  • Hey, if it was good for you, then good for you. I’ve done the same for shorter stretches of time, about two years one time. It helped my mental health a lot, and then I came back having the energy to actually get involved and do something.
    In case anyone needs to hear it, it’s okay and normal to take a break. Or seek support, or whatever you need to do. No lemming is an island, or something like that.

    On a slightly related note, my theory* is that the next step in reincarnation after human is moth, and that’s why when people are dying they describe a bright light and a strong urge to move toward it.

    *I don’t actually believe this, just being silly here :P

    being able to choose what gendered words I use for myself in russian is a cool way to assert dominance

    Seconded. I started studying Spanish just a few months after coming out as trans. I’d expected all the gendered personal nouns/adjectives to make conversations with new people awkward, but not at all! It gave me the chance to tell them how to refer to me straight out instead of waiting for them to either have to ask or guess wrongly.

    And hell, if using that -o suffix for myself doesn’t bring the euphoria every damn time. ¡Me encanta!
