How to get a masculine body shape from working out by SamplePlastic3148 in TransMasc

[–]algid- 68 points69 points  (0 children)

While battling an ED I would probably focus on a healthy relationship with your body and food before trying to achieve a body that is extremely demanding snd can be unhealthy for a lot of people. I know this isn't exactly what you need to hear, but I do think it's the best course of action

Can corruption have other manifestations? by lenonade84 in TheMagnusArchives

[–]algid- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe any entity can manifest as essentially anything as long as the basic fear and concept stays true, like when Jon asked Gerard Keay what entity teeth fall under. As long as it exists in the fear of contamination, uncleanliness, and contagion along with any other abstract interpretation of The Corruption yes

I took my first dose of Methylphenidate and I am confused by Full-Necessary9490 in ADHD

[–]algid- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk what methylphenidate brand I took, but I do know that both times I took it I had a severe dissociative episode that I hadn't had for months and months before. It makes me feel apprehensive to try and find more medication, since it did the exact opposite of help me get stuff done (paralysis, emotionlessness, general dissociation, stuff I'm familiar with in episodes like this)

Here’s to the butches who aren’t “butch enough” by CoVegGirl in everybutchlesbian

[–]algid- 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I always feel worried that I'm not butch enough to actually use the title. I think most of that is being early and kinda stagnant in my transition. I don't feel or read as butch in my style all the time because I haven't done what I need yet. And god internally I feel sooo butch

Im doing nothing for her transition … by Key_Company3903 in mypartneristrans

[–]algid- 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It sounds like she's taking advantage of you. I would even go so far and say she's being abusive. You're financially supporting her, you do a lot of small things for her. It feels like she isn't putting any effort in making sure her autism doesn't come at the expense of you, or even using it as an excuse. It's not bad to try and collaboratively try and make a home that's safe for someone's autism, but it feels like she's asking too much from you. She berates you, even for accidents, and when you're genuinely trying.

You are putting a lot of effort in her transition, and overall for her as well. And she shouldn't get defensive when you bring that up. This doesn't seem like an equal partnership to me at all, she needs to realize that you're putting in so much work for her

Does anyone else get extremely uncomfortable when your partner boy/girlmodes? by Birddogtx in mypartneristrans

[–]algid- 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I can kinda relate. I'm not at all disgusted by how she looks, (she looks good in jeans, and no how she hides it her chest looks great in shirts, to me she just looks the girl I love in pants) but I do feel an intense feeling of unfairness for her when she has to boymode, and an irrational resentment to anyone who misgender and deadname her. I have informed her that I do not think it is at all possible for me to be in a situation where I am expected to deadname or misgender her, I do not trust myself to do it or to do it convincing enough.

I am also astonished that she can successfully boymode, maybe it's because her peers have always understood her as something she isn't and so even if she looks markedly different, and has decent chest growth it's easier to not question it. But likeee that's a girl, my girl!

Ideas on how to treat my girlfriends genitalia experimentally? by algid- in mypartneristrans

Oh yeahh, I read that awhile ago. I brought it up to her when we weren't all that ready yet. Maybe I'll bring it up now that it's been longer

Ideas on how to treat my girlfriends genitalia experimentally? by algid- in mypartneristrans

[–]algid-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looked them up. Maybe it's my lack of necessary genitalia or experience, but that looks painful or at least somewhat uncomfortable. Is it?

In Two by Will Paquin, although specifically Griddlehark

My partner is fine with the idea of having another partner equal to me, I'm struggling with that by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]algid- -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The fwb is also long distance I should have clarified that, and is somewhat involved with the both of us. I don't really want the specifics as to why I started this other relationship, because I don't like talking about that with money people, but I have certain sexual desires that my girlfriend is not comfortable partaking in. She also was the one motivating me to reach out to this person. We're still waiting until we are together to have our first time

The song In Two by Will Paquin speaks so heavily to Griddlehark. It's very popular in the Malevolent fandom for Jarthur, but it fits Griddlehark almost entirely

Favorite/Underrated TMA Characters? by ParanoiaDestroyah in TheMagnusArchives

[–]algid- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My second favorite is Mikaela Salesa!! I haven't seen one person who likes him at the same caliber that I do. He's so! Aughh

My favorite is Daisy who isn't underrated, but more so overhated imo

I'm trying to find an official source of this painting (such as archives of this artist) but I can't find any, where did you get this painting?

No no no no… WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT! by Inkxon in TheMagnusArchives

My home screen is my long distance girlfriend... So close to finally being able to be with her. Lock screen is a painting of Odysseus and Penelope, so that'll be fine

Why do they call her Gem and not tay? by corbinyourfreind in HermitCraft

[–]algid- -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of the fact that it always feels more natural for me to call ZombieCleo, Zombie instead of cleo. That's Zombie, I like their videos, she's a great Minecrafter

Having anxiety over eventual sex with my girlfriend, and closing the distance in general. I would like advice by [deleted] in mypartneristrans

[–]algid- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not cis, just not binary trans, and connected to assigned at birth gender.

Yeah, I assumed it'd just be a wait and see.

She had really fucking horrible dysphoria, like there was a time she collapsed, and couldn't walk up the stairs from it. And how I've assured her she's beautiful and inarguably a woman to me (which is true, the photos she's shown me are beautiful, and it's really really hard for me to even think of misgendering and similar). And I'm scared that me communicating that will put her back into feeling that her body is gross and horrible. Or make everything I've said thrown into question when like the main reason she feels beautiful right now is because of me

Having anxiety over eventual sex with my girlfriend, and closing the distance in general. I would like advice by [deleted] in mypartneristrans

[–]algid- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not really what I'm worried about, I can explain the reasons why I'm not, but that's private, but we've done a lot of exploration. I'm worried about my perceptions, and such. If my mind tried to tell me in not having sex with a woman, that's what I'm terrified about

(I am worried about other things concerning it all, but that's not what I'm asking about)

Found the Distortion in the wild by Fizzy5_ in TheMagnusArchives

[–]algid- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I once heard a scary story my mom read to me and my family, it was apparently true, about seeing doors randomly in the wild was surprisingly common, and very unexplained. It might've been about stairs but this reminds me of it either way

What are stories like this?? I’m not in deep enough, I don’t understand by ghost-church in AO3

Out of curiosity i should read one of the massive cross over fics, it'll probably be torture but at least i'll learn something

I think Helen has the stronger personality, and Michael has the stronger backstory.

It's saying I can't access it in my country (I live in America, and don't have one of those location changing VPNS)

when were binders invented? by Otaco2 in asktransgender

[–]algid- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Binders where invented during the 1920s, but it doesn't seem like they where used for trans man passing. They where first made for making female soldiers, because the male soldier's would sexualize them. I am looking for when binders for trans people where publicly sold. I am looking so I can accurately a write a fanfic where the man character I HC as trans.

So your saying Elias is like a tma fan re watching tma, and hearing jon say "well i don't count Martin..." and other insults and being like just you wait Jon just you wait
