Hot Wet American Fan Theory

Being trans means being haunted by deadnamed past while they somehow have your gender marker correct.

Took a look at the Edmonton Folk Fest line up last night and noticed that Serena Ryder is serving some strong lesbian vibes. A big departure from how she used to present. 🤔

I get to exist as a real person starting now, report cards done. But first! Rest 😴

It was brutal. They need to clean house but they probably won't learn from this.

The NDP ran a campaign based on "UwU lewk how gewd a job we did with Justy T 👉👈" and got smeared across the table like a babies blueberry snack for their trouble.

I'm no strategist but when a life long NDP supporter leaves your party and is annoyed with you and your campaign, you've lost.

Hey if you clock someone, no you didn't. If you clock someone don't say that they look like Aphrodite and give them a lesson on Greek mythology.

I love being a femme at the mechanic, last time my brakes we're almost done, I checked them myself, they were fine. This time: same brakes, same mechanic, they're good. Dudes are full of shit and think girls are a ln easy mark.

I'll shoot you a message.

I'll go to the beach with you. Pools are the places that spook me.

A student said that I move with grace. The bruises on my legs disagree.

you get to whale on Italian blackshirts in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. rad.

Also it really doesn't engage with Adult ADHD beyond casting aspersions at the validity of our diagnosis. Adults with ADHD were kids with undiagnosed ADHD and with the supports that I had available and medication I could have moved mountains.

Found the article. Fuck that's angry making!

Oh God did I miss something? I think they're blinding following policy mostly, I'm hoping I'll find out more tomorrow.

My employer apparently thinks ADHD can just... Cease? Or like I can be cured or something.

I'm so tired.

So I guess I'm a 34 DD now? It's been over 2 years since my last fitting but that's a lot more than k was expecting growth wise.

The downside of wearing your heart on your sleeve is that it's an obvious weak spot during boss fights.

I wish I had bed head that looked that good. Mine turns into a matted mess.

So the name change process in Germany requires you to use your current legal name in Germany for all correspondence. Which is no longer my legal name in Canada... So I needed to fill all the forms I filled out as if I was deadname.

Bureaucracy is a form of state violence.

Why didn't I get transition lenses sooner? Like, I think of all of the overcast days where my lenses still darken are days I would have been waffling as to whether I should drag my sunglasses out. I've had prescription sunnies my whole adult life. Explain why transitions are for nerds.

Moms hanging out with their trans femme kiddos gives me such joy 🥰

It's also remarkable that it doesn't turn me into a sad sack anymore.

Yesterday was my tenth anniversary. Today is TDoV.

I love this girl who married me and told me "okay then you're not a boy" when I first told her I was questioning my gender.

Happy anniversary @kazombie.bsky.social and a happy and non-invisible TDoV comrades!

It's a lot to swallow though. I get it. 😂

If you're so inclined I didn't see much benefit from boofing them and went back to taking them by mouth.

I did my own brows for the first time in like, forever? I feel like I did a decent job.

I mean we heard some shit that made my face do that this past week. Also I'm sorry I was focusing on how flattering the photos were for me and forgot about others.

One of the few photos that was snapped of me at AGM this year. We were ready for midriff Monday in honour of our opposition to dress codes motion that never hit the floor for... Reasons 😔

Just gotta keep at it I guess. Things are tough in the labour trenches.

Being in the labour union governance trenches (it's all the tears, terror and boredom of regular trenches with none of the "excitement") for 4 days put the fire back in my belly for labour activism. I was feeling really jaded but was reminded by cool people that it needn't be the way it is.

I look like such a goober in that photo. Front row, in profile. 🤦‍♀️

How long is the BCTF AGM hangover supposed to last? It's been two days. I felt a lot of feelings this AGM and feel like I actually made a difference on things that matter in my union for the first time in ages. I'm particularly proud of all the peeps who made the BC teachers queer caucus happen.
