like, say, if one of my other alters seems to be incapable of hating himself (at least not by much), but whenever i front again i usually have an episode where it’s really easy for me to feel absolutely *awful,* could that be because i’m getting emotions “pushed” (or, i suppose, unintentionally repressed and they go through me to resurface) onto me?

note he’s an awesome guy and is like 95% of the reason we get *any* schoolwork done. if he could hate himself badly i don’t think we could actually function. i’m pretty sure he’s mentally pretty brittle though and i don’t think he could take the same mental hit as me from a bad situation without splitting.

hi hello!!!!! very recently realised i miiiight be transmasc (thanks ego renegade boy (song by flavor foley)) and ive been shopping recently for more masc clothes and i wanted to know if anyone has any good brands to go for/avoid? places i can go are gonna mostly be target, costco, walmart, or old navy.

i’m not technically out to my parents yet but they know i’m not *just* a girl (or at least, they should. i’ve told them i’m nonbinary and use she/they but i think they just kind of ignore it. they’d probably be okay with me being a boy though) so i think i could probably go to other clothing stores if i specifically requested any (east coast usa, btw)

i do have sensory issues and struggle with complex tasks so ideally the clothes would be a) soft and b) something you can just toss in the washer + dryer and be done with it ready to wear

my parents probably don’t want to spend that much on something they’ll probably assume is a “phase” so the cheaper the better (but i understand price is oft inversely related to quality) (also i’m hopefully going to get a summer job soon so i’ll make my own money to spend on stuff so price’ll matter less)

(as an aside does the name “aspen” sound nice… i wanted to stick with something that starts with an a (alex and austin are off-limits because i know people with those names already) but i don’t know if it sounds peculiar… it’s technically unisex but most associated with women but i don’t mind that aspect as much)
