I’m not here to argue or start discourse and if you disagree with something I say, just keep scrolling. A lot of my views have changed since 2018. I was a former discourse blog but now I just want to be a regular transman and live my life and help other men. That being said, feel free to message me if you need help with trans stuff. 11/23/2020

I would like to add, I deeply regret and cringe at a lot of my old posts (2017-2019ish). However, I have so many posts that the amount of time it would take to private all of them is not something that is accessible to me. I private/disable reblogs as they appear on my notes. I apologize for the harm they may have caused. 8/15/2022

I tag ftm triggers as “/ [trigger]” and non-ftm triggers (EDs, self harm, etc) as “tw: [trigger]”. I only tag common triggers. I follow/reply from @/thekidnapvan

I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.

He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense

[status-quo-hater]

Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.

My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.

Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.

He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM

I guess Twitter really needed a middle-aged trans man on the timeline today. Happy to oblige.

So in good news, I’m BACK on testosterone and it’s like I can feel my blood again.

I took it inconsistently since may after losing my insurance last year, and then completely stopped in September. Last year was TERRIBLE. Sex drive was a mess, I felt weak, constantly stressed and worried about if I should skip my dose to stretch it a few more weeks. And then after being off T for half a year, I felt so small. Pubescent. Like I did when I was 14 and scrawny shouldered.

But it’s only week 2 and I already kinda feel the umph that T gives you. I’m feeling that capable feeling that I used to feel, where regardless of my size, I can step in. I went drinking with a few friends, one of which was VERY drunk and a guy tried to insert himself into our group, aiming towards her. She couldn’t even stand. Maybe it was the alcohol, maybe it was the T, maybe it was both, but I immediately got in his space and told him to back up. Dude was at least a foot taller than me. I’ve just been feeling more protective again and less scared to be so than I did last year. And that feels amazing.

And on an nsfw note, I feel (somewhat) horny again! That seems silly but my sex drive has been dead for almost a YEAR. I was honestly sex neutral-repulsed for the better part of the year. And I honestly think it was because being off T, my orgasms were weird and not as good. But they feel normal again. I can’t describe it other than it feeling like a fist versus a loose hand. I think of having sex with people and it doesn’t disgust me but instead, I feel a little interested now.

I’m just happy. Testosterone is back. I’m coming back gang

Dudes healthcare is so fake. My ADHD meds are $940 without insurance. But they gave me a website of "coupons" which straight up looks like a scam website, and I got it today for $60! Just a coupon from a random website and it was $900 cheaper. America, I am confusion!! America explain!!

For all my uninsured judys out there it's for Walgreens only: walgreens.rxsense.com

as a pharmacy technician i can share with you some websites that give you those "coupons" for your meds!

goodrx is the most well known one, but if i'm trying to find the cheapest price for a patient i compare it to scriptcycle, and use whichever is offering the best price. you just type in the medication (PLEASE make sure you're getting the right drug, dosage, and quantity) and your zip code and they will spit out some offers for you

some pharmacies may have their own discount card to compare to as well!

if you are getting a name brand medication, you can also look at the manufacturer's website to see if they offer any evouchers for you to use too

good luck out there 👍

This tiktok about someone’s pre-transition self is so so SO tender and I just want anyone who has transitioned and may be mourning their old self to see this and to know it’s okay. It’s okay to miss that person you once were, it’s okay to wish you had embraced what you had and who you were before transitioning. It doesn’t mean you regret it, and it doesn’t mean you made the wrong decisions.

It’s okay to think about that person, it’s okay to mourn them, and it’s okay to wonder. The person you were before transitioning may have been a trick of the light, but it doesn’t mean they weren’t special while they were here.

Everyone’s experience is different… but if you find yourself feeling this, just know it’s okay. You don’t have to completely block out every aspect and memory of who you were before. It’s okay if you do, but you don’t have to.

happy trans visibility day :)

[existennialmemes]

The crux of the anti trans movement is a war on bodily autonomy. They don't want you to have any agency over what you look like, how you dress, who you date, whether to have kids, etc.

They want total control over you. Not just trans people. Not just queer people. You. Everyone.

Trans people are just a scapegoat. They want total control over everyone's self expression. They want the right to mold you into their perfect little cog in their dehumanizing machine.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility. Our rights are your rights. Our destruction is your destruction.

"I'm not gonna stop- not gonna stop til I get me (T) shot."

[localtransdude]

do you get me? this is the longest gap ive had in medication ever. and its weird. its weird cause i still have my beard. my voice is still deep. i still look like a guy and still pass. but slowly, some of the things i cherished about my body are fading away. the hair on my stomach falls away. my beard is slowly getting thinner. i put on a shirt and noticed my shoulders sloped more than they did. i reached under and felt the muscle had gone away. im still a buck but my antlers are falling away.

the good thing is, antlers grow back. i have an appointment soon to finally get back on t again. its a season, its only temporary.

guys what does it mean if whenever im in a long term relationship with a girl it inevitably ends in a messy break up and for the last year of the relationship i mostly stop sleeping with them and have weird feelings towards guys. like does that just mean im gay or.

cause i feel like i cant be gay. i realized i was trans BECAUSE i had a crush on a girl and i didnt want to be a girl who likes a girl, i felt like a guy who liked a girl, then i realized i was trans. my first love was a girl. ive only had long term relationships with women. because i was first technically a girl who fell in love with a girl, i feel like comphet cant apply. i, as a girl, liking another girl was not what was compulsory. ive also never dated a guy so. what if its the same just opposite?

ive given up on giving myself a label at this point. im not straight. cant say im gay cause last time i did that, i dated a girl for several years and even proposed before we split. bi just doesn't fit me anymore, i cant explain why. im just here, and i know i don't need to find a label.

parried three bait posts in a row

has anyone noticed that after the porn ban of 2018 tumblr was essentially killed from the mainstream and everyone flocked to other social media sites like twitter and meta. then those sites got enshittified to where twitter became Nazi Central and meta sites had an entire meme around getting “zucced” aka mark zuckerberg himself would ban you for saying a no-no word like fuck. and then the mainstream shifted to tiktok where infamous toddlerspeak sentences like “he got unalived by a pew pew” were born because if you once again say a no-no word like kill or gun or any other word that isn’t corporate i mean kid friendly then the algorithm will bury your post into the ground. and somehow we’ve come full circle and tumblr is now the most bearable social media site because although we can’t have female presenting nipples we can at least talk to each other like adults. has anyone noticed that at all or is it just me and the flaming skull
