This is convenient, since I just finished my re-read of Magic’s Riot. 💖

What is up with that keyboard layout? Looks sketchy.

Two of my best friends in high school were cis girls who didn’t even hesitate to have ‘girl talk’ with me around. There’s basically no way any of us knew I was trans back then, but their immediate acceptance as “one of the girls” almost certainly saved my life.

Anyway, I guess what I'm trying to say is this:

Even if I don't talk about it very much, discovering that I'm a lesbian is one of the best things that ever happened to me. I love it more than words can say.

Even if I feel self-conscious about claiming that space for myself.

The transition didn't make my life easier but it did my life worth fighting for

This dropped while I was in the waiting room at my therapists. He came out to get me and I had to be like "Hang on, let me finish this page.' 😄

I walked a baby trans girl through her first dose of E two days ago. It is srill very much possible.

And if they do eventually try and kill me about it, at least I get to be myself for as long as I can first.

Honestly, this may be what I'd need to actually figure out makeup. 😄

I even knew that I was a girl at that point, but I definitely didn’t think I’d be confident enough to wear a skirt or use nail polish.

Yep. I saw the comic & went from “Oh shit, am I trans?” to “Oh shit, I think I’m trans.” to “Oh shit, I’m definitely trans and I need to tell my wife.” in the space of about a week or so. Same day I told her, I scheduled my first therapy appointment, and set up an appt for HRT about a month later.
