unfortunately laser hair removal is way more expensive than I have the spare cash flow for. really hoping the Sphynx comes through and is reasonably simple to learn to use.

I've tried this technique, just ends up double-irritating my skin. so far the closest shave with the least irritation is actually using a women's multi-blade razor (not men's, no clue why).

it's still not ideal, though. I'll have to try the makeup-over-stubble thing some time, maybe that'll at least help visually!

yep, those are just ingrown hair machines.

cw: facial hair dysphoriamy hatred for shaving and my hatred for hair on my face are in a constant tug-of-war. I've been trying to be okay with having a stubble beard sometimes, but I hate that it gets me automatically read as a man.

learning to accept the masculine physical traits that I have and cannot change is difficult in general, but facial hair is extra hard because I can sorta change it... if I spend hours every week sliding a razor across my face and don't mind constant skin irritation on my face and neck.

I have never seen Mark Hamill looking worse than in this pic.

and that's including when he was getting weird blue milk out of an alien creature.

tights under shorts is a great idea, I should mess with that.

also skirts are weird. I have a few that I wear on very specific occasions, but they're not the vibe like 95% of the time. leggings and tights, on the other hand? absolutely adore them.

Don't worry, if you openly protest genocide, you will NOT be sent to a freedom camp. This is merely a dissident rumor.

I thought about what would have happened if protesters were instead chanting anti-Black slogans, or even something like “D.E.I. has got to die,” to the same “Sound Off” tune that “From the river to the sea” has been adapted to. They would have lasted roughly five minutes before masses of students shouted them down and drove them off the campus. Chants like that would have been condemned as a grave rupture of civilized exchange, heralded as threatening resegregation and branded as a form of violence. I’d wager that most of the student protesters against the Gaza War would view them that way, in fact. Why do so many people think that weekslong campus protests against not just the war in Gaza but Israel’s very existence are nevertheless permissible?

because Isn'trael is an apartheid colonial proxy state committing genocide against Palestinians as we speak, you literal shit-for-brains. no professor should be able to write a paragraph like that, ending in a question like that, and not sit there for a few minutes and rethink their entire existence to that point.
