ngl.link/eliacugini

severance by ling ma -> movie

nice try buster 😤

ohhh such a good question. for a particular type of transness: bear by marian engel. the seaplane on final approach. solaris. anything by melissa broder, susanna clarke, or the brontë sisters.

i’ve been obsessed w greta and valdin and love me tender lately. also just started wild geese which i’m rly enjoying

some of you have so little imagination 🙄

tbh i sort of do what i want and deal w the aftermath after lol. i have various forms of insulation being a guy + being as well loved as i am, and it’s hard, but it helps that i used to be so miserable w how i was perceived and now i’m much closer to what i want to be

thx for asking! it’s not too deep tbh, if you’re not arguing w terfs and rt’ing transphobia you’re probs doing good. also ig it’s good to see cis people not only engaging w transphobia and trans crisis, being in community w us and our work, yknow

i took all souls in 2021 and i wrote abt the inherent transfemininity of robots so probably that

only you can rly make that call - if i were you i’d probably talk to him just bc there’s a pretty high chance Someone will see it and tell your parents, but you can be selective abt what you tell

i found reading novels & memoirs & self help books can go a certain way but honestly nothing touched taking t. idk your sitch but if you’re not on hrt i would very much consider trying it. you can easily stop taking it if it’s not for you and it was so clarifying

like honestly i don’t even rly care abt being nonbinary or ‘binary’ trans anymore, i felt a pull towards wanting to materially change my body and i did so and it’s ruled. if you are on hrt, then it’s all a more philosophical exercise imo lol

anything involving using ‘female socialised’ like a catchall

she’s nice and fun. pretty much like tv

thank youu that’s rly lovely to hear as i sniffle in my bed lmfao

tbh everything kinda fell into place w me in may last year! in like jan 2022 i was overworked and underpaid, felt academically useless, wasn’t dating, commissions were slow, hrt hadn’t kicked in yet

then i got a phd scholarship a girlfriend and a big commission within like 3 weeks of each other. a lot of groundwork all came together at once. in general i’m doing well bc i’m loved and fulfilled and receiving gender affirming care!!
