This really resonated with me, and so I want to share it with all of you.

"I hope you have the courage to choose yourself over and over. I hope you have the courage to move forward, not backard. To choose growth over comfort. To choose possibility over the past...progression isn't always easy."
Seriously, you look wonderful. 😊 Hope you are feeling great, too!
Estrogen is powerful.

"Jabba is dead. Jabba remains dead. And we have killed him."

Seriously though, HRT feels like alchemy or magic some days.

Feb. 2020 VS Nov. 2025.
(Tried to use 1:1 comparison photos; same room, similar lighting and camera angle, and no makeup).

Élise that is one insane glow-up, girl!! 🤩
Top tier glow-up! 🤩 Estrogen really feels like alchemy sometimes.

2025 Halloween (10 months on HRT, absolute queen)

Be patient with the process. A caterpillar doesn't become a butterfly overnight.

Hope you're okay. Enjoy the peace and quiet away from social media, have a great Halloween.
Amber really inspires a lot of is. We may never meet in person, but I hope she knows the amount of joy she's helped to create for many eggs.
Halo - the flagship exclusive of the Xbox since 2001 - will soon be releasing on PS5?

Man, Xbox as a console brand is so cooked at this point.

Watching Phil Spencer self-immolate what has been my favourite and exclusive console series since Sega's self-destruction is a sad thing to watch.
This warms my heart. 😊 It's wonderful to see how far you've both come.
It turned out really well! Great cosplay! 😊
10 months on HRT. 😊
Dunno what is going on with my head, but methinks the doc tampering with my HRT regiment is having unforseen consequences...
Y'all look great! 😁 Looks like it was a fun shopping trip!
Europe should be investing in developing its own capabilities and domestic production. Cannot fathom why there is still such a heavy reliance on buying American when the USA under Trump is a totally unreliable ally and partner.

EU needed to use this window of opportunity to gain strategic autonomy.
Thank you so much! The cat stockings and butterfly arm warmers are from Hot Topic.

Got the dress for free from a friend! Clothes exchanges are an awesome way of finding some stellar outfits!!

Unintentionally went to Thanksgiving like a "goth girl". 😅
It's technically tomorrow, but my family had it today. Happy early Canadian Thanksgiving! 🇨🇦🦃
Omg a matching pair!! You 2 are so cute! 😊
Experimenting with accents and their impact on voice #feminization because, why the hell not? 😄

Prepare for some cringe, folks.

FYI, no formal voice feminization training yet. This is just the range I generally carry myself with in conversation vs. an accented (British/Australian? 🤷‍♀️) version.
Got in 2 helldives before work this morning with a rookie. Seychel Beach will be liberated, 1 block at a time.

Got froze out 2 minutes before drop ship landed 2nd game. Managed to rejoin, get my samples and evac just in time.

Made a new helldiver friend.

I freakin love this game.

Gradually converting my historian's bookcase into a nerd shelf. 😁 Just those 2 shelves worth of books stacked into 1 bin was... monstrously heavy.

And I'm running outta room. I haven't even put out most of my Rogue One, ESB, or ROTJ figures yet...😅

I hear you, sister. 💯%

Had a pretty big breakdown about it yesterday, first one in a while... Never asked to be this way, but there's just no hiding it or suppressing it.

We gotta be ourselves, live our best lives, and hope no violence comes upon us for simply existing.
It could just be your body is more resistant to spiro, or your T levels are higher. You were a fitness buff pre-transition, no? Diet and age difference might also be factors.

When I opted for patch estrogen, my doc said I was unlikely to be able to do mono-therapy. Now she's suggesting I try. 🤷‍♀️
