After a year, doing my estrogen injections are just a normal, mildly annoying part of life, and not super exciting like they used to be. I know it was bound to happen at some point, but still a bit sad. On the other hand, there's something nice about feeling it's a natural part of life too, like it's just who I am and that's just normal, not weird or exciting.

hello

i am running out of room on my bed for more plushies and it is A Problem.

got to watch Nosferatu in a theater all to myself, which was great because 1) I feel awkward watching sex scenes with other people, even if they're strangers several feet away from me, and 2) I got to sit in girly positions without feeling self conscious about it, and stand up when I felt tired of sitting

It’s hard to scroll and watch reality tv when it’s in a foreign language

I have to start finding a replacement for my HRT soon, I only have enough to last the month... but theres so much fucking work to do fucking gah

Had to get some government stuff updated.

Thank god this trans guy is here to get my stuff squared away, every time I gotta do something government for my gender or name it's always like pulling teeth and "eh I dunno if we can do that..." until eventually I get someone who half asses it and I have to get whatever else fixed. Also, used my pronouns right keep on rocking 👍

Why are cigarettes deathly unhealthy when they're such a vibe?

Reminder to join our group chat :D We had a name change

Came out to a friend I haven't seen in a year last night. He asks, "What about your gender presentation/expression? You look the same as always." I want to be gracious, and I know he's just trying to be supportive and take an interest in my life, but the interview was kinda tough.

Hello dears I love you all so much. Thank you for helping me find my true self and for helping me learn how to live my life for me, fearlessly, happy at last. ❤️

Back on the mones, hopefully no more interruptions now that I've got my jizz frozen

Managed to fix my sleep schedule, then I woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare and couldn't sleep and now it's fucked again

mmmm....

long hair on back of neck feels nice :)

What if instead of hexbear it was hexcare for your trans comrades?

spoiler

i wish bean bags were good

When can I expect the increase in my emotional range now that I've got some estrogen flowing through me? Please don't tell me it depends like everything else 😭

Drinkin' gay baby juice

This shit ain't nothing to me man

Also lots of very feelings today

Just saw on xhs that some trans women in china use 🍥 as a trans symbol because of the packaging a lot of them get their E in.

This is so cute I love it, no notes.

There were like 10 boomers posted up outside the planned parenthood with nothing better to do than annoy people going in 🙄

I'm still thinking about what I'm going to be doing shortly after I'm done the 2 year return to service agreement up here in my home town

Long term, I do want to get something called an NP (masters degree, nurse practitioner, you get to prescribe with doctors supervision, they end up taking on a lot of care on more remote and rural areas cause we just don't have enough family GPs so it's like an NP is in town and a GP helps remotely that one and a few others). I do want to get into family medicine - it's a specific stream: neonate, family, adults - and I was hoping to focus on trans healthcare in particular up here where there is literally none. The closest is a 5 hour drive and he's retiring in short order but holding on purely for his trans patients...

I think I'd need some mental health nursing practice hours for my long term interests. When we did mental health in nursing school, it was really hard - I ended up identifying a lot with the patients and I'd get pissed we didn't let them smoke when they wanted or let them roam a little more freely, I even yelled at the nursing staff about it lol. I'm not looking forward to inpatient mental health care but I don't know what else to do, I still have like 8 months to think about it and look anyway. Otherwise, I could just keep working with kids. Pediatrics emergency, pediatrics ICU, maybe public health (lots of vaccinations and well baby visits etc).

Microplastics fuck with your hormones so I think it's fair to say everyone on Earth is on HRT
