I went to a small robotics tournament this weekend and was worried that making my robots pink, white, and blue with trans flags painted on them might have been a bad idea at such a STEMmy event, but I actually met a couple other really cool trans gals there and my bots got a lot of compliments! The whole community was actually super wholesome in general and there were a lot more women and families than I expected.

It's also starting to get warmer here which is a real double edged sword. Winter means I get to bundle up and hide my dysphoria in oversized hoodies and overalls, but if I feel like dressing up cute I don't have many options. Otoh when it's warm I get to be adorable every day, but if my BDD decides to ruin my day I have nowhere to hide my grotesque body.

Being trans is weird.

idk what kind of robotics you were doing but IME the whole field(? hobby? idk) has gotten very trans lately and I've been loving it

I have the same (sorta) reaction every spring. It takes me a while to acclimate to showing skin, even showing my knees feels awkward after a nice long tundra winter. But every year I figure it out because it beats cowering in the AC 24/7 or overheating in jeans and long sleeves
