Yes on 50! Last day to vote is tomorrow 🗳️

go the fuck outside. find a goth club. go there on a kink / queer night. go even if you think “you won’t fit in” (cheat code: just wear black). be friendly. give yourself time. repeat as necessary. you will make exceptional friends. life is for the living. do it scared. 🏳️‍⚧️🖤🏳️‍🌈

Happy Halloween y’all 👻🎃💀

i have no idea what the exact deal of the disco elysium guys was, but as an ancom with gender nonsense "are women bourgeois?" is like your older brother who was in the pen for a while giving you a birthday present and it's a 9mm with the serial numbers exquisitely filed off and stippled down

There's a point you get to when transitioning when you're just like, fuck it, I want and deserve everything from life I can get out of it. I'm not merely owed a living, I'm owed joy, decadence, and pleasure in unprecedented quantities, and so is everyone else. That's why they hate us.

To those who are planning on making a political statement on Halloween with ramen or cup mac n cheese, flyers, ect......don't. Let the kids have a fun, magical night with as much candy, chocolate, and mild mischief as possible.

That's the demisexual pride flag. Great job, Google.

Explaining to urgent care how I got a needle stick injury was all sorts of fun - I went up and hugged someone, because I was so impressed with the aftercare they were providing to someone else after a needle play scene, forgetting that they still had a row of needles stuck through their chest.

I hate that I still look over when someone calls my deadname in a waiting room

Pro-tip: if you're at a party and someone tells you their playa name is "Flatline", don't laugh and ask them why

This was like, all my cis girlfriends. …almost. A few good ones saw me for who I am and are still in my life 💜

Somehow I did not realize that last night was Black Rebel Motorcycle Club’s final show. Holy shit, so glad I got to see them play one last time.

Garbage were so hi-tech that they didn’t even have any speakers onstage, pure amp modeling all the way. BRMC look like they’ve never bought a new amp or instrument in their lives.

Garbage absolutely killed it at the Warfield tonight. Heading back tomorrow to see BMRC!

One reason I can never run for any office: can you imagine my campaign. “Fighting to save the bus while going under it”

I'm a deeply flawed individual, but I bring joy to the world.

Goddamn I forgot how stressful interviewing is. On to round two though 💪

I’ve been pretty down recently (hence not posting much) but new things are in the works and I’m excited. Been thinking hard about how to build a play party organization that’s resilient and sustainable, and that means accountability for everyone, including myself.

Not long ago -- in my lifetime -- all trans people faced unspeakable violence, including state-sponsored violence, for simply existing And self-appointed gatekeepers made it as tough as possible for a person to transition. Anyone who wants to bring back the gatekeeping also wants the violence back

Saw my HRT doctor, she asked what day was my shot day, and I'm like, I have a regular shot day?

i grew more as a person in three years as a woman than i did in 30 as a boy

You know how the first time you play through Disco Elysium when you've built this beautiful complex messy character and suddenly the game just ends and you never get anything more and it feels like it was all for nothing? Well, losing a friend is kinda like that.

Probably not a good sign when the receptionist at your nearest urgent care remembers your name

It is Folsom Saturday and there’s no place I would rather be that seeing Patrick Wolf in this gorgeous venue

Allyship isn’t an all access card. Some spaces no matter how long you e been an ally aren’t meant for you, nor are you welcomed in. A good ally knows when to respect boundaries, a bad one will whine and fuss about being excluded.

Can you tell when I switched to injections? It’s low-key medical malpractice not to start HRT with injectable estrogen. Effectively I’ve been medically transitioning for only 9 months because I wasted 15 months on pills and patches that had barely any effect, and you can tell from the body changes.

JFC, that was a big one

Reminding myself that "each contributes according to her ability" means that it's okay to contribute less when I don't have the same ability as I did before

"You are seen and you are loved" without the promise of safety or protection is a meaningless, hollow gesture. We need people to embody "You will be safe, and you will be protected." We need people to actually do something and stand up for trans rights. When all we want is to be able to exist.

You’re not obliged to mourn the death of someone who wished extermination on you and the people you care about. I feel like this should be pretty fucking obvious.

Just found out that Apple Photo’s blemish eraser tool won’t work on any picture it considers NSFW, which it defines very broadly. What the actual fuck? Why are they analyzing and judging the content of our photos and restricting functionality accordingly? Guess I’m paying for Adobe Lightroom…

Going out in Vegas!

You *really* know you're a burner when you have a shitty year and you still want to come back next year

Cars are real, y'all

A few months ago my dear friend Chayna died, and after she died I wrote a song about her and read the lyrics at her funeral. On Sunday I placed those lyrics in the Temple, along with a letter to her and tributes from others, and watched as it was released by fire. We took her home.

Someone I know once referred to Burning Man as "recreational moving" and wow that's correct

I’m trying not to stress too much about national politics because good mental health is important… but the deployment of armed troops to the streets of DC and threats to do that to Chicago and New York is *seventh* on the Guardian US website, and I’m like, why the fuck isn’t this all over the news?

btw if you’re hot and I unfollow you don’t take it personally, I’m just moving you to my alt account because you’re too hot to pop up on my feed when I’m looking at my main account on the subway 😘

Get a cold call from someone. "Hi, is this [deadname]?" "No, it is not." "Oh, so is this a wrong number?" "No, it is not." *Pause as the gears turn in the caller's head until he realizes what's going on*

Gendered correctly at Lowes, I’ll take that as a win

People keep asking me why I don't return to the UK
