I hate when I look for medical reasons behind things and advice for it basically boils down to "just don't be stressed! :D"

I'd like to know why my ears are shedding scally flakes and then weaping clear fluid. Idk, here's some cream, there's no permanent fix, it flairs up with stress :D

Why the fuck do I smell like I just ran a marathon 10 minutes after showering? You're stressed so your sweating the smelly sweat, well I would feel 5-10% less stressed if I wasn't paranoid about coworkers smelling me and thinking I dont shower when I shower every hecking day!

Why do I feel dizzy and awful mid-day? Just stressed, bestie, just don't be stressed :D

I WOULD FEEL LESS STRESSED IF I HAD A FUDGIBG CAUSE AND COULD FUX THIS SHIT

The soluitions to all my problems is to work 30 hours a week not 40 but I need money in order to live so Idk

Tumblr is the gender/body is goofy website so ima post this and if you have thoughts please share.

Afab girl here

There's a weird kind of dysphoria where I feel overly masculine than when I'm wearing something frilly or flowy or "girlish" and I feel more feminine when I wear a suit or straight cut pants or "boyish" clothing.

I'll be like "ooo could be nice to try on that pretty dress" and I try it on and feel like a guy wearing a dress in the bad way not in the good way.

I see so many trans women that seem comfortable in those styles, and they look like women, but when I wear them I feel, not good.

I don't think I'm trans, I don't want to be perceived as a man, I don't want short hair.

I think I genuinely look more like a guy when I wear a floral print dress than I do in T-shirt and leggings.

Idk man. They look so pretty and I feel like shit wearing them

Maybe it's the internal version of "A man looks best in something slightly feminine and a woman looks best in something slightly masculine"?

I know non-binary exists but I don't really get any extra seratonin from being called they/them and most of the enbys I know have short hair and I like my rapunzel hair.

I want to be a woman, I am technically by birth a woman, I don't feel like a woman.

[bubbleslot]

Vent, I just need to scream into a blank void and that's what tumblr is for.

Why the fuck do I only look pretty durring a mental breakdown???

The prettiest only cheeks blush to the face ratger than the entire face being red, the lips a perfect soft pink rather than the garish red maroon of every day, no fucking pimples, eyes shiny, wtf

It'd be nice if it didn't feel like someone cauterized my domanine receptors with a hot poker

I look gorgous and am unable to process joy about anything.

The way hobbies literally rewrite your Brian chemistry is funny. I saw a video of a skatepark I've never been to and my first reaction was "oooohhhhhh FUCK YEA polished concrete!!!!" Because polished concrete is the BEST fucking surface to skate on with quad skates and the bottom of the ramps were properly curved to there's no Ka-Chunk of your shelves going over a sharp angle at high speeds.

It looked so fucking smooth and pretty..

Polished concrete my beloved

Middle-aged magical girl.

She's been defending the Earth since the early 90s and she's very tired.

[charlesoberonn]

My name is Tominaga Haruka. I was chosen by a magical talking animal, and for the last 29 years I've been Earth's one and only... Wonder-Sparkle Princess.

[gropeable-boychest]

she's been fighting the same villains for three decades and they are also tired of it. Most of them aren't giving it their all. Half of them are in a groupchat they've added her to where they schedule their evil plans to make sure they don't interfere with each other, or more importantly, with *her* Xalkrax the space demon from outer space decided to attack the city when she was taking her vacation time once, and now he's dead, because even the power of friendship and redemption can't save you if you interrupt her rare vacations

[charlesoberonn]

Demon Queen Eluria: Gonna fill the city people's hearts with hatred on thursday to cause mayhem and discord.

Wonder-Sparkle Princess: Can't, got a PTA meeting.

Demon Queen Eluria: Friday?

Wonder-Sparkle Princess: A birthday party.

Demon Queen Eluria: Damn. How about I fill just the mayor's heart with hatred then?

Wonder-Sparkle Princess: That'd be redundant, lol. Maybe fill his heart with a desire to fix the fucking potholes?!

Demon Queen Eluria: LMFAO love you, bitch. Stay strong.

Wonder-Sparkle Princess: You too, gurl. How's the husband? Still dead?

Demon Queen Eluria: Yep. Thanks for that, btw.

Wonder-Sparkle Princess: Don't mess with my time off :p

[charlesoberonn]

Why are people tagging this '#wonder sparkle princess' like that's a thing and not a name I made up exclusively for this post?

[ardinwriter]

Congratulations on inventing a new tumblr deity!!

