Well Centrelink apparently doesn't want my money. I swear they overpaid me but once they got my payslip from my new job, they don't care. Like ok then. Just don't call me a dole bludger later when I spent the time trying to fix it.

The trans duck army is marching!

Over the weekend, I had one of the weirdest gender euphoria moments. I was packing boxes after PAX (I'm an enforcer) and was thinking, wow, these are heavy. And then one of the guys just came over and was like, "I'll take that" and like gender roles and all that but I appreciated it.

New job is going great! I'm not alone in this office. There's at least 4 trans folks that I know of and I feel so seen. There's an actual diversity focus and I've only been here for a week.

VR is serious business. Had a VR experience with my new job and gave myself a bloody nose.

Why is this rolling media coverage for a random youtuber? Nobody else would get this kind of coverage...

You know you don't see your family much and nobody talks when you find out a month later that your mother was admitted to hospital... It's often months between calls to either parent, and it's often easy to forget I even have a family a lot of the time.

The perfect start to stream. It had been live for like 20 seconds...

I had forgotten just how painful Centrelink is to contact... I haven't needed them in 10 years, but the trauma of dealing with them is still so ingrained that I still remember my reference number off the top of my head without thinking about it.

Wooo! I got an offer for a new job today! I'm so happy that it finally happened! Only took 11 weeks...

Love showing up for an interview only for the interviewer not to show up and you have to reach out to the recruiter and figure out what happened...

In just eleven weeks the @nionwomen.bsky.social petition organised by cis women who are fed up with transphobia being imposed in their name has obtained 1,000 more signatures than the transphobic one did in six years. Transphobia is not popular. Please sign and share…

Don't you just love it when an app updates, then breaks everything and you can't unpatch so you've just lost functionality until it gets fixed?

God damn it, someone stole my card details somewhere and now I have to get a new card and dispute $340 of Uber Eats charges... I didn't even know Uber Eats was available in my town.

Yesterday I attended a great session on gendered violence and I wanted to share some of the slides that came from that and just how they impact how we see gendered violence within LGBTQIA+ communities.

Every time I get close to 500 listings for the @trans.au directory, I have to remove one. I'm 2 away and it's been edging me for a week now.

Officially unemployed!

Today's my last day in the office at my current job and it's surreal to think that I may never come back into this building again or see many of these people again.

Today's my Abbieversary! My 6 year anniversary of starting hormones. I'm honestly so proud of how far I've come. It's been a long time coming, but I'm so happy now.

So 2nd round interview went really well, I think I've got a great chance of finding out tomorrow whether or not I've got the job and it's probably a good thing tbh. I'm happy with this.

Ok, so, I've got 1 week left of my current job, but on Monday, I get to go through round 2 of the interviews because apparently they liked my first round interview, so that's cool. Now, let's see I get any time off between jobs.

Job interview #1 done. That was nerve wracking and I was stumbling over myself with a lack of understanding but I'd be very happy to work for this company.

And I've got my first job interview in 10 years on Thursday. Today's a good day for me considering the last few weeks of stress about employment and everything else.

So I got a great email asking whether @trans.au can be listed as part of a government information packet for additional information and I'm so honoured to be listed on this!

I hate posting on social media these days but I'm so happy with how I look these days that I just need to share it.

If love is the threat, maybe it’s the system that needs disarming.

So looks like I'm being made redundant at work. Tried to fight it, it did't land, so now I need to find a new job...

First thing this morning, I found out that I was being made redundant in my job as an application developer. I'll be fighting to keep it but I only have a week to make my case at the moment. But it's a tough time right now.

Nine defends front-page Trumpet of Patriots ad after backlash from readers and staff

After Newcastle did this yesterday and got complaints, today, The Age ran the exact same ad on their front page. Nobody should be running this ad as it's a disgrace of political advertising targetting an already marginalised group. This is just adding fuel to a fire that needs some reprieve.

Oooh, I can now do non binary flags as well as trans flags!

Next up we've got @veenusau.bsky.social @abbiegator.io @terrastormer.bsky.social @theycallmejayy.bsky.social We've had a little shift of tomorrow's schedule so please check out these generous content creators.

Australians, did anyone realise we made swearing into a tonal language? Because depending on how you change the tone, calling someone a cunt can change the meaning behind the word. From friend to acquaintance to enemy.

So excited to be part of another fundraiser event for my friend @anniekrevice.bsky.social. This time we board the raid train and help raise funds for her facial feminisation surgery. Get on board and catch myself and these icons!

I'm getting to the point where I need a new game to play on stream soon, anyone got any recommendations for me?

I always hate seeing articles like this: www.wired.com/story/google... It violates the Google motto: "Do the right thing", which used to be "Don't be evil", you know they changed it because they wanted to make more money from weapons.

An anti-trans campaigner who signed a letter last week calling for a federal inquiry into trans healthcare for children and a pause on gender affirming treatment has had an apprehended violence order taken out against her by a trans football player. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I want every person who played the Hogwarts Legacy game and said they were still a trans ally to look at what is happening in the US, UK and Australia right now and tell me again how things weren't as dire as we trans folk were all saying. I want you to recognise you financially contributed to this

No stream from me as I've got an important meeting tonight but I'll stream tomorrow instead.

We just posted a new article! - QNews - Health Minister Mark Butler announces review of trans care trans.au/qnews-health...

"We must save the kids from doctors offices and put them in solitary confinement instead." Read more: chaser.com.au/general-news...

Wow! We're blown away, we've hit record traffic on our website and just passed 10,000 signatures on our petition to protect trans youth in Queensland! You can join them by heading to the link: trans.au/campaigns/p... !

Holy crap, I've never seen so many hits on our website in 1 day. This is what happens when governments cause harm to the trans community, folks are actively fighting this. Seriously, I've been getting anomaly notifications about traffic all week because of this. So thank you!

Honestly, to see this organised on the back of a simple tweet late last night is incredible. Trans folks aren't taking these attacks lying down.

It’s going off outside Tim Nicholl’s office right now. The trans community will not accept these disgraceful attacks. This is the crowd at 9:30am off the back of one tweet late last night. More actions to come.

If you're in Brisbane, please show up, this is important for trans rights in Queensland.

This is garbage policy from the Queensland government, it will cause harm in the short term and we need better solutions than just cutting services. This is why @trans.au has been running a petition recently because we saw this coming.

The latest foray for me into 3d printing, "rubber" ducks. For rubber duck programming.

MySQL logs folks... Seriously, that was an insane amount of logs.

My reach is rubbish on here, so I'm not sure if anybody will see this. However, if you see this and are interested in a trailer or other video editing, drop me a message.
