housing, boosts welcome 

my partner and I are getting evicted soon.

would there happen to be anyone in the fediverse who knows someone in sydney who'd be willing to rent a room to 2 transfeminine nonbinary people?

@green @anthracite I can neither confirm nor deny the addictive and obsession-causing properties of tails.

Stash brand tea is weak and generally unimpressive

Okay, next task: bring in the groceries, then use them to assemble a grilled cheese sandwich with leftover rotisserie chicken

My life has one true, sincere goal:

Bring technology to the point where my brain can be transplanted into a giant lizard robot and be rejuvenated into immortal youth, then do it

I mean, it's a long term plan, but that's the basic idea

IF YOU:

* get excited when you hear a crow rattle
* can tell at least two different kinds of crow alarm calls
* can recognize at least two of your local crow murder by their behavior/calls
* run to the window when you hear crows mobbing something to see what they're after

YOU MIGHT BE A CROW PERSON

@Finfell@dragon.style The ones who operate mostly by statistical analysis and "chasing what works" could make good forensic accountants. The ones who operate by classical interpersonal persuasion could be good educators.

social anxiety 

I'm bad at being queer because I'm afraid of making people uncomfortable by existing as myself and I'm bad at being around people who are more comfortable expressing themselves because I'm too afraid that other people are secretly uncomfortable and not saying anything.

My social anxiety is perfectly happy to invent problems in the absence of problems. I should get out of this habit.

I wish I knew how to stop being terrified of appearing obviously queer. I'm not able to think about how I wanr to look because of the anxiety that comes along, and everything I'd want gets tagged as scary instead.

I'm afraid of random violence from strangers (bus passengers, rideshare drivers), stigma at work (even though I already use singular-they pronouns for myself), photos getting back to my family, probably more. I have a variety of forms of internalized transphobia and misogyny

The fifth annual Gender Census is now open until 1st March 2018!

smartsurvey.co.uk/s/gendercens

It's for anyone whose genders (or lack thereof) aren't described by the M/F binary. It's pretty short and easy, and the results are useful in academia, business, and self-advocacy.

Familial emotional abuse 

@Jacel @xurnami I have a lot of issues with this. I still get after myself for "why didn't you fix it sooner, then" and sabotage my own attempts to do stuff better. I don't honestly know how much of it directly traces back to my family though.

@Sparkyopteryx hm, I like your art style, and I’m glad to jump on your availability when it’s available! Thanks for the introduction, @Leucrotta. ^..^

Is Mastodon the best way to reach you, or do you prefer other tools?
