Any Primary Education Teachers?

I (26MTF) am a teacher who just socially transitioned over the summer. I am very lucky in that the school that I teach at has about 50% queer staff and probably a similar ratio in the student body. Many students have told me, however, about how homophobic/transphobic their families are at home. Given that it’s a small, remote community, I’m little concerned for how this upcoming year is going to look.

Has anyone else gone through transition while working in a school? Is there anything that worked/didn’t? Anything to be aware of or cautious about?

Homemade Estradiol?

I have a bit of an odd question, but I would first like to clarify that I do not plan to make estradiol at home, nor do I encourage others to.

What I want to know is, if industrial society were to collapse tomorrow and global supply chains fell apart, would there be a way to continuously produce Estradiol or a similar compound?

I’m sure it wouldn’t be insanely high on the survival checklist, but it’s definitely up there for me. I just wonder if all trans people would essentially be forced to medically detransition, or if there’s some option that’s possible with pre-modern technology.

Cosmere Names?

I was doing an escape room with my family earlier and saw this puzzle. My eyes immediately latched on “Rosharn” (Roshar) at the top. Then I saw Kashryn (Ashyn), Erdusk (Sixth of the Dusk), Sharlon (Shallan?), Keldrin (Kelsier? Kaladin?)

Is this a schizoid moment and I’ve just been reading too many Cosmere books, or am I on to something here? Are there any others I’m missing in the picture?

Dungeons and Dragons Online Group?

I know it’s not digital gaming, but I think it still counts! I’m a 25 year old trans woman and I want to get more involved with D&D again, and I was thinking about running a couple of one-shots and maybe running a full campaign in the future? Are there any other girls who would be interested in playing over discord? I can be the DM and I’d ideally like a party of 3-5 players.

No experience necessary, I’ve probably taught over 100 people to play D&D in the past!

Not a lot of change but I’m on track now!

Pictures are me at 21 (left), and exactly 5 years later at 26 (right). I feel like I haven’t seen as crazy change as other people, but for only 6 months on E I’m pretty happy with my progress so far.
