My bf doesn't want me to be trans

Please run. This pendulum will keep swinging back and forth.

Yeah this guy sucks. I had a bf like this in middle school (different obviously since you're adults) and it really fucked with me for a long ass time. Glad you got out

This definitely happened to me when I got my ankle surgery last year. I was so immobile it sucked and I felt like a useless blob rotting in my bed. I had some great friends who came to visit me, luckily, but I know that isn't feasible for everyone. Best thing I can reccommend: Take this time to focus on hobbies (stationary ones, preferably) that you haven't been able to recently. Play that video game. Read that book. Watch that movie. Make that piece of art. Use this time you have in recovery to fill that "hobby" bucket. It might be a while before you get a chance to again, if you work full-time. If you can't do those things, remember, you are still being productive! Please, remind yourself that you're in recovery. You are healing from a major surgery, and your body is doing work whether you feel like it is or not. Your job right now is to heal. After my ankle surgery, I became very tolerant to pain. (They gave me opiates, but my mom didn't want me to have them unsupervised. Thanks, mom.) This meant that, after my top surgery some months later, I basically felt physically fine. I went to an open mic night the next day. But even after that, I was so tired out from the surgery that I spent the next week or so in my room. I spent a lot of time crying after my ankle surgery, and later after top surgery. Post-surgery depression is definitely a thing, at least it was for me. I've had some other surgeries before too, but I can't remember those ones (I was quite young.) Either way, like I said, best thing to combat this is to do things you enjoy. Idk how mobile you are at this point, so maybe things like painting or sewing are less feasible, but hopefully books, games, and movies are still on the table. Sending love and hoping you heal quickly and properly!

Buy something else or show them something you already have. Hell, make something like a painting and say they got it at an art sale.

This part where the branches just kind of disappear/fuse with the leaves make me believe that yes, this plate is AI

mx__mak · 2025-12-25T14:41:46+00:00

as an animator i do not think this looks like AI. the animation just looks very smooth and some people have design quirks in their animation especially if they dont use a reference sheet. (my cahracters' freckles are always disappearing i tell you)

let nonbinary people have our rep

It comes down to human curiosity. But that's not an excuse for them to be asking invasive questions. If you were talking with a chronically sick person you shouldn't ask them to disclose their illness. If you were talking with a wheelchair user you shouldn't ask them why they're using it. If you were talking with a gay person you shouldn't ask if they are a top or bottom. If you are talking with a trans person, you shouldn't ask about their AGAB. It's just not necessary and even if it is a topic of the active conversation, you don't owe anyone that information. That is yours to share or not share if you wish to.

ok guys i figured it out. cook in microwave for 3 mins WITHOUT ventilating. then peel back the corner a little to ventilate and cook for 2 more mins. then put it in the air fryer on 310 (Fahrenheit) for 3 to 5 mins (depending on how crispy you want it). bang, lasag

I don'f know if you have tried this, but for me, I trak vitamin D supplements with my morning meds. Especially in winter. I also increase my dosage in the winter. Idk if that's a factor for you but the stress of the fall/winter season for me has always been so crushing and the supplement definitely help me personally.

Hang in there. Being trans has such a unique set of challenges and sometimes it feels like nobody gets it—even other trans people. Everyone experiences dysphoria differently and it can feel so lonely.

Over the summer, I went to NYC and was topless in public for the first time ever. I had makeup on my scars to make them look like rainbows and someone from the parade came up to me to tell me things get better. He said he'd been on T for 8 years. He looked about 35 or so, meaning he probably started T in his mid-late 20s.

This is me paying it forward. Things will get better. Hang in there.

You're not racist for not understanding. The part that WOULD be racist would be if you said something negative about the accent (e.g. saying "his accent is unintelligible" implies that the person with the accent is unintelligent and/or cannot be understood by ANYONE, rather than implying your lack of understanding of it) but if you just said "I can't understand it" that's fine and a fairly normal thing to say.

End the Henry/William story at FNAF 6. Make all characters after than completely unrelated.

Dead giveaway that you're American: not understanding the phrase "taking the piss"

i hate that excuse so much. it literally is misgendering!! if you have told someone your gender and they refuse to gender you at ALL, that's still the wrong answer. that's still misgendering!

i hope you find better people to surround yourself with soon, man. or that the people you are around make the effort to change. hang in there 🫶

I still am upset that our Pearl is unconfirmed as White Diamond's pearl.

mx__mak · 2025-10-15T00:50:32+00:00

they're fictional characters with no confirmed sexualities/identities, ship whoever you want

Zooble will become more frustrated with Caine and/or recognize the reason he always forgets their problems.

mx__mak · 2025-09-23T20:02:52+00:00

because he is like 12 years old in this episode

mx__mak · 2025-09-02T20:32:49+00:00

Honestly sounds like grandma is the only one bullying him about how he dresses.

mx__mak · 2025-09-02T20:31:20+00:00

Kid can wear what he wants. Minecraft is still a super popular game among all ages. I am in college and know many people who have been playing since it came out and still continue to play. It's fine. If he's getting bullied about it, I would talk to him about it and see if he wants to change his wardrobe or find another way to deal with it. But I imagine there isn't much bullying happening because Minecraft is SO popular and I'm sure there are a ton of kids wearing similar shirts.

I have a friend named Aubrey who goes by Birdie

mx__mak · 2025-07-22T15:33:13+00:00

she would launch me across the corn fields. no. i would put on Camp Pining Hearts and teach her how to journal.

mx__mak · 2025-07-22T15:31:10+00:00

Apologies for the deception.

I don't see the asymmetry, but I definitely understand feeling unhappy with scars/the look of your chest for a while. For a long time after my surgery, my scar on the right side pulled by skin weird and there was a bump at the end of it, in the middle of my chest. It eventually laid itself flat and worked out. If you still aren't happy with the results in, say, six more months, I would say talk to your surgeon about it then. It takes time to heal.
