so yeah, it means using the fancy soap, or putting on the glittery eyeliner, or planning a cute outfit, or doing stuff that seems a bit silly
like i just ordered an electric kettle for my bathroom. a fancy one where you can set the temp quite low. why? because it will make that one step easier to do daily neti pot rinses, and i know if i keep up neti pot rinses, i am much less bothered by sinus gunk.
facial hair removal
god it feels good to have a smoof face tho
i'm not going to bust out any of the big words like 'dysphoria' because i just am a cis girl with pcos i don't need to be up yoinking someone else's narrative, but man, having face fuzz is kinda like a low-level debuff ticking away over your head. i feel so so so much better now, especially after treating myself to a nice new razor cartridge.
i keep hearing notification pwips and all my notifications are "1 hour ago... 5 hours ago..." and it's driving me a little mad? i think mastodon tries to thread notifications but maybe someday i will be able to find a way to toggle it to strict chronological order
until then i'm gonna miss stuff oh well.
time to go take a shower

Still one of my favourite tweets, and one among many miqo'te facts from @coeurlclaw@twitter.com that I love #ffxiv
re: Facial hair self care.
@LuminousCorvid yeah, it is expensive. :( i'm afraid i don't have many tips there, since as far as i know it's pretty hard to do it at home. i wish you the best of luck though!
re: Facial hair self care.
@LuminousCorvid alas! the exact opposite problem i face. electrolysis is probably it, then :(
i will say i remember from my time doing it that numbing lotion beforehand (especially if you do saran wrap on top to kinda hold it in) helps immensely pain-wise :)
@Ivafakename okay that's very valid
offer your doll-disabling services for money then, you can probably at least get ten bucks for it
also, ouch ouch ouch, ouch, diggity dang ouch, if my teres major and pec minor muscles could PLEASE simmer down, holy shit, please, i will bribe you two with muscle relaxers and ice packs and more cbd oil!!!!
the worst part is that i know part of this is stuff that would be helped by nerve flossing but Oh My God I Hate Nerve Flossing
