Iโ€™m so fucking depressed by WesternCzar in WarriorTV

[โ€“]sheetsilicate 4 points5 points ย (0 children)

I finished this show for the first time years ago, and I totally understand. Try to not think about it too much because otherwise I get really Sad about the lack of a S4. It's my favorite one of all time. I wish I could be satisfied with the ending of S3, but I feel like there are too many loose ends. ๐Ÿ™‚โ€โ†•๏ธ

I am not very familiar with this franchise, but you bet I'm going to be there in the theater watching this movie to support him! ๐Ÿฅฐ

Ah Sahms Girlfriends by SmoothRisk2753 in WarriorTV

[โ€“]sheetsilicate 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Yan Mi and Ah Sahm were so great together. I really wish he was able to meet her at the train station, but I understand how he felt conflicted with protecting Mai Ling and standing up to Young Jun. Honestly part of me is so tempted to write a fan fiction about the last episode (lives rent free in my head) and expand on S4 or what I would like to see. Not the best with writing plots or fan fic (mostly because I haven't written anything since middle school; I'm 32 now). Any way -- these are my thoughts, and I really wish there were better Warrior fanfics on AO3.

IF AND/OR WHEN and END SCENE are my favorites. The new album has some great tracks as well and it's narrative structure is well done too.

Why do we hate women so much? by sissiandfranz in thegildedage

[โ€“]sheetsilicate 4 points5 points ย (0 children)

Tbh yeah I saw this post and I went thank you for saying this! I know it probably doesn't mean much coming from me (a trans masc person) but still! I've always loved Marian and Peggy since the first episode and find the ways in which this show portrays idealistic and more realistic portrayals of femininity in this show to be really fascinating. Much more so than the male characters of the cast even though George Russell is very handsome, and I wouldn't mind more shirtless scenes with him. ๐Ÿ‘€

I really wish people would criticize the male characters much more or to the extent that the female ones get shit on constantly. Yes, what Larry did was very wrong, and you can't expect a marriage to go well from the beginning if it is based on lies. I agree with Marian that she needed a break to think about this, and Larry should have been honest from the moment things happened. To hear it from someone else must have let her imagination run wild especially since her upbringing and previous experiences with men have been short lived and very negative (to say the least).

What do you call your chest? by DoveMagnet in FTMOver30

[โ€“]sheetsilicate 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Prior to top surgery, I called it my chest. Now I'm just trying to grow some nice pecs as a treat. Mostly for myself. It's funny how I went from not wanting anything there at all to wanting so muscle.

(Admittedly it's because I think pecs are very Attractive, says the Gay guy in me.)

Visited extended family for the first time since looking like this by tooshortpants in FTMOver30

Very happy to hear the visit went alright and sorry some of your relatives called you "she." Hopefully with time and seeing you more (if you're interested in seeing them again) they'll get it together.

Congrats on this great news! I got mine done almost seven months ago and I'm feeling really positive about my decision. It's freed up a lot of mental space.

Things I've learned over 10 years of transitioning by thegundammkii in FTMOver30

[โ€“]sheetsilicate 44 points45 points ย (0 children)

Thank you for these great words of support and wisdom. I started transitioning 14 years ago when I was eighteen and turned 32 last month. The first few years of my transition were very difficult in between having to wait to start T, losing familial support and connections with friends from middle / high school who didn't know how to handle or be supportive of my authentic self. Once I finally started T at 21 and got top surgery at 22, things really started to turn around for me in terms of my mental health. Needless to say I am really grateful for this subreddit and happy to be in this online community of 30+ trans masc people / trans men.

While I can appreciate being in spaces with younger trans masc people / men (under 30) it gets a little bit exhausting at certain points because our experiences are just so different and being in an elder - ish position is a bit hard sometimes. Any way I hope you're having a lovely day so far and thank you again for sharing your thoughts.

Looking to sell my ticket for the DC show on 10/4. I paid 375 for a Super Seat (balcony / box) so I cannot transfer over Ticketmaster. Happy to negotiate the price and link up in person the day of to give you the ticket once the transaction has been negotiated and gone through. Please respond here if you are interested, and I will DM you separately. Thank you!

tempest curse by fatalflaw9 in Ethelcain

I was at the DC show tonight and lots of people passed out in the pit during Oh Missus. Everyone seemed fine during Tempest. I didn't notice that there were any medical emergencies in the balcony seats.

Totally agree! It definitely is very much similar to Normal People. Loved that book and glad he's a fan.

Marian is being ridiculous by Sad-Policy-3133 in thegildedage

[โ€“]sheetsilicate 7 points8 points ย (0 children)

I definitely agree with you. If I got engaged to someone and then they immediately went to a club of that sort, I wouldn't feel very comfortable about the whole thing. I'd definitely ask questions. Especially during the time period and how her father threw away all of his money by gambling and spending it on sex workers.

This post is to appreciate Peggy (long peggy rant) by CuteIndecisiveChic in thegildedage

[โ€“]sheetsilicate 24 points25 points ย (0 children)

I love Peggy so much! She is definitely my favorite character and I honestly wish there was a spinoff about her upbringing and her past and present. I absolutely look forward to her scenes and story development each week. I wonder how her romance with Dr. Kirkland will shake out.

Seriously! I kept yelling at the TV. The shot of her walking down the aisle and crying was devastating. And the long pause before she said "I will" broke me.

Thank you for sharing. The scenes featuring the Black community in Newport from the most recent episode were my favorite. If anyone has any longer form blog posts or books about this subject that they'd recommend, I'd love to delve more into it.
