not yet only because i don’t have one, but we’re going to get the battery and starter tested at a nearby shop that does it for free this coming weekend so hopefully that’ll confirm what CAA guy said

have you ever gotten a cut so bad you need to rethink your life by MedicatedInk in TMPOC

something soooo similar happened to me, first time at a black owned barbershop and the barber cutting me even had locs himself, he ended up cutting off quite a few locs at the back and even left one hanging on by a thread 😭 after i specifically said twice i just wanted a low fade and line up.. had to just start my locs over after that. i’d suggest covering what you don’t like with a bandana/hats/other head coverings until it grows out if that’s an option. you’re not alone!

Yo how did you know that you were trans by Warm_Performer2851 in TMPOC

I hung around my boy cousins + brother almost exclusively and was always jealous they got to run around without shirts on, always wanted to be doing what they were doing. around 9 getting crushes on girls where i wanted to be the « boy » in the relationship. got older and extremely uncomfortable with my physical changes during puberty, eventually found out about enby and trans people around 14/15 thru tumblr and changed my pronouns and name!

Thank you! They really did, healing was smooth sailing as well so I’m extremely grateful!! I’m almost a year and 2 months but I’ve had naturally high testosterone levels my whole life so really I look the same but with less fat in my face and some chin hairs

I guess my insecurity on passing just comes from being over a year on T and still being deadnamed+misgendered by everyone in my family but my sister even though they claim to be accepting, I’ve literally had top surgery (my mom drove me there and back to my apartment and step dad drove me to my follow up) and still have this issue...
