If you want to get a young kid into tabletop RPGs, but think D&D might be a bit beyond them, maybe check out CoraQuest! I just did a test run through on my own, so I could play it with my son, and it was super fun! Ages 6 and up.

Slightly smiling selfie. My long brown hair is parted deep on the right, ponytailed, then draped over my left shoulder; the ponytail is dyed teal. I’m wearing a dark blue tank top and a thick gold necklace that comes to a point at the base of my throat.

Landscape at twilight, with a number of large trees in the middle distance, filtering the light of several lampposts in the farther distance, where there are a number of large houses on the opposite end of a parking lot.

I really nailed my gym girl hair today.
Achievement unlocked: A woman told me she liked my dress, and I said, “Thanks, it has pockets!”
Well, kids, I’m divorced. Late Monday night, when I signed the paperwork after 10 hours of mediation, I felt totally shattered. Today, I feel hopeful, lighter. Time to start forging my own new path in earnest.

@faithisleaping@anarres.family It took me many, many hours, but it was so worth it!
Well, my amazing girlfriend, whom I dated a year ago, had to break up with because divorce was still upending my life, remained friends with, and finally was overjoyed to get a second chance with, had to break up with me for stupid reasons outside both our control. I totally understand her decision, but we’re both heartbroken.
Anyway, you nice people might be seeing a bit more of me again now that I’m not spending my spare time with her. 😔
They have a girl bass player, though—literally the hottest instrument a woman can play in a rock band.
Tangenting off someone else’s post, here’s a very silly take: Vim is a domme. It’s bossy and very procedural, but ultimately you (the sub) are the one in control. Vim has safe words. “Oh, you think you’ve had enough? If you really want to be done, use this exact expression, and I will release you.“
It’s not great at aftercare, though.
On my way with my parents to a family wedding, so I did my makeup in the back seat of the car while driving down the interstate! I don’t think I’ve ever done a worse job on my eyeliner 😂. But fortunately I have new green eyeshadow to help fudge it over. I also used blush for the first time ever. I think I might have gone overboard because I was having trouble getting even light on my face. Doing makeup in the car is obviously an aspect in which I need to level up!
Today is one year since I took my first tiny little dose of Estradiol 1mg; Happy HRTversary to me!
I can vibe with this
Y’all, my girlfriend’s so cool and wonderful 🥰

@eruonna@lgbtqia.space I think we can assume you got hotter after transition, so you might have a little catching up to do now.

@miriamrobern@dice.camp I also thought of “Jabberwocky”, but I had a Google fail and came up with the wrong word count 🤪
At-Home Laser Week 6: Still hurts a lot, but maybe it hurts a tiny bit less than Week 5? Because I think I have slightly less hair in some places? Or I’m just getting used to the pain and therefore deluding myself that the device is working.
At-Home Face Laser Week 10: A very noticeable improvement—a lot less pain in all the areas that had the thickest hair when I started! 🎉💃🏻
I don’t really see myself as a mom, so I’m not sad that I don’t get recognized on Mother’s Day. What does make me sad is that today is the day *after* my son’s birthday, his mom planned his birthday party for today instead of his actual birthday because he’d be with her, not me, and then told me I wasn’t invited. (I could not have planned his party for his actual birthday for reasons I’m not willing to discuss here.) So here I am, missing my son‘s birthday party for the first time in his life.

@miona@toot.lgbt One of the biggest gender returns on investment I can think of.
If anyone (especially trans girlies with big feet) wants to know where I got my wedding shoes:

It’s not the easiest thing in the world to find size 12 and higher shoes, so I was really psyched that these worked out so well. They are *very* comfortable.

@AppleFangirl@beige.party I was gone for so long I missed that you had a girlfriend now! Welcome back, for however “back” you are.
Replying to
@natasha@lgbtqia.space Aw, thanks! I am excited but also nervous about this wedding because it’ll be the first time most of my family will see me in a dress. Maybe the hair will distract them!
Replying to
@ciara@anarres.family It was dicey, let me tell you!

@ciara@anarres.family Next: the “not having to keep adding eyeliner because the car bounced and my hand slipped” skill 😂

@natasha Thanks 🥰 It’s nice to know I have supportive friends somewhere

It’s being transmitted across the universal trans girl frequency; the signal just hasn’t gotten to your part of the world yet.

@Daojoan@mastodon.social My therapist gave me a shorthand for how to do this in a healthy way: “You can feel the feeling without *being* the feeling.”

@miona@toot.lgbt Same! Just need to finish paying for my divorce first 🤪

@ciara@anarres.family This only happens to me when trying to do my waterline—and it’s only happened a handful of times even then. Start with your upper lid, and the risk of poking is very low.

@xorlou@lgbtqia.space Nice! I don’t feel like I’ve gotten results like this from my at-home laser device.
Replying to
@IsabelB@mastodon.ie Haha, this is probably the second-to-last family wedding I’ll ever attend! I have one much younger cousin who’s still single, and after that it’s probably funerals all the way down.

@ciara@anarres.family Comforting lies aren’t my style, alas. But really it’s very rare, and even when it does happen I just blink furiously for a few seconds and I’m done.
