moments after finishing inking this i realised it's "I always know A FEW showy tricks" isn't it. well. not fixing it.

[toadlett]

I will allow myself a reblog because. turns out I was correct. Flem you work for me now.

[strawberry-crocodile]

personally i believe there are two things you need to be keenly aware of to write an actually good m/f romance. obviously a good writer isnt going to just plainly state them but u should be able to tell.

1. how does the patriarchy and coercion for women to be presentable and marry and be moms and serve men affect each character and this relationship?

2. WHAT DOES THE WOMAN LIKE ABOUT THE MAN

[strawberry-crocodile]

just in general i think straight men... struggle to imagine what exactly the woman is getting out of a relationship. so they gesture at "he's nice" and "he saves her" and "he's dorky" I DONT CARE IF YOURE STRAIGHT, IMAGINE SOMEONE YOU WANT TO SPEND YOUR LIFE WITH!!! also read stories written by women.

When you meet Edward Elric he gives off the impression that he's the short-tempered hot-headed "violence is the answer to all life's questions" kind of protagonist, and it's in fact incredible character craft that he's actually the character who ends the series with a negative-3 kill count.

[phantomrose96]

people killed: 0

direct orders of "you really really need to kill this guy" ignored: 1

ongoing murders being committed by Ed's own friends/colleagues that Ed got in the way of to specifically stop that murder from happening: 2

[phantomrose96]

God's worst soldier Edward Elric. Showed up as the youngest member of the Amestrian army, took millions of dollars from them, never followed a single order, helped dismantle their fascist regime, left with a lower kill count than he arrived with, then fucked off to go be a house-husband. Character of all time.

[aka-blaa]

You know, when you said "negative-3 kill count," I, who haven't seen the anime, thought, "He resurrected 3 people?????" But I'm seeing here on the wiki that apparently resurrection in this anime is a terrible idea.

yellow request from twt..my favorite flowerr

[tlirsgender]

Maybe one day we can stop moralizing the concept of privilege & everyone will get normaler about being told they have relative privilege over other people. Like literally everyone everywhere in some way. It's fine. Being aware of it can't hurt you

[tlirsgender]

There's such an endless chorus of outraged "but what if I'm poor? What if I'm autistic" and it's like. Ok. You're not getting this at all let's just start over

[cyprozombiegirl]

tumblr staff doesn’t want you to know this, but a great way to treat small amounts of granulation tissue to prevent it from becoming hypergranulation inside the canal of your neovagina is to make a hypersaline solution (more in tense version of regular saline) and soak a tampon in it, and then insert that tampon into your vaginal canal

[cyprozombiegirl]

now I’m sure if you are dealing with granulation tissue during early recovery from bottom surgery you’re probably thinking gosh fuck I’m a trans girl i’ve never had to put a tampon in in my life how do I do this…and I’d love to show you but

[cyprozombiegirl]

ITS THE POST THAT GOT ME BLURRED HIII

[pomegranatecellar]

love how much tumblr hates women lol

anyways, if you're a trans girl and have never used a tampon before, here's some tips

- you shouldn't be able to really feel it, if you do it isn't tilted correctly or it's not far enough in. in my experience the easiest way to put in a tampon is squatting and tilting slightly forward but experiment and see what feels best for you

- it's completely normal to take a few attempts to get in correctly , that's what the string is for (easy removal)

- if you lose the string you can just Go Up There and pull it out, it's just more messy

- even though you don't bleed, do not leave it in for long. i'm serious. you can still get toxic shock syndrome, it's not pretty and you will need serious medical intervention. change tampons at least every 8 hours

- probably common sense but ill add anyways, tampons expand when absorbing fluid! do not worry if it's a little struggle to get out that's normal (but if you're having a REALLY hard time that is not, probably size down your tampon)

hope any of this helps!

From the replies:

What is granulation tissue?

[Cyprozombiegirl] Granulation tissue is a normal tissue that forms underneath where the skin will form, its bright red and shiny (and painful to the touch). Unfortunately when the injured/cut area is consistently wet often too much of this tissue forms and prevents skin from growing over it. When this happens it’s called hypergranulation and needs to be chemically burned away. If you’ve got some but not a lot though, not enough to technically be hypergranulation but on the way there, you can use hypersaline to treat it.

It can’t stop anything once you’ve fully got hypergranulation, but if it’s only granulation it seems to help a lot. I found out about this from a friend whose special interest is bottom surgery

To Make The HyperSaline Solution

[Cyprozombiegirl] mix 2 teaspoons of table salt with 1 cup of warm water (which you’ve boiled for at least 20min) in a clean container until the salt dissolves. soak tampon in it. Insert tampon (this can be tricky because it will rapidly expand, so I suggest getting one for light flow).

[Dilsdoes] hi! just a note: make sure the salt youre using is non iodized! generally for saline solutions used internally like this you want to avoid iodized salt. it tends to irritate mucous membranes

Further information on Tampons can be searched online or on the Tampon box.

A diagram for how to apply a tampon in a (neo)vagina.

1. Tampon inside a tampon applicator, with tampon chord (a string used to pull the tampon out).

2. Hand with the tampon itself pointed towards the palm and body. Index finger over the Tampon applicator plunger.

3. Spreading vaginal opening with the other hand, and placing the tampon with tampon applicator towards the vaginal entrance. Legs spread apart.

4. Push tampon applicator plunger with index finger, with tampon inside, to push it further inside.

5. Take out tampon applicator. The tampon should be secured inside the vaginal canal, with tampon chord hanging outside of the vagina.

End ID.

Ideally you wanne boil the water when the salt is already in, because food grade salt might not be entirely sterile (especially cause it's usually in your not sterile cupboard for quite a while). Also the way it's indicated in the diagram it kinda looks like the tampon is not inserted far enough, it's very uncomfortable if you don't get it in far enough. I don't have experience with applicators, but if you use your index finger (depending on your exact anatomy) you are gonne have to get pretty much your entire finger in there. If you use an applicator, compare to your index finger to get an idea.
