A cordless drill and a long drill bit would have been quicker and more effective.

I don't know who posted about the comic "Us" a few days ago. I think it was @ashinadash@hexbear.net. cat-trans

Anyway, thanks for making me aware of it. I finished it this morning. It's sooooo cute and sooooo good. Also my husband started reading it yesterday. There are a few panels that honestly could have been written by him, about him. Especially the whole part about wrestling with ones sexuality and eventually landing on demisexual.

The day has finally arrived. I'll have to leave soon since it's almost two hours by car to get there. Even with the distance, I'm still incredibly grateful to hav a clinic like this close enough to drive to.

spoilerI don't know if it's off label(I think my IPL says don't use it down there), but I've had great success with an IPL in those areas. I also suck at a using razors, and they always make me break out horribly. So I've been using a one blade and wahl shaver shaper to keep things under control. The combo of shaving and IPL has been extremely effective.

I absolutely suck with actual razors and they always make me break out. So I've been using a one blade for the long stuff, followed by a "wahl five star shaver shaper" and the combo gets me nearly razor smooth. Which is good enough for me. Combine that with the IPL and it's very effective. I do however have the benefit that I simply do not grow much body hair.

When will this board be available for trials? I'm so fricken excited to try it out. My soldering skills are amateur at best but I have an ok iron (pinecil) and the will to give it a shot.

I'm still around. I read everything, I'm just usually pretty anxious about posting. But I'm working through it.

I'm pretty lucky to have it. It's not exactly close, but it's better than any of the alternatives. It just takes a loooooong time to get an appointment since they are a pretty small clinic, and they vet their calls heavily. It took 3 months to get a response, and then another 6 weeks for the soonest appointment. But the wait is nearly over.

I should post more often. I still have unbearable posting anxiety so maybe if I challenge myself to make one post a day here, I'll actually follow through. My therapist wants me to journal more and this counts, right?

In other news, I go to the HRT Dr in 48 hours. It's a bit of a drive from my house, but it's a trans/NB owned clinic that employs nothing but trans/NB people. It's taken 4 months to get an appointment, but the day is nearly here. bridget-vibe

Well that's disappointing. Thanks for the feedback. I don't think I'll be wasting my time with it yet. I'll just keep playing dirt 2 and give them some time to work it out.

I have a 3080 also, so let me know how it runs.

I don't think it has VR support yet? I picked it up a few months ago and returned it when I realized it didn't have VR support.
