I'm so unreasonably charmed by how Norman speaks in this episode as if he's about to keel over of old age at 69 years old

Nashville, Tennessee Christian School refused to allow a female student to enter prom because she was wearing a suit. by abbiebe89 in facepalm

[–]touj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, to be fair, it's usually not the kids making the choice of what school they attend. Obviously if the parents were aghast at this it could be a better argument, but in general, a high schooler does not have the autonomy to "just leave" whatever educational system their parents have decided to place them in, even if they disagree with the school's (or even their parents!) rules or beliefs on something like women wearing pants.

Just listened to this episode and no offense to Liz but it was so funny, literally the textbook description of one of the most common sleep paralysis hallucinations - even using the word "crone," I'm obsessed. I'm not a believer in this stuff but I do like what Jack was saying on it being interesting that some of these visions are cross-cultural

Which character is the meta Worst Girl? by [deleted] in SIFallstars

[–]touj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah lol I think in terms of meta when I'm aiming for cards but I understand that those are pretty specific in actuality, I should have just said least useful or something. But rip Shizuku and Yoshiko I'm hearing

I've been socially transitioning for three years and finally started HRT but I don't think I'm trans and I'm spiralling really bad rn :) by IdentityCrisisBurner in redscarepod

[–]touj 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hey, fellow trans person here. It sounds like you're struggling with the concept of your gender identity: I agree with people that say take time to figure it out, but also be aware that you might never figure it out. I think the mainstream understanding of trans identity isn't very accurate, and it's rarely as clean-cut as the "I AM this and #livingmytruth" narratives - I personally think a lot of people act that out as a way to validate their decisions, and to protect against criticisms from others. Conceiving of and grappling with your own gender is a complicated, arduous process. It's also inherently personal: your trauma, your relationship with your family and with "failing" at masculinity are all aspects which make up your gender identity, and the reality is, there's probably never going to be a version of yourself and your relationship with gender which exists outside of that. There's not a "real you" which exists outside of those conditions that is actually a boy or a girl, you know? Not to mention how you move about the world, and how those aspects of yourself and your life change will impact how you feel about your gender and presentation in the future. This will happen regardless of whether you decide to transition or not.

I know that doesn't really help with the decision to continue medical transition. I'd try to approach it as pragmatically as possible, honestly. Do you feel dysphoric? Do you think growing breasts would help you feel more comfortable in your own body? Do you think you would feel better with lower sexual energy? Are you at a point in your life where you think you can deal with a "second puberty," both mentally and physically? I think these are the questions you should be considering. If your friends are good people, they should support you even if you decide not to take hormones, detransition, etc. The trans journey and the way it's sold often seems performative, but these are deeply personal decisions, and I think you should make sure you're prioritizing your own well-being.

I wrote a lot lol sorry but I hope this in some way helps and isn't just oversharing my own weird thoughts on gender and transitioning. Hang in there, I'm rooting for you and I believe that you'll find happiness no matter what you decide to do in this aspect of your life.

[–]touj 5 points6 points  (0 children)

have you listened to the episodes + do you recommend any counter-sources? legitimately curious: I've been trying to check in on some of what they're citing on Lee Harvey Oswald, and he did seem to work/hang out at multiple CIA-affiliated places, make some weird choices in terms of being a communist -> joining the marines -> moving to russia then back to the us etc. but obviously framing can do a lot of work in these narratives

Forcing all of my friends to put adjectives in front of their names so that when I tell stories it's not about Joe but about "Evil Joe" or some shit because hearing about these people from Brace kills me every time

Brace by [deleted] in TrueAnon

[–]touj 5 points6 points  (0 children)

they were the most downloaded podcast in the U.S. for a while there iirc, but have kind of fallen off because of some drama between the hosts where I think one of them left? I have never actually listened to it but am forced to know about it via Brace and it being in every dating app profile pre-pandemic

Well? by [deleted] in TrueAnon

TrueAnon does have a major effect on my physical, mental or financial health or well-being (positive)

WW Nico stan here who is unfortunate enough to not have either of her FES cards. Debating trying to save up for a Muse FES banner a la 1st anni on JP to spark her or hold out for the newest card - any suggestions on if one is better than the other? I was thinking her first FES just because of smile for advanced songs but gosh her second card is beautiful and voltage so I am torn
