Being a trans lesbian feels... Oddly disgusting? On one hand, already feel disgusting from being trans, I'm a freakish, oversized, ugly falsehood of a woman, who will probably die alone? And never find anyone to love? But that's besides the point, being a lesbian on top of it?
Going to the local game shop for open table night. This is the first time I've done something social apart from work in 5 years. I hope I don't embarrass myself!

I worked a blue collar carpentry job for 3 years and this is so true. Blue collar jobs kill your soul, your co-workers always shit on you for being weak because you won't bend over backwords to lick the bosses boots. You're not tough for putting up with unsafe work conditions 1/2
One of the biggest reasons I hate when people shill for blue collar careers is because the entire culture is so ass. I've worked blue collar work:
-Everyone is in a running gun battle to prove they're toughest and put up with the most bullshit outta everyone else. If you're wearing comfy shoes, they gotta make sure to point out they've been wearing the same shitty boots for the last 30 years!
-Every single blue collar job seems to be obsessed with sucking you in and getting you to be there long-term. I worked with a carpentry company for a few months, they spent literally the entire time, nearly every day, being like "Oh yeah man, we've got lots of guys who've been here for like 13 years, we're like a family." Very very little sense of any kind of career progression or ambition.
