I was planning to write a longer post for this mega and then Silksong happened so… oops?

Short version is this week is my 9th tranniversary. I don’t remember which day exactly so I like to say it was 9/11 so I’d never forget. What ultimately cracked my egg all those years ago was not the deep yearning when looking at women that I couldn’t identify as envy or the increasingly intense and umm horny dreams where I had the power to instantly change my gender. No it was that fucking faceapp gender swap filter. I just kept staring at that pic like it was a mirror into an alternate universe where I was happier and suddenly everything clicked into place. The first few years were hit or miss with a lot of other life changes happening at the time that interfered with getting properly started so in some ways it’s more like a 5 or 6 year tranniversary but whatever. vivian-shrug

It’s weird to say I’m almost done but I really am so close to making all the changes I wanted. I’ll never stop being trans, but I’m definitely moving from trans(itioning) femme to trans(itioned) femme and that’s quite exciting. And maybe a little wistful looking back at the journey.

Have a good week everyone!

    bottom dysohoria

    This is the first summer where Ive fucking hated having a gock!! I made my peace with her for a long time but tucking has been more a pain in my ass and more annoying and its been so hot out Ive wanted to wear shorts, and Ive worked out a bunch and lost some weight so I wanted to look hot.

    Im a top so its always been an uneasy alliance between me and her but getting a good strap has been a godsend. Cant wait until I get the surgeon to morph her into a vagina so we can BOTH be happier. Double sided dildo sounds fun as fuck!!

    Still blown away at how fast kimchi is to make. Conceptually it’s basically sauerkraut (salty fermented cabbage), but it’s ready in a couple days instead of a couple weeks? Fuck yeah. This shit rules.

    I had the worst day in a long time yesterday, first I woke up with a migraine, some guy wanted to rip me off on ebay, one of my cats pooped on the floor, my hacked together water bottle dispenser broke, I locked myself out, then I had to break into my own house which made my neighbors flip out thinking it was a burglar, and lastly I was late to work.
