Was dysphoric.
Made bread.
Was less dysphoric and now with great bread 😎
Sense8, mostly because it's just a good thriller series made by two trans women (the same who made the Matrix) where one of the main characters are trans. It has a lot of themes around community and acceptance of differences.
Just some minor theme spoilers

She goes through some hardship that feels very trans adjacent, and it's super sex positive, which some people find awkward.
Thanks and you too 💙
Right now I'm on pills, but just in case they become unavailable I've also prepared to switch to injections 🙂
I started with patches but the levels were also a bit sketchy on me for some reason and they constantly became unavailable which was stupid stressful.
I know people it works great on, but my skin don't absorb it :(
More or less, including a handful of estrogel dispensers that I can't use and don't know what to do with + a separate prepper stash, just in case!
My mirror is broken, it usually throws punches instead of hugs...
(I'm working on it)
If you can afford it, it sounds like going to a therapist to unravel your feelings and possible trauma could be worth it. A good one will not tell you if you are trans, just help you along the way. If you can't then some lgbt groups offer help to questioning people too.
You don't have to rush it just because the vial might expire. Do it on your own time, experiment with other things (thought experiments, clothes...) if jumping to hormones is too much. Remember that it's not a magic juice that instantly turns you girly, you can always stop if you feel weird on it.
Also, do you trust her this much? I'm a trans woman on DIY but I'm getting mine from a source I've seen other buy from and talk good about. You also need to spend some time researching doses and what blood tests to do first too.
People here are apparently either foss neckbeards or transfems/femboys, and they are all valid.
Trans dev here, I hear that hacker spaces aren't bad places to look. I wouldn't know though, too shy to actually show up -.-
But you should probably touch it before all the dependencies are outdated. And before everyone who understands how to work with it has left. Especially if it happens to be core to the business.
