That voice group meeting was useful, also got a book suggestion from a coworker who moonlights as a voice actor, though it took him some convincing since he thinks sounding feminine in retail makes customers less mad or some silly shit. Naw, they were mad long before they got to the line.

Otherwise not doing so well, this sinus infection is kicking my ass and draining me, I know its related to that never ending dental abscess, it just took until this month to finally get scheduled to be seen by a somewhat affordable dentist, though still ouch. I hope when I finally get seen that's the resolution of it, it doesn't come back to pester.

new unjust depths chapter!

spoilerthe date is so good, shalikova gay af and the way it ended was heartbreaking. the meeting was great, i love erika and moravskyi getting drunk and bonding. the chapter ending is very distressing, given her faction's already established opinions on shmii decolonization efforts. i feel she may not be being entirely honest about the shmii hordes displacing and destroying the eloim homeland!

this ancient Reddit post is making me die inside. First comment is a shitton of upvotes basically saying nobody likes me or people like me. Death to all Reddit users

Y'know 4chan's /lgbt/ is a popular source of brainworms, but I think reddit-logo will rise to prominence in the future as a major source for brainworms too. Awful place.

Holy shit actuallesbians was such a fucking hellhole.

Did you experience other issues with it? Most people talked about it as a very welcoming and open place in other subreddits and stuff, but to be fair those are also on Reddit

I mean it wasn't like a terf place I guess, but I would say the linked thread is kind of representative of common attitudes? As much as you had lots of decent cis who wouldn't need to face the wall, you also had shit like that not infrequently. Very clearly run by & for the cis imo.

I recently made a friend that I’m getting to know. He’s a very nice guy, but is very clear that his life is being steered solely by toxic masculinity. I genuinely feel bad for him because it seems it’s making his life feel empty regardless of the sheer success he’s enjoyed in life so far. Fortunately it doesn’t seem like he has been scooped up by the likes of Shapiro and the like, so maybe I can help steer him somewhat.

It also made me realize that a lot of my time spent before my egg cracked was influenced by the toxic masculinity that I grew up with. I didn’t realize how much of it adversely affected me all this time and how much I still unconsciously espouse into daily thought. Fortunately most of it is shed now aside from a few things. Hopefully the rest will leave soon.

this is so interesting, and something I've experienced as well, as an enby who very likely is on the autism spectrum. since the only way I knew to perform manhood was to emulate the men around me, and so many of them were toxically masculine and misogynistic, I would act toxically masculine and misogynistic in an effort to fit in as one of them. I'd actually say that unlearning the fake masculinity is part of what helped me come to terms with being cisn't, come to think of it.

Starting to shed that masculinity is what helped me along with actually exploring my gender. It became heavily internalized and made it very difficult to shed. Once the pieces started falling is when I slowly started to realize I was trans.

But gods did my upbringing really fuck me up. I still have really bad thoughts that were kinda ingrained into my brain from my upbringing that I struggle to remove to this day. I shan’t repeat them here obviously, but I am very ashamed that they still exist.
