I was thinking about adding some tongue twisters in to my voice training routine, since they'll have different sets of sounds than what I normally use in conversation. Here's one for each day of the next week.
Monday
To sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock,
In a pestilential prison, with a lifelong lock,
Awaiting the sensation of a short, sharp shock,
From a cheap and chippy chopper on a big black block
Tuesday
Six sick hicks nick six slick bricks with picks and sticks
Wednesday
Fred fed Ted bread and Ted fed Fred bread
Thursday
A blanched black bug bleeds black blood but what color blood does a bland blue bug bleed?
Friday
The great Greek grape growers grow great Greek grapes
Saturday
If you must cross a coarse cross cow across a crowded cow crossing, cross the cross coarse cow across the crowded cow crossing carefully
Sunday
Luke's duck likes lakes. Luke Luck licks lakes. Luke's duck licks lakes. Duck takes licks in lakes Luke Luck likes
If you want something normal sounding to say instead, try the Harvard Sentences. Or read a book to someone!

bottom surgery stuff and horny
I have a couple more days before surgery!!
I finally got to try the clone a dick thing. I had to get more alginate powder. I dunno what was going on, I think I was literally too thick??? Anyway got one semi successful cast of my gock.
spoiler
That's super cool. I hope it work's well for you, both the surgery and the cloned gock. Can the cast be reused? Usually you have to destroy it to remove the finished product (I did some resin products using silicone casts)
Some guy started a conversation with me, stared down at my tits for a solid 2-3 seconds mid-convo just kept talking like no big deal, and then resumed eye contact like that didn't just fucking happen. I'm used to covert glances and quick peeks but this is a new level of audacity for me.
Some people say they get more bisexual after transition. I'm only getting more lesbian.
Same here used to have a preference for men now am totally unattracted to them
:waow-based: honestly don't know if I've heard that before
I have heard some people say they didn't like the idea of being in a relationship with men as a man, but as a woman it was more of a thing. For me that does not matter, I like femininity. Enbies and feminine men also do it for me, though
Going to the store for hair product, then might fuck around and shave my legs??
Also any experiences with IPL devices? I'd like to start addressing the actual growth process but laser/electrolysis are a bit pricey for me atm and epilating would apparently be really bad for my keratosis pilaris
Having smooth legs is really nice.
Sadly the affordable IPL devices aren't very powerful, so if you want permanent reduction you're probably better off saving the money to put towards laser/electrolysis at a later date.
IPL can't do face or genitals, so that's a big limitation you might want to consider.
I consider myself somewhat of a graphical designer because making circuit layouts requires fucking pixel perfect attention to detail. This whole colorful diagram will literally be sprayed like metal paint onto a silicon canvas.
The most difficult part of graphic design is dealing with the programs. That and following the proper process. You can definitely learn it.
I will never be a real artist I should stop being delusional 
asa mitaka is my best friend irl actually
can 100% vouch for the "Pretty yourself up just to laze about the house." activity
feelin real nice 
and i look amazinggg
Was chatting with 3 cis lady friends over alcohol free prosecco at an event, one brought up how worried they were about becoming their mother, another agreed and commiserated, I bided my time, as the conversation slowed I simply added "I tried so hard not to be my father, that I guess I turned into my mother", absolute spit takes from everyone.
>I don't have any breast growth
>wow my chest sure is bouncing a lot going up/down stairs
Breasting boobily, it is our fate.
Next Warsails character I think is a Vlandian (Norman) Mercenary Pirate who is a trans man.
Actually trans Khuzait (Mongol) man who trades by land and sea
the G#mers are sure to have a normal one, that's really cool though 
The game isn't that cool CW misgendering
For my man, I use chose the gender they would have been assigned at birth and used the sliders to make them look very masculine, gave them short hair, a deep voice, have them wear armor and civilian clothes that hides their chest. Other characters still refer to them as their AGAB, but I'm squinting my brain.
awh 
cool character concept still 
So exhausted today. Didn't sleep enough and then ran all over the place.
Looking back at older photos before transitioning, and because of dysphoria I didn't realise this at the time, but I was actually pretty handsome as a guy.
Oh yeah I was absolutely a cute twink, I had NO idea at the time and was in a long term monogamous relationship anyway.
I've been wondering if I actually like how I look or if I'm just my type
Found this nice durable black leather belt at a thrift store (1.5 in wide). I was able to use it to make some bracelets/armlets that I am going to add spikes to, and I almost removed the buckle from the remainder before I realized that it was long enough to make a chunky choker for me as well. For the bracelets, I have some 15 mm spikes on order (I only had 20 when I need 32), and I am trying to find a good design for the choker hardware. I could just use two rows of 25 mm long spikes, but I was also think of adding some d-rings/o-rings and chain/charms.
Looking for some inspo on pinterest, I am thinking of remixing these two designs:
I keep writing and deleting these long fire-and-brimstone comments. Odd considering nobody cares lmao

If you had a million questions and nobody who seemed like a safe person or a reliable person to ask, what would you do?
If you felt like dying and had nobody and nothing to hold you back, challenge those thoughts, affirm something, what would you do?
I've explained why none of that is working right now. Local groups are silent, dating apps are all straight people and polyamorous relationships. I'm just waiting for class to start so I can go back to being terrified of the pretty little 22 year olds.
I seem to want to a type of relationship that hasn't existed since the Industrial Revolution, wherein you are a direct apprentice to someone regarded as having some expertise. I am a novice at femininity and would love to, like, be under someone's wing. Like, I would be such a good student. My God.
Times like this make me want to just throw on a dress and bright red lipstick and go full femme and get shitfaced at a dive bar. Just like, see what happens. Could it be worse? Would even that matter to anyone?
Ending this comment by affirming to myself that I can not expect anyone to reply, or help me, or care. This has been done to manage my own sanity

There's a reason why master-disciple relationships are so common in fantasy media.

Well you definitely don't need to be terrified of the other students; they're just people too.
Look here's the thing about cis people: masculinity and femininity aren't any more natural for them than for us - they just get taught that stuff from an earlier age. You'll catch up fine.
no death
What does being a good student (of femininity) mean to you?
When you go to the meetups you do also have to open up and talk to people, hopefully now that the winter holidays are over it'll start picking up again. Especially for university clubs, which you should absolutely join. But it does mean you have to talk to the 22 year old youre terrified of. Also, its trite and not necessarily actionable because of cost but you should be seeking therapy if you can for social anxiety. You shouldn't be terrified of speaking to anyone casually let alone 22 year olds even if they're pretty.
For that situation I would absolutely be working on my own mental health first and while getting friends ans a support network would help its not the whole answer. Feeling that way isnt something that can be "cured" by socialization alone.
Im so sorry youre hurting so much, it must be hard to balance school, looking for meetups and attending them, work too, and so on. Its a lot to take on!
I'm covered in so many scars you'd think I worked somewhere dangerous or I'm like an antifa supersolider but no, I'm just a clumsy girl with inattentive ADHD
The joy of being seen as a 30-something stubbly male with a career to navigate when you'd rather be spoken to like you're a 12 year old girl. Or be treated like someone's dog
