Everyone here debating the mechanics of the button or engaging with the question explicitly posed.
But I'm just trying to figure out wtf the bottom comment in the pic is about. A day? What day? No time frame is ever mentioned in any other part of the post.
Arch-user in the image said they were a "completely cis dude" and would hit that button, then replied to themselves (~1 day later) calling herself "she" - implying they became(?) trans within that time period. The final response is from another person, incredulous at the short timeline between "completely cis" and trans
It took them a day to realize they're trans. The reblogs have timestamps.
Both reblogs say 6d ago
Most likely just awkward rounding when the screenshot was taken. A lot of the time those post age indicator tags just count the number of hours between it and you then each multiple of 24 is a day without caring about when the actual date changes. So the first could easily have been at like 7pm one day and the second like 11am the next day and they'd both get abbreviated at 6 days ago if you were looking at it at like 4pm when you haven't quite hit the next multiple of 24 hours.
