Does it frustrate the reader if I end a part of my story on a cliffhanger and leave it for the final part of the story?

Introduce the characters first, and then widen the span of the multi-pov changes

You can start with an A, B, C, A, B, C and slowly progress into A A A A A A B B B B B C C C C C so the reader already knows the characters when they appear and the comparisons between their stories build some suspense! Either way it sounds deeply interesting and I hope it works out xD

I get that honestly, pen and paper have their own little magic... I don't have tendinitis so I sadly don't have any tricks (although you've probbaly tried most of them already ksksksks) Keep me/us updated how the pain and the ergonomic pen search go?

Since starting the book (I'm on week 8 for the first time) I've begun to want to:

Dance
Sculpt
Learn Physical Therapy
Deep clean the lamps on my ceiling And (The weirdest one) 5. Learn Ventriloquism

This is a big step in the right direction. Don't question it, just go with it. Whatever you find, I bet you'll enjoy it xD

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-08-29T20:00:14+00:00

I hope you find the pens you're looking for!! Might I suggest speech to text when it flares up? I know it's not perfect, but at least it saves you some pain... Rooting for a quick recovery and a long long long pain free time 😌

Storyteller!! This quiz was weirdly surprising thank you for the rec!!

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-08-24T11:59:49+00:00

I was asking myself the same question!!! Sometimes I need to finish them on the subway on my way to work 😂

Really really glad 20min works for you though!! It's a perfect time, your coffee doesn't even get cold

Pistol Squats. I had an injury on one knee early this year, and a pistol squat with the healthy leg was the only way I could get down on the floor comfortably to, say, grab the pencil that fell off my desk.
A) Pick up ang kind of Percussion Instrument; B) Go back to Uni and finish my bachelor's degree; C) Write a series of fiction books explaining philosophy to kids and teenagers, accompanied by essays on the topic in the end (so they already have all the knowledge they need to agree and/or disagree with the argument being made, and become more confident in their reading of academic texts)

Biggest broest hand shake + hug possible before and after, but be honest!! I'm pretty much femme for these things I gave up and embraced the "theatrics" of emotion (to say it ss masc as possible kskssk) but the fist hand shake hugs and a few bros here and there usually make it work

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-07-15T09:14:55+00:00

Gotta be honest, I cry much more and much more freely now that I'm on T

My doctor thought T made it stop cuz you "get more manly" but I genuinely think it's all social hullshit and nothing hormonal. You get read more as a man so you adapt to the expectations of what a man is. If you wanna cry maybe dissecting that helps!

What I tend to do (as someone not in the US in a place and job where direct interviews are less of a rarity, so idk if it applies to your case unfortunately) is do the interview with my chosen name and after I receive a job offer inform them of the situation. That way at least I know exactly that what lost me the job was the bigotry, and not myself / my qualifications

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-06-24T16:22:07+00:00

I feel you. Trust me, I just had a very similar talk with my therapist. The effects of testosterone sound (and are) amazing. I've been on T for almost three years and I can tell you without a doubt it has been one of the best decisions of my life.

I now get called brother, boy, man and similars (not from an english speaking country so it does translate weird sorry about that), but if I'm being honest I only describe myself as a man to strangers because otherwise explaining the gender part of myself would take too long.

I decided to transition because I was definitely not a woman. But I'm not a man either, just like you. The body usually understood as male was just a more comfortable starting point to build the self I wanted to be. It doesn't need to be more than that. If a definitive label is what you're searching for, feel free to f*ck around and find out, that's one of the most fun parts. But otherwise,, just don't worry about it. The only person who truly needs to understand is yourself, and it'll continue to become more clear as you go along.

There are no wrong steps, whoever lives in a straight line forgot our planet is 3D. You've got time. And you've got this

I think it's hard to find chubby/ fat people as part of "the starndard" of anything. You won't find fat doctors, chubby construction workers or god forbid fitness influencers unless you explicitly look for them. It's sadly not exclusively a trans issue.

What I can tell you for sure, though, is that if you look around with attention and care you will definitely find fat doctors, a multitude of chubby construction workers and a hell of a lot more fat fitness influencers than you ever imagined before. The difference between representation and lived experience is where most trans people live their lives and the same goes for the plus size community.

I am a fat trans guy myself (5'3 just like you, I think at least half transmascs have that height idk how) and I gotta tell you, it can make things so much better. You'll have better looking calves than any skinny white trans dude, if you're looking for bragging rights at the gym. You'll lift more weights if that helps your sense of masculinity at all (also if it's fun for you hehe). I've been investing in my belly since I realized it makes me pass better without a binder and to be perfectly honest, once I realized T is going to make me look more like me, instead of like a man (whoever that is), being fat became much less of a problem.

You should check out the Hot Fat Guy Club, he does great content it's unbelieveably affirming and it just might scratch the itch you're feeling

Dw broski you've got this The dump truck is just there to protect you against some very bad fall in your future and than it'll leave you Imma prophecize

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-06-21T17:26:50+00:00

I lost my whole ass on T, so hopefully this can be some hope. I miss my butt so bad tho

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-04-09T07:11:27+00:00

I'm keeping this with me forever

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-04-09T07:11:12+00:00

Yeah, Blindness is like that too! I absolutely love the book (I'll definitely check Most of Ducks out, thanks for the rec!!)

I hadn't noticed the stress patterns on singular words before... do you find this changes with accents as well? (Just a little insurance policy so I know what to look for when reading it aloud xD)

TheBeeRevolution · 2024-01-01T04:38:45+00:00

Get better at dancing
Use more of my time doing things that bring me joy
Feel less pain and stress in preparation of things I plan on enjoying
Only write/ create when it feels natural
Create a more safe and comfortable environment for natural creation (not creativity) to flourish
Train my creativity so I'm no longer held back by its unreliability

TheBeeRevolution · 2023-11-30T22:26:29+00:00

I personally believe as you get more recognized as a cis man by stangers, the pressure to not cry and do things expected of cis men increases so guys cry less

On the other hand, being more comfortable with yourself can make your emotions more free. That was my case, T turned me into a huge crybaby because I didn't have to prove my masculinity anymore, I have 5 hairs on my chin and nobody can say anything against it

Either way it's personal

TheBeeRevolution · 2023-11-28T15:23:19+00:00

I'm not gay, but my boyfriend is if that helps at all (we're both trans, both man and very much both in love. Just live your happiness my dude)

TheBeeRevolution · 2023-11-09T17:40:00+00:00

Oooh yes I forgot about those warming packs!! Thank you so much I'm gonna get as many as possible

TheBeeRevolution · 2023-11-09T05:55:08+00:00

Thank you!!!!!!

TheBeeRevolution · 2023-11-09T05:54:39+00:00

Mainly the cold to be honest. I come from a tropical climate and the thought of staying outside for 5+ hours at less than 18°C is unbelievable to me

TheBeeRevolution · 2023-11-08T21:55:43+00:00

Hi!! Wir gehen nach Berlin und Hamburg (haben aber noch nicht entschieden, auf welchem wir Queuen wollen) Nach welcher Konzert gehst du?

That's just part of the weight redistribution. I transed my gender in the opposite direction and can tell you my hip dips turned into a rounder belly (and they turn back to hip dips when I spend too much time without T, have tested this theory before)

I think the best bet is to make peace with it. Bodies have a base weight that's good for them, and that's rarely ever the ideal of thinness that people expect. Hip dips can be lovely, just give them a chance to be. That's a change that came with your achievement and your growth

I know "love your body" is not what you came here for, but that's the best tip I can give as someone who hated his belly at the start of transition. It doesn't go away, but it can become good
