The post op routine I've fallen into is watching Star Trek TNG while my partner hacks on creating organizing infrastructure and I play The Sims4 :3

I'm looking forward to having the stamina to make art and organize myself tho :p

question for nb folks (boosting is ok) 

do you feel that the word "trans" applies comfortably to you? if not, are there other people who identify as NB that you mentally consider to fit that label?

i don't necessarily mean in a self-gatekeeping way or anything, but the conflation of those two terms seems to vary from person to person

i've been sort of iffy about where i fit into the whole "cis"/"trans" dichotomy but i've also still felt aimless about pretty much everything about the NB identity

sending love and strength to DC antifascists today โœŠ๏ธ #AllOutDC

I made breakfast, cleaned my room, and wrote an email

So I guess the exhaustion makes sense :P

@chartier hrm. Maybe โ€œhostsโ€? Cause weโ€™re all guests that have to abide by the rules.

After sleeping on it, I think #Mastodon should rename โ€˜instancesโ€™ to โ€˜Communities.โ€™

Instances feels too technical and I see even savvy people struggling to understand it.

I argue communities would make much more sense. It denotes much of the purpose behind _why_ this service has different instances, and many people will already be familiar with the concept from Reddit (the, what, sixth most popular site on the net?).

If I get the laundry now, I don't have to do anything for the rest of the day and can just dissolve into my writer boi and their fox friend in the sims4.

But like, I can only give rough %s to it now that I know what it feels like to be *not* disassociated so

Show thread

For years I've felt like for the most part I was 25-50% here and 50-75% disassociated unless I worked really hard to ground myself

Now I feel like that's flipped and it's magical

Show thread

Like I *knew* I'd always been at least *somewhat* disassociated at all times.

The amount of times I've been *entirely* in my body post-menses I can probably count on one hand.

I just didn't realize it was SO MUCH until now.

But ALSO the small of my back behind where my uterus was?

Suddenly NOT constantly tense or twinging?!

Stress will fuck you up, turns out

Show thread

Less "vaguely everywhere" and more, "if I'm remotely stressed, these muscles in my spine ache", and "sometimes my wrists/hands hurt inexplicably for a little while"

Show thread

I've been so much less disassociated since getting my hysto. I have learned so much about my body and where/when pain pops up in the last 12 days that I have actually inhabited my skincage.

Way easier to keep track this way. O.o
