Hot Hot Hot.  (not me, the weather hahaha). I haven't worn this top in almost 7 months. I forgot how much I like it.  Broke out some big hoops too.  I realized when I got to work why I haven't worn them in a while....what a pain in the ass with masks that go over your ears.  

@MaddeeI love that top you're wearing.  You look great!

@Linda Marieas always- pure class.

 

I'm with all of you on the whole "fitting in". I like to wear nicer clothes and show a little style but not trying to shock anyone with who I am.

I agree with that wholeheartedly .

Can you stand out, and fit in, at the same time?

Maddee, I think the answer is a resounding yes!  I always try to stand out while fitting in.  I think the tactic will be different for everyone, but the end result is the same.  I fit in by dressing and behaving appropriately, but I try to stand out by showcasing my femininity.  I tend to go for dressier outfits with feminine flair.

Today I'm wearing a nice flower print dress. I really wanted to take pictures outside in our garden but weather

is not cooperating.

Love the dress @Linda Marie

I made a tie dye t-shirt last night so had to wear that and some NYDJ shorts I found at the thrift store (what a deal, normally $70 new for $5!).   More importantly but not visible, I went to Victoria Secrets to see if there was a solution to a natural fitting bra for 38A.  They said that size isn't made by anyone really for off the rack BUT, 36 B is the same size cup which is made and you just put a hook extender to get the width so I now have a VS push up bra that actually fits!!!

It only has a little padding so it feels like it's mostly me and not "fake".

Had to go get some blood drawn today.  It's an hour drive up there.  But they also have a goodwill outlet store up there.  That's where you buy stuff and pay by the pound.  A lot of my stuff has come from there.

Got this skirt today.

A year ago (or more) I was in the habit of going into town on Saturdays to just hang out maybe have a beer, etc.  Now I've had my shots, and things are starting to open up a little here in NC, so I made it into town today.

Stopped at the bookstore and picked up a book. A little embarrassed, I told the lady I had developed a taste for trashy romance novels.  Turned out she was an enthusiast also - heh heh. 

Then I went uptown and stopped in at one of my old haunts and had a couple beers.  

It was really nice to be getting back in circulation.  Man I missed it.

A fan of romance novels too.

Used to read pirate based stories where the girl falls in love with the dreaded pirate. Cowboy/old west based ones as well a Victorian era.

Half Price books is where I used all that stuff even dated a guy that I met there.

Guilty. Though I prefer them with a little adventure. And lesbians. Love me some well-written lesbian romance novels.

 

Hugs!

I recently read "Written in the Stars" by Alexandria Bellefleur. Loved it. I'm starting to think the only reason I never used to be into romance stories is because so many of them involve a guy as half of the couple!

Actually, I've had it for years.  I was just afraid to let anyone know.   I was pretty transphobic in those days.

I can deal with that, but it's really not my favorite. They don't even have to be explicit. Just a nod to actual romance and maybe alluding to, "Yes, this couple has sex but you don't need to see it," and I'm fine.

 

Hugs!

Hi folks,

 

I've been out of the loop again for a while. Picked up a new skirt and top which I wore today. Forgive the beard, but I take a break from shaving on my days off and I haven't had the opportunity to start electrolysis yet.

 

Pictures also taken at different times of the day. ?

Had lunch with my wife and in-laws. My wife insisted I dress more masculine for the occasion. I chose this outfit and she was happy with it. I was still able to wear some makeup and carried my purse.

      Worry refers to the thoughts, images, emotions, and actions of a negative nature in a repetitive, uncontrollable manner that results from a proactive cognitive risk analysis made to avoid or solve anticipated potential threats and their potential consequences.

