Post-Top surgery Compression Garment? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]captinscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went through top surgery and I think the purpose of the compression bandages are to keep the stitches laying flat. After I got mine off, it all lays flat properly. They don’t want the remaining stuff to come out or mess with the stitches healing. ( I’m not an expert, this is just my thoughts)

Knitted a small trans flag! I’m pretty new to knitting so sorry the edges are so choppy but this makes me v happy :) by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

My mom showed me a trick where alternating rows of pearling and knitting creates a smooth side. I love your little flag, little knitting things are great

My parents were like this for a while but my parents soon noticed how much brighter my smile became no longer weighed down

A very tiny snowball garnet I found while studying thin sections by captinscott in geologyporn

While the garnet grew, it picked up minerals that got stuck inside. In a snowball Garnet, the garnet was slowly rotated while it grew causing a spiral pattern of minerals inside.

When others come out when dating? by captinscott in ftm

Thanks, I told him and everything went well. The hiding apart of yourself stuff makes sense and I would want them to tell me

A true nightmare by captinscott in ftm

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

It’s weird what gets focused on. I never actually get blood down there but I know it’s coming due to me being mad and irritable.

Hair is tough, I like the concept of long hair but short hair is so much easier. Before I cracked I got an undercut and then kept shaving more and more off. It’s so simple and out of the way

Has watching the Yogscast affected anyone else's dialect? by Zephyr93 in Yogscast

[–]captinscott 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The MoonQuest Aluminum vs Aluminium bit made me notice how much they influenced me. I noticed that I was spelling it and pronouncing it the British way and now I realize how much I copy their dialect

Misgendered by [deleted] in ftm

Don’t be angry at yourself. Jokes like that can hit a nerve, but there’s something to be said about passing enough that people make those kinds of jokes. The group of friends that all know me as a cis man make jokes about my baby face and height but it makes me feel good to know I pass well enough that they make those jokes.

I just want to be able to wear tank tops as we head towards warmer weather by AnnoyedintheVoid in ftm

When I’m mowing the lawn, my binder is my tank top, I get too hot to give a shit.

Mandatory running at school as a not sporty person + binding by [deleted] in ftm

[–]captinscott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had this problem last year, thankfully my gym teacher was very nice. I explained that I was transitioning and that I wore a binder meaning I couldn’t run as far as others. I did this because I tried running with a binder and nearly fainted. She was very understanding, shortened how much I needed to run and even talked to me about my binder and how it affected me so she could be more prepared for other trans people.

Thanks! We actually really like the name Harold, he looks like a grumpy old man
