The Stages Of Not Going On T

ID of text: Oh, I don't want to go on T. That's not what this is. I can see where you got the idea, I suppose, but I'm afraid hormones simply aren't for me. I don't even want the ones I have! I'll never go on testosterone, but it's simply wonderful for you. You look great. Better than ever, honestly. If I were stuck in a room for the rest of my life and could only look at one thing for some reason, it would be you (I hope that's not weird to say), but that's really not the same thing. I just want you to go on hormones and for me to be able to watch you do it. And if you ever wanted to share the occasional update, like just a few day-by- day updates on how you're doing, maybe just a daily journal about what T is doing for you, what affects you're noticing, that sort of thing, that I could read or watch or otherwise follow along from the comfort of home, where I'm not on hormones, that would be ideal. But that's it for me! /end ID
ID of text: I'm not even sure I want hormones. I'm pretty sure I don't want them, because I think about going on hormones all the time, and those thoughts always end on some variation of "I can't, not ever," and if I really wanted to try hormones obviously I wouldn't keep thinking about how I can't try them. I think about them all the time and have to constantly stop myself, so I must really not want them. You know how when you're profoundly curious and sick with longing about something, it usually passes pretty quickly. It's an idle fixation brought on by boredom, easily confused with legitimate desire. Don't worry, lots of people confuse the two. And it doesn't help, seeing all those attractively powerful trans people getting into their stretch limousines and then going on the news to promote hormone therapy as a universal panacea for solving all your problems. Happens all the time, and frankly I'm sick of it. /end ID
ID of text: If someone were to drop a little bit of leftover testosterone on the ground, and I couldn't find the owner and there weren't any trans people around, and it was about to go bad, I would probably take it, in the interest of preventing waste. That would just be sensible. Stand to reason. If for some reason I were forced to take testosterone I don't - know why someone would, but it might happen - I would of course make the best of a bad situation and comply with good cheer. There's no point in complaining, when someone comes to your house and forces you to take testosterone. I'd be remarkably sanguine about the whole thing, a model of radical acceptance. These things happen sometimes, for any number of reasons. One reads about it. Yes, I'm quite prepared to be forced to take hormones, if it ever comes to that, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. /end ID

Have to provide a map for the scale of it. In my city there were 6 massive train stations in the early 20th Century. Now there’s 2.

Have To Provide A Map For The Scale Of It. In My City There Were 6 Massive Train Stations In The Early

Even when passenger trains are used at the moment, railways aren’t necessarily owned by the government so freight takes priority over passengers.

So do people realize that we aren't building new train tracks when we expand the amteak network, I have multiple times seen people say that we shouldn't expand the network because it would destroy protected lands, which would be a fair criticism but Amtrak doesn't build new tracks, we use existing tracks. We are not destroying protected lands, we are using land that has already been clear for a century

[images ID: three images of a comic titled "one must imagine sisyphus happy" by druid-for-hire. it is a visual narrative beginning with someone with wrist pain (depicted by bright orange nerves) working at a drafting table. the reader is shown the same wrist as the person uses it for many everyday tasks such as carrying a grocery basket, pushing elevator buttons, typing, and doing dishes, until the pain dissolves all the panels into chaos. the person then performs several physical therapy exercises until the pain subsides. they sit back down at a desk with their laptop, sigh, and begin typing. a small spark of pain reappears. end id]

a fun little piece i made during the semester and submitted into our school comic anthology! (which you can buy at the Static Fish table at MoCCAFest in NYC ;] ). it's about artists and injury
