Previously, I had mentioned that I like the Bubblegum Agates because they can be full of surprises. Here is an example:
When I find it on the ground and wash it off it looks sort of like this.
Then after rolling around in the tumblers, the abrasive grit wears away the "husk" and we get a glimpse of what's inside. This is how this one turned out.
and the other side.
Here are a few others that turned out nice.
This one came from Teepee Canyon. I'll be going back to get more soon.
My expertise in jewelry making is improving.
Check out this engagement ring. Now that is a rock any woman would love to receive.
Or not.

Quote from: Starryskyy on Today at 11:36:28 AMHi I'm an expert in the never ending ebb and flow of gender frustrations. It's totally normal especially as you get much further along in simply being you despite various obstacles, I'm unable to see myself as male and just look at myself horrified in the mirror often. Been this way for many years and I've had a lot more experience with being completely open about being who I am even though it's not entirely safe for me to shout it from the rooftops.
Quote from: Starryskyy on Today at 11:36:28 AMSince doing so though and just being me regardless of the never ending dysphoria from my looks often I never think about my gender otherwise. I just go about my life as a woman and get misgendered every day a million times over with the occasional person that gets it (I do look naturally extremely feminine with some really bad issues that have more to do with head shape and hair than much else).
Quote from: Starryskyy on Today at 11:36:28 AMIf I cover the top of my head and shave so well that day that only the most baseline shadow is there I get gendered correctly more often. It's still extremely rough and because of the divide between my appearance and presentation with the hair situation and people that recognize me in public as male that aren't exactly good people things can scary out there.
Quote from: Starryskyy on Today at 11:36:28 AMI'd say most of my dysphoria besides my personal view on my looks comes from the way the immediate community treats me and what I need to do to protect myself sometimes. I can't just present male, I have no idea how to so usually on the days where I'm most insecure I just turtle inside a hoody and keep on the down low. Always have other things to do to take my mind off it and I value my time away from people anyways where I need it.
