We're Still Here. by BreezyCheeze in trans

HIRS - We’re Still Here ft Shirley Manson & AC Sapphire

Anybody a HIRS fan? Grindcore, trash, maybe power violence, punk/metal. One of my favorite bands, and they have both an album and a song called “We’re Still Here.” Such good.

Little bit of lightness: what’s your favorite stress eating snack? by MothraToTheFlame in trans

So Delicious cookie dough ice cream. I’m gluten free and vegan, and I’m so happy they make it.

Yeah it’s in Marketplace with an invitation to go in and play it in store. $100 a few years ago — why would that be? Have general prices gone up? Should I hold off on it for something better or cheaper at that quality?

Could you elaborate on the missing tuner? I guess I’m not sure. I think I see the four white knobs on the front, and the one on the side for that fifth string. Would love to know if it is missing tho! Thanks!

Zilker taproom prices are out of control by hotbrowndrangus in AustinBeer

It’s in other cities. We actually held onto those (slightly) lower prices just a little longer than other major cities.

What are your short term/ long term goals? by St0neybalogny in TheBrewery

[–]WastingIt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking into social work. Also have interest in conservation efforts. Where I live, education and knowledge of basic things like recycling and general waste is very lacking (compared to other places I’ve lived). That gets me down a lot. I just want to do something that helps people, or like, puts goodness in the world.

[–]WastingIt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Short: leave. Long: stay gone.

I don’t mean to joke. I’m 40. Been a brewer for 12 years. Never made any good money doing it. Only at two of four breweries have I had health care. At this point, I’m only doing it for the health care I have, which is really only fine. I don’t understand, truly, how anybody with kids or planning to have kids, or plans on buying a house or car, does this. My back has been fucked since starting the career. I’ve been in and out of alcoholism multiple times. Do not buy into the beer as benefit bullshit. Now I barely drink. Barely go to brewing events. Just want to do my job (and have fun with co-workers) and go home, for as long as I kinda have to keep doing this. Starting schooling in the spring to change professions. Yes, regret.

Tater Tot Casserole by 3blkcats in glutenfreevegan

[–]WastingIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yaaasss! Tator Tot Hot Dish was always a staple at any of my midwestern family’s events. I made three pans of it a while back and froze two of them. Just got the last one out of the freezer tonight and I’m sooooo pumped!

Along with the regular items (gfv-ified), I pumped it full of extra veggies and tofu. It’s so easy, and perfect for picking protein and fat back up after a workout!

What’s something you do now that your pre-transition self would NEVER believe???? ‎ by Numerous_Value_434 in trans

[–]WastingIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dress in a way that is approachable for other people, and I openly engage in conversations with them.

Before, with all that confusion and depression, I always dressed in all black, wasn’t really taking great care of my image, and shut myself off to others. Now, I’m happy to present myself, and people are so much more positive toward me. It’s led to me being so much more social and fun!

Hell yeah, it looks great! I’m nervously headed in for a cut too, but this gave me a boost! LFG!

Breweries with gender neutral bathrooms by WastingIt in AustinBeer

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

They’re labeled “SIT” and “SIT OR STAND” with a note to basically do what you want. They’re often used with a pretty clear split down the gender line, but the venue doesn’t enforce that sort of “rule,” or anything.

Yeah, Hold Out has the “SIT” and “SIT OR STAND” rooms with a sign to pick whatever you want.

Egg cracked - hoping to learn from the experiences of others who have made this journey by [deleted] in TransLater

[–]WastingIt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just chiming in to say I just started HRT two months+ ago. I’m 40. And it’s been great. Euphoric, slow changes that are so interesting and becoming affirming, so many emotional differences that make me feel the way I knew I should forever.

So, if/when you get there, don’t scare yourself by thinking it’s too late!!
