Naughty and nice are not always mutually exclusive.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: Viewing online photos of joyful trans women becoming their authentic selves and living full lives. No matter how much hate we face, we all deserve to be ourselves and find our happy endings. 12-7-25.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: Saturday Night Live. Weekend Update’s Colin Yost is deliciously hilarious as Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth. I would very much enjoy watching Yost stretch his comedic chops in other sketches as well. 12-6-25.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: Wheel of Fortune. On the December 4 episode, Medina resident Kari Deeks won $23,921, which total included a Disney Wish Cruise. It’s always great to have a contestant from my home town to root for. 12-5-25.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: Paul Reinman. I’m gaining a new appreciation for the work of this comics legend as I see his art in ACG’s Adventures into the Unknown. He worked with ghost pencillers from time to time, but the final results are full of life. 12-4-15.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: Chic Stone. I loved his inking Kirby at Marvel. But, as I read Adventures into the Unknown from the 1960s, where he usually drew the lead, I’m bowled over by his ability to draw action, drama and humor with amazing skill. Truly an underappreciated comics talent. 12-3-25.

[2/2] Almost every day brings disappointment that not every one I care for is on board with my journey. And none of the above is unique to me. Be kind.

[1/2] Something to share before I go to bed. I will never not express the trans joy I feel each and every day. However...transition is also an exhausting endeavor. Almost every day brings new attacks on the trans community. Almost every day brings impatience that I'm not as far along as I want to be

Folks here frequently ask why anyone continues to post on X. I'm not going to describe Elon Musk's platform as anything other than a cesspool of right-wing vomit. However, a great many of my trans and LGBTQ+ friends still use X and it's how I keep in touch with them. They are very important to me.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: Adventures into the Unknown #147 [March 1964]. β€œI’ve Got to Protect Nettie!” by Richard Hughes and Paul Reinman. Though it’s problematic that the protagonist is a Confederate officer, this tale has a lot of heart. It’s why I love this era of ACG comics so much. 12-2-25.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: When a reader responds to one of these things that make me happy recommendations by telling me they loved it or they’ll check it out because I recommended it. I take that trust very seriously and with considerable gratitude. 11-30-25.

A good therapy session often leaves me emotionally exhausted with my brain firing on all cylinders. My journey is neither easy or without peril, but such sessions give me the tools and knowledge to continue. I am always Jenny and Jenny gets better and stronger every day.

I haven't read the other two yet, but the DC Book of Pride was wonderful and highly recommended.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY. Adventures into the Unknown #51-58 (January-August 1954]. With 3-D comics enjoying a brief boom, ACG artist Harry Lazaurs launched "TrueVision" a process including black borders and zipatone to create a 3-D effect without glasses. It made for a fun look. 11-29-25

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: Blue Beetle #51 [August 1965] by Joe Gill, Bill Fraccio and Tony Tallrico. β€œMentor the Magnificent” stands out from the usual goofy stories of this era with a tragic villain driven by low self-esteem. It’s sort of moving. 11-28-25.

When a CIS white male Christian murders people, Trump and the Republicans chalk it up as a fluke. When an immigrant commits a crime, all immigrants are targeted though, lately, Trump and his cult have been calling them migrants to further dehumanize them.
