So I had some shitty brain thoughts for most of the day. And then I saw this video.
The bad thoughts haven't gone away, but I also found some good things to think about too. So enjoy some really beautiful people doing something beautiful. The world is...challenging, but we can all still come together to be happy and celebrate each other, right?
Sometimes the pot makes it worse. Being aware and sentient is such a strain sometimes. Being awake in a decaying meat body makes it worse.
Now hiring: someone to adopt me to be my cool trans mom.
Job duties include:
I'll occasionally tell you about my transition progress and we can talk about how life is hard but we're doing a good job.
I'll write you a letter around Mother's Day and we can joke about how it arrived late in the mail.
idk I can bake cookies too for birthdays I guess???
#DigitalLife #TMITuesday Ask me stuff! Anything and everything! Lewds to @kelseyhusky@yiff.life if you wanna keep things partitioned, but I'll answer them here too!
re: Uptime Anniversary Celebratiion After-action report: Coda 1
My journey to get my sword has been slightly convoluted, but is coming to an end!
First, my order needed to be adjusted, since I got charged for incorrect parts, so I got a refund of almost 100 bucks back. That all went fine.
At the beginning of last week, I got an email saying my saber was complete and I could pick it up in store.
Which wouldn't be an issue if I lived closer to the forge, and if I hadn't asked for it to be shipped out.
Turns out shipping hadn't been added to the order, so my saber was defaulted to in-store pickup.
But SF is being awesome and is sending my order to the shipping department.
Should be getting tracking information sometime soon!
Oh spark this is better.
My main internet interface has been offline for most of the past week while I've been transferring the hardware into a new support scaffold. I just did a preliminary test fire and I am happy to report that this battle station should be fully operational within the next 72 hours.
re: CW: HRT, Trans progress, Update
Yeah. I’m pretty sure Mom didn’t even read this email. Figures.
re: CW: HRT, Trans progress, Update
Call pushed back again to tomorrow.
I don't care about what happens on the call. I'm just...
Done...
With...
Waiting.
That's giving me more anxiety than anything.
CW: HRT, Trans progress
The blood goddess has accepted my latest sacrifice. After giving it her consideration, she decreed that my T-levels are appropriately supressed and I may proceed as I wish without additional adjustment.
My doctor rocks.
and The Call after The Email is going to happen sometime today.
[Muffled anxiety modem noise screaming]
My main battlestation is undergoing a revision and being based off a new main desk, which is causing some frustration as parts and systems I had for my old desk are not compatible with the new desk.
I have a vision in mind for what I want my digital cradle to look and feel like. It's a feasible goal, and I know I can do it.
It's just gonna cost a little more money and time for components to ship to Gateway.
I wanna talk #DigitalLife! Ask me stuff about Huskybots and KA35!
CW: Coming out, parents, waiting (~,~)
Finally sent my coming out email to my mom on my uptime anniversary date (July 6th, if anyone was curious) and then tried to call her on Friday like I said i would. But it was my parent's anniversary, and they were out at dinner, so they weren't exactly in a good spot to talk about all my stuff. Which I totally get and don't begrudge them for.
But I also tried to set up time to talk over the weekend, and basically got no response.
Because Mom is trying to get the house clean for health inspection so that Dad can do dialysis at home. Cause he just had his little shunt ports implanted on the 3rd.
Again, no begrudgement on my part for that. He's 60+ and hasn't been in the best shape when I was living with them.
But now I've got to wait all week til Friday again to have this out with Mom, and waiting just fills my buffers with anxiety and catastrophe data. which sucks to try and clear from my caches, cause its stubborn and has very long TTL timers.
*beep* Raow! Are there new friends to find here?
Huskybots, nerd, trans, PoC, furry, poly, thirsty AF, budding stoner.
