I'm booking an appointment and the only gender neutral honorific is Dr. So fuck it, if you have to call me something, call me Doctor Moss. Doc Moss is acceptable.
Unironically wish I could put in Comrade instead of Mr or Miss or whatever

Trans Megathread for the Week of 2025-01-06 to 2025-01-12 - Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky
(hexbear.net)
Children of Time is a 2015 science fiction novel by Adrian Tchaikovsky.
In the distant future, humanity seeks to create new habitats for itself on distant planets, terraforming them and seeding them with life. Dr. Avrana Kern is heading one such project, orbiting the tentatively named "Kern's World", where the plan is to release monkeys 
infected with a nanovirus that will accelerate their evolution. Through an act of sabotage from an anti-technology group that has also destroyed much of Earth, the monkeys are never released, and the virus instead infects a species of spider, Portia labiata. The book follows the evolution of the spiders and their eventual civilisation, as well as a remnant of humanity that fled to Kern's World hoping to find paradise.
also children of ruin and children of memory, the sequels, are really good

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.
Canβt you just leave it blank?
Actually that migjt have been an option I didn't check lol
No, no. Doctor is the clear winner
buying the cheapest men's shaving gel instead of the same thing in a pink box and double the price from the woman's aisle 
Sometimes the pink tax is pure bullshit but sometimes it's because E really does change your skin. And sometimes it's cultural stuff, women's deodorant is actually just deodorant for people who shave their pits - if someone didn't they'd be better off with "mens" deodorant. Womens shaving cream usually has moisturizers and makes your skin smoother
alcohol
Fucked up rn but felt kinda weird about "ze/hir" lately despite them being rad asf pronouns imho
Think I'm still mostly a "they/them" but being a "she/her" trans femme on occasion mite b cool
You know, just to cement the "lol definitely not a guy" feeling home
Or fuck, could I possibly be a binary trans woman instead of a weird enby that I've been living as for like a decade now???
Fuck idk
Idk maybe refer to me with she/her for awhile and I'm seeing if that's actually right or not, sorry
Like I came out gender wise as a trans woman initially a long time ago, then felt more comfortable being nonbinary, and I guess now I've kinda done full circle?
I dunno
I'm queer
spoiler . and my junk is small
:::
I'm in a similar position, might fjck with they/she. And wore a dress awhile ago. Didn't feel any gender feelings, just thought I looked pretty in it.

Witch hazel remains great for my skin and makes me feel like a witch 
Finally gonna go to my GP today and ask for a referal to a transgender clinic. I'm so excited/nervous I couldn't even sleep.
Going in for my first appointment at the clinic was so great. Everyone was beyond considerate, just really happy for me and encouraging
Having that first appointment at a gender clinic changed my life. Haven't even started hormones yet, but I feel like a new woman
omg good luck!! you got this

I decided to check up on r/MTF, which I haven't done in a long time. Unsurprisingly, that sub is still as embarrassingly lib as it ever was. More so than most other trans subs. They're still unable to connect the dots, and constantly making excuses for democrats, and acting like they're protectors of trans rights while they've actually shown that they do not care. Now I remember why I stopped visiting that place years ago. I have little patience for this lib shit.
every trans person should do themselves the favor of shooting their inner redditor, getting off that hellsite has done me nothing but good

i think this is the second time i get to post this emoji in this mega:
Lord help me quit TikTok. Iβm so tired of the weird prescriptivism that invades queer discourse there. And what happened to the trans prime directive? Every single video with someone saying eggy shit is full of comments just telling that person theyβre trans and to start hormones. And it understandably freaks people out. Itβs the same 3 egg jokes over and over and the person gets absolutely no support because people are too busy making inside jokes. Not to mention everyone jumping straight to the person being not only trans, but binary trans.
imo the trans prime directive is lame but there's definitely a right way and a wrong way to go about things. and can't imagine being bombarded by tiktok comments is the right way

A thrift store near me is doing a sale where a ton of the stuff there is 80% off and the rest is 25% off so I might be taking home a giant haul
Yoooo, love me these sales it's how I get my drip
depression/dysphoria/dooming
I've been crying all day. It hurts so much. I could barely talk earlier. So dysphoric about my voice. Just in general too.
I keep doing worse and worse. I've been "trying" (half assed and lazily) to get my shit together for years. Haven't been able to. I'm doing worse now. So how am I going to be able to now when I couldn't then.
I can't start hrt because I can't get better. I can't get better because I'm trapped in a disgusting man body with a disgusting man voice. There's nothing to do. I can't force myself to get better. To work on myself, to voice train, none of it. I can't. I never really could. Not quitting if I never tried.
I have failed life. So many things I will never get to see or experience. Because I'm a failure. All evidence points to me just being born wrong. Defective. Whatever ig. What makes a person turn out like this. I can't blame my parents. They tried. I wish I tried harder. Whatever. Hurts too much. What a shame. Not good enough to even try. I am such a disgusting waste of life. I wish I could give this to someone else.
