~Intro post~

Hello 👋 you can call me Crow or Marcus/Marc, I use he/they and I am boyflux and bi :D

I will probably post a lot of shitty writing stuff (emo poems, bad metaphors e.t.c) about stuff and blog things I guess

[f4ntasy-n3rd]

Happy pride people!

So because my brother has a snake, and because I am pagan it has led to this:

Hey, so not the usual content I post but I need some help 😭 I had a question for those that understand binding with trans tape more than I do. So I recently (as in yesterday) started trying it because of the hot weather and binders just became a nightmare, but I can't seem to get my chest flatter, it just seems like support rather than binding? Any tips? (Pictures under, for reference I have quite a small ribcage and D cups)

I'm by no means great at taping, but I think I have enough understanding and experience to semi-effectively explain it, not to mention all my time using kt tape for disability.

Trans tape for anyone who doesn't know is Essentially the same thing as Kinesiology Tape (KT tape), they can be used the same way from my understanding. I am allergic to most adhesives, so I tend to use copper infused KT tape to minimize my reaction to it and this could help someone else.

KT tape usually comes in one inch thick strips whereas actual trans tape typically is four inches thick. Bigger breasts may be easier to bind using thicker strips, I feel it really depends per Body and Preference. KT tape comes in longer strips and works amazingly for us when cut in half, remember to Round the corners of any tape you cut, we find it keeps the tape from peeling up.

We shower before we tape, having clean skin can make your tape last far longer and reduces your chances of reacting to the adhesive. Please always remember nipple covers,,, bandaids, cotton balls (our preference), anything you can think off to protect your nipples from the adhesive.

Moving on to actually taping, the tape can be stretched out really far, but the more you stretch it before putting on your skin the less sticky it is. The adhesive will be strongest on your skin where you haven't stretched it, having a section of tape unstretched is used as an anchor.

I start by anchoring the tape just over my sternum, using the heat of my hand to activate the adhesive faster. I stretch the tape slowly as I smooth it over my skin, the direction you pull your tape will "smooth" the breast in that direction. I use two pieces of kt tape in total, two halves for each breast, stretching the tape towards my sides. Sometimes I'll use a third piece on each side to pull the tissue upwards, giving it a sort of pec look.

Admittedly its a lot of trial and error, and tape will almost never be as flat as a binder but thats just because of the differences in the two. Always decide what works best for you and always practice safety.

Sorry if this isn't the most helpful 😭

Thanks so much!

It's so god damn hot and I'm just sitting here writing doomed yaoi because I have nothing more to do in this HEAT 😭

UPDATE: I've given up on trans tape. Im autistic as my mutals will know and the sensory issues that it brought were just too much. No matter what I couldn't safely bind as well as I can with a binder and I can't quickly get it off my body when I'm overwhelmed. If you are someone with tits who doesn't want them and autistic/ADHD, I do not recommend especially if you have a large rib to chest ratio

Re-watching the lord of the rings films because they're awesome and just reached about halfway through Two Towers... I always adored Gollum when I was a little closeted transmasc egg and I just realised why. About halfway through the film the conversation between Gollum and smeagol reeeeaaaallllyyyy felt like a lot of conversations I had with myself when I was depressed and battling that part of myself...

LOTR for the win

Y'know, speaking before the English lit 2 exam, if the poem is COTLB I'm gonna be really annoyed because my stupid ADHD brain will read "rode the 600" and just start singing

Six hundred lives at stake

It just one life to take!

And I am never going to get that essay written

Best conversation I have ever overheard outside my house

Drunk guy 1: HEY JAMES!

drunk guy 2: WOT?!

Drunk guy 1: I wanna FUCK YOOOUUU!

Drunk guy 2: As long as it's not gay I'll fuck you!

Beautiful, shakespeare couldn't have written better

That one poem you hated for the whole course and finally choose to revise 5 days before the exam and you become low-key obsessed with>>>>

yknow what i love? so my best friend in the world is a writer (@f4ntasy-n3rd, go check them out), and he writes very serious trans allegories with robots and dragons and shit its great. and I write silly omegaverse dystopian drabbles with the worlds worst grammer. as you can see, gentle reader, we have very different tastes. but yknow what? he does not look down on me. I don't think he's elitist for not wanting to write the same stuff as mine. i still beta read his works, he gets all excited when I walk into the room as him and "GUESS WHAT I WROTE NOW, CROW!", even though he does not want to see my dystopian mpreg fic i wrote a 3am. This is having friends with different tastes

[f4ntasy-n3rd]

It's also great having a friend who knows you're sex-repulsed ace and then tells you each chapter of their fic to avoid :D

Tw: dark thoughts

Isn't it scary

Isn't it scary

When the world feels so heavy?

When good can never be perfect?

When a life feels like a chore?

Isn't it scary

When you sit all alone?

When you can't seem to breathe?

When your only escape is a phone?

Isnt it scary

When the light seems so fake?

And the dark you have rejected...

Starts to feel like...

Home?

Change

You hold it in your pocket

As time rolls on and on.

Each date and number carved

Like history in song.

The first coins you ever had

Forgotten at the bottom,

Remembered in wistful memories

Like the falling of a blossom.

Next came notes with faces

That grin across the shine.

These are what you remember most

And you call these ones “mine”.

The notes they change in hue

In colour and in tone

Ones you once welcomes happily

That now sit a dagger in your phone.

You try to hold on tight

To that all-so familiar note

But you eventually see the hurt

And release them. Watch them float.

Then replace them with a card.

It is yours, your own, and yours.

It cannot hurt or threaten you

There is no fear in those paws.

But then you drop your wallet

And all the change spills out;

The new stuff and the old

How quickly it amounts.

And you see that old coin again,

The same but now so changed.

You only just recognise it

Since it’s become estranged.

You pick it up and dust it off

It’s so old now it’s no use.

But you smile as you see it.

It was your first

Your heart

Your youth.

And as the pressure of the now

Slowly crushes you inside

The memory of the coin,

That old and changed design,

Gives a respite

Gives a hope

Gives a memory

And a song betraying…

That maybe it’ll all be alright.
