Rowan Jetté Knox 🇨🇦

Watching Trump announce martial law in Washington DC this morning is the most terrifying thing. It’s just the start of what’s to come, I fear.

My heart is with the millions of Americans who didn’t vote for fascism.

Testosterone has changed the structure of my face it’s it’s so cool.

We got the final interior design specs for our new cafe and OMG ITS GOING TO BE GORGEOUS 😍 I can’t wait to see this shop come alive!

Now we have to wait for city permits and we’re ready to build the dream. Here’s to trans people doing joyful things in 2025.

This morning I laid on the couch for 45 minutes doing absolutely nothing but marvelling at how quiet my brain was and how calm my body felt.

This was the right decision.

The face of a guy who went back on his SSRIs last week and feels much, much better.

He’s like my better looking younger brother 😂

Me: *posts new profile pic on another social media account*

TERF: You look like a biological woman who is masculinizing with hormones and has some facial hair and wears masculine clothing!

What a weird way to say I’m a guy but okay

I know right?! I can’t believe it’s been so long.

Happy six years to my first book and surprise bestseller Love Lives Here: a Story of Thriving in a Transgender Family

Trans stories are even more important today than they were back in 2019. Let’s keep telling them. 🏳️‍⚧️❤️

Wab is an incredible man. Manitoba is lucky to have him. ❤️ 🇨🇦

“Rowan are you taking selfies of your facial hair in the bedro—“

NO OF COURSE NOT

13: On Aging and Ageism Lara just turned 49 and has been thinking a lot about how 50 is right around the corner.

I’m going to be fifty next year and I have feelings about that. So @mavenofmayhem.bsky.social and I talked about them :)

No but we had smash burgers and beer after so it’s okay

Dani: let’s go on a little walk.

Me: how little?

Her: you’ll see

GUYS SHE MADE ME WALK 14KM LOVE IS PAIN

he's bitin the heads off the angels now

Those of us who lived in Ottawa during the “trucker” occupation remember it was not a peaceful protest. My downtown friends were harassed when they left their homes. My life was threatened more for speaking out against it than it ever has for trans activism. Do not let them rewrite the narrative.

Distraction, distraction, distraction.

Every time a would-be dictator feels cornered, they’ll create a smokescreen and/or find a scapegoat. This is a prime example.

Hello to all the trans people named Rowan. 👋

Special mentions: Ash, Emma/Emily, Dani, Alex, Jay.

I periodically like to share that I’m a trans person who is in love and very happy.

So many out there want to paint us as unlovable. That is untrue. I feel incredibly loved every single day.
❤️🏳️‍⚧️❤️

Hi there. Be good to you today. You’re the only you there is. ❤️

Thank you!

Rowan stands in a black t-shirt looking down at his watch. The photo is in black and white and has a moodiness to it.

So, I was feeling dysphoric today. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it can be hard to get out of my head.

I figured I’d take some pics to see what the camera sees. Maybe it would see a man that I couldn’t.

This was the test pic for lighting.

I didn’t have to take more.

There are many reasons you don’t want to date me and this is one of them

Me: *walks into the room*

Me: ….

Me: 🎶Jason Derulo🎶

My partner: Rowan no

Facebook was all “we’re promoting you more in the algorithm because you consistently create high quality content” and I think this means Mark Zuckerberg wants me to be visibly trans to more boomers. 🙏

Facts

TV pitch: Colbert and I do a talk show together in which he makes jokes and I laugh at those jokes.

Also we can have celebs on it sometimes or whatever.

An electrical box with a painted opossum on it. “Opposums eat approx 5000 ticks per season” it says. Someone else writes “this shit goat’d”

God I love Toronto

I’ve done a lot of cool things in my life but sitting in a space I’m leasing knowing it’s going to be a queer little coffee shop soon is maybe the coolest. 🥰🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
