  1. Hello all! I go by Max or by my username electricblue. Pronouns are he/him. I'm Black, aroace, and trans. New to the Fediverse so please be kind 😅

    Hobbies and other interests:
    - Kandi (though I've only made singles so far. I want to learn how to make a cuff next!)
    - Photography (very casually and exclusively with an old digicam right now)
    - Journaling
    - Poetry
    - Queer (especially aroace) theory
    - Indie web
    - Old tech (mostly 90's and 00's)
    - Zine making

    I have a personal site to talk about being Black, aroace, and general queer and life things! I'm new to HTML and CSS and just started it, so there's not much yet.

  2. Look, I'm not saying I'm doing super duper great but I have been allowed to take the compression velcro wrap off a day early because I was losing my mind and kept suffocating in my sleep despite CPAP. Now I'm down to the compression vest that was below and while that still digs into the same spots where my skin is raw and my ribs are bruised, I can breathe and eat and sit and I even took a nap after it was off, bringing the hours I slept since last night to a very impressive three 😂 I can sit in the garden, watch the dogs play and bother our friend while he's trying to work, listen to the wind in the trees and drink my drinks without the constant pain of compression digging into my ribs. I even had a fucking sandwich!

    Now that the velcro wrap is off, the pain on my incisions is a bit higher but not too bad. Ribs and skin are sore but have started to heal. Drain sites are still surprisingly painful and tender. The seroma we think I got last night seems to have started to drain by itself. And my pecs stopped spasming when I stopped getting the stretchies once the wrap was off.

    I dare to hope the worst pain might be behind me. Tomorrow we get to see how my nipples have fared through all this. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 I noticed my chest is a bit numb on the right side when I reached under the vest to reposition it but it didn't feel like it was completely numb so that bodes well. I also keep getting zaps still so I'm hoping for at least some sensation being regained down the road.

  3. CW: Menstruation talk and med update.

    RE: lgbtqia.space/@aceofcosmicspac

    Further update on this. Now in the heaviest time of my flow, where I usually flood a super tampon and pads within an hour or less, while laying down thanks to my PCOS.

    Currently on the meds, I'm managing to last 2 hours while sitting up. It's not brilliant, but it's something, and hoping by tomorrow morning or lunch time when I'm discharged from hospital, things might be light enough to be able to go home without worrying about flooding while I'm in an Uber(I do not want to have to put myself to an Uber driver and pay for the cleaning of their car😅)Prayers, positive thoughts and spells, and good vibes for lessening of flow even more, please friends!

  4. PLEASE BOOST. Urgent question. Has anyone taken transexamic acid before to lessen excessive menstrual bleeding? How effective is it, and when should it be taken? At the start of a period or just when it gets heavy? (For context I'm a trans man with PCOS. My period has just started, and I have been given a script to fill for this so I hopefully can get to my surgery tomorrow- usually my period gets so heavy I flood super pads and tampons within an hour while lying down).

  8. You'd hardly believe this is Spain in August 😆 a bit of rain—earlier this morning, not even now—has driven all but the wetsuited serious swimmers away, and I pretty much had the beach to myself. 🤩 Amazing last swim with tape. Next two weeks I have to either brave it in a binder or sports bra or just skip swimming entirely. We'll see. But right now, all that matters is that one perfect swim. 🥰

  9. #TransMusicMonday

    Artist: Rodeo Boys (Tiff Haney, lead vocals, they/them)

    Why?
    The Rodeo Boys sound like midwest Emo with a bit of country drawl and twang mixed in, and lyrics that frequently remind me of Kurt Cobain and Nirvana. They describe their sound as "queer rock", and it hits me in the feels as a queer millennial who grew up in the midwest listening to the same kinds of radio stations as they all did.

    Where to start?
    "All American Man" is a great intro to their sound. I remember watching them perform it on stage and finding myself feeling like a teen fangirl making heart eyes at Tiff, the lead singer.

    I would be remiss to not mention they put on clown face for the "Feel the Same" music video...what can I say, I got a thing for clowns...

    Lastly, one of my favorites of theirs is "Cowgirl in the Dark," which was inspired by Pamela Anderson, and not only the ways she was adored but also the ways she was mistreated by our society.

  10. Still on my soapbox about “Butch” being a purely working class identity by wearing my warehouse clothes, flat cap, and a slutty t-shirt to The Roundup.
