Hi everybody! My schedule has been really unforgiving, so I may or may not end up writing something and making changes to the post later in the week.
Regardless, I hope you all have a good week!

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

Seeing what Trump and the Republicans are doing, and plan to do, makes me so doomer and there’s nothing I can do to get out of it. They are winning. People hate us. They support these EOs. The end goal is eliminating us.

I love my long hair but it makes shaving my face so much worse and more frustrating. I hate every part of it. god I wish I was cis. I never want to deal with this again. Horrible, horrible stuff.

It’s one of the reasons the grey market and DIY in general is so important for our resilience as a community. They can declare whatever they want to be illegal, we can get our hormones regardless. It isn’t easy and it sucks but we can survive.
Cis women sometimes have facial hair, number one customers of laser hair removal and electrolysis is cis women (which is why it’s such a pain in the ass for me to find someone to do my fucking shit!!). You’d be surprised how many have the same complaints you do lol

Fwiw the hair will stop getting in the way while shaving when it gets longer and you can put it behind your ears. Probably just needs a few months. You’re just in the awkward period rn where the hair is long but not long enough to be usable for anything yet. Once you’re past it you won’t need to deal with it again.
