Wish I could say I look forward to his post getting taken down, but, well...you know

We need more mods who give a shit

That would be nice

I know you'd have my back too, don't sweat it. We should probably make a habit of ducking outta threads when AT posts tho since it tends to burn us. His posts are really easy for me to actually get angry at and I assume the same goes for you

Mod note from a NWD I just got, same thread

Generalizing others by calling them Lunatics is not acceptable. A topic like abortion will naturally lead to some heated exchanges, as it's considered a core ethos to many people. Thinking differently from you does not make them a lunatic. It's fine to debate the morality of it, but please don't disrespect or generalize others in the process.

It's annoying when mods don't read threads for context

So when I look at my face in the mirror, and I put a mask on, and my eyes/lashes are done up and hair is freshly straightened, I can kind of see the form that I'm aiming for. Then I remember my big ol' schnoz and my guybrows. I really need to learn eyebrows next

That sinking feeling when you're enjoying how you look then you remember how you really look. Ugh

Hey, look at it this way: You work on that top half of your face and you could probably pass while you're out and about RIGHT NOW. It's winter and bulky coats hide a lot of a person's figure.

I'm okay at eyebrows and I think mine have a decent shape on their own, but I feel like I'd get them tinted or microbladed if I really wanted to take them to the next level.

FWIW I started liking my nose more after hormones. It's still not as cute as I'd like and I'll probably get a nose job at some point, but eh. I don't fuss with my eyebrows much. I should but I'm a bit lazy in that department. Also not a fan of most modern eyebrow styles such as shaving them away and getting a tattoo.

You're right in that, the thought did cross my mind. I just jump straight to "ugh but what about when masks aren't common"

Gotta get outta these old pessimistic ways

I keep thinking I'm gonna have to get rhino too >_>

I considered hormones might alter my face slightly but I tell you, I got quite the big ol' schnoz. Big ol' italian schnoz

As for eyebrows, I just want to fix the spacing and trim them down a bit. I'm like, pretty swarthy I guess so they can make me look like a neanderthal

You'll have made quite a bit of progress by then I'd think! (tbh masks will probably be very common for at LEAST until this fall)

You're right of course. I've got time, there's no rush. I'm just so impatient I wish it could be overnight! Trying to temper my expectations

It's all pretty exciting nonetheless

I think it's really cool that you're doing this, TC. If more people would be true to themselves and choose to be happy, even if some stupid people would frown upon it, the world would be a better place.

dont die im going to sleep

god i'm so bitchy today. i think because woke up late, hungover, and havent eaten yet

some dude i dont recognize absolutely went off on me for thinking sex is disgusting and how weird i am that i dont understand it

ngl it pissed me off. like where have you been, and where do you get off trudging up personal ancient history. he just completely misunderstood my prior post in the topic and went off like an ignoramus. annoying

I once had someone yell at me on the FE:3H boards because they recognized me from another topic. Sometimes it happens. Nothing much worth worrying about at any rate.

Idk maybe undeserved it. It was the magicdonut thread but I really don't see how I was coming off that way

Alright I'm noticing diminishing returns on mah booty. I know it's only been like 2 and a half months but still. I'll take any good glute exercises recs, gonna do some studying up after work too
