This song was mentioned by my soon to be former friend Lizzy (just joking but she did plant this song in my mind after nearly ten years without having heard it) in a topic about what's stuck in your head right now.

The song is the much feared Disney song, "It's a Small World" - which was banned for questioning in Gitmo for the more humane water boarding means of breaking terrorists.

Now for a way to test your resolve - you know whats ahead but how far can you go.

This is for you Lizzy - nearly 10 minutes of it!

And a bonus annoying song with the perfect name! (only about a minute and a half of this one)

Let's see if you are made of the right stuff.

Love ya,

Sally

Wow, Eth!

You are amazing!

You are my friend and I do love you.

You had the option to skip this or to bail out, but you were up to the challenge and in a few days will probably be able to carry on a normal conversation.

Love ya,

Sally

I'm glad that I brought back a fond memory - Sheri Lewis was a great entertainer and I loved her from a very early age when Lamb Chop was very new - I will miss her but thanks to that TV series a lot of her work will live on.

Love ya,

AW MAN, I CAN DO IT! AND I CAN DANCE TO IT TOO. I DON'T HATE THAT SONG AT ALLLLLLL. IT MAKES ME THINK I'M A LITTLE GERMAN BOY IN SUSPENDERS AND A FEATHER HAT, THROWING ROCKS AT MICKEY OR SOMETHING. Good times.

I think the only song that could break me would be Buono's "Kokoro no Tamago" or um... almost anything by Hello!Project on repeat for too long >A<

Oh Eth, you are new aren't you?

I have to admit that the ride was nice, the 'children of all nations' are cute and everyone and everything is smiling but I just can't take one song for the whole ride and the line outside and down the sidewalk - bit I liked the peaceful little boat ride.

April the next time you go to Disneyland, ride the Small World and enjoy it, just knowing that you like it takes the sting out of the repetition.

I probably would have enjoyed t more if I hadn't been hearing the song for well over 45 minutes before getting on.

Love ya,

Sally

Disneyland is the definition of long lines :) But that line actually goes pretty fast, so you must have been there on a really crowded day.

Every tented line was crowded in that storm!

I was in Disney World in Florida and they have rain like here really hard for a short burst!

I don't know if I ever mentioned this but I went to Disneyland in 1956 - the second summer that it was open I believe so things out there have changed quite a bit I suppose - there was no Small World ride, but there was a rocket ship in Future land and you sat in seats that vibrated and looked up to a circular screen forward and down to one looking aft. It was fun and then we were introduced to the pricing of the future - $.90 cents for a hamburger!

They were $.15 across the street at McDonald's (the first one of those I had ever seen) no dinning room just a walk up window with burgers, cheeseburgers fries and drinks - what a menu!

Only $.50 in any café or Big Boy Restaurants.

I am old! :(

But enjoy all of the rides they are designed for the young and the young at heart.

Love ya,

Sally

The first song looks like and sounds like something you would find in a bad acid trip. The second song was not to bad because I watched that show when I was younger.

You people don't know the definition of pain. Listen to the mudkips for about ten minutes. If you aren't batcrap insane by the end then you have no brain or soul. Here, I'll even link you to it:

It's a Small World's got NOTHING on that.

I don't get why the first one is really bad. I actually enjoyed all the almost ten minutes of it. The second one I purposely sing to annoy people sometimes. SomI could listen to the whole thing. Specially since the woman's reactions was funny.

The mudkip thing, I listened to the whole thing but my mom told me to listen to it with my headphones on after two minutes.

This is not a very good sign for my sanity is it?

