Being closeted is scary but also sometimes funny because at the height of my denial of being trans I angrily had the thought "moving to Berlin to just be a transsexual is so unoriginal, get new material" lol

Just got back from an experimental theater piece exploring trans identity at the English Theater Berlin starring @avelosongs.bsky.social and featuring an appearance by @susanstryker.bsky.social, because this is fucking Berlin and we don't give in to prejudice and fearmongering here. #operalabberlin

The most rewarding part of this project has been working with Susan Stryker - last May I was citing her work in my video essay about trans voices and now we’ve collaborated on a piece!

Just before last night’s premiere of “A Gude to Self-Synthesis,” a music theater piece I co-wrote with Evan Gardner and Opera Lab Berlin! Marius Legowski just gave a very kind review on FluxFM - we have two more shows to go, tonight and tomorrow at English Theatre Berlin 💗🏳️‍⚧️

It’s been 3 years since I realized that there was a difference between loving bears and wanting to be one myself 🐻💗🏳️‍⚧️

When I started transitioning, I didn't know who I was, just that I wasn't the gay-bear-in-training I previously thought. This is about that weird process of expressing my authentic self before I knew who that even was, all through an unhealthy obsession with voice: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aDG...
