ouhhh i didn’t realize it worked to browse, also. thanks!

any chance that someone could source this for a guy who doesn’t use the nazi hell site?

i feel like this comment is actually rooted in concern that talking about suicidal ideation increases it, and, while i don’t have studies to support it, talking about it certainly doesn’t increase the actual rate of suicide, and i believe openly talking about it lowers the barrier to people being able to get help when the thoughts actually become dangerous

certainly, at least i’ve heard from plenty of people who deal with these sort of thoughts, that not being able to express them can isolate and distance them further from their friends and community (a notably more dangerous situation). so, while the increase in dialogue about suicidal ideation makes me sad, i’m at least happy that it’s increasingly normal for people not to suffer in silence

but as an aside, gatekeeping suicidal ideation is crazy lmfao

completely unrelated, this study showing people who win in a rigged (in their favor) game of monopoly tend to attribute their wins to skill instead of their doubled starting money 💀 https://uomod.com/the-psychology-of-privilege-how-a-rigged-monopoly-game-revealed-the-dark-side-of-advantage/

many people in potioncraft:

i think it would be pretty cool for you to ask them to sign a pride flag though. be normal about it, but they’ll be flattered. it’s a cool project

you can try lite salt, it’s sodium salt cut with potassium salt! (i do this for keto but it should work well for workout purposes too)

lmfao god, i’m like the worst guy to ask, my style leans heavily pink/flowery/femme. maybe a symbol one could get tattoed on them?

but i’m thinking about the way my transmasc (masc) friends and how they dress and all of it is just… ugh LOL i hate typical men’s fashion

uhh, there’s a lot of good and valid discourse about cis men and their perceptions and opinions here. and i think that comment was probably about the cis or cis-passing male experience

but there’s some unique aspects to being transmasc that suck and feel comparable to being bisexual, with both of us kind of being invisible to society (frequently, anyways; not claiming this applies 100% of the time)

it seems like there’s a lower bar to passing for trans men (on average, again); this is, generally speaking, a positive in a transphobic society. but it can also be very lonely and isolating, in ways. it’s hard to be really known and a lot of people don’t even know trans men exist

like i’ve thought about this, and there’s just not a good way to advertise that you’re a trans man. if i’m flying the trans flag colors, people think i’m a pre-transition transfem LOL we don’t have a cohesive and meme-y culture of cat ears and thigh highs, there’s nothing i can wear that’s like “oh that guy’s trans(masc)”

i mean, i guess i could take my shirt off, but i don’t even think most people would clock me 💀

anyways i’m just kind of rambling now. but i thought it would be good to have some actual transmasc input on this post lol

i’ve never understood this sort of masculinity, but i also have people who need me to be alive to continue living, and i assume that changes the math (transmasc, since i figure people will wonder, and i’m fine with this being the one thing where i’m not a real man lol)

what’s uhhh, what’s the implication here. because that hand position implies holding down and fucking, but the way the legs are positioned absolutely do not

could do a riding thing if you have a dick and you’re being held down by someone with a vagina, i guess, but i feel like that’s also a different interpretation of what’s happening

(mostly joking / overthinking)

“i don’t have a partner because [only theyfabs] asked me out” is an insane cope, that’s a skill issue

yeah i remember those insecure assholes. annoyed the shit out of me

glad this community isn’t like that :) fuck reddit, and welcome

does the guy you like recognize you as a guy?

this is so real. dresses looked alright on me and then i became much closer to a bear and it’s. less good.

which is even more incredibly fucked when you consider the illusory truth effect, or the effect of something seeming more truthful by the mere repeated exposure to it (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illusory_truth_effect)

i’ve found that therapy is good for practicing social skills, and explaining your feelings to other people. these are generally valuable skills, but they lack in what you’re looking for - trying to get yourself to a less reactive state

have you read a book called “the body keeps the score”? it talks a lot about PTSD/CPTSD, the causes, and, most relevantly, the treatments. if you want to stick to therapy, i would suggest EMDR, it seems to have better outcomes for people dealing with trauma. for stuff you can do today, i would practice 4-7-8 breathing and yoga. down the line, i would recommend looking into neurofeedback. it helped me a ton. but i think breathing + yoga are sort of the slow, manual path that neurofeedback takes you down, and are worthwhile in their own respect

good luck in your journey, i hope you find this helpful. one day, may trauma be as easy to treat as any other condition humans can be afflicted with

(the headline) by that you mean, senate republicans are ransoming americans’ healthcare for discrimination

(real question) is there a non-carb grain? is there a grain that’s mostly protein? (a lot of keto stuff has pea protein…) (i’m almost certain there’s no FAT based grain 😭)

yeah it seems a lot trickier to discuss the HRT relevant to us. i don’t think it’s necessarily invalid to have linked it here, but…
