Friendship ended with tight fitting latex. Now loose fitting latex is my best friend.

Woman sitting on a green couch wearing a large latex skirt, corset, loose fitting blouse, open faced hood and headscarf.

There are a lot of things I could've done better both with the original photo and how I cleaned it up in lightroom but I'm not here to be overly self-critical. I'm out of practice, that's all.

Even when I lived in a rural town and people would look at me and go "you're not from around here are you" I could find a lot more commonality and solidarity with these people than a chronically online trans woman who lives 4,000 miles away who I've developed a toxic parasocial relationship with.

As an alleged elder trans woman who isn't really "in the Community" it's a slow realization that one facet of an identity is insufficient to form a healthy community. Being trans doesn't override everything else that you are no matter how much it seems that way when you're newly out.

Everyone talks about girl math but no one talks about boy math, which is when grindset bros do this shit and act like they've invented something genius

I really think he's going to win and it's a lone bright spot in an otherwise dismal political time.

I forget why I was in a latex dress at the time but you bet it pissed off a bunch of rich conservative transwomen which is exactly what I was going for.

Every time I see a video of Alok perform I think about that time I crashed their keynote speech at a fancy conference for rich trans people because I was hungry and wanted a free dinner.

Having dug into it more Swanberg is the first serious New Haven historian to share my opinion that George Alpert deserves as much of the blame for running the railroad into the ground as McGinnis and I feel so vindicated.

I WILL DIE ON THIS EXTREMELY ESOTERIC HILL I PROMISE THIS MATTERS.
