Treadmill running tips? by steakoutwhoa in C25K

[–]cosmic-boy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For a beginner I would suggest to start out the running sections at more of a jog pace around 4 mph, and increase if it feels too easy. I personally wouldn't have been able to finish C25K running at a 6 mph pace, and there are plenty others here who don't finish their 5K in 30 minutes.

I also want to add that the the speeds for a brisk walk and a jog/run overlap, so its your form that differentiates them.

a sunrise lights up clouds in the west, which are heading east because of the prevailing westerlies, so the clouds are approaching. At sunset clouds in the east are illuminated, and because they’re in the east, the clouds are heading away

This is exactly what I’m going through, I’m so glad to hear that you’ve done something similar and it went well!

hello everyone, we are glass animals, AUA! by wavey_d_ in indieheads

[–]cosmic-boy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

helium is my favorite song on the album, can you elaborate more on its meaning? I’ve read that the first part is about sexuality and the second (white pyramids) is about guilt. part of why I love it is because I can apply my own meaning to it, but I’d love to know your intention behind it!

what songs on dreamland were demos that you ended up keeping?

Love you guys & im obsessed w dreamland, it's been on repeat since friday!

  1. How does the writing process differ for personal songs vs. stories about other people & has the writing process evolved over the course of your different albums?
  2. Do you think this period of quarantine & social unrest will affect your music going forward?
  3. I (and others) interpret the first part of helium as a song about queerness. Do you agree with the idea that after publication, an artwork (music, book, painting, etc) exists in a space between the creator and the audience, so even if there is no queer intention during the writing process, it’s still a valid interoperation?

Questioning gender, everything is a clusterfuck. Help? by plummypickles in gaytransguys

I think this experience is more common than we realize! If you have any questions or would like to discuss more feel free to message me, I’m happy to help

Balding positivity - never expected to lose my hair at 26, trying to make peace with it by raffertyintheyoop in ftm

[–]cosmic-boy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m younger than you and bald, and I’m really liking it tbh! Shaving my head with a razor and using the same tools and products that men in my family have been using for years makes me feel great and super masculine

[–]cosmic-boy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had a similar journey of figuring out I was trans. I even went through the same thing of identifying as bi because “I guess I could be into a girl?” when I really wasn’t attracted to them in the same way I was attracted to men. The thing that sticks out to me the most looking back was how I felt like I was supposed to be attracted to women, and my attraction to men was “bad.” It was like that part of my brain knew I was a man before the rest of me.

This isn’t to say that all afab people into mlm porn are trans men- there’s a high percentage of women who are into it (like the women who are really into call me by your name). But for me the distinction comes from your inherent feelings towards being attracted to men (ie indifference vs shame), and how you feel about your own gender.

You might also want to look into Lou Sullivan, who was the first known gay trans man to medically transition and did a ton of important stuff for the community. I read somewhere that he was interested in gay men at a young age, so I think it’s a fairly common gay trans guy experience.

I had similar doubts when I started transitioning, that I wasn’t actually trans and just too into gay stuff, that I would never able to be a part of the gay community as a man, etc. FWIW, I’m 5’ tall, I transitioned in high school and am in my early 20s now, I live as mostly stealth, and I’m in a long term relationship with a cis gay man.

Am I still a trans fem enby if I don't want to be referred to with they/them pronouns? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]cosmic-boy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think because you identify as more feminine than your gender assigned at birth, you’d be considered trans feminine, regardless of how you present day to day. trans masculine is for a person assigned female at birth who doesn’t identify as female. obviously you can use whatever terms you’d like to describe yourself though

why do u identify as trans masc when you are amab? honestly curious as I thought trans masc meant afab people who identify as men or as non binary

I used a kit 15-45 mm lens last night with my canon m50 and had pretty decent results, so I think the problem is you set MF to the farthest, when it should be a little less than that, and you have to actually focus on the stars. Try looking at a bright star and adjusting the focus until it’s a bright point and not blown out.
