  • It's a game, you've been played
    It's the fox, you're the sheep
    It's a pied piper song
    That has lulled you to sleep

    It's a lie and you fell for it
    Hook, line, and sinker
    A hand that you shook
    That then gave you the Finger

    A fraud and a fake
    A cowardly king
    A LIE to your FACE
    But you STILL KISS THE RING

    This is the Breakdown!
    ThIS is ThE BREAkDOWn!!
    tHIS iS the bREAKDOWWWWN!!!

  • rising up against all of this

    Does Rise Against count?

    I am not a good gatekeeper of "mainstream" or "sellout" etc but this feels like a hostile thread so I guess criticism is incoming.

    I feel like the entirety of RA's discography fits this theme perfectly. The songwriting is part of why I can't get enough.

    (I can't speak for their recent Ricochet album - the sound quality is poor and lots of fans hate it; we hope we get a rerecording some day. Set aside Ricochet and I feel like you can't go wrong with anything else of theirs.)

    Trying to list deeper cuts that might be good hooks:

    Album / Song:

    The Black Market / Bridges
    The Black Market / People Live Here
    Endgame / Disparity by Design
    Endgame / Midnight Hands
    Endgame / A Gentleman's Coup
    Nowhere Generation / The Numbers
    Nowhere Generation / Sudden Urge
    EP Nowhere Generation II / Holding Patterns
    Wolves / Welcome to the Breakdown
    Appeal to Reason / Entertainment
    EP / Megaphone

    And you can't go wrong with the back to back tracks "Prayer of the Refugee" followed by "Drones" from the album The Sufferer and the Witness.

    Even older albums have good stuff but I didn't list them since idk if you'd call them "modern". Tip the Scales + Give It All are good tracks.

  • They got back to me. Paraphrasing below:

    They're experienced with guiding people through transitions/HRT so I defer to their expertise.

    They tell me that it's unfortunately common for there to be "doomers" online who gain a small sense of relief via feeling like they can control their situation by describing it as futile. They say "those people need to help themselves first; there's no way our resources would help until a foundation of commitment to self betterment is present."

    They said one could be guided to resources online without that self help commitment, but their tone sounded like they thought a random internet commentor is unlikely to get much value out of said resources.

    I'd guess reflecting on your situation (independent of the comments we see here) might help you estimate your own readiness to pursue help.

    A first or preliminary step may be to begin talk therapy with a professional. That may be a good way to get pointed to the right resources for any next steps.

    It didn't occur to me earlier, but your location would affect what specific options are available to you. My contact works in the Ohio River Valley area of the US but I didn't consider that you might be outside of the US or in some place where resources just don't exist.

    Idk if any of this helps. I probably committed some SJW trope and ignorantly thought the answers were gonna be more black and white.

    Regardless of whether you find the kind of happiness OP did, you deserve that happiness just as much as anyone.

  • I'll spare the details but I just had a weekend with a magical group of trans allies. If we could teleport, you'd have 16 people appear in your bedroom to crowdsurf you through getting showered and dressed and on your way to a happier place.

    I've hit up one of my new friends to see what info I can relay to someone in your situation. I'll follow up when I hear back.

  • u/Bennyboybumberchums says

    And yet, you and every other social media user in the world, still chooses to use them to get worthless internet points. You may think your message is positive...

    u/Bennyboybumberchums is a troll attempting to drive a wedge between the trans community and their potential future allies. It certainly as fuck won't change anything for current allies.

    OP I'm sure you know that but I say so in this chain in anticipation of the troll being led out.
