now that hrt is like. a Thing That Is Gonna Happen, i'm thinking a lot more about myself and how i present myself, and i'm coming to the realization that i have no goddamn sense of self whatsoever. and that's really starting to hurt in the fashion department, and like. my sense of personal style in general. i've never put thought into my wardrobe, i just have baggy tshirts and blue jeans and a few hoodies and flannels for winter. buying new clothes for me consists entirely of picking up tshirts sporadically when i see one i like and buying everything else when the old ones wear out. and now i'm at a point where i'm realizing, fuck, i actually want to care how i look. i want to understand what i like and build my presentation around that. i don't want to just wear baggy jeans and tshirts, but i've also convinced myself that i can't get away with wearing anything else. partially because i don't know where to start, partially because i've grown up as the kid who's Taller and Larger than average so most of my clothes growing up were more utilitarian than stylish, cus that's what was in my size.
i dunno, this is one of those things where it's. kinda hitting me how much i missed out on. stuff like fashion was never really something i had to encounter cus when you're growing up in Boy Form you can kinda just wear whatever and nobody second guesses you. so it's never something i learned how to work with or appreciate or even understand where to start.
and like, on top of that! i grew up as the tall fat kid, i learned to not put much stock in how i looked for as long as i can remember, and i never actually learned how to start appreciating my body. and like i look in the mirror now and i. just can't imagine making anything out of this. like the proverbial Girl In The Mirror is so fundamentally differently built from me, i don't even know where to begin.
ugh. i'm glad i have an appointment set up and i'm glad i'm gonna do this, i think i would regret it even more if i gave up on hrt and just tried to suppress it for even longer. but it's also dredging up a lot of emotions i thought i had buried pretty well and to be honest that part kinda sucks!

for real though that post is so true on the love front i think about it all the time like why is everyone so LOVELESS not even just in like cishetero marriages where they hate each other just in general like platonic too. it drives me craaazy when im exposed to it like why are ppl like this !! why dont you love your friends and partner!! its like everything is a social game that theyre playing just for validation and lacking real connection and its a game where theyre always about 2 steps away from being bitter and hateful towards their friends/lover like STOOOOP! im someone who values love and kindness so much and it baffles me. why do you hate your partner! why do you talk about them like theyre an object of validation! why are you dating someone you clearly dislike! why are u so mean to ur friends behind their backs im cryin. why do you up and abandon them the second you get a partner bc you dont value them over the romantic validation you get. ive always been such an affectionate person at heart and i value what my friends say so much and i always find myself feeling so distant from people in relationships because they just feel?? so shallow?? and distant from me. like i think oh this preson gets me but theres ppl who say the same things how they value kindness and love but its always like, immediately clear they are actually a deeply mean person and just enjoy feeling like theyre 'good'. the way society functions with relationships feels so intensely shallow and i cannot connect to it at all. i love my friends and i love people and i always want to understand them and reach out with compassion and be close to them physically and emotionally speaking and talk a lot and listen to them. however im cursed to live in a world of 1 word responses if any at all and shallow relationships where no one gaf about each other and then i get told i talk too much. hello? *tapping mic* hello? is this thing on? be filled with whimsy and love going forward please. anyway does anyone else feel this way or is it just me feel free to talk about it if youd like

forget sinking ships;
i'm the centenarian titan brought to surface
only to be lit up, gussied, and gawked at.
slap a coat of paint over
the shearing of waves along my side
and tell everyone admission covers maintenance.

I just wanted you to know you're very wholesome and I admire that, because it's something hard to keep as you grow older. You're like Polites on cotton candy 🍭
Oh, thank you! 🥹 That's incredibly sweet!
I always try my best to look on the bright (yet still understanding) side of things as there always is one! :D There's good in everything! Even in darker aspects of a story/myth!
There's a lot of humanity and kindness in places you wouldn't expect and it honestly feels silly to act like such things aren't possible! :D

people who are so hateful just because they dont like something is such a funny concept to me . maybe thats just me being crazy because i try my best to never spread hate as i know thats all i want in return . to not be hated for something innocent
like voicing ur opinion on something is fine in most situations! doing it to hurt others or just generally be harmful, make someone else do something they dont want to do, or in general be a bad person- like ... be quiet bro dont nobody want to hear it i promise u
