Combine them with oversized stolen hoodie for maximum irony and achieve supreme negative gender integer overflow fashion

I am posting from my new desktop, assembled by yours truly (with a lot of advice and tech support from friends online) over the weekend. If "didn't fuck up and break a thousand dollars' worth of electronics via fumblefingers" isn't cause to be happy, I'm not sure what is.

The Dysphoria Hoodie (TM) is a known item of clothing for trans people.

Honestly I'm probably gonna wind up with a fairly non-stereotypically girly-girl wardrobe. I'm just used to male clothing. It's weird how much of a difference there is between approaching masculinity while being masculine, and approaching masculinity while being feminine. And going the femboy route would actually be really dysphoria inducing for me.

Brain's fucked, it's weird.

Like expensive lego.

I remember the RAM sticks worrying me when I first made my computer, you have to put a surprising amount of force into them.

The RAM took a surprising amount of force, this is true, but for me the GPU was worse. It was a lot bigger for one thing, and instead of getting installed straight down onto the motherboard it had to go in sideways. It also took more pressure than expected, and this time it wasn't some $50 RAM stick but a significant portion of the entire build cost.

Sure looks nice now, but at the time it was nerve-wracking.

Been rereading the CHERUB books since I'd devoured them as a teenager a few times, but never picked them up again after that.

Obviously for young teenagers, it's not as good as something like Discworld or The Expanse, but it's got its charms and is being heavily propped up by my nostalgia. Pretty enjoyable.

It's got better branding at least than the tactical urban ghillie suit

Reminds me of a funny interaction I had with the best linguist I've ever known. Granted I don't know that many but they spoke over 10 languages fluently which is mighty fucking impressive. In their young adulthood they'd very quietly started transitioning mtf, and they told me about it asking what I thought and I said as long as you know it you know yourself best, and their big smile as I said come ere' and give me a big manly hug like always. Only then they were all 'no no, feminine hug.' Now I still don't know very well how to do anything but my best impression of an otter breaking a clam on its belly when I hug someone but Lord then did I try my best ;D

Regarding wardrobes, get an honest friend with an eye for colour and a friend with an honest eye for outlines. Sometimes that's the same person but often it's not; but colour and outline are universal fashion pillars. Most of all just whatever you wear have confidence in yourself, I'm never too bothered if I look like an eclectic mix of a homeless druid and a high class stripper, and all my good stuff I'm terrified of wearing because I don't want them all to get too threadbare like every other clothing I buy once and wear till they're xXtattered cloaksXx. And don't donate all your old clothes to charity if you've still got them, cos you can change a lot of their gender style real easy with a pair of scissors. Honestly if I had a time machine I'd stop the French revolution from happening. Not for any politics mind, it's just the disastrous consequence of 300 years of stigmatising men who wore heels, tights, ribbons and lace as aristocratic frenchies has done nightmares to fashion and gendered fashion which will take 300 years more to unfuck

We have a date for moving now. Is not out of the country but is to a better place indeed. Bye bye dilapidated house and centepides wars... the mosquitoes will not be missed.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?
My ship exploded midflight, but all the shrapnel totally landed on Alpha Centauri before anyone else did.  Bow before me world leaders!

Haha! Congratulations LordBaal, I'm so relieved you're moving up, albeit still not moving out proper it is still progress. Anything where you get to deal with less mosquitoes is a victory for sure

Considering maybe starting using this forum again. Some stuff happened in my life recently and I would like to return to this place from time to time. It's been so, so many years, though... ah well, it should be fine. Hello again, everyone.

Like... 90% of us realised we're trans too, so that's a thing you might have missed.
