How’s everybody’s rapture going? We enjoying it so far?

Nobody warns you when you decide to do the work and start honestly interacting with your emotions and needs just HOW MANY emotions and needs would be involved, and frankly I think that's kind of rude!

You know that thing where you wake up like two hours early because you need to pee, and as you're coming back to bed you half-wake your partner, but not enough that either of you are fully awake, so they just start sleepily scratching your head in their sleep?

Having watched both movies called Crash, I can confirm that the Cronenberg one is better!

Shouts to the dolls who straight-up bully the people around them into accepting love and care, but also find it ridiculous that anyone might hold them to the same standard. Cut it out. Accept love and care. People love you more than you think. I still don't gotta, tho. This doesn't apply to me.

Unexpected day off! I’m gonna shop for records and meet a friend for sushi, because I’m a good person with a good heart and a fat ass, and I deserve an easy day that brings me moments of joy!

39 and up Bluesky - drop a pic with your age 47

You know those days where you set yourself easy, achievable tasks, then proceed to accomplish literally zero of them, not shower til four, not eat til six, and spend the evening watching Star Trek: Lower Decks, so as to not have to think too hard? It's that, I'm doing that.

Transition pro tip: One underrated way to get your mom on board is to look exactly like she did 30 years ago.

I'd have been pretty fun if I'd realized things at 17, I think...

Being with someone who likes me sincerely is low-key kind of great, you know? Like, absolutely better than the other options available...

You know that one friend you have where like 80% of the friendship is arguing that the other one is cuter, and more worthy of love? Is that relatable? Is that a universal experience? We all have a friend like that, right?

Everyone who sees this post, please quote post 5 things that make you happy: - My magnificent spouse - The opportunity to perform - Smol dogs, mine in particular, but also smol dogs in general - Receiving scratches on my belly, throat, and head - Watching someone smile and knowing I made it happen

Admitted that my go-to karaoke tunes in the 00s were Milkshake and My Humps, today, and now I’m being absolutely dragged at work about not having unpacked my issues surrounding gender earlier in life. Honestly, kind of fair…

It's Saturday night, a lot's bad, but I spent my day singing songs, telling jokes and stories, and making people happy, and I absolutely do appreciate what a beautiful gift that is. I'm tired, but it's a good, productive tired. I get to be a person now. It will always be worth it.

One of the upsides of how fighty I got about masks and vaccines in 2020, and the fact that I came out as trans a year later, is that I've had relatively few people to block over the last 48 hours or so. Small comfort, but comfort nonetheless.

Today’s dangerous trans agenda: Four hours of phone calls for work, then dropping off soup for a coworker who got her wisdom teeth out this week and doesn’t want to leave the house.

Outlasting the people who want us dead is a beautiful thing.

“What’s your favourite trans lesbian romantic comedy: The Matrix, or our relationship and subsequent marriage?” -Me, to my spouse, just now, while watching The Matrix, because I’m needy and exhausting

Important update: Dogs!

If my masseuse told me I was doing great and he was proud of me, I don’t know if it would break me or fix me, but I would not be leaving the experience unchanged, I do know that!

I keep getting targeted ads from laser places in town. It may be time to shoot a bunch of lasers at myself.

(Sincerely surprised) You can just become a girl!

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't grunge. There are a lot of right answers to this. This one is mine...

My partner got a tonne of X-Men stickers while shopping with the kids from their work. They let the kids have all of them but Gambit, who now lives on their travel mug. There's some chance if their egg had cracked in 1999 they'd be going by Remy right now, and honestly I think that's fine.

Swift of Wit and Fat of Ass: My Life as a Trans Girl in Comedy …well now I guess I have to write a memoir?

Your reminder that Cybersix was a perfect program, and also that there was no need for me, specifically, to sit down and unpack why it specifically resonated with me until years later!

I wasn't weird, and I made it safely out of work, but now I have to live with the things I learned about myself today...

So, one of the gentlemen in the audience tonight is 4-6 inches taller than me, I’m 6’3”, and I am GOING THROUGH IT right now!!!

The 80 year old former owner of the company, who loves me but hadn’t seen me since pre-egg crack, is in town, and we had a warm conversation in which he was cagey for reasons I didn’t understand. Just found out it was because he blanked on “Munsi” and didn’t want to deadname me. So that’s sweet!

If you see this, repost with a vampire that is not Dracula

Hear me out: In 2013, especially heavy rainfall on the melting snowpack in the Rocky Mountains led to unexpected, sudden flooding throughout the city of Calgary, forcing the evacuation of several of the lower-elevation areas of the city. Among the areas evacuated was the Calgary Zoo. (thread)

If he does pass, I’m gonna post about it for five or six hours, inappropriately gleefully, then post nudes before bed. Do yeah, fair warning.

Every Trans Femme deserves one bisexual friend who gear-shifts instantly and effortlessly from flirting shamelessly to flirting shamelessly, but now it’s sapphic. I saw mine tonight, it was lovely.

…I’m gonna play Magic: the Gathering today, because I am not afraid to lean into the cliche of it all!!!

The dude with my deadname worked his last shift at the theatre, today. Good guy, very funny and a fun hang. I cringed when anyone called his name, but also weaponized it to get people to stop deadnaming me. He was a part of my world for four years. Hopefully he keeps coming out to social events.

Let’s goooooooooooo!!!!!!

I can not stress to you with sufficient enthusiasm how hard I hit the dance floor EVERY SINGLE time a DJ plays The Love Cats. It's a sight to behold!

I don't know that I'll ever be able to view myself as attractive or desirable, but I do view myself as fully human, now, and worthy of care, and that's a huge step in itself.

Okay! Fixes day! And tomorrow we open! And then, and only then, I get an actual night’s sleep!!!!

I’m gonna continue being silly and soft, singing songs, telling stories, and building communities, regardless of how the world falls apart. I worked hard to be this person. I’m not giving it up.

Dress rehearsal time! And we know that means!!!! Here comes our boymode!!!! Honestly, I think my boymode is improving, now that I’m more open about how it’s just for pretend. Five years ago the fact that I looked like a dude made me wanna die, but this guy? I’d kinda hit it!

Okay! Dress rehearsal today! Let’s go!!!! I totally got this! Christ, I hope I got this…

Tech day is done! It went quicker than expected, and we had time to do a full run! We're doing it, y'all, we got a show!!! Two days til dress rehearsal. It's gonna be a CRUNCH, but I think we may got this!!!

I can sing songs! I can do dances! Not at the same time! I know the shape of every scene, but I am not word-perfect! I have another week to get a 2-act musical into my brain!!! I totally got this! I hope!!!

Hugo. Nominated. Account.

You know that thing where you come out and then like three people you’ve dated come out as transmasculine almost immediately after, because you saw something shared in one another that you didn’t have language at the time to properly describe? Is that relatable? Is that a common thing?

I’m pumped as hell that this show exists! First episode is great too!!!
