this week's mood:
i don't pass and i am determined to make it everyone else's problem
I love how Rust is the official trans language lmao
Rust is fucking amazing anybody that hates Rust is just a pissy little baby that doesn't have the attention span to learn how to deal with the borrow checker and some of the async quirks and is jealous of the people that can. I will absolutely die on this hill, Rust is light itself.
Compile times suck if you don't have a powerful workstation/laptop tho.
i finally got around to telling that one girl i like her and asked if she felt anything for me back. her answer was neither yes or no but a "when do you want to meet up?"
oh okay and here i thought i was the dramatic bitch and former theater kid. this girl is leaving me on a cliff hanger
Well, based on the voting, it looks Tracha will soon become a matrix space (or something very similar to it)!
Hopefully this might allow for more topic-based discussion, and discussions can be less overwhelming for those who need it to be that way (hi).
I know there was a whole thing about Nirvana and Kurt Cobain and Gender but I was listening to The Smashing Pumpkins and damn, some of the lyrics and songwriting smacks of Gender
I know part of it is my own feelings and being really into them as a kid and teenager but like
It all goes wrong, she sets things tragic
She is Venus, she is Mars
She's electric and the struggler
Upon the face we leave no trace
But in her stomach Mercury aged
She holds the blood, she carves the knives
She digs the wires in our babies
("Annie-Dog" from Adore)
More from that and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness really read as uh, at least conflicted about gender stuff
alcoholism/relapse, self psychoanalysis, family shit, aging pet worries
Relapsed, feel bad, also feel worse about not feeling worse if that makes sense
Angry at self wanting to be perfect and a teetotaler
Angry that I also feel completely justified when I disappoint myself because I never felt good enough for my dad and he's the reason I became an alcoholic in the first place, and now dealing with him is what causes me to relapse
Meemaw cat gets mini seizures and flops over like she got a leg cramp and a really bad itch and will fall out of a chair when that happens
Spent all evening at the gym, go check on parents tired and burned out (failed my leg press sets, didn't have enough in the tank to stick to my rowing schedule either)
She has one of her mini seizures, flops out of her chair into his lap, claws his leg accidentally (it's a completely unintentional thing, she's done it to me and would never hurt me and she's 16 and I've had her and her sister ((RIP)) since she was a kitten)
He's drunk as always and says some nasty shit about her (she's an absolute angel and he's a disgusting decrepit braindead miserable piece of shit)
Immediately start wishing he'd just fucking die already, wish my mom divorced him before I was born, wish I'd never had to know him, etc
Take care of their dishes, laundry, scoop her box, take out the trash, clean her bowls, fill them and get her fresh water, put away their dinner leftovers they left out (I feel taken advantage of, they're not that incapable)
Leave and go buy a box of wine and a flask size plastic bottle of bottom shelf vodka (my shifting sobriety self rule was "no spirits")
Walk to gym because it's the only other place I go, do ab and back stuff I skipped
Pick up trash on side of road, pick flowers from bougie gated community's front gate for my windowsill
Listen to podcasts
Angry at everything
Gonna go walk home drunk and stop to stare at a fountain while I listen to angsty music
Maybe tomorrow I can be happier with myself but for tonight I'm fucking livid at everything and exhausted and feel pathetic and am so fucking mad at my shitty parents
The kindest self dialogue I've been able to muster lately keeps coming back to "well no wonder you suck, look at how and by whom you were raised"
Thanks brain
what is it about protestantism that makes them post the worst memes you've ever seen
they gave out scented candles in the gift bags at work and I think I'm going to have to become a scented candle gal. My life is going to be like that dril tweet
every so often i'll see a cool image from warhammer 40k and think that i want to learn more. every time i choose not to, and that's probably for the best

alcohol, nicotine, self crit, bit of preening too, dysphoria and some weird sexuality discomfort stuff
Telling myself "I'll stop drinking and smoking again after New Year's"
Neglected my upper body shit and just did cardio today but honestly had my best session ever??? Hit 1111 kcals burned on incline treadmill in one sesh and was going for more than an hour without a break
Did good on household chore stuff and the kitties were pretty good today
Feeling weird about myself tbh
Like, not even necessarily bad but odd, I've felt a bit more masc/butch than I usually do lately and I dunno what to make of that
Part of it is presenting kinda more androgynous and spending a lot of time in proximity to gym bros and not wanting to stand out too bad in an uncomfortable way and masking my gender shit and queerness
Part of it could be endocrinology shit from exercising a ton and my levels might be out of whack in a more masc skew
Libido's been higher than usual? Kind of an annoying chore tbh, I've kinda felt like I did fairly early into both of my puberties where it was like "goddamit, seriously again??"
