<p>Welcome to my therapy journal! 😂 My name is Faith. I&#39;m just a <a href="https://anarres.family/tags/trans" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>trans</span></a> girl who&#39;s here to process her trauma and make some friends.</p><p>I&#39;m also <a href="https://anarres.family/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> and have <a href="https://anarres.family/tags/ADHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ADHD</span></a>. I&#39;m a deconstructing, homeschooled, ex-vangelical ex-Christian with all the trauma weirdness that comes along with that. Professionally, I work in the code mines, deep in the heart of Mt. Linux. Oh, and I have a Ph.D. in <a href="https://anarres.family/tags/Math" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Ma

    I’m hungry. All I’ve had is a small breakfast sandwich, a slice of lemon bread, a bowl of cup noodles, and a protein shake. Not disastrous on the nutrition front but not exactly good, either.

    I hate money. Like, I like having enough money to live. I just hate the whole system. I want to do my thing, go to somewhere where there is food to eat lunch, maybe sometimes help out with making the food so other people can eat lunch, and go back to doing my thing. Other people can use the things I make, too. I&#39;m not gatekeeping. Why can&#39;t we live like this? Money is just too damn stressful.

    Are they even instant noodles if there aren’t any Japanese, Chinese, or Korean characters anywhere on the packaging?

    @mayke@tech.lgbt I mean… fair. If someone wants to emulate my fabulousness, they’re more than welcome to.

    I kind of want to listen to old NOW! CDs from the late 90s and early 2000s to see what I missed. But I worry I&#39;ll take psychic damage if I do. 😅

    I don&#39;t know who on here needs to hear this but just because you struggled in school or never read as many books as your peers, that doesn&#39;t make you less, it doesn&#39;t make you stupid, and it likely isn&#39;t your fault. And I will fight anyone who says differently! Don&#39;t get me wrong. Education is important. But going to the library and spending your afternoon reading books isn&#39;t the only, or even necessarily the best way to get that education. The reality is that our educ...

    @CordiallyChloe@tech.lgbt @me@jaehanley.social Maybe? But I don’t think so. He never said he found my transness relatable. He just assumed it was sexual and that I was giving in to sexual temptation. He thought we could relate as two Christians fighting against temptation or some such. Beyond general statistics, I have no reason to think that his porn had anything to do with trans people. Which, back to the other thread, was more infantilisation!

    Ironic that Disney’s live action The Three Musketeers doesn’t have a French dub. It’s got like 12 other languages, just not French. Or maybe it’s that’s the whole movie is so incredibly offensive to the French that they couldn’t find anyone to do a French translation. 😅

    &quot;If it had been done corporate, there would have been 20 meetings and discussions about branding etc. But this guy can just code up an app in his pajamas, all vibe coded because it&#39;s just him doing what he wants.&quot; So you&#39;re telling me the problem is all the meetings... Seriously. AI didn&#39;t solve anything. It just provided a branding term for a guy making an app. And maybe it made it a bit easier for one guy to make something a little more flashy. That&#39;s it. The real t...

    It’s fun knowing that every time my parents torn their TV on there will be at least 2 anti-trans attack ads every 10 minutes but they’ll still vote straight ticket republican in November because they’re not actually voting for Trump so it’s okay.

    TFW: Someone posts a link to what should be a really useful website but you immediately can’t trust it because it ends in .gov. 😭

    Hair coloring is gender affirming care and it should be covered by insurance.

    Still have purple hair. Still a feminist. Just a little darker and more gothic this time. 💙💜🖤

    One of the cool things about having dyed hair is that you get to have someone do their art on your head. How cool is that! :purple_heart_eyes:

    I’m starting to get very excited for today’s hair coloring! 😍

    No, brain! I don’t need you to add baby fever to everything else I’m dealing with today. 🙄

    Looking through my photos to see past hair dye jobs and... Oh my gods I used to be ugly! Like, I knew transition was an improvement but holy shit!

    Another day. Another super cute thing the internet is trying to sell me but I know will never fit right. 😢

    Okay, I need to leave the discourse I started alone and finish making slides for my presentation I&#39;ve got coming up.

    “When I’m out with my boyfriend, no one is looking at those things. They just see a woman. Stop worrying about it.”, says straight trans girl with perfect makeup who 100% passes in every way. Like, yeah, it’s true that people are probably less aware of you than you are. And, really, I feel your mental struggle. But also, maybe not the best messenger…

    I’ve been trying to run at a calorie deficit again and ugh… my recovery is such shit! I’m tired all the time. I’m back in the gym today but I’m not sure how it’ll go. Probably fine. My body isn’t giving out and I’m not getting sick. I just kinda feel like crap.

    @BathysphereHat@mastodon.online I what looking for it and did an image search for “Brianna Wu meme” and instantly took psychic damage. They’re all that bad. 😬

    NGL, every time I write something about race dynamics and a white person tells me it was amazing, I can’t help but wince a little. Don’t get me wrong. I’m flattered. And I’m glad that you got something from it. I wouldn’t have written it if I didn’t think it needed to be said. But also, if your take away is that we should all listen to the white girl, something has gone very, very wrong. I’m not an expert here. I’m a fuck-up. I’m trying to learn from my mistakes and do better but I’m not the o...
