K (189?–?) Soviet pioneer. From Kazan, Tartarstan, USSR, K was diagnosed as a ‘transvestite’ in 1937.

She was given permission by the People’s Court to wear female clothing, her identity papers were changed to her female name, and her name was removed from the military recruitment rolls.

would anyone here be interested in collaborating on cryptpad to write up a "Why Hexbear?" blurb for trans people for the sidebar? i know a couple people that are trying to hook hexbear into more trans spaces and having a central doc they can point to when people ask why they should switch to hexbear might be useful thonk-trans

would be especially helpful if you found hexbear useful for your transition and wanted to talk about it to more people

join this matrix address if youre interested : https://matrix.to/#/!fYvKJEPbxrfVxxHRPn:matrix.org?via=matrix.org we'll be using it for general propaganda activities i think

Oh, it's November, time to change my pfp back

Hmm... Do I still want this BOY as my pfp? Will probably change it again soon...

Edit: hm, yeah, I got another lined up. Stay tuned

[-] lilypad@hexbear.net 7 points 3 hours ago

Just got back from a show, it was the first show ive been to in years. It was so fun!!! Like 90% trans people, it was perfect ^^ felt actually comfy there, surrounded by beautiful trans people and listening to power violence ^^

Thinking about buying some fairy lights for my room, is aliexpress alright? I don't have experience buying electronics from there so I'm not sure of good strategy to make sure its electrically safe

[-] Zvyozdochka@hexbear.net 7 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

I wouldn't really worry about it, I got mine from Aliexpress and they've been going strong for a couple of years. Everything on every other web store is drop shipped from Aliexpress these days anyway. If you have pets, try to keep them out of reach/away from the ground so they don't chew on the little strands of wire that the lights are attached to and you will be fine!

who says depression has to be seasonal? it's still 80 degrees here and i feel like shit

[-] JohnBrownsBussy2@hexbear.net 15 points 7 hours ago

Thesis defended. Am now Dr. Gay.

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 12 points 8 hours ago

Are all of the transes depressed in autumn or something?

We've been getting btfo by the news mega.

Unacceptable.

Someone start posting controversial takes to drive engagement.

[-] naom3@hexbear.net 5 points 6 hours ago

I don’t think I’m depressed (this-is-fine) but I am a lot more busy with school

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 5 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

Autumn is usually when my seasonal depression starts to act up, yea.

I'll try to post more ohnoes I don't want the news to win...

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 4 points 4 hours ago

Well, your depression posting does make the number go up...

But we prefer when you're happy doggirl-happy

[-] buh@hexbear.net 7 points 7 hours ago

The theory on that (the spike then fall in trans mega posting) that I’ve been keeping in my back pocket is that “I Saw the TV Glow” becoming available on VOD in July caused a spike in eggs cracking. But maybe it’s just projection lol

Historically, even BCE, Autumn is my favorite season. It just makes me feel all wistful and shit so I’m (a little) less online, and maybe it’s the same with others.

I feel the same way. I'm complaining but I'm posting less too lol

[-] Chronicon@hexbear.net 6 points 6 hours ago

in hindsight I've become more critical/less impressed by that movie but it was kind of a push I needed at the time

[-] Luna@hexbear.net 8 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

I don't know, I've been feeling a lot better since autumn started, I was more depressed in the summer. Have noticed a lot of people not feeling well, though.

I'll post something really controversial, don't worry 🫡

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 9 points 8 hours ago

I feel WAY better in autumn because I can wear more clothes!

Summer fashion is 🤮

[-] Luna@hexbear.net 7 points 8 hours ago

Very real. It's also just way too hot and humid 😖

[-] buh@hexbear.net 9 points 8 hours ago

I think I can manage bottom dysphoria if I can find a way to never have spontaneous erections again 🤔

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 6 points 5 hours ago

So, I see people here talking about spontaneous erections. Do people get erections just chilling doing nothing and then you have an erection?

