Just throwing this out there, spurred by recent discussions.

Hi. I’m Jaxen. I’m trans, FTM.

I’m also relatively “old” by trans timeline standards — been at this gender stuff since 2005 when I was 23. On T since then. Top surgery 2006. Hysto 2010.

— Curious about coming out, trans rights, trans support, and trans healthcare “back in my day”?

— Curious about what it’s like a decade+ on T?

Hello sleepy types! At this point, our instance is 3/4 full. In order to accommodate more people now that Tumblr is kaput, I'll need to bump up my hosting plan.

Thank you for being a part of this instance! Y'all are great!

Okay! #Introductions? Here's an #introduction.

Middle aged #transgender man. #Homoromantic #asexual married to a #gay cis guy.

#ADHD and learning how to deal with it. Also #depression. Treated for both.

#Furry, have a #fursuit of my #fursona: a #beaver! I always hit #Megaplex & #FWA, and sometimes #Anthrocon & #MFF.

I make #art sometimes, mostly #digital and furry.

Other interests: #fish #reptiles #mydog #gamegrumps #ninjasexparty #finalfantasy #singing #terraria

Android users: What is your preferred Mastodon app?

Admin Stuff: Trending hashtags have been enabled. I’m letting all hashtags sail through without review, but if you see one that is objectionable, please let me know!

Okay, I fixed it! It involves deleting the emote and reuploading it with a new shortname. Pretty annoying. I'd love it if the shortnames could be edited from within the admin UI.

POLL TIME!

Residents of iamveryti.red:

Do you want to see the "trending hashtags" section on our instance?

Hey there sleepy peeps: iamveryti.red now has emoji categories to make finding the perfect shitposting components easier!

The only weird thing that I need to figure out is that the Baba Is Emote section is reusing shortcodes for generic emoji and not displaying the correct Baba images. I'm trying to find out how to change the shortcode on an existing emoji to fix this.

So I guess I’m in an “open marriage” now? I feel really good about things, which is so funny to me. Gladly cheering my husband on to go find some nice dicks and have a good time, lol.

And now I have opportunities too, which is kind of exciting? I may be a flavor of ace but that greyness does come into play and I have my moments. It feels strangely positive that we can go do our respective thing, and come back to each other at the end of the day strong as ever.

Our conversation reinforced my belief that we have nothing to worry about as far as remaining close as a couple; he was very clear that he understood the boundaries of the matter — not an opening to a polycule, not an opening to form romantic relationships, be careful about choosing partners to avoid awkward entanglement, keep communication super open, be safe.

Good, good.

He also said “fair’s fair” and that I could play with others too. So there’s that, lol.

Had a long-overdue conversation w/ non-ace husband about how my grey-aceness affects him. I broached the subject of opening things up so he can “play” with others who can address his needs in ways I can’t. He’d actually had a positive experience w/ a relationship like that in the past (he and partner were bi) and was familiar and open to such an arrangement. Weirdly, that is a big relief to me; he can get his needs met, and I don’t feel like I’m depriving him.

Hey friends who are a masto #admin: Is there a way to shut off these new constant emails about approving #hashtags?

Admin Note:
Suspended domain social.hatthieves.es due to having an abundance of gab and spinster federated content

I can’t tell if having a bunch of plants in my room and having the windows open is helping my mood, or it’s because houseplants are a new hyperfixation assuaging my need for a new thing to obsess over

𝘑 𝘦 𝘳 𝘳 𝘺 .

This quarter's manly butt pellets have been acquired.

tfw you type up a toot response to a federated tweet and decide at the last moment that most people probably wouldn’t find it as funny as you do to mention marc weiner, creator of hit nickelodeon tv show “weinerville” which ran from 1993-1994

Oh hey... I wonder when @tootapp added this? Nicely done!

(Though as an admin I’ll be leaving it off so I can catch naughties)

Just thinking about the in-joke I have with my husband about the tiny anole lizards that are everywhere in Florida: After they do their aggressive push-ups at you, they emit a tiny, almost inaudible ᴀᴀᴀᴀᴀᴀᴀᴀᴀᴀ
