  • You’re allowed to be annoyed by it. That’s an annoying thing to have happen. But yelling at her won’t fix the situation, and as you’ve already noted, is only going to make things worse. Feeling angry is OK. Taking it out on someone else is not.

    Can you take that emotion and do something else with it? Make a piece of art, play a shoot 'em up game, listen to an angry song, etc?


  • Not exactly, but I don’t blame you for being confused. I didn’t realize my own wording was ambiguous! “Counterfeit Florida Plates” is the name of the song where the type of lyrics I’m referring to are used. An example:

    Steal some sunscreen/From the CVS/Use too much/And make a great big mess/Wait where shadows/Mask or hide my scent

    Normally a sentence starting with a verb like that is an imperative or a command, with “you” being the understood subject. But here, the narrator is talking about himself in first person (“mask or hide my scent”). So I was wondering if that usage had a name.



  • I’m a trans man (FTM) and while I’ve gone for the “shave head and let nature take its course” option, a lot of trans men seem to really like finasteride because it doesn’t have as many hormonal side effects as some other treatments. It’s not an at-home method but I believe you can get it from a GP/PCP, you shouldn’t need to go to a specialist. A lot of guys also seem to like minoxadil/Rogaine but you need to watch out if you have cats, because it’s really toxic to cats.
