Just a warning for anyone who wanders in here because I said something cool somewhere about comic books, RPGs, or libraries... my feed here is mostly me babbling about videogames (or my transition) 🤣

It's Christmas shopping time and people are looking for books for kids and teens, so let me do a little station ID and talk about what I do. Quotes and RS appreciated

Sometimes I ask myself: Is this too far to go for a joke?

And I always answer: No. It is never too far. In fact, there might be an even funnier joke over there. Go check.

<collapses into miserable sobs as Mia articulates the fear she's lived with for the past year>
And the point here is to lock onto a vulnerable person with responsibility but no job security and hound her until she is forced out of a job, trying to make it unacceptable to be openly trans in the workplace.

Any other analysis that doesn't recognize this is a faulty analysis. /end

I understand that there are a lot of people out there who think they have good intentions and love to take their ideological opponents in good faith because it makes them seem fair and reasonable and I truly cannot overstate how dangerous this is to trans people and how much they should stop

Don't know how I lucked into a mom who both supports me as her daughter *and* understands my taste in jewelry enough to get me birthday presents I actually look forward to wearing 🥺😭

Finally read this one last night and I am SO CURIOUS which (presumably) theoretical volume of GALAXY would cover her college years.

Because I got to learn more about the character we meet in this story.

It's been a really really good day.

Thanks for that.

Here's hoping I have at least another 16,400 or so in me.

A lot of transphobic whataboutism is just straight up trying to make being a bigot sound like a legit position asked in good faith.

Nope, same old horseshit.

Got a text out of the blue from an old bar friend I haven't spoken to in quite a while, addressed to my deadname, checking in because he hadn't seen me at the library his last few visits.

Told him I might've been there, just a bit unrecognizable, along with a picture, and 'I go by <name> now' 🤣

Not a bad birthday.

Got good sleep, took a good 60ish minute walk with one of my nieces, made a bunch of bracelets for friends, and now (fingers crossed) a quiet night at home.

First full birthday-to-birthday as me, nice little milestone.

The important thing to remember is that, technically, every day you're older than the day before.

It's like a normal Old Fashioned, but with walnut bitters and maple syrup!

Had a really lovely day, feeling productive and loved and pretty and so I'm celebrating with a wee tasty drink 💜

It's rather neat to catch sight of myself in the mirror, clean-faced, PJ top unbuttoned, and just see a woman.
