I found mine via my therapist. But also try googling “trans support groups near me”…it’s surprisingly fruitful (pardon the pun).

Have you found a local or nearby trans support group? They’d probably have the best recommendations…

I started an all-trans punk band online, and my usual music is singer-songriter. The new project really pushed me, and turns music making into a social activity! I also started another solo project that is 100% cello covers of contemporary songs (last one I did was “girls just wanna have fun”). Both of these projects push me out of my usual, and breathe some fresh air into my music. Maybe you could find some ideas that pushes you out of your comfort zone?

These are all my thoughts, too. I have nothing to add though…

Most religions specifically dissuade people from thinking critically. I recall my time in my Jesuit high school, where any questioning of the tenets were frowned upon.

The basic concept of faith is to accept something which can’t be proven. It is antithetical to critical thought.

I have spent years learning about religions of the world, as I recover from my religious trauma. There are very few which truly encourage critical thought.

Critical thinking isn’t anti-religion. Religion is anti-critical thinking.

Not to mention Alan Turing

Most jobs work that way. A job has a set pay, and you can get fired or promoted. Tipping is unusual: A janitor doesnt get paid a different amount each paycheck because of how clean others feel it is this week. Cashiers who help you find things in the store don’t make more that day.

Good! Checking out Lemmy to see if r/nonbinary and r/enby should move here… wondering what server specs we’ll need…
