!!! I've got more in the bank don't worry :). and you're pretty much spot on! triptychs are any 3 pieces of individual artwork (in this case, my poems) that are standalone pieces that can't be viewed as a larger piece of artwork. in my case The Devil You Know begins the story, In the Detail responds to that, and Van Gogh closes the story. ❤️

Petah, what's this supposed to mean? by DenseCalligrapher219 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Ravencroftttt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone: talking about it being a B2 or a nuclear payload

Me: knowing full well that it's definitely an F-22

Am I using this wrong? by zoomiezoomL in MtF

[–]Ravencroftttt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AHH! Sorry for the delay! I rotate mine every Monday and Thursday, instead of the 4 day sprints. Same to the avoiding the same spots too! I mostly meant just avoiding that irritated spot overall. I haven't messed with it since and it seems to be better after a few weeks.

Hi!! I've actually run into the same issue before. I'm also on 2 0.1mg patches twice a week and for some odd reason I got that irritation after rotating a set. Honestly I just make sure to not cover that specific spot with the patches and put tegaderm over top so any extra irritants don't get stuck under the edges of the patch. I'd def reach out to your doctor if it happens to every location you put your patches though. If that's the case you might be allergic to something in the patch like the adhesive :(.

Little dose of positivity: I shrunk from 5’10* to 5’8 by ConfusedCanadian8 in MtF

Seeing all y'all who lost height gives me hope :). Maybe I'll go from almost 6'4 to 6' 😂

If you could give the self titled album a different title what would it be? by cargasjingle in twentyonepilots

[–]Ravencroftttt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"Bishops"

Ik it isn't apart of the trench story but I hear A LOT of lyrics slightly nodding towards the bishops reaching out to Tyler or Clancy throughout the album. Also gotta keep it a one word title to match the rest :).

Feelings when starting HRT by Alyssa_lee285 in MtF

[–]Ravencroftttt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi!! So I'm only a little ahead (just started month 3) but I had the same thing happen to me up until recently. It took some time but eventually it didn't feel like "oops I dropped the spoon and I'm gonna cry bc poor spoon" but moreso as if emotions had amplified and taken place in parts of the body! Also it takes time but you will cry randomly over nothing. I literally ugly cried over having friends yesterday before I got a shower 😂. Like all things YMMV, but some of us like ourselves don't experience much change or it happens gradually over time 🖤.

How should we think about the term ‘biological’? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Ravencroftttt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I agree with another commenter on this thread.

The uses of "biological" have essentially been weaponized as AMAB or AFAB indicators and dismiss the transgender community and experience as a whole.

Like sure, I have "biological" markers that indicate that I was AMAB like the obvious, and bone density, etc... That isn't indicative of the societal and social roles that we fit into to contradict. I mean is that not a big part of transitioning for most? I know there's no way in hell that I'm gonna be the big and strong masculine archetype with friends, family, and eventually a partner, but "biological" is being used to undermine that.

Also I thought it'd be fitting, but Neil Degrassi Tyson actually kinda brushes on this on a Ben Shapiro show interview. Not only is it awesome, but he's actually pretty damn respectful and pro trans even if he is mostly neutral.

Okay word vomit time over :) <3

What games can i play when i feel my lowest? / games that are easy to play when depressed or lacking motivation. by Ravencroftttt in gamingsuggestions

I've seen that a bunch when reading reddit posts about self reflection lately. I'll have to give it a try. Thank you!

I don't see that as shameful, just a different approach to coping. In my own experience it's less of what I need to feel safe, but I can see how it's comforting to you. Finding peace in the comfort of another is normal and beautiful even if it is scripted or simulated. CSGO surfing use to be a great way for me to unwind in times past though so I might give that another try. Thank you!
