two streams of consciousness in one!! enjoy the yap sesh I think I'm not alone at all in these sentiments but I think that generations r a scam made up by companies to sell more stuff by using the trend of tying one's identity to the shit they consume, so they can make you feel even more yourself (if that makes any sense). Women have gotten this for centuries, but all the microcyles and -cores and... » Continue Reading

SO according to this link , 1/3 of UK employers are "reluctant" to hire a transgender person - whether it's because they transphobic, or they think it's too much effort to accommodate a trans person (transphobic), etc. I did not register this in the "are you one of those damn minorities" parts of the applications I did for apprenticeships and stuff » Continue Reading
So I copped some Rogaine (I cannot believe somebody on r/transgenderUK just gave me a whole pack, it's like £30??) and I was told by the giver that he saw results 3 months in, which is pretty good by pre-t standards. If I'm still on this hellsite by August 19th I'll check in. I did my research (watching old trans guy youtube videos) and looked around my house to find any secret invisible cats. All... » Continue Reading
So many of them are just on the toxic gossip train on the way to Manipulation Station fr.... "How to make X obsessed" "secret code" "do this trick" bro it's not a fucking witch's game it's somebody's life, and a relationship based on that isn't gonna work well. You guys like the thrill more tbh » Continue Reading
On Friday, I watched Kokomo City (2023), after having put it off for a very long time (for as long as Koko has been dead). It's a must-see about trans girls in sex work for survival, and the dangers and men they service. I lived for the stylistic choices for greyscale, and the word art, and the way flashbacks and stories were enacted. D. Smith really had a laptop and a dream and it's obvious, but ... » Continue Reading
If you are passively suicidal, I highly recommend pursuing education anyway. I didn't do a personal statement or anything because I didn't see myself living this long, and now I'm a month away from finishing a-levels without any plan in place. I don't have any ambitions anyway, but it's very annoying to hear your parents talk about how much of a failure you are. I'm applying to any job I can at th... » Continue Reading
as everybody born in 2005-07 is growing up and looking back on themselves in 2020, instead of calling it "cringe" and spending too much time hating on yourself for not knowing better, look at how much you've learned since then! eyeliner skills, better writing, whatever your thing was. I personally learned to stop engaging with literal idiots online. Even though the household I live in isn't at all... » Continue Reading
Think about it - ever since booktok exploded, authors have had an increasing responsibility to promote their own book. It's similar to music artists, because publishers are moving like record labels and skimping out on promotions. Authors don't know how to promote their work, so they rely purely on the algorithm - hence, an emphasis on tropes (often they highlight the tropes without actually givin... » Continue Reading
I'm making a nav bar for my neocities - for some reason, the only time when my nav bar will align itself horizontally when the only detail is "display:inline." Any other variable makes it vertical again. Here's the full snippet: » Continue Reading
I got the groov-e personal player, which doesn't come with a speaker, but DOES have earphones. I bought the batteries today & I think for £20 it's pretty cool - I virtually got it for free anyway because I used a voucher I earned from participating in a study about eating habits. I also bought the new Green Day album to accompany it, but since I have only ever heard "American Idiot," I used my Nov... » Continue Reading
this taught me that I need practice, like badly. It went okay though! More than I thought, and I think she was more embarrassed than me, so I reassured her loads - maybe we'll do it again someday. » Continue Reading