[charlesoberonn]

She isn't 29 years old. She's been a magical girl for 29 years. If she started at 14 (typical magical girl protagonist age) then she'd be 43.

Welp hello tumblr, you shall be witness to the fall of Icarus as I a creature who has very little knowlege of how to pattern a bodice and even less of how sleeves work will attempt to make a transforming dress from Aikatsu stars going from Koharu's uniform to her message of rainbow dress, her ONLY specialty unique dress.

My girl deserves better.

Anyway progress pics so far!!

Gods of crafting please give me strength

Omg I finally patterned out the uniform skirt, I'm using a pleated circle skirt pattern so it can flair out nicely and look good over a petticoat

Skirts are so much easier than bodices, it took me 3 months to get the bodice patterned and 3 days to get the skirt patterned.

Also the sheer amount of fabric needed for a pleated circle skirt is insane, its 3 times the fabric needed for a regular half circle skirt

Biblically accurate amount of fabric needed for a SINGULAR pleated circle skirt (with a sharpie in the middle for size reference)

[bubbleslot]

GAZE UPON IT

IT HAS BEEN PLEATED

[bubbleslot]

Turns out doing too much for one aspect of a project can get you burnt out on it. I dont wanna touch fabric. Ahhhhhhh

SO

I bought the wig needed, also I have a pretty bug head and most head mannequins I've seen are to small so I made the most cursed head mould possible using tin foil, duct tape, and those heat mold plastic bead thingies

(Same wig but the color looks different depending on lighting) (yes that is a peach juice bottle it's duct taped to i did mention it was cursed)

But also I used a crimper to straighten it and I can't do the controlled light curve of the bangs with it so Idk I might have to borrow an actual hair straightener from friends or something

[bubbleslot]

ABORT ABORT HAIRSPRAY IS NOT A GOOD REPLACEMENT FOR FLAT IRONING A BOB

(ToT)

Washed her out and gave her a trim, I think I need to cut it a lot shorter than just thought, also I don't have hairspray privileges anymore for this wig, except maybe for part of the bangs and that's a hard maybe

[bubbleslot]

I dont owe the world attractiveness

I can put on makeup because I wanna

I can avoid makeup because I wanna

I can shave my legs and arms because it's fun

I can go to the pool with visible body hair and unshared armpits

I deserve baseline human respect no matter my size or weight or hight.

I deserve baseline respect whether I'm attractive or ugly

I am a person and that fact is far more important than any detail of my appearance

I dont need to see myself as attractive.

I'm allowed to exist with no positive or negative connotations

[bubbleslot]

The lengths I will go to avoid leaving the house for the maddening search of the exact tool I need.

It's not that they don't sell the tools I need, the sell them, they're just wrong for what I'm doing.

They sell head mannequins for styling wigs, the mannequin heads they sell are so different in size from my head that when i style it on the mannequin it looks fucked up and goofy on my head, NOT WHAT I WANT

They sell curlers for hair that could be used on a wig, They're way to fucking small and the curls are now wrong NOT WHAT I WANT

I live in a world where I can picture the exact tool/thing I need AND THEN BE SOLD 3 DIFFERENT VARIENTS OF IT AND NONE OF THEM WORK LIKE HOW I NEED IT TO

This also applies to attempting to buy basic ass shoes as a person with wide stubby feet. Size 7w US should not be hard to shop for but god forbid someone has a childhood where they ran barefoot

I just want tools that fucking work and I rarely ever find any so my first response to "I need x" is "ok let's make x I guess"

AND EVEN THOUGH IM A DUMBASS WHO DOESNT KNIW HOW TO MAKE IT IT ENDS UP WORKING BETTER THAN THE BOUGHT VERSION

My dumbass should not be better at designing tools THAN THE PEOPLE WHO'S JOB IT IS TO MAKE TOOLS

Anyone else remember having their parents try to teach you Emotional Regulation Skills way too early and only understanding in hindsight how fucking nuts it is to try to do what they were doing to a kid. Like having your mom tell you "you're the only one who's in charge of your feelings :) nobody can MAKE you feel bad unless you let them :)" but at the same time you'd get scolded for making someone else feel bad by being rude or acting out, so in practice you're both in charge of your own feelings but also everyone else's feelings, and that didn't feel fair, but you had no idea how to put that into words because you're five.

[thinkstooohard]

it only occurred to me years later, but if "you control your emotions" and "you choose how to feel" then every time my parents got angry at me it was because they chose to be angry, which doesnt seem like the kind of thing you want to be teaching your kid
