Wow, those are absolutely breathtaking. Great photography, too!

Pretty good! Just got back from a trip with a transmasc friend and we got matching tattoos

Edit: srry, I was boarding a train when I read your response and I thought you said your day was good, whoops! Why was your day bad?

How was your day

My transition’s been going decently well. I’m only about a year into HRT, so I have some physical changes yet to go, and possible surgery on the horizon, but socially things have been going really good! I am out at work, at home, and with all my friends, and it’s been nice to be called Astrid by qll the people in my life.

More often than not, I look in the mirror and like the person I see. Sometimes I worry that I am still visually exactly the same when other people look at me, but what can ya do 🤷‍♀️

Aw, thank you! They have really helped me feel like myself ♥️

The dress makes me so happy. My friend’s mom told me it might be a good one to compliment my current shape, and I think she was spot on. She did get me my first pair of heels, but they are just black. I have many shoes to buy in the future lol

Thank you!

I feel so fortunate to have such incredible support in my life ♥️ Thank you!

Thank you so much! I have always wanted to wear the Velma fit lol, dream come true

Thank you! Yes, it made me tear up, just such a kind thing to do. The outfits feel wonderful to wear!

LMAO, the perfect soundtrack. Montage of e injections and limitless attempts at winged eyeliner!

Thank you!

Oh good, I’m so glad I could help give hope for you in your transition! I thought I was kind of hopeless before, but sticking with it has ended up being really rewarding. I am sure it is the same for you. Thank you!

It’s been making me smile all day ☺️ Thank you!

Those glasses go perfectly with your lipstick shade! They both suit you so well 🙌

My week was very not good, sadly. I had to take my grandpa to the ER on Friday, and then I got broken up with Friday evening. Had a ten hour video shoot Saturday, just been pretty overwhelmed with work and home life in general. Things will work out ok, but this week has been a lot lol

“.get” on a dictionary saves so much space, gonna use that all the time! Thank you!

My week has been great! I went to a drag brunch today and needed to figure out what outfit to wear. I found a little goth dress that I bought many years ago when I was firmly in the closet, which had made me dysphoric back then because it didn’t fit. Today I tried it on, and it fit great! I received many compliments, and it was super fun to celebrate pride in my local community.

I hope you’re all having a great week, too!

Heck yeah! It’s my first summer wearing dresses and flowy things too. Feels so freeing to be able to dress how you please and take full advantage of the hotter seasons! I hope you love it!

Huh, a long faucet ad in Vietnamese posted to the Star Trek lemmy community. How in the world has this come to pass? lol

I had this building feeling that it was something I wanted for myself, and it was growing for a long time as I came to understand more about my identity. I was also deeply afraid though, so I totally get what you mean. I thought that I’d have to commit all the way from the get-go, and that sudden physical changes would mess up my life.

I talked with a transgender friend of mine, and he reassured me that it was ok not to know my destination, and I could just start E on a low dose, go slow, and see how I feel. It’s a lot less frightening when you know you can change your mind whenever.

I just ended up finding that the longer I was on it, the more like “myself” I felt, and that point where I changed my mind never came. It is so much easier to get started on something big like transitioning if you take it a tiny bit at a time and check with yourself to see if you’re still on the right path for you.

Oh my! Unexpected frost is the last thing you want. I’m glad you’re prepared though, seems like those plants are in good hands!

I just finished planting a bunch of melons and amaranth yesterday. This year, I’m intent on harvesting amaranth seeds and doing my best to make some edible bread out of the flour! We’ll see how it goes. We don’t have the biggest garden this year, but we have enough to keep us busy. Been fun, so far!
