You won’t regret being kind.

Even if no one notices.

Even if it’s hard.

You’ll still know you did the right thing.

If you’d told me a decade ago that the NYT and WaPo would roll over for a Republican president going full fascist while the Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal went on the attack — and that Bill Kristol was pressing the attack harder than Nancy Pelosi — well, I’d have had you committed.

Been thinking of ways to be gender euphoric more often, except each day is different in how I feel and wish to present.

There are so many ways to be Non-Binary✨
#Nonbinary is an umbrella term for gender identities that are outside of the gender binary. Enbies aren’t a watered down version of their agab!
Non-binary people aren’t a monolith and don’t owe you androgyny 💛🤍💜🖤

They're lying to you about transgender women and girls in sports The president, politicians and right-wing activists are lying to you about trans women in sports to get what they want.

More and more traditional media is calling it like it is...

The manufactured trans-panic is a scam.

Yesterday was my first time attending a protest and it felt overwhelming, but good.

While you can't yet pre-order my book, you can take a peek at it during the @dukepress.bsky.social flash sale:

Newsletter is now going out a full two days ahead of Public Hearings, so people can form their thoughts for written testimony if they so choose.

New Hampshire friends, I have started a newsletter to help follow the goings on of government within our state. Currently my focus is on Public Hearings by the House of Representatives and the Senate. If you would like to be added to the list, message me your email.

I wrote to the New Hampshire Senate Judiciary Committee about Senate Bill 268 that is blatantly and purposefully discriminatory. I received a response from one of the members of the committee. I am formulating my rebuttal. gc.nh.gov/bill_status/...

Tomorrow I’m going to the State House to speak against this bill. legiscan.com/NH/text/HB28...

I went to a High Protocol Experience at an event this past weekend. I came to
conclusions about myself and what I desire from those on the right side of the slash. I am taking these bits and pieces with me on my journey of discovery and growth as I dip my toes into the waters.

I know smut may seem like a frivolous thing to be upset about, but crushing it is part of fascism. Controlling all forms of sexual expression is fascism. Only allowing certain kinds is fascism. Smut peddlers are always canaries in the coal mines.

Was asked to ponder the following by my therapist, “ What does it mean to pass (versus fail) at life?” I’ll be rattling this one around until next week.

Today was the only time in 6 months that I forgot my person’s collar for our time together. They say it’s fine, but I know it’s not.

This week I made the affirming decision to only go by they/them for my pronouns. She/her or even she/they hadn’t seemed to fit for a while, causing more dysporia than I realized until this past weekend when I was seen for who I am in a space I call home.

I got my first supporter on Ko-Fi!

Santa always brings me a gift that is something my wife would never in a million years get for me. Santa is stumped this year. Years past have included a giant stuffed animal, a gummy bear maker, and a label printer. What do you think Santa should bring?

Solution to yesterday’s gender dysphoria: remember I have binders and actually put one on to wear.

Feeling very uncomfortable in my skin today. Not sure what to do about it, but know it is unpleasant.

Short and sweet.

I've been thinking about what roles I want to play in the community going forward. I've not quite figured it out.

Changing up my fetlife profile and taking suggestions on what to write, because writing about yourself can be hard.

I told my partner that I wasn’t expecting anything from them for the holidays and then proceeded to buy them one of their most sought after squishmallows for the holidays. Guess I have to retract my statement.

My bruises have bloomed wonderfully from that years in the making play date.

I’m shortening my long game. Two years is short, right?

As a service person in consideration of a service person the satisfaction I receive when service is done for me is exponential.

My partner walked in the door with a Baja Blast from Taco Bell. They don’t know it, but they then performed one of the sweetest, yet basic forms of anticipatory service. They let me know that mine was in the car with no ice, so I could have it as a treat tomorrow.

Another great class coming up!

There is nothing quite like your leg falling asleep and you thinking you’re fine to walk and you are so very not fine to walk.