      When I first started figuring things out, I got a lot more euphoria. Every time a friend would use he/they pronouns for me, I'd get this bubbly feeling, and seeing myself look masculine made me really happy. Dysphoric state felt more normal, so I guess I noticed the pain it caused me less.   Now, it's more just that my pronouns and such things feel natural, and dysphoria is a lot stronger -- I know what's natural, so experiencing the opposite is more jarring than everything. The problem is, most of my natural experiences are from friends, and I rarely get properly gendered by strangers, much less by my family. I've found myself unable to bind in months due to aches, colds,, and not wanting to risk damage.    It partially makes me want to go back to the beginning of my journey, because at least then I got full euphoria. I'm pretty sure it'll be like this until I medically transition, or at the very least get top surgery (you know all those trans dudes online with tiny chests? Not me, unfortunately). It's a bit depressing, but at least I know that, eventually, there's a way out of this.
    • RaineOnYourParade
      Major mood, right here ^^^    I've listened to Lumineers to a long time (a major portion of it by osmosis via my mom), so that is almost painfully relatable
    • RaineOnYourParade
      As for getting a button-up/formal pants suit, you can try to talk to her more -- Cis women in tuxes have worn tuxes in recent years, after all, (for example, Zendaya) so it can still be a relatively safe topic. For jumpsuits, I'd recommend going with a simple one with a blazer, if you can -- this'll make it look overall more masculine. There's a lot of good brands, but going for one without a lot of extra glitz on it will make it look less feminine under a blazer. I don't know many specific brands though since I usually just get my stuff from chain stores, sorry :<   When it comes to your hair, if you can't cut it, you can look up tutorials on fluffing it up instead. If you can pull it off, it can look a lot shorter and more androgynous instead!
    • RaineOnYourParade
      As far as I'm aware, he wasn't -- he just sometimes wore skirts, which was why it was a question in the first place.   In my opinion, part of that is because of the way press spares attention on issues like that. As a bit of a true crime nut and what I see: Child predator cases' (and cases of a sexual nature in general) press focus on those with an AMAB perpetrator generally, and very rarely are AFAB perpetrators given much press time or even getting tried due to a whole bunch of issues I'm not gonna get into. Because of this, when you see these types of cases and a boy is the victim, it's almost always a queer person who is the one who committed a crime that gets press. Therefore, with the amount of cases seen with this type of perpetrator (and due to the fact "99% of queer people are not sexual criminals" doesn't attract eyes), the human brain can kind of naturally makes an association with it. It's not right, but it's also a fault I think falls partially on the media.   That's all my opinion, though!   This is extra confusing to me, as a feminine man is usually viewed as gay. If someone is refusing the acknowledge the existence of trans people, then gay would be the societal connection that comes after, I think. So, that sorta implies that trans women wouldn't be interested in women in the first place by those assumptions? Of course, trans lesbians exist (most trans women I know like women, actually), but it's a little ridiculous to me that people will deny trans people's existence, call all feminine AMAB people gay, and say that trans people are looking to peep all in the same breath.   Wow, this was a lot longer of a response than I was planning to write--

      For one thing, the practice of putting into office wholly unqualified people simply because of racial, sexual or national characteristics.  It is no accident that Karine is a Haitian immigrant, Black and lesbian.  Kamala Harris is a Black female. Pete Buttigieg is gay.  Often you find that Biden explicitly stated that this is why he hired them, not because of competence, but because they checked so many boxes on his little list.  It makes a mockery of people and is a disservice to the US.

      I am not sure why people are in favor of unaccountable agencies with bloated budgets and wasteful spending.

      Hey girl  I had a problem like you happen to me also. In my first year of estrogen I had a period where my level were good then they got really bad where my testosterone spike high.  I felt like you with all that disforia coming hard. Our bodies need time to adjust. The process is a real pain in the beginning. It levels out eventually and you don't even think about it. Hang in there hugs

      Biden's woke agenda?

      I wonder if there will be law enforcement procedural shows coming this fall. I can imagine Law and Order: Genital Crimes Unit, or perhaps, FBI: Domestic Genitalia. Then again, maybe they will dedicate a CSI program about the dedicated members of the Oklahoma State Police Genital Screening Unit. Good to know that those Oklahomans have their priorities squared away.
    • KatieSC
      Protections? Well, when they mandate that some who is transgender can get facial and genital electrolysis paid as it is essential to affirming care, or when they mandate and pay for facial feminization surgery, speech therapy/voice affirmation surgery, I will believe that the order is effective. One of biggest hurdles for many transgender individuals is the cost of care. I remember when my one insurance company tried to say that my speech therapy and voice surgery were "cosmetic". I remember when they blocked paying for my facial surgery. I remember the fight I had to get electrolysis. These procedures could save someone's life if the procedures help the individual successfully transition, and are no longer misgendered.

      I don't think it should be.  Nor do I see Project 2025 as pushing Christian nationalism.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      The agencies are supposed to work for him.  The problem, as conservatives found out in Trump 1, was they will ignore the president and do their own thing.  The agencies are supposed to be under his control.   Congress delegated some of its law making authority to the agencies, which is another problem.   The bloated federal government needs to be trimmed.  Dept Education is worthless - test scores have dropped since it was instituted in the Carter administration consistently, and it is currently implementing Biden's woke agenda more than doing anything else.

      I hope to eventually wear a suit for dance but don't know what exactly to look for. I feel like jumpsuit is safe option but I have been interested in wearing button up and formal pants. Is there a certain brand i should look for or sites I should look at for tips? My mom is not exactly keen on me wearing too masc clothing like suits just yet but is okay with jumpsuits. Also is there hair styling tips availible, my hair looks like image below. I might be able to get shorter haircut like pixie but am not sure yet.

      It’s never been about him, but he is the Presidential nominee for the Presidency that starts in…2025. I don’t see a lot of conflation that this is a “Trump doctrine”, it a doctrine that benefits him surely, but it is a plan to instill crony governance and enact very Christian conservative (if not purely Christian nationalist) “order” on the country. If you don’t see this as the Right doubling down on Big G government, I don’t know what to tell them. Getting rid of agencies and giving the authority directly to the Executive isn’t shrinking government. It’s consolidation power.
