Growing Up with Michelle Trachtenberg: A Tribute to the Girl Who Shaped a Generation
Hearing about Michelle Trachtenberg’s passing at 39 today immediately had me shook.

I wrote a piece on Michelle Trachtenberg, a woman who, not just I but my entire generation, grew up with. She was more than a TV figure—she was an icon, a legend whose influence shaped who I am today. She will be deeply missed. If you're interested, you can read it here:
i’ve been so behind on movies, but sorry, baby is still my movie of the year. no contest. it hit me so real and so raw — shattered me, healed me, and stitched together pieces i didn’t know were still broken. i’m forever grateful for that film. 💗

not only would this change my life for the better, both financially and mentally, but i would also feel so much safer there than here in the states for obvious reasons. and most of my family background is from there, and i studied the language in college, so i speak it fluently. it’s just perfect :)
I applied for a job abroad almost two months ago, and I figured too much time had passed to hear back. But yesterday, I actually got a response and they want to chat one day next week! I’m ecstatic. This would completely change my life

It’s been a wild, painful, and beautiful experience that I wouldn’t change for the world. #transwoman #lgbtqia+ 🏳️⚧️
what going through a second puberty as a trans girl feels like
The first time around, puberty felt like betrayal.

Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins
There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"
