I finally got around to seeing "I Saw The TV Glow", and it definitely lived up to the hype.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

envy, dysphoriaOne neighbor woman who lives in the same building as me really stresses me out. The hair, the outfits, the walk... I'm pretty sure we were in school together, but I didn't see her really in the spring, so I thought she graduated and moved.

Anyway my assumption is "oh she's already heard stuff about me" because of how small the school is. Like, I know she's friends with the girlfriend of a classmate of mine. I'm like "she's heard about me, she has an opinion about me".

But she's really pretty and she always has friends hanging out and wears great outfits. I feel myself unable to speak. And like, what would I say, besides "may I have girl lessons please thank you"

Literally looking up "chosen family" because I don't understand how one forms/how to be part of such a thing

Idk, hope this gets better, because I'm close to saying some dumb shit

[โ€“] SterlingPooper@hexbear.net 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

mixed feelings going into prideI don't know what to expect. Any time I hope, like maybe a new connection will happen, that doesn't really work out. I feel like a fed just walking around quietly by myself

I'm hoping to collect goodies, I guess. Idk.

Is it just me or has the megathread gotten kinda quiet since I've been back

SpoilerOne time someone posted about platonic snuggling with their girlie friends and tbh that's maybe the most dysphoric I ever felt

Imagine having a friend who wants to be that close to you. Imagine being physically close to another human being.

I didn't realize that friends are, like, affectionate, or that they can be. I feel like a broken baby, learning basic things as an adult.

I just want to be like the pretty people who have that effortless confidence. Who seem to make friends wherever they go, who seem to always be mid-conversation.

If I had girl friends, I would want to go shopping. I would want to learn about being a woman, about femininity. About being pretty and doing makeup and how to learn what shirts fit good. About being flirty and charming.

Apparently expressing this makes me intense. I don't think it's intense to think these things. If you do, I'd appreciate if you explained why. Because I genuinely don't see it, I'm just speaking my mind.

My body frame sucks for wearing cute clothes, and yet I wear them anyway (at home).

I try to buy jewelry, but all the women's rings are the wrong sizes. There was a pretty cute butterfly ring that I wanted. But it didn't fit, and searching for sizes was getting awkward as I stood there with a friend (male) who doesn't know about me being trans in a store completely where only women were buying stuff from catgirl-cry.

CW just in case: weight stuffI know I should be more accepting of my body, but I really do want to loose weight ๐Ÿ™ƒ. Ain't nothing I can do about it cept getting off my bum and exercising. Ain't gonna ruin my health by going on some crazy diet. I don't stick to that shit anyways. Pointless to try.

Some guy hit on me in the grocery store today and it was so off-putting that I'm reconsidering my sexuality

Me: I could be bi

Man: Hello

Me: Save me Sappho

gender cw : dysphoria, discussion of essentialism

spoilerI don't have a gender , I used to identify as transmasc but don't relate to masculinity so I think agender is right. Don't like being perceived as or being a woman but wouldn't like being a man either. I hate the 'born this way' narrative, we shouldn't have to justify why we're trans. I feel a lot of research about gender being "hardwired" just reinforces bio essentialism under the name of 'acceptance' , it's always agab language and treating sex as an absolute truth. i didn't fully realize everything until recently , like I said earlier trans people don't need justification for why they exist.

I should have gotten on the dating apps way sooner, I'm having such a fun time flirting with trans and queer cuties all day. Currently talking to a trans woman who's nearly twice my age because my higher power was smiling on me while I was swiping that day.

Lots of libs though. So many libs.

I'm reading Trans/Rad/Fem by Talia Bhatt and it's so good, but also how do you go about your day normally after realising by being a trans woman you're a revolutionary in a war against the heterosexual occupation of gender that has lasted over five thousand years?

random trans core memory that just popped back into my head out of nowhere

i remember laying in bed very late one night in my late teens having just admit to myself that i actually did like the idea of wearing women's clothing and i was freaked the fuck out because i had zero idea what on earth to do with this information other than to sleep on it because there was nothing i could do about it at 11 pm so I decided to sleep on it. I then woke up and promptly forgot about it for years and continued to be cis for some reason

Wish I knew how to stop my brain from shutting down. I get so overwhelmed by envy and attraction and then I literally can't speak

Being around feminine people is a source of dysphoria. Like, I don't know how to handle the emotions. I just want to ask how they do that, all the time. I feel male-gazey, I feel gross.
