Do you know any podcasts with transfeminine main characters?
Apologies for the delay. I have a few:
Between Heartbeats: (Urban Fantasy) In a city of incredible abilities and mundane struggle, we follow Sundiata, a time-manipulator struggling to stay employed. During a a quick break from waiting tables to go help in an emergency, she instead finds herself caught in a bizzare mystery. Unfortunately release seems to have stalled following the first episode, but I'm eagerly awaiting its return.
Inn Between: (Fantasy, Adventure) What the adventuring heroes get up to at the tavern, between the grand adventures. Cleverly fills the listener in on the adventures using "previously on" and "next time on" segments. You'll need to wait (or jump) to Season 3 to meet our transfem lead, but she is an absolute delight.
Interference: (Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Romance) A human tabletop podcaster and an orc researcher get their broadcast signals crossed between worlds, and start a dialogue. Cross-reality research, and a budding romance, ensue.
The Magnus Protocol: (Horror) Seeking employment, Sam gets a job working with his friend Alice for a bizzare little government office. The work? Night shifts listening to, and then cataloguing, bizzare and unsettling material trawled from the internet. Despite Alice's warnings, Sam may be getting a little too invested.
The Night Post: (Supernatural) Concerning the conscripted nighttime couriers/postal workers of Gilt City, and the otherworldy encounters they have on the job.
PSST: Paranatural Support Services Team: (Supernatural) Struggling with a supernatural entity or haunting encounter? The PSST's got you covered. Meet The Agent at the other end of the phone as she gives advice, unravels mysteries, and tries to work out just how long it's been since she went home.
The Silt Verses: (Horror) In a modern world where gods are abundant, frequently both commercialised and restricted, two devotees of an outlawed river god go on a pilgrimage. You'll meet the character in question a few episodes in.
Breathing Space: (Sci-fi, Space Western, Anthology) Included more as a special mention (as this is an anthology and the leads change every episode), Breathing Space is an array of stories set in the early age of space exploration that leans hard into the "Western" part of "Space Western". A not-insignificant number of the stories feature trans characters. If you don't vibe with the first story, do me a favour and listen to the second before you bail.
Additions are, of course, always welcome.

I recorded this while playing with pressure for the first time after a break of a year or more. Straight away I could tell that my heart wasn't used to it: the rasping murmur of the blood being forced out of my heart was the loudest it's ever been, drowning out my S1 and S2. My heart sped up, then skipped, then began to slow (the first time pressure's caused that reaction for me) until it felt like it was about to stop. I don't plan to do this again any time soon, but it felt and sounded fascinating...
Would love to hear your thoughts!

Idk if you do suggestions or not but how do you think Home manages a very sick reader. Like we can barely move for weeks and of course home gets unkept, but its not like we dont care! We'd likely cry from guilt about it :(
Note: Assuming we are taking the place of Wally
Well, for starters, Home wouldn't know the slightest idea on what to do. What is happening to you? Are you hurt? Now, I think Home would understand the concept of being hurt as the same thing to being broken. He'll think that you're somehow broken and need to be fixed, but he also knows food and water rejuvenates and 'fixes' you so he'll try to feed you by opening the pantry and fridge hoping it'll entice you.
When it doesn't he's at a loss for words on what to do. He'll worry greatly when he sees you visibly getting worse by the minute. Remember this house has a heartbeat so you'll hear it pick up pace in his panic. Some reassuring words and a quick explanation on what colds are and it'll calm slightly.
He'll want you to sleep where he can see you at all times for his own good conscious. The poor house wouldn't get any sleep with your coughing and sneezing keeping him up. He's not complaining, he's just worried.
He wouldn't be much of physical comfort for he cannot hug you or tell you that everything is going to be okay, but you can feel that he loves you and that is what matters.
He wouldn't care when the trash can gets full and starts swarming with fruitflies or when the sink piles with dirty dishes or dust starts to cake on his floorboards, he knows it's not your fault. All he wants is for you to be safe and well.
Everytime you have the strength to eat something Home will applaud you by slightly opening and closing his side windows (as to not accidentally let a draft in). I promise he's so proud of you! When you feel better and immediately start to clean up (with guilt heavy on your heart) Home doesn't know what to think.
First he thinks you should rest some more before all of that! Secondly he thinks he's such a lucky house to have someone that cares so immensely for him as he does you. You're gonna make him cry!
Now don't you ever go and scare him like that again!

I was listening to my heartbeat a few days ago and could hear an S3 when I was lying on my left side and listening to my mitral valve. I thought you all might be interested to hear it too.