Or just talking about the morning? But that doesn't seem spontaneous.

[-] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 4 points 4 hours ago

talkin bout bonersFor a cis guy with a penis, it's supposed to periodically fill while asleep - "morning wood." It can also happen during REM sleep, usually it cycles a few times a night. All very typical physiology. For a girl or enby with a penis who doesnt want one, this can be dysphoric obviously.

Spontaneous during the day erections definitely are more common during puberty, but can be a thing that happens into adulthood. Sometimes it's in response to the normal varying cycle of testeosterone doing it's thing, sometimes in response to some kind of stimulation (like riding a diesel engine bus that rumbles), but it's not ever in response to sexual stimuli. An erection in response to something sexual is just expected lol, no need for the spontaneous label.

If it wasn't something that happened to you post puberty, no big deal that's fine and normal too. My spontaneous erections vastly decreased compared to puberty when I was an adult, and they've now stopped after enough E and T blockers. When they happened, yeah it could be from nothing, literally just sitting down.

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 5 points 3 hours ago

spoilerPuberty sucked. Glad that's behind me.

Well, I've got second puberty in front of me, so... That one might be better

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 3 points 4 hours ago

Sometimes, yes. I feel like it happens more when I haven't masturbated in a while.

I think those count as spontaneous too, since you aren't trying for it.

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 4 points 4 hours ago

genitals, sexSorry, I'm just trying to figure out if my dick has non-typical behavior lol

So this is to say that you're not thinking anything sexual, and it just happens?

It only happens to me if I'm thinking something horny. That's more likely to happen if I haven't orgasmed in a while, but I guess it's hard to tell if the body is causing the thoughts or the thoughts are causing the body to react. Or if I'm touched in a particular way, even if I'm not horny.

It's never like, unprompted, tho. Not since puberty.

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 4 points 4 hours ago

spoilerI'm pretty sure either way is typical, I don't think you need to worry.

Yes, no horny thoughts at all. One of the more recent times I remember I was curled up crying and it just happened shrug-outta-hecks Maybe I'm not the right person to talk to though, its not like a daily thing.

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 4 points 4 hours ago

spoilerI'm not worried, the rest of me is weird, so it's no surprise that my dick is weird, too!

[-] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 8 points 6 hours ago

Mine went away with hrt, which was a big relief. Stopped around getting to 4 mg E sublingual.

Looking through my journal, as I do whenever the date is somewhat significant. Went back to June/July era, and I was so cute and hopeful doggirl-happy. I was excited to get on HRT because it would make me look pretty (my words, not mine), and I screamed (wrote in all caps) that my breasts were going to grow (again, my words, not mine). These two phrases essentially lined a whole page of my composition notebook of a journal, I was so hyped! Well, look at me now, making progress bridget-pride

I'm still hopeful for the future, very much so, but I've lived like this for a few months now. It feels like an amazing new normal. There's just something about it being new, though. The extreme levels of enthusiasm, excitement, and hope I recorded, while at the same time wondering what's on the other side, not knowing what's to come. It's better now, but it's amazing to look back on how I was a few months ago.

TL;DR, start keeping a journal if you don't already. It can serve many purposes, and it allows for looking back at the good things, and venting about the bad things. I never thought I would be able to journal, and that I wasn't much of a journalist, but I started, made it a thing I did every day, and I've only missed two days in my approx. 175 days of journaling.

[-] MusicOwl@hexbear.net 4 points 7 hours ago

I tried again today. Helped me gather my thoughts in a manner I haven't in a while.

spoilerAND I'LL DO IT AGAIN screm-pretty

[-] Thallo@hexbear.net 4 points 8 hours ago

I've tried journaling so many times in my life. I really can't maintain it.

Things like this make it sound really sweet, though, and make me want to try again~

"I post better when I'm tired" still being a fact of life for me. Maybe I was meant to be sleep-deprived and without energy...

Well, we voted to reject the proposal. So, unless the government changes very rapidly... we voted to strike.
