boston cream donuts and pretzel buns for sharing today, hopefully the start to another great week of pride 🌈✨

Mancubus has a terrifying secret

ive seen this joke for years and i laugh but also wince because this is just who is behind all of the decisions that piss us off

Curious implications for Aim for the Top

i don't necessarily believe in cooking at home as an intrinsic good (though i enjoy it quite a bit) but my experience is that if you specialize into getting very, very good at cooking for large groups of people it will bring good things into your life

having an all-timer pride month so far and the lestat show hasn't even premiered yet

the return of multiplayer co-op dinner: roast chicken and pepperjack mac (mine) with spiced potatoes and roast broccoli (my friends') plus excellent pride month viewing: people's joker + the first two episodes of nana. this is living

not only do i give madchen in uniform (1931) my maximum recommendation level as a gay teen film that feels fresh despite being nearly 100 years old; it also has me revisiting scholarship on nobuko yoshiya and contemporary sexology bc it is *packed* with classic s-era yuri tropes

more generally, coming into yr sexual sense of self as a trans or queer person can be an intense experience that makes you want to write things like "suck more girldick" and mostly when see that i think "well here's someone who just needs to settle down a little"

i think there are blurry and permeable boundaries between trans women owning + feeling sexually confident in our bodies as they are vs. broader culture reducing us to sex objects for those same characteristics and i don't begrudge anyone who feels weird about it

biscuits n donuts for a little picnic today ^_^ i did a full batch of donuts not just the two but they're in the freezer for later

all the moms together 😝

ほぼ完成wip

in the past i've taken issue with maple bacon donuts, and i still think that donuts that just have a floppy greasy strip of bacon on top are not it. but in recent years i've come to see that nice crispy bacon bits can be a nice garnish with maple icing. people can change

actually 3 of these 4 were with friends that's the true power of the movies

it's important to know that it's okay to go to the movies alone and we should all do that more but it is also good and important to go to the movies with your friends too :)

Brother this pornographic fanart fails to capture the spirit of the character

girl who finally scheduled a new ffs consult for next week <-- :]

my apartment is rich with the smell of caramelized onions and freshly-baked pretzel rolls

i have the holiday off and my apartment is rich with the smell of caramelized onions

smth almost nostalgic any time you have to return to Transition Stuff this many years in. browsing reddit threads to check stories about service providers... my god i'm 26 again

i cannot believe that i am still dealing with utility paperwork problems over 3 months after moving into my new address

touhou project / alice margatroid [overall ver.] wip thread! this is my first arranged outfit cosplay: the centerpiece will be a denim overall dress with 7-color rainbow trim and embroidered dolls patches (from the video ofc), paired with a frilly blouse + red denim accessories!

having that miserable category of day where you sleep in nearly 12 hours until 1pm and spend the rest of the day still feeling like you need to sleep immediately

this site really needs the "remove follower" feature

the culture on this website has been starting to weird me out in a way distinct from anything the old one had and some recent events have kinda crystallized that for me. i won't explain because i don't want to invite trouble

missing this guy

closing in on my usual max of 15 reps per set with the weight i added to my routine back in march. feels kind of lonely; i miss when just curling 20lbs was a big deal

having now done a rewatch: my iwtv friends and mutuals definitely need to watch this movie

used up my remaining chives and milk from the weekend to do potatoes for a classic ruxy stew night 🍲🥔

seeing "transwoman" creep back into the non-TERF vernacular is some crazy work

i say this sort of thing with some regularity now, but you will absolutely fry your brain spending too much time in certain types of online trans spaces. finding and connecting with your peers is important, but in those early years you also need to find models of trans happiness

the health of any given friend circle can be measured in part by how many food containers you either need to get back from friends or return to them the next time you hang out. a bi-directional exchange causes a further 2x quality multiplier

For @aftermath.site: Bambu Lab, a giant in the 3D printing space, threatened a developer for trying to restore their product's functionality using their own open source code. The blowback was enormous and may have exposed something far more consequential. aftermath.site/bambu-lab-ag...

bad vibes on on the other website this morning, and this one doesn't feel particularly better. i am going to try to spend my time somewhere else today

looking up denim overall sewing patterns for my big summer cos build and feeling i might just try to clone one of the garments i already have bc nothing is coming up just the way i want >:[

colored sketch of my gaslighting ragebaiting queen 💛 #umineko #うみねこFA

you can really pinpoint the moment when this show permanently reconfigured 28 year old ruxy's brain

foundational image for who i have become in the years since gou/sotsu aired

old episode 1 art i still like, i remember this moment fondly #umineko #うみねこFA

i need Well Meaning Cis Allies to understand that identifying someone as trans because you want to make them feel seen and offer support can also easily come across as just outing lol

i did a cosplay mini-project this weekend: storage boxes for my more heavily-styled wigs! they're 12x12x12 cardboard boxes i got on sale + scrap ribbon + 3d printed mounts for existing head forms. need to find a good reusable non-tape seal for the fronts hmm....

pharmacy can't refill one of my hormone meds bc it's out of stock and i have < 2 weeks of it left. wonderful awesome love to hear it

im going to take a shower and move the pc back into my bedroom and then crash harder than i have all year up to now,

everyone start having your friends over for dinner more NOW
