Doc Impossible is 🐘[email protected]🐘

Hey, Yall. Dropping in to add that I'm trying out Bluesky, and it seems pretty all right. If/when you get on there, my Bluesky is impossiblephd@bsky.social. Come find me!

Finally, I'm not deleting the account itself because I don't want someone else to pick up the handle and do god-knows-what with it. It's very, very unlikely I'll ever be back. Thank you all. The community here was wonderful.

If you want to know why I left and deleted my old posts, Popehat has a phenomenal encapsulation of how I feel here: popehat.substack.com/p/goodbye-twit… Musk has a right to do what he wants. I have a right to say it makes him a scumbag, and that I won't support his business anymore.

I've left Twitter because I refuse to support what it has become. If you're looking for me: Stainedglasswoman.substack.com is where my big Twitter threads are archived, as well as loads of other stuff Impossible_PhD@tech.lgbt is me on Mastodon /u/Impossible_PhD is me on Reddit

@goblinthot1 @thepurpledev @synthdyke Meanwhile, I've been playing with power tools in pretty dresses for the last two days running. 🤣

@thepurpledev @goblinthot1 @synthdyke Hey, you know what they say--skirt go spinny, pant go pocket!

@Impossible_PhD @goblinthot1 @synthdyke In my case, non binary trans masc, and I want the complete intersection 😂

@goblinthot1 @thepurpledev @synthdyke They sell those on Amazon, you know. I've got yoga shorts with like 4 pockets, two of which have zippers.

@thepurpledev @goblinthot1 @synthdyke I mean, more options are always good. And I'm biiiiig on skirts with pockets. But pretty over functional any day. God, I'm well and truly down the rabbit-hole now, aren't I?

@goblinthot1 @Impossible_PhD @synthdyke What we need is really cute patterns like women's clothes with the practicalities of men's clothes

@tamparsenalfan It's never too late! Amazing!

What a difference a year of HRT can make

@emaraven11 Well... You're not wrong.

@reallifecomics That... That was one of the most meta jokes I've ever seen. Wow.

@NewMichelle2020 Hi, hon! Thing Explainer here. I'm happy to talk you through whatever you're wondering about.

@TinyEdgedancer @definity @jhessdna In fairness, having the group up and running to prove that it works might be what other couples need.

@definity @CalaerielLittle @maegodhavemercy YESSSSS! Grieving is so important, so good, so healing. Grief denied is pain magnified. You have to engage with it to grow from it.

@CalaerielLittle @Impossible_PhD @maegodhavemercy Ooh you hit my favorite soapbox, which is the definition of grief and its importance (and health!) as a process. To be clear: Most trans people I know even have grief! It doesn’t mean you don’t change. It means you reflect on what is leaving to allow what is coming.

@maegodhavemercy and I are thinking about starting a YT channel to discuss how to navigate existing relationships when someone comes out as transgender. We have several ideas, but what would you folks like to see if we move forward? I know I could have used a resource like this.

@CalaerielLittle @maegodhavemercy True that. We know that gender can be fluid, so it stands to reason that sexuality can be too. Introspection should be a normal part of life, *especially* when the questions are uncomfortable. Too much harm comes from ignorance.

@Impossible_PhD @maegodhavemercy We need to start a dialogue about checking in on gender and sexuality in general.
