It's surprising at times what helps affirm our identity and triggers a little hit of euphoria. It's just a simple T-shirt, nothing really that different from what I wore as a guy.

It is something similar but different. A symbol of continuity and change.

Caught up with my parents this week, my dad made me laugh in a weirdly affirming way. He was a little concerned that I was going goth.

I was not wearing any black, so it was just bizarre, but I also loved that we are at the stage.

It's bisexual awareness week, and I have been holding on to this since pride month and the explosion of Bi Erasure that was visible with Jojo Siwa and Billie Eilish. However, they are just the visible tip of a larger issue. #bisexual #BiAwarenessWeek #LGBTQIA

I used to go to concerts and envy all the girls in hot outfits. So... I became one, unleashing my inner attitude and some of those punk rock roots, I've learned to dress with a bit of an edge.

I started a new insta so it doesn't have my ex-wife scrutinising everything or family who message me about stories they find insulting while ignoring everything else. So I am posting with a bit more freedom.

Join the fight to end LEGO's relationship with JK Rowling and the Harry Potter franchise! 35 signatures are needed, letโ€™s get there by the end of the day?

I know it is unlikely to do much good, but as a Lego fan that spend hundreds of dollars each year, I really wish they would stop their association with HP. At least I feel a little better for signing this petition. #transrights #TransRightsAreHumanRights #lgbtqia #pride

It's been a tough 3 weeks filled with cancelled plans, non starters, and trying to organise things all while coping with some challenging circumstances. Normally, it wouldn't register, but things are compounding, so I found myself spiriling today. #poem #poetry

The ultimate kick in the guts: Time to ditch theย gatekeeping Despite the positive interactions within the LGBTQIA community, rejection from within can be deeply painful. It's why gatekeeping can leave people completly crushed. We need to recognise the possible harm and continue to spread inclusivity and reject divisive views, particularly regarding the medicalization and identity of Trans individuals.

After seeing some concerning posts after the supreme court discission regarding terminology I felt driven to talk about gatekeeping in our community and the harm it does to vulnerable people. #Trans #Transrights #LGBTQIA #Transcommunity #TransExperience #gatekeeping #Transjourney #Pride
