As the anti-transgender panic continues to escalate — and as many of the bills seen over the last four years migrate from statehouses to the national level — states that have led the charge have shown no inclination to slow down. Instead of resting on the discrimination they have already enacted, many are pressing forward with new and increasingly punitive ways to target transgender people.

This offered a very interesting peek into trans culture in the 90s which I loved a lot. I like how Feinberg speaks about living openly as a genderqueer person, I related to that a lot.
In approximately 22 hours I will tell a therapist that I am for sure not a cis man and I'm tired of pretending and that I want help. This will be the first time I have said this to anyone, I suppose technically barring this post right here. ... read full post

I'm trans femme, considering hrt. By a long way, most reports of what it's like say: within the first week I felt different emotionally /in my mind. Feelings seem to vary from calmer, to the author feeling more herself. This initial euphoric feeling is reported to fade over time, usually. ... read full post
Ever since coming out to my dad, the relationship between me and him got very strained because he's not accepting of it. Over the past 1.5 years we slowly drifted further and further, to the point of us being minimal contact. Up until recently, he sometimes invited me to smaller family gatherings (with my siblings who I'm on good terms with) but most of the time, I didn't come. Most of the time I had a proper reason but I could have also made it work if I would have wanted to. ... read full post

So I have this abstract wallpaper (see link) on my phone that has the trans colours and would like something similar for my 1440p desktop, but can't find anything for that resolution online. Could anyone point me in the right direction? Or maybe have an idea how I could upscale the wallpaper I have to 1440p? I'm a bit out of the loop on upscaling though..

After 5 months, I guess I've fully cracked. Now I'm wondering about updating my professional website, that cesspool LinkedIn, etc.
I'm a Dev (yes, I use Arch) and I used to teach. I guess I'm nervous about having to tell my old students and coworkers.
I’d love to hear strategies, lessons learned, or anything that made the process smoother.
I haven’t started the process of changing my name and gender marker on any of my documents yet. Between having my birth certificate from a very anti-trans state, and now the Supreme Court allowing the government to deny us changing our gender markers on passports, is there even a point in me trying to change my documents? I feel like, best case scenario I have a mix of updated and out-of-date documents, which feels like it would just create more confusion and difficulty. ... read full post