Feel bad about looking at random ppl with some thirst, especially women and feel bad about feeling like my attractions and impulses are too male and feel bad for the women like in the abstract just from being attracted to them
Feel bad about weird smut shit I've looked at that was hot and then immediately off-putting after uh, interest wore of because off uhh, accomplishing the goal there
Have some weird feelings and thoughts about gender and sexuality and idk if I wanna get into them now but idk, feel weird
I neglected some self care grooming shit today just out of exhaustion and feel bad about it
I feel like I'm craving some feminine social interaction and femmy stuff for myself, I don't remember the last time I wore makeup or dressed up or did a manicure and I feel like I'm neglecting part of myself and feel kinda sad about it
Generally lonely and weird feeling
Idk, but I'm glad to be able to post here and interact with you lovely ppl
queer embarrassing weeb shit
been on a JoJo kick lately
put a cable station chain on my coat epaulette and hit the Jotaro pose in the mirror alone
been thinking of what my stand would be lol
Joseph and Jolene are my favorites but I love Jotaro too
I like the idea of "Lavender Haze" (Vildhjarta, not Tswift, but the mashup is funny) as a combo of Hermit Purple and Stone Free
I like Crazy Diamond's healing ability too
IDK I'm on my gymrat shit and I'm gonna learn how to double jump irl and dunk a basketball and it'll be sick
Never mind, I'm not a humangirl. I'm an increasingly-large-elephant-in-the-room-that-everyone-is-incapable-of-seeing it seems. The funny thing is I can't even declare my presence because I have neither the strength to do so nor a name to give others.
My favorite mega so far, I've been slowly learning rust in my free time :)
My gf says my hair can be kind of wavy.
I feel like I should do co-washing or something different to it to better take care of it, but idk what.
CW: dysphoria, family, transphobia, religion
Man, having to performatively boymode for the family (not out to any of them) for Christmas is already wearing me down, and I haven't even left town (they came for my commencement yesterday, and are going back today). Not doing makeup really sucks. I do want to spend time with my siblings, but I may have to figure out an excuse to duck town earlier than I hoped. I am glad that my adult sister isn't coming home until after Christmas: she's tolerable and can even be sweet sometimes 1-on-1 but is a nightmare when we're with the broader family. I know it has to do with her own stresses/anxiety towards our parents, but she ruined Christmas dinner for me last year by going off on transphobic rants so it's hard for me to sympathize.
It also sucks because I've wanted to make the family watch Tokyo Godfathers for years, but it was never accessible on their streaming apps. This year, it's on Amazon Prime but with the climate I think it would cause a fight with my dad (and maybe even mom) who would accuse it of "confusing/corrupting" children. It would be a good way to test the waters and gauge the family's reaction, but I don't want to get in a fight.
Also not looking forward to getting dragged to church (of the "non-denom" evangelical variety). Would be another reason to skedaddle early to at least cut down the number of that experience.
I think my brain is melting, it's not good. I am distressed and exhausted. Not feeling good. I don't really know why or how, but them's the breaks. I am flattened. I just feel like it isn't going well. Is there drugs for this? Why haven't I gone to the weedstore yet?
I'm just fuckin stressed and worn out which I hate. Idk what to do.
lightly nsfw
Also shaving my bits is really fuckin annoying and difficult and I still get nicks everywhere, but the feeling of being smooth is fuckin awesome. I have not arrived at a real solution if there is one; using Nair down there all the time seemed like a bad solution.
Had a rare day of bearable weather today, so I went hiking. I miss doing this more often