      Good morning    Now @Abigail Genevieve and @Mmindy what makes you so certain I didn’t mean it to say bee itch certificate?  lol. Thanks Mindy. I was asleep when you saw this and fixed it, and yes Abigail, as a moderator I could have fixed it myself, or weren’t you pointing out the irony of that?   I use Alexis as my alarm to get up.  And I set the ringer to be two guys telling me to get up.  I was so sound asleep when they started telling me to get up that it scared me and my first thought were I had over slept.  Since I have a difficult time getting to sleep as early as I have to in order to get enough sleep I at least cut back my normal awake time to get ready.  But now I have to do my hair and get going.   enjoyed my coffee and a little time catching up   see you all later, for its hi ho hi ho it’s off to work I go.   Willow

      Republicans have long committed grave errors by emphasizing their social agenda and moral issues instead of just focusing on the economy, lowering taxes, keeping the public safe, building a strong national defense, promoting business, touting reasonable immigration policies, etc.   The country would thrive economically under Trump's tax and business policies. That's a fact. Another four years of Biden will run this country into the ground financially (including all of our 401Ks and IRAs). But the GOP continues to play right into the Dems' hands by leading with their moral crusades instead of staying the course and trusting their fiscal policies to win the day...

      Thanks.  I will look those up in the document, hopefully tomorrow.   I always look at the source on stuff like this, not what someone, particularly those adversarial, have to say.

      LGBTQ rights Project 2025 takes extreme positions against LGBTQ rights, seeking to eliminate federal protections for queer people and pursue research into conversion therapies in order to encourage gender and sexuality conformity. The policy book also lays out plans to criminalize being transgender and prohibit federal programs from supporting queer people through various policies. The project partnered with anti-LGBTQ groups the Family Policy Alliance, the Center for Family and Human Rights, and the Family Research Council. Project 2025 calls for the next secretary of Health and Human Services to “immediately put an end to the department’s foray into woke transgender activism,” which includes removing terms related to gender and sexual identity from “every federal rule, agency regulation, contract, grant, regulation, and piece of legislation that exists.” The Trump administration proposed a similar idea in 2018 that would have resulted in trans people losing protections under anti-discrimination laws. [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; The New Republic, 2/8/24] Similarly, the policy book calls for HHS to stop all research related to gender identity unless the purpose is conformity to one's sex assigned at birth. The New Republic explains: “That is, research on gender-nonconforming children and teenagers should be funded by the government, but only for the purpose of studying what will make them conform, such as denying them gender-affirming care and instead trying to change their identities through ‘counseling,’ which is a form of conversion therapy.” [The New Republic, 2/8/24] The policy book’s foreword by Kevin Roberts describes “the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children” as “pornography” that “should be outlawed,” adding, “The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned.” Roberts also says that “educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Roberts’ foreword states that “allowing parents or physicians to ‘reassign’ the sex of a minor is child abuse and must end.” Echoing ongoing right-wing attacks on trans athletes, Roberts also claims, “Bureaucrats at the Department of Justice force school districts to undermine girls’ sports and parents’ rights to satisfy transgender extremists.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; TIME magazine, 5/16/22] Dame Magazine reports that Project 2025 plans to use the Department of Justice to crack down on states that “do not charge LGBTQ people and their allies with crimes under the pretense that they are breaking federal and state laws against exposing minors to pornography.” [Dame Magazine, 8/14/23] Project 2025 also calls for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to repeat “its 2016 decision that CMS could not issue a National Coverage Determination (NCD) regarding ‘gender reassignment surgery’ for Medicare beneficiaries.” The policy book’s HHS chapter continues: “In doing so, CMS should acknowledge the growing body of evidence that such interventions are dangerous and acknowledge that there is insufficient scientific evidence to support such coverage in state plans.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Going further, Project 2025 also demands that the next GOP administration “reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military.” The policy book’s chapter on the Defense Department claims: “Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service, and the use of public monies for transgender surgeries … for servicemembers should be ended.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023]   …summaries of what’s within the rest of the document re: LGBTQ+ concerns. A person can believe their gender is fixed but incongruent with their physiology, but the authors and Trump (by his own words) just see the incongruity of an “expressed gender” that conflicts with what was/is in a person’s pants.
