Life of Lamb #17: The Package

I've had some silly comic ideas before. This might be the silliest.

I run a blog that recommends the best methods for things like tucking packing binding and padding/stuffing menstrual care and more, I also try to spread general safety resources for anyone who needs it. And I add more information as I learn new things. now i have way more then just trans/intersex/drag type stuff.

The plan is to put links for all my recommendations then have a link to another post that explains things like instructions, safety, and how to wash and care for and alter what I recommend. (my intro post is linked here, I want to keep the master list pinned instead of it and one more thing) Why don’t I have a DNI?

And I’m always open for questions or requests, I’ll do specific research on any items you ask about to answer whatever questions anyone sends. I take both asks and DMs, its what this blog is here for.

status: everythings updated :) my grammar is messy but i did my best, ill probably be going back and fixing grammar at some point later maybe. (updated as in everything i wanted to put here, is here but that only off the knowledge i already had. like i said if i learn something or get more resources for something im missing ill add it.)

----------------- other recommendations

adulting

guides for the internet, tech, shopping, and cleaning finanial aid more financial aid (mostly international but it depends) good rx(not insurance but discounts on medication) things to keep in mind about boycotting keep in mind about activism protesting safety disabled protesting more seatbelt safety (for people and pets) Reminders vaccines

Things you can do to help everything script to use when calling to complain about KOSA for SCREEN take any of the free patterns for packers and breast forms make them and drop them off at local trans centers or homeless centers and if you have the money do the same with binders bras boxers underwear and the reusable menstrual discs and cups(these are especially amazing because they’re silicone you just rinse them out shower and reuse every time every month so homeless people and just anyone doesn’t have to spend money on tampons every month. They’re also safer then tampons) and get vaccinated

blogs I recommend for positivity and resources trans-punk-experience, transsexual-experiences, dandelionsresilience, letters-to-lgbt-kids, queer-mental-health, anti-terf-posts answersfromzestual, crafting-and-tea, reasonsforhope, isuggestcompassion,

the family blogs, people who listen your-queer-lil-sib, big-sister-blog, bigbroadvice, your-new-big-sibling, your-trans-brother your-queer-dad(he’s been taking breaks so there won’t be quick responses, the breaks are a good thing just want to make that clear) trans-joy-is, intersex-joy-is,

this-is-sexism(one of my favorites) this-is-transgynephobia, this-is-transandrophobia, thisis-intersexism, this-is-excrosexism, this-is-amato-heteronormativity, this-is-aphobia, this-is-internoirism, thisisracism (these last two are about poc experiences!!! thats so rare on tumblr im so excited!!! please do go check them out!!)

sex ed blogs(real accurate sex ed, as in intersex inclusive) comprehensive sex ed, dhddmods(is back) sex characteristics and genitalia variations rundown whats igm/ how to check yourself for it list of sex surgeries (reconstructive, constructive, sex reassignment etc are all under this) where to ask questions and unpack negative sterotypes about peoples sex this is one of my favorites when it comes to 101 of gender and sex some things to keep in mind while youre going through all this sex binaries are bad no matter how you slice it even if theyre degendered. and its up to people to label themselves, people cant force labels on you or force information out of you, and at the same time you cant transition into being intersex because its a sex situation youre born with. at the same time pretending like everyone who has x and started as y is z is not the move to make. and everyone is oppressed under patriarchy and everyone has a word to describe their feelings, misandry isnt a incel word they stole it and warped it just like how radfems stole and warped feminism and misogyny, but it doesnt make any of it theirs. lastly anyone can be any kind of bigoted being any gender or anything, doesnt make you more or less likely to hurt anyone or be hurt by someone specific, there are so many people in this world and so many ways to think you cant generalize groups and assume one is safer and these others are unsafe based on factors people cant control. and of course never threaten anyone or drag things out when someone is trying to harass you the safest thing to do is to just report and block and move on. i have complicated feelings about some of these guides and "this-is" blogs because a lot of what i listed out isnt acknowledged or ever taken seriously but they still do hold the most updated guides so just tread carefully and its the same way the other way around too my resources are open to everyone as long as you dont start harassing me or my followers or anons etc

blogs I like about mostly bugs and fish and art onenicebugperday, marinebiology1, snoopyoftheday, herpsandbirds, mammalianmammals, stickyfrogs, uncharismatic-fauna, bugposting, sealsdaily, bugthingsdaily, fishthingdaily, isopawds, maggotmuncher0, amingledyarn

Hang on I have a gif for this

Okay gif under the cut (ask me on discord for the *other* gif seeing as tumblr is now monitoring DMs)

So I use unclockable tuck kit, I have like 300 of them so should have enough until I get bottom surgery (in the next couple of decades thanks NHS)

It's super easy to use and you can get them on amazon AND this year they have open an EU store so I don't need to pay for US shipping (they did this like a month after I got the 300 because fml)

I also have their bra buds for a bust boost when I want it and their hipwear for a butt boost when I want it.

They also have cute necklaces and pins.

One of the best things about them is I've been able to wear them for in excess of 8 hours comfortably and they are reusable (you can partially remove it for going to the toilet and then retuck) between 1-3 times dependent on the phases of the moon (probably dependent on how sweaty I am on that day but I haven't studied it for comparisons)

It always leaves a residue but no different to e patches and comes off with a good scrub.

Oh yeah, company was made by and is run by a trans girl and her dad.

Very comfy Highly recommend
