Hi! There’s a lot of new people here!

I’m Sascha! I’m a novelist, poet, service dog handler, #uglydog, #swiftie, and truly massive nerd. This account is for all of those plus life rambling and sometimes politics. Amounts of each may vary, I am a squirrel on caffeine. Hopefully in an endearing way.

June might be over but Pride is every day; especially right now. Courtesy of @peculiarityshop.bsky.social, which remains the best jewelry shop on the internet.

I’m not over here a ton at the moment, but I AM on this list. So thrilled!!!

Absolutely thrilled with this beautiful piece from @caztastrophe.bsky.social of @peculiarityshop.bsky.social! I’ve never commissioned jewelry before and it came out absolutely perfect, including fit which NEVER happens. I CANNOT overstate how much I love this. BEST graduation present to myself.

One of my #ofmdcraftfair winnings arrived safely, courtesy of @poisinpen.bsky.social! I didn’t realize it was a mirror, but that feels even more apropos. I need these words now more than ever. I feel like other people might too.

Local space obsessed trans guy got NEW TREASURES from the @peculiarityshop.bsky.social mystery box, including BADASS SCI-FI ARMOR NECKLACE. Words cannot express how much I love all of it. Especially being low vision, all of it is so tactile as well as beautiful…it’s PERFECT.

As a trans man with the world being what it is right now, plus my plan for after college experiencing some very scary turbulence as it changes course, this is what I needed to see.

They said he couldn’t go to Nome. *He fucking went to Nome anyway.*

I’m sobbing.
They fucking did it. They mushed to Nome.

PSA FOR NC TRANS FOLKS! A 🧵

You don’t need proof of gender reassignment surgery to update your birth certificate! I know, I thought you did too! But I found other options buried in the application to modify a birth certificate itself, on the vital records website. You can do the following.

To be clear I am not accusing the original poster here on BlueSky of anything, I’m speaking to the image. But the story in said image doesn’t add up logically.

This is most likely disinformation or that particular agent being a transphobic bastard. State docs, including licenses and birth certificates, are not beholden to federal regulations. Gender markers have nothing to do with adoption. There are no reports of people being detained. Do not panic.

I went downstairs and they all looked and sounded like they’d ate lemons. I’m dying. This is incredible.
My grandmother sprung a family photo on me the day after my arthritis meds (when I am very sick) and timed it so that I wasn’t able to wash my binder last night.

She did not realize I own two now.

I am wearing the most fuck you outfit possible in this stupid fucking photo.

New friend from @leighharlen.bsky.social! He is delightfully soft and squishy, and looks like he has never once had a thought in his entire life. 15/10. Name TBD, I am open to suggestions.

I have bought two necklaces, an ear cuff, and now a bracelet from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social in the span of two weeks. I’m not sure if my mother (to which the packages are going) or whoever on that team is shipping the orders will be more alarmed.

Half are presents, but still.

There’s a key distinction between saying “things are really horrible and bleak BUT we can work together to survive this” and “everything is totally fucked forever and we should give up now and wait for death.”

It’s also galling that I am probably the most vulnerable member of my extended friend group and the only one who was at all calm until VERY recently.

One saw me on the 7th and immediately started sobbing about how I was going to murdered. Another demanded I withdraw my grad app to UT Austin.
I am trying to be patient because I 100% get that people are terrified but I am really struggling with all this knee-jerk public defeatism from other liberals and leftists right now

i am once again reiterating that being transphobic towards someone who is a transphobe is still transphobia.

also, under no scenario is being a woman, trans, and/or queer an insult.

Elon had a trans daughter who disowned him because of how horrible he was to her.

do better. self crit.
The Elonia bit is tremendously unfunny and extremely cringe.

Tag yourself with the job you’d actually have in the Star Wars universe given your occupation.

I love this account but also Jesus Christ they keep launching targeted nuclear missiles straight at my face
What else are you going to do? Fall back on your original plan of being a marine biologist? Of course not, you would have wiped out entire ecosystems. You can barely even get yourself to drink water regularly! You're a creative writer.

Assuming all invoices get paid, the auction raised $13,422.37!!! Thank you everybody, not to get all gross and earnest on main, but the response to the auction from bidders and item donors put some actual fucking tears in my eyes and some healing on my heart. Thank you thank you thank you everybody.

FUCK YEAH! And now I’ve paid it back to Trans Lifeline for keeping me here, too.

Finding out that a pharmacist with a vendetta at MINIMUM hid her mistake by lying to me, at worst actively filled the incorrect prescription to begin with when I tried to get said prescription refilled correctly was not on my bingo card for today. Jesus fucking Christ. Love small towns!
