I finally got around to seeing “I Saw The TV Glow”, and it definitely lived up to the hype.

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.

    It seems that all the working on my appearance has paid off because someone called me hot today! That’s the first time I’ve ever had that happen.

    Problem is I have literally no idea how to flirt so I kinda just smiled and walked away. What the fuck are you supposed to do when that happens

    My body frame sucks for wearing cute clothes, and yet I wear them anyway (at home).

    I try to buy jewelry, but all the women’s rings are the wrong sizes. There was a pretty cute butterfly ring that I wanted. But it didn’t fit, and searching for sizes was getting awkward as I stood there with a friend (male) who doesn’t know about me being trans in a store completely where only women were buying stuff from catgirl-cry.

    CW just in case: weight stuff

    I know I should be more accepting of my body, but I really do want to loose weight 🙃. Ain’t nothing I can do about it cept getting off my bum and exercising. Ain’t gonna ruin my health by going on some crazy diet. I don’t stick to that shit anyways. Pointless to try.

    One neighbor woman who lives in the same building as me really stresses me out. The hair, the outfits, the walk… I’m pretty sure we were in school together, but I didn’t see her really in the spring, so I thought she graduated and moved.

    Anyway my assumption is “oh she’s already heard stuff about me” because of how small the school is. Like, I know she’s friends with the girlfriend of a classmate of mine. I’m like “she’s heard about me, she has an opinion about me”.

    But she’s really pretty and she always has friends hanging out and wears great outfits. I feel myself unable to speak. And like, what would I say, besides “may I have girl lessons please thank you”

    I’m getting ma’amed by strangers more often and it’s a weird feeling. Not that I’m complaining. It’s great. I guess it’s just very surprising to me

    My workplace holds a pride picnic at the office every year, but since the supreme court ruling (uk), many of the staff that attend are refusing as the company won’t make a statement confirming it will not follow the “interim guidance” that would essentially ban our one (1) trans employee from using the toilets at the office, and encourage more to be at risk of harassment.

    Since we WFH usually these social events are the only times many of us visit the office, but also how HR tries to lure us back since the CEO is subtly pro-RTO.

    Since we’re a subsidiary of a big insurance conglomerate, HR is trying to palm it off to them and saying they’re “still discussing” the implications of following it or not. They’ve also tried to dangle a carrot in front of LGBT staff by saying they could organise a fundraiser to make the picnic “not just a token event”, and avoided the reason AGAIN.

    TLDR: I got added to the EDI (Bri’ish for DEI) slack channel where this was being discussed and wrote a massive statement about how the ruling was pseudoscientific bullshit that’ll only make LGBT staff not wanna work here, and if they dont wanan work here neither will I.

    So looking forward for the day to end and coming back to bed cocooned with my plushies around me pika-cousin-suffering it’s my self care routine after a long ass week of feeling dumb and embarrassed about stuff. Might dip into my clay masks and indulge in some cookies I got from the dollar store too while I’m at it.

    i have so many obvious grey hairs but i think they’re kinda cute! they just look a bit out of place… if i’m going to dye my hair i don’t just want to go brown or blonde, so i’m thinking i could lean into the grey a bit and go with like a silver vibe? i’m kinda scared that bleach will damage it but surely there’s ways to avoid that?
