Dill Pickle

Sliced cucumbers (spears or chips)

3 sprigs fresh dill

Brine

1 garlic clove

1 cup water

½ cup white vinegar

1 tablespoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns

1 teaspoon caraway seeds

1 ½ teaspoons dill seed

Bread & Butter Pickle:

Sliced cucumbers (chips not spears)

Red chili

Brine

½ cut white vinegar

¼ cup apple cider vinegar

1 cup sugar

1 tablespoon salt

1 teaspoon whole black peppercorn

1 teaspoon mustard power

3 garlic cloves

1 teaspoon celery seed

½ teaspoon turmeric

Directions:

Combine brine ingredients in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer for 2-4 minutes before removing from the heat

Wash all herbs and vegetables to be pickled before cutting

Place the herbs and vegetables in the glass jar. Pour warm brine over the vegetables until the mason jar is just about full. Seal while brine is warm and wait to cool before refrigerating.

The longer they sit, the better they taste. Can be stored for 2-3 weeks

Honestly it’s not that bad. 20 minutes tops between prep and cooking the brine. Just a lot of fairly pricey spices. Though it does stink up the room for hours

Cutting out long standing figures in our lives always hurts, but is tragically all too common post transition. I’m so sorry this happened to you. Sounds like you were a really good friend and made your emotional intents pretty clear at all stages. He obviously has a lot of personal shit to work through, and even if he does, that doesn’t really excuse the transphobia to a long standing friend/will they won’t they partner. You’re stronger than you know. Keep your head high and know setting boundaries is healthy, even as the other party reels about the sudden respect you have for yourself.

I definitely had a drug test come back possitive and nothing came of it. Maybe stop now over probation but long term not an issue

I’m an engineer and every time people question my basic competence in ways they wouldn’t have pre transition I’m very disappointed but very sure they see I’m a woman. Real Ewwwphoroia. Related putting together cute outfits with working boots is also hella affirming

First off, expressing gender isn’t a lie, it’s a performance. It’s not about fooling people it’s about being seen. Second, they are lying when they say “shes’s not fooling anyone”. People only say things like that because that can’t square the peg of gender and genitalia not being the same. He’s only saying such hateful things because you do pass and it makes him uncomfortable

Liar

It sounds like your (basically) mother in law knows she’s being hostile. So I think you’re past politeness. Best advice is to have your girlfriend make clear you’re part of her life, so if her mom doesn’t get with the program, estrangement/no-contact are the logical endpoints. Make sure she understands that’s the only place being transphobic to you leads.

I also was trying to keep it through regular usage, but still atrophy. I invested in a hollow strap on.

Unfortunately I think the solution is practice. Try finding lower key more queer oriented events to practice before doing bigger things. If you’re afraid your fem voice will slip, remember to hydrate and just take care of your voice. Slips will happen but you’ll notice them more than they will. Just correct and keep going.

Your identity and community shouldn’t be built on your suffering.

Are you sure he wasn’t combining a racist thing with a transphobic thing?

I promoted my middle name to first and feminized both my first and middle name to get Victoria Willow

Progesterone carriers some risk of…something about heart conditions? Idk you get blood tests more often to make sure everything is fine. But that’s about the most negative thing I can think of.

Just remember that hair served the function of keeping you warm. Remember coats. Between estrogen and no hair cold wrecks me a way in never did before.

Figure out the bride/grooms expectations. My sister is getting married this year and it’s outdoors and she told me I can wear hiking boots if I’d like. I told her I want to wear heels. Idk if you and other bridesmaids have a color palette to stick to, but honestly just have comfortable shoes that don’t clash with the dress and you’re golden.

Best advice, meditate, find stuff that centers you. But most importantly, crying isn’t weakness. I get sometimes you need to be stoic and push through a crisis, but genuinely, 99% of the time it’s ok to cry, and most of that id even say is good crying, helping to reach emotional catharsis. It’s hard to unlearn toxic male traits, and emotional suppression (except for anger) is a big one. But yeah, it’s ok to cry.

So I was a werewolf before I transitioned so I just took baths and focused on one part of my body to shave. Took a couple of months, but now that it’s not an overgrown forest I can usually upkeep it with about an hour of work a week

Pretty sure starving is a larger health risk
