What doesnt kill you makes you fiercer!

For real tho, glad youre still around kicking! Enjoy the nice weather! Stay beautiful ❤️

Omg thats something ive been thinking about sooo much! At what point does it become inappropriate to be shirtless in public? I mean i dont do it now, mostly cause i feel kinda naked that way. But like, wheres that arbitrary line? 😂

Ps thanks, i love that quote it has helped me through rough times for sure. Its from a song! ‘Fault Line’ August Burns Red, although it is metal so not everyones cup of tea lol

Im soooooo sorry!! That was an extremely ableist analogy to someone i know has an issue with that. Genuinely feel bad and i deeply apologize ❤️❤️

Its awesome! Summers coming so show off season will be heres soon! I personally have a tattoo on my chest im now kinda nervous about with breast growth. I like it, just might get messed up in the process. If i could go back, id get it somewhere different

Ps the tattoo is just words “whisper your grief, scream your sorrow, proclaim your love. Just dont call me your hero” ❤️

Omg how did i only just now notice that tattoo on your thigh!? So cuuute ❤️❤️

I just hate that it looks lighter in the palette but then i use it and it turns freaking black basically lol. Its supposed to be a dark green 😂

But yeah its fun to experiment with different stuff, honestly this is the best ive made it look. Give me like 25 more tries and itll be perfect ❤️❤️

It is cities! Best gamr to play while busy with makeup 😂 Never said i wasnt a nerd, cities isnt even the nerdiest game, that would have to be factorio lol Thanks for the compliment on my makeup! I never think it looks anywhere near good, but its nice to hear people disagree ❤️❤️

I would say that not everyone in transjoy is necessarily subscribed to mtf. I reckon ftm peeps exist as well.

The way ive always thought about it is transjoy is more of a place for everyone trans ftm/mtf, plus its seen by more people and more frequently ends up on All. Whereas mtf i thought of as more of a place specifically dedicated to mtf trans people, more of a safe haven for us, and you can post pictures and ask advice there without necessarily inviting the larger trans community into it. For someone just starting to find themselves, this could be the difference between posting and not posting.

Also also, its worth thinking about what the value of a rule would be vs its drawbacks and what were taking away. I feel personally that an extra view of the same post is not worth trading off for the gatekeeping rule culture that would lead to.

Also also also, this place isnt big, and theres not alot of content. Would we remove posts that violate this rule? Because i would see that as a major drawback. I want more content not less of it. I want people to feel comfortable and not feel like theres a bunch of rules to follow to properly interact with us.

Maybe if we were as big as reddit, but i dont want that either. I love the intimacy of this place. It feels like im actually talking to someone. But if this place ever got that big then i could see this rule being a thing. But i do think to make such a ruling right now would harm the community, not help it

Ps theres apps thatll combine crossposts for you

Edit: removed ableism

Just adding my two cents in here to say that allies can come in all shapes and sizes, and we need all the allies we can get. Im also not above calling out men for their terrible behavior.

The patriarchy exists for everybody and affects every single person, no matter your gender race sexual orientation etc etc. For men this normally takes the toxic masculinity form, where feelings are discouraged, and caring for yourself is for soft men. If you welcome a cis man into a space where its ok to feel what you feel, therapy for example, theres a better chance that that man will develop empathy for others because someone else had empathy for him.

For the time i was pretending, a common theme amongst men is isolation, echo chambers, and labeling fear. Much the same as it is now. They gravitate towards people who think like them, because for men approaching a group of people or just a single person is threatening. And its a position earned by other people in their gender.

Yes men have started 99.99% of wars. Yes men are directly or indirectly responsible for almost everything bad in our world. But kevin and thomas down the street didnt make those things happen.

Dividing is whats destroying us. Being open and inclusive is the name of the game in my mind. People are just people and they make mistakes. If theyre open to learning or being better to others and the world then im willing to let them learn.

Dont further the culture war for them. Be open to humanity as a whole, not just your favorite parts. And punch nazis!

Honestly its wild to see timeline photos and such because like yeah, ive never seen such unbridled joy and happiness and love of life out of anyone else ive ever met on the planet. I think maybe it finally being true to oneself, and maybe faking it feels like a prison.

Now that i say it, i have seen this joy before, on wrongfully convicted people when they get released after 20+ yrs 🤔🤔

You aint missin much 😂

For the skirt ones yeah, the main thing i like is having coverage in between legs ❤️

Feebas trans icon confirmed?

We love rambling here!

If you feel really exposed, especially in really short skirts, you can always wear legging shorts or something like that under it. Or, if youve ever heard of rompers(?), you can get romper style skirts. My shortest skirt is like that.

Rompers are a dress/skirt style where instead of it being fully open it has legholes and extra fabric to make kinda like their own shorts in them. Theyre great for not feeling wide open like that!

Only problem is, if you get a romper dress, you have to take the whole thing off basically to BIO but hey thats life for us girls 😂

Moana was great but did you feel like moana 2 had a real lack of good songs? Thats what i got out of it anyway

Im hearing more and more about this live action remake and im super happy i missed that it was even a thing lol

I really really really want laser, no matter what. Im gonna beg my doctor to make an appt. I hope it isnt too painful for you! I know “go to your happy place” gets thrown around alot but that and focusing on breathing really helps!

Atleast, thats what helped with my tattoo sessions, dunno how that compares to laser 😂

Top 5 disney movies for sure lol

I guess being born before 2000 might influence my list a bit 😂

Racism is rampant in old disney, its unfortunate.

I rewatched pocahontas as an adult with my kid and straight up had to turn it off on a certain song, if you know you know

Personally, i think its beautiful that people can find their own meaning in media but its good to keep in mind that the intent wasnt really there afaik.

I havent seen the new one

IIRC i saw a bit on bad trans representation (but the movie isnt even about that to begin with), stuff like hinting at it and not resolving it properly yada yada

Never agreed with it, just have seen it, probly on parts of the internet that dont matter to be honest lol

The sequel tho, mulan 2, is garbage. I will say
