As a child, I thought Neptune was the coolest fucking planet ever. It was blue. A gas giant. Didn't have a ridiculous "your anus" type name, and had some crazy facts such as having winds almost twice the speed of sound, an atmosphere full of ice and frozen methane. I'll leave the rest to the wiki article

Today, I still think Neptune is the coolest celestial body in the solar system. Young sodi had the right idea.

What's your favorite celestial body? Can be outside the solar system. No rules on this. Except for choosing Sagittarius A. Fuck Sagittarius A.

Bonus content: sonorification of emitted frequencies of planets and bodies. In other words, these are what rhe frequencies of various space things would sound like.

Earth's frequencies sounding like birds (space) is most terrifying thing ever and I hate it. There should not be birds in space.

Going to someone's bio to block them and seeing pronouns is the worst. Like damn you might be at least kind of cool on trans people. Not changing my mind though.

Yusuke's goodbye:...As of now, my canvas is still blank.

It's not for lack of inspiration. There's so much I want to express - I can barely contain my passion. But my heart has not led me astray yet. I'll paint as it guides me.

Even should I scar my work with doubt, hesitation, chaos... certainly, that's a beauty all its own.

Your life is no worse for its own scars. Your truest beauty lies in them, and I hope you tell me their stories someday.

Why do I feel so ugly and weird

[โ€“] XiaCobolt@hexbear.net 8 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Because you're probably hot and cool

I am, but like i did my hair, I shaved why do i suddenly look like that one turkish salesman in selfies??? I looked pretty in the mirror

I went surfing for the first time since starting HRT and I was expecting it to be much harder with the strength loss but it actually wasn't that bad? It helps that I'm with an instructor who's telling me what waves to go for and when but I can definitely still get out past the sets, paddle into waves, and ride them. And now I look 100x hotter in my wetsuit with some curves.

Testosterone definitely has it's effects on muscle mass, but I think much of the "HRT makes your muscles" melt has historically come from doctors giving trans women menopausal lady doses of hormones. I've fallen off rowing lately but I was able to still build some decent muscle when I was on (and still am) on really good estrogen levels.

[โ€“] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 1 points 1 minute ago

Every day I am thankful for DIY and not giving a fuck what doctors think my levels should be. I'm definitely more eepy but I don't really feel any weaker almost two years later.

Nice. I've been pleasantly surprised by not running into any problems with no longer being able to do things I've used to be able to do.

So since my request for random fun facts in the last thread turned out great, here's another random fun fact to kick off this week:

The Kindlifresserbrunnen (Fountain of the Eater of Little Children) is an almost 500 year old statue in Bern, Switzerland that depicts a man pulling young children out of a bag and eating them alive. It was created by Swiss sculptor Hans Gieng, but no one seems to know what the intended message was supposed to be. There are many theories, but I think maybe Mr. Gieng just thought it was hilarious and was basically doing an elaborate 16th century shitpost.

If anyone else has a fun fact to share, please do!

People will let you do anything if your proposal is modest enough.

My fun fact: the only place on Earth where Venus flytraps grow is a small swampy area along the coast of North Carolina, USA. Like within about a ninety mile radius or so. Every time they're shown in documentaries they never mention it and always intimate that they're from somewhere more exotic and interesting. Also they are nearly impossible to grow from seed outside of their natural environment, so like 99% of the ones for sale anywhere on Earth have been illegally poached.

[โ€“] Eco@hexbear.net 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

they're actually really easy to propagate from cuttings - the rampant poaching really confuses me honestly because of that fact. also they don't sell for very much money either

[โ€“] scrungus@hexbear.net 5 points 2 hours ago

Oh no way, I had no idea. I should really fact check my decades old trivia I learned in middle school picard

[โ€“] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 7 points 6 hours ago

I think the message is fairly clear. It's about a man eating children because children are tasty. What, the message has to be profound in some way and expound on the "human condition"? Why? It doesn't have to!

I'm anticipating the long awaited breakthrough in my game cultivation realm as if I'm actually ascending irl

Barely over a week on HRT and my skin is starting to feel softer? Smoother? It definitely feels different than it used to.

It's also even harder to suppress my emotions, which is great when I feel safe enough to cry it out but has me feeling like a cornered animal in all other contexts. One of these days I'm going to snap and say something super out of pocket at work and get fired.

[โ€“] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 8 points 7 hours ago

Yeah all of that is what I also experienced. Congratulations on adding to the dataset! You are making great contributions to transcience
