  • For real though, I did research on the topic of gender identity as part of my BSc in psychology. I had a bunch of ‘this trans specific experience is relatable to me’ moments but I always put it aside. I finally started to ask myself at some point how many ‘relatable’ moments do I need to have for them to be statistically significant … so I started questioning joined the instance here and was totally not trans. Just working things out and I was quite sure I might just be non binary.

    A meme you shared was an egg_irl starter pack, made it onto my local feed.

    I thought okay show me what you’ve got and marked all the things that I felt I relate to. It was all but two of the items. That combined with my rateable moments finally did crack my egg for good. I have started the process and long road to HRT and can now finally put into words what I have been suppressing for the last 20 years.

    PS: I only wish you would have done that when I was 12, when I was experimenting being a girl in secret, alone in my room without internet 😅 took you long enough :3 😜

    Now I am left with one question, what are you gonna make with all the eggs you have cracked? Omelette, pancakes or something else? Do you just collect them like Pokémon?

    **edit for time line corrections and adding of the meme post in question.













  • I am not sure if it fits your bill, but when I am overwhelmed by my factorio mega base or tired of traffic in cities skyline I now switch to the recently released Sintopia. It scratches the build-optimising itch, but does so in rounds with a clear goal and a defined end. You can go endless and sandbox if you wish but I find it at the moment relaxing to know that after maximal 10 ish hours of avoiding the goal I can finish the run anytime and do a new one. And don’t actually have to fix everything.
