Transitions never end. I came out in 2020 and started my medical transition in 2013. I jumped in püssy first and am just getting my trachea shave today! Everyone follows their own process at their own time. It’s not a race, it’s a dance. Enjoy it! 💃🏼

I love people. Google maps lets you report on road conditions. Last night I had to drive through the San Clemente border patrol check point and and I noticed several reports for an “unplowed road”. This is genius.

This was the first scene I directed for #QuantumLeap, from the ep I wrote about #Transkids in sports (112, “Let Them Play”). We shot it on Veterans Day and Caitlin Bassett, who played Addison, is a veteran. She improvised this monologue on set. More relevant today than any of us could have imagined.
