I'm gonna be a summer camp counselor again this year and want to see if I can bind without needing a bra, hence the transtape. The past couple times I did tape, it has stuck on for 5-6 days through showers every 1-2 days. And this time it was still super stuck to my skin. Worked very well!

How have you found swimming with tape on? We'll be swimming for an hour every day for 4-5 days.

I think I'm going to try checking it out at the pool first, to see what happens.

How has it held up for you?

Got home from picking up my school stuff today. Mom was like oh proud of you you're finished second year. Then presented me with a big list of house chores and was like "we did all this stuff while you were in university so now you do it". A little while later she showed me her phone and she'd changed my name from my deadname to my chosen name and then looked at me expectantly. I don't know why it pissed me off SO MUCH. Maybe it's because she was expecting brownie points or something. It takes 5 seconds to do. Yeah I appreciate it but I have been out since OCTOBER and it's now halfway through April. Changing a name on a phone is the easiest thing to do. And I could tell she hadn't changed it until today because a lot of the time she'd call me and slip up and use my deadname. And I knew my deadname was still on her phone.

God why is this pissing me off more than some of the major shit she's done. I don't get it. Maybe this is just the cherry on top. Idk.
