I switched to patches (from pills) and you can really feel that shit hit the bloodstream almost immediately.

Hi Everyone! I'm planning on adding stuff here but first enjoy your new weekly mega <3
Join our public Matrix server!

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
Transdermal is way superior and not just because of the name.
I'm really annoying today, sorry everyone
Sleep deprived and kinda fucked up off pain meds for the hand
Honestly weirdly having a really good time? Like "okay cool, I'm wounded and people expect less of me irl now for awhile and are all really nice to me"
Feel like I exorcized something losing my shit the last time and everything's coming up Milhouse now 
One more cheesy thing before I go back to being cynical lol
Love and solidarity will win ♡
How do you feel out potential allies? I've been wanting to come out to my sister, but I don't want to do for now if her reaction isn't going to be positive. We have never talked about gender or sexuality in the same room, so I know nothing about her views on the matter. I also feel like I can't just randomly bring up the issue, because I think she would connect the dots.
Cis people rarely connect the dots, fwiw. They might after you come out and be like "oooooh, that's why you asked me about trans people."
You can talk about trumps executive order defining male/female (badly) at conception, see how she feels about it. Joke about how it defined everyone as a woman or non-binary.
It would somewhat weird to bring up american politics with her, but I think your idea of bringing up some adjacent contemporary topic to be great. Thanks!

When you are explaining everything that’s wrong with your body to someone and they give you the non-bdd stare.
guess what?
Friday Rice! 
Had rice and kimchi jjigae tonight
i love little rituals like this
Behold, my 1000th comment! 
So finally, a decade after cracking my egg and 5 years of HRT, I’m going to legally change my name and sex. But oh boy is this giving me a headache. Just so much bureaucratic bullshit I have to wade through and navigate.
And on top of that [CW: institutional transphobia]:
This week there was a new court ruling here in Austria that could potentially make this whole process illegal. It was specifically about enbies but in the ruling they included a paragraph about your "biological sex" being the deciding factor. That means that in the worst case it could affect all trans people, including me. So amazing timing for me... like it just had to happen at the exact same day that I started the whole process -.-
My nerves are completely done because of this and fucking RIP my sleeping schedule 
But when this Herculean task is over, I’m going to enjoy some nice teas that I ordered recently: A really fancy sheng pu-erh from 2007, some tea that is supposedly from the 80s and another one from the 70s, so over 50 years old. 
I also got myself a nice light-blue celadon teacup that I can use together with my pink gaiwan and my white gong dao bei on top of my ebony tea tray. Perfect set-up to celebrate this special occasion.

The struggle for trans lives is a struggle we can win, we must win, and we will win.
Stay alive ♡
"Relationships with parents can be difficult, but mine aren't that bad, they tried to make me detransition and almost murdered me, but it could be worse 
"
this is like half of the trans people I know and it makes me concerned

thinking i might need to 
for a little while, all the news about trump is making me super anxious and im adjusting my anxiety meds rn lol
name update (this body of text became way more than the name update)
So update from a few months ago (probably more than a few at this point) but I'm still in name purgatory. I have a name that I use now, and a name that I used before that one, both outside of the original deadname. However, I don't really like either of them, and any names I come up with myself can't seem to stick, don't feel like they fit 1/2 the time, or both. So, a solution: have other people come up with names for me! However, this doesn't always work, and more serves as a brainstorming process. My mom already did it, and a lot of the names, if not all of them after reading the books she got them from, didn't fit. My sister has now come up with a list and given it to me. It's a lot smaller, but she's also not at all afraid of showing her bias. There's one name in particular that she really likes for me, and she made that quite obvious. I think I'm going to sit down with her tomorrow and pick one of them to use, at least for a few months (and I'll probably pick another one as well, as a "middle" name but actually more of a second name). If it doesn't stick, rinse and repeat, but I hope something manages to stick eventually. I don't know why I really struggle to identify with names, and it's not exactly something new to transition either. Don't ask me to come up with usernames for myself, I really struggle to and it ends up being something basic (like Luna), or something basic (like AshenWolf), and I could not for the life of me pick something more fitting. It's either just a name that happens to be moon in spanish that ended up being a funny Fire Emblem reference, or AshenWolf, another Fire Emblem reference.
I ended up going on a bit of a tangent, and I'm going to keep going, but I think I have a lot of issues with a static identity. I feel like I'm always changing based on the situation, putting on different masks (not necessarily positive or negative) and becoming different people depending on who might handle the situation best. It's why I'm always changing my pronouns, profile picture, etc. I'm trying something new with using two accounts on here, one with she/her pronouns and one with she/they pronouns and switching based on how I feel or what persona I feel like posting with. I'm going to be honest, things like username, profile picture, even previous history, affect how I post. Luna is a certain persona, and AshenWolf is another, and it's quite weird how sending one thing from one account just feels wrong on the other. I guess that's another reason for changing profile pictures so much, maybe.
Regardless, and because I'm just going to ramble and repeat my points, I'm sure I'll find a name, or even a couple, that will stick. For now though, it feels like the usernames (Luna, AshenWolf + variations like Ash) stick better than names for me, but I also don't know if I could see myself using them as IRL names, and not just for opsec reasons. Okay I'm done now, hopefully you all don't think the accounts talking to you have been frauds, despite a lack of concrete identity and the persona talk I assure you that they're not and they're both genuine parts of me.
If you somehow made it to the end, thanks for reading this wacky vent of a wall of text.
I love my trans comrades

Planet fitness lunk alarm is discriminatory toward lunks like myself 
I've no other means to compensate for my inadequate life than through being toxic at the gym
They really wouldn’t like me today, we’re lifting with chains over here! Clink clink clink! Chain days are fun.
Yoooo that sounds like a lot of fun, I've seen some vids where they use chains but never tried it myself
It’s so much fun! If you find a place that’ll let you play with them I definitely recommend it. Bands are also fun to play with, both regular and reverse, but they don’t satisfy my desire for clinks. I know some gyms frown on them as well, but they’re cheaper, easier to find, and much easier to put in a bag, so if you want to play with variable resistance that may be the way to go! Plus they’re more likely to be in a gym already for like, pull-ups or stretching or whatever.
get strong enough to throw the weights at anyone who is complaining about you dropping weights
This is they way
