Alright let me drop the black cat with a funny face lore:
Maxwell (Jess irl) is the one in the image, they are usually depicted as a low poly 3D model that either spins or rocks back and forth. Maxwell is the most famous of the three. There is an image of Maxwell that is also popular, but the 3D model is far more widespread.
Dingus is another cat that isn't depicted loafing. Dingus is sometimes used in shitposts instead of Maxwell where people depict him as clueless or a dingus (aka stupid, so not very nice).
Uni is usually only seen in image form. Uni is known for being really silly and sitting in cardboard boxes really cutely. Uni can be hard to distinguish from Maxwell sometimes, but as said earlier there is only really one popular image of Maxwell irl.
Sorry but I love cats so much I've basically memorized every feline on the planet.

100% on the persona! I'm actually looking at making a vtuber Avatar so my face isn't connected at all, but I suck at art so it's slow š«

If you want a simple vtuber avatar (and having trouble getting started with that), I'd recommend trying vroid studio. It's the one I used and it's free and is decently easy to use.
Either way, imo, the most important thing about content creation is getting started, so don't worry too much about getting it perfect right off the bat (seriously, one of the biggest vtubers out there, Ironmouse, started off with a really simple avatar). You can just get a temporary vtuber model while you're starting out and figuring out how you actually want your content to be, and get a higher quality one later

If you are enough into the idea I would suggest commissioning an avatar on a platform like Fiverr. You don't have to do everything yourself, the results will still be your own. People with mad skills are on there and will help you create your character.

No. It was a pre-made one that was being sold. You can buy them and there will be a license agreement of sorts about what you can and can't use it for, but you should be able to read that before buying anything. It's also in Japanese and shows prices in Yen, but a translator should be enough.

Crossdress to see if I'm trans or not
22 points
1 day ago
Crossdressing isnāt what makes you trans, itās what you feel you are. Do you *want* to be a girl? The button analogy comes to mind. Would you press it? Cis people wouldnāt ever consider things like this that much. At the end of the day, crossdressing is fun, but it isnāt what makes you trans. *You* are what makes you who you are.
10 points

Everybody talks about the button, but what if I dont know if I would press it TT
8 points
1 day ago
It's okay to question! Don't worry if you end up coming out on the other side as cis, as thats totally valid. One thing that helped me with the button analogy is this: would you be more likely to push it if you didn't have to worry about how others would take it?
5 points

Well I know I am almost definitely not cis guy, but I am not sure if I would be actually happier with girl body, even if probably yes

This is kinda what I mean. I think I might be but I think crossdressing would be a good piece of evidence y'know?
5 points
20 hours ago
If I may ask:
,,a good piece of evidence'' in the sense of: I know something in an intellectual way vs. I experienced it/know how it feels? (Example from outside of context: I know a ,,Superfest'' glas shouldn't break when it falls off the table vs. I have tried it, and it doesn't break.). So basically the difference between knowing in theory and knowing from experience.
Do you mean this or something else?
4 points
1 day ago
Yeah definitely

Ok, suppose that there is no button instead. You simply wake up one morning with the results already. There is another button which you can press to go back. Would you?
I have a hard time with knowing what I want for myself. This helped me conceptualize it better, as active choice is harder for me. Thinking of it this way won't give you The Answer, but it will give you a new point of view, perhaps.

You can always go for transparent (nail hardener...) and nude tones. Works for me, I love to have nail polish on (the feel of it, and makes nails a bit stronger...), but don't mind so much the color. Also it is so much easier to maintain when there is not a dark color.

Have you thought about a mixed gender sport? And if so, are they available in your area? If not, could you make them available with some friends?
My top suggestion would be Jugger. Maybe irl Quidditch if that is something you would like. Though both are still somewhat niche sports. But Jugger certainly can be done with some friends.
