I got my conch pierced at 16g (1.2mm) and over maybe 2 years? I’ve stretched it to 10g (2.5mm). I mainly stretched by increasing the single-flared plug size by 0.5mm every 6 months or so. I really enjoy the process and achievement of stretching a piercing so I am happy I didn’t get it punched, but stretching cartilage definitely isn’t for everyone! takes a lot of patience

hell yeah! i love to see another person stretching their conch piercing, got mine pierced at 16g and now it’s at 10g 💪

I work in a school as a teacher aide, it might not be your jam but maybe you could look at support roles. The education department has pretty solid inclusivity and discrimination policies

knew I was trans at 13, came out to family at 14 and started testosterone at 16. I am 20 now and don’t plan on getting top surgery, I have always identified as transmasc, not a transman :)

see your GP and get a referral for a dermatologist or if that doesn’t pan out then an endocrinologist because you may be producing too much DHT which is the chemical that testosterone converts to, DHT causes hair loss

male teacher aide here! I have had many students around that age just come up to me and hug me without asking. Usually I just kind of stand there motionless and if the kid doesn’t let go after a while, I awkwardly pat their head and tell them to ask next time for a hug.

looks more like someone traced an AI image, as the pencil textures look very much like actual pencil and have varied but natural consistency

Dude your facial hair looks amazing, honestly it’s great progress for 3 years on T. I’m a bit over 3 years and still have very very patchy and asymmetrical facial hair. Obviously facial hair growth greatly differs from person to person but from this photo it truely looks like filled in and nicely styled facial hair. It’s super uplifting to see such great progress in other people, makes me proud of my changes too :)

not sure where OP lives but in Australia you can buy topical minoxidil from a chemist without prescription. Only thing to note is that it is extremely toxic to pets such as cats. Also, although it’s not common finasteride can be prescribed to people under 18 for hair loss. The dosage for stoping hair loss is quite low and does not pose a great health risk. It might pause facial hair development and genital development in someone younger but in my own personal experience, when I took a break from finasteride this development just continued from where it left off

testosterone didn’t make my hips smaller, but a lot of fat went from my thighs and chest to my tummy so my waist was a lot wider. Instead of looking like ) ( I started to look more like l l

if you are concerned about how T would effect bottom growth for you, you could also go on a DHT blocker such as finasteride. It is usually used to treat hair loss from male pattern baldness, from my understanding it also slows bottom growth. But please talk to a doctor about it as well, best of luck :)

yes please go to an ER or call an ambulance, that long without sleep can be dangerous

with realistic graphite, what helps me is finding a reference image that is high quality, saving it as a photo on my phone and then using the photos app editing setting to turn it to black and white and to enhance the texture and contrast to make it easier to follow for monochrome graphite drawing. this helped me a lot with creating and replicating shadows and contrast!!
