Hello person having transgender thoughts but convinced they aren't trans because they don't have the requisite amount of dysphoria they think they need

Hi I transitioned without even thinking I had dysphoria. Like later in hindsight I can go "oh that's probably what it was" but for the first year of my transition I was straight up like "I like being a guy but I like being a girl WAY more" and you can do that!! There is no prerequisite amount of suffering needed to make yourself happier.

Gonna include these tags cuz they're good

Totally normal for a legitimate for-profit company to refuse to reclaim or stop running their products even after they're no longer being paid to do so. I'm sure it's very normal to just keep running your service for free when your contract's been terminated. Spending money to continue running cameras that supposedly no one is looking at is definitely not an indicator they are just run by the federal government to spy on everyone and only a wacko conspiracy theorist would think so.

“why did you write this man as a service top” because i have eyes. and common sense. And also god spoke to me

[wordfather]

they're a problematic character TO YOU. they're problematic to me as well but I'm being weird and horny about it so it's different

[greelin]

“but he did [this horrific thing]” i am neither his keeper nor happy with every single decision he makes. Also he is not real

Is there a reason chunshan is never translated? I assumed it was chun as in spring, and spring mountain was a joke because it's porn. spring is used as a metaphor for arousal in cn lit. so people are missing a real tongue-in-cheek joke by keeping it Resentment of Chunshan instead of like The Lingering Grudge of Smut Mountain or something. like the girlies are publishing rpf zines that are incredibly bawdy here.

Anyone who actually knows chinese is encouraged to correct me though since this is just my takeaway as a foreigner who reads a lot of tl danmei and doesn't actually know what logograms anything is written with

forget everything anyone has ever told you on the matter the truest marker of adulthood is starting to hear the siren call of high quality kitchenware

[tainbocuailnge]

to be clear you SHOULD buy that cast iron pan and you SHOULD buy that knife set and you SHOULD buy that fancy rice cooker and you SHOULD buy that novelty mug. high quality kitchenware is always worth it you’re literally gonna be using that almost every day

[augustdementhe]

I just need a good pot, a good wok, TWO paring knives, TWO steak knives, and one Santoku style choppitychoppity.

That’s IT.

I ask for SO LITTLE.

[rionsanura]

Very helpfully, there is someone keeping track of which high-quality kitchenware has been enshittified and which hasn’t.

My uncle is really into warhammer and would win every miniature painting competition he was in. I have not very steady hands and he saw me messing up my nail polish for prom. He sat with me and carefully painted my nails and that moment meant so much to me all these years later.

[tatzelwurming]

most weapons forged against me will in fact prosper but please don’t do any of that and instead be nice to me

genuinely what im up to on tumblr these days

[luckydicekirby]

sometimes a fic can just be about the age old question 'how emotionally bad for everyone involved can a threesome be when they all did in fact agree to be there'

A pissed off Su Xiyan, having escaped the water prison early, coldly and sharply explaining to all the cultivators there to take down her boytoy that no, she is not under any sort of spell, she's just the only one here smart enough to realise that since Tianlang-Jun has no interest in running his empire, by marrying him she carries out a bloodless coup and isn't that better for humanity you blithering idiots? Maybe ask yourselves what the Old Palace Master stands to gain from preventing that massive win for humanity, hmm?

Meanwhile the demons are like, "Uhh, Junshang, are you hearing this?"

And Tianlang-Jun is just like "Yeah, it's hot!"
