Hello everyone~ The megathread is very eepy this week so I am being very quiet and not posting a whole essay as that might disturb their rest. The megathread does a lot of work for us after all, so they deserve to rest a little. Our regularly scheduled effortposts will continue next week.

Nonetheless, I hope that you (yes you!) are doing well, whenever it may be that you happen to be dropping in. I wish you all the best~

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.

Is the 28 days expiration date for vials true? Do any gray market sites have the testosteone pellets?

Samura seiichi from kagurabachi is the first fictional crush I've had in years and it's for a married man with children and war trauma.

Well, his wife is dead so I have a chance ...

time to share a fun passage from my Inanna: Queen of Heaven and Earth book (stories and hymns from sumer).

NSFW(?)

Inanna placed the shugurra, the crown of the steppe, on her head

She went to the sheepfold, to the shepherd

She leaned back against the apple tree

When she leaned against the apple tree, her vulva was wondrous to behold.

Rejoicing at her wondrous vulva, the young woman Inanna applauded herself

(textbook gender euphoria)

(edit: fixed the formatting)

I remember playing tamogachi life and making and shipping my irl friends together. Pretty much all my friends are lgbtq+ so I did have some trouble with a few this still being a nintendo game, the solution was to trans a couple of them to make it work. I haven't talked to some of them in years though so I'm wondering how close I got thinking-about-it nowadays with mods or romhacks no longer an issue.

Sweet potato noodles with a red chili + sichuan pepper seasoning and mixed with boiled corn + carrots + peas is pretty fucking goated. Perfect thing for when you need fast flavour than kicks you in your ovaries then kidnaps your family and demands ransom.

The subreddit for making memes themed around Chinese cultivation novels has, in the span of 2 days, turned into a sub for sharing gay cartoon Chinese porn (that is still themed around cultivation).

This is the most fascinating phenomena I have seen. I mean, I have seen this happen before, but the sheer speed is ... incredible.

That post about the boymodding trans girl cultivator has seemingly caused an irreversible reaction.

"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law" rings hollow in this time of Samsara and sunyatta. Or maybe its still true, but not like hedonistic or nihilistic. The answer is still, do what you will. None of it matters as the wheel turns

feeling awful continues (0 replies)

I'm sad because I don't think I'll have a coming out anniversary, or anniversaries of those things. And I feel like all these firsts are just gonna happen and nobody knows me. I don't know how much any of it matters if there isn't anyone to share it with. I'm alone no matter what. I can go to every fucking meet-up but that doesn't mean I know what the fuck to say.

To me, the conversation is the messy stuff, the not feeling like a guy, the how to appear more feminine so people don't subconsciously treat you as male before you even notice them, the how do you walk and what do you wear and how do you shop and what do you do in your free time. To me the conversation isn't just one reply or one sentence one time, it's reciprocal and back and forth, we message , we talk.

And like, I don't want the small talk, the one-offs, etc, until the Deep Down is addressed. To me a sign that someone cares and is invested is that they want to talk about the messy stuff, they aren't scared. There's care, like, the act of helping, and I could use that.

I'm just floored at how different my mindset is from everyone else's. It's hard not to start to see this as an indictment on my own social skills. You're probably all normal and I'm the weirdo. Maybe I should start a blog or something where I can just not have comments, so that I'm not disappointed when nobody says anything.

If people are sick of me, please just tell me to leave

Anniversaries can matter even if they're just for yourself and by yourself. I should know.

And like, I don’t want the small talk, the one-offs, etc, until the Deep Down is addressed. To me a sign that someone cares and is invested is that they want to talk about the messy stuff, they aren’t scared. There’s care, like, the act of helping, and I could use that.

How is somebody supposed to care if there is no connection made yet?

Close friendships never appear out of thin air, they're cultivated over time. How would someone even be able to offer you a real ear to listen to your problems if they don't know you yet? I don't even mean in the sense of why would they, I mean in the sense of how could they genuinely understand you if they don't know anything about you yet? Would you be able to understand someone who you met that very same day? The way people build to that understanding is through the small talk and the one-offs and the small conversations about hobbies and shared interests or experiences.

To use Aristotelian language here, a friendship of good is cultivated first through a friendship of convenience or a friendship of pleasure; "they also need time, to grow accustomed to each other; for, as the proverb says, they cannot know each other before they have shared their salt as often as it says, and they cannot accept each other or be friends until each appears lovable to the other and gains the other's confidence. [...] For though the wish for friendship comes quickly, friendship does not"

By insisting so much on addressing your Deep Down first and foremost you're closing yourself off from anyone who might actually make a connection with you, who might actually be able to help you with the Deep Down.
