The downside of wearing your heart on your sleeve is that it's an obvious weak spot during boss fights.
Being trans means being haunted by deadnamed past while they somehow have your gender marker correct.

Took a look at the Edmonton Folk Fest line up last night and noticed that Serena Ryder is serving some strong lesbian vibes. A big departure from how she used to present. 🤔

I get to exist as a real person starting now, report cards done. But first! Rest 😴

The NDP ran a campaign based on "UwU lewk how gewd a job we did with Justy T 👉👈" and got smeared across the table like a babies blueberry snack for their trouble.

I'm no strategist but when a life long NDP supporter leaves your party and is annoyed with you and your campaign, you've lost.

Hey if you clock someone, no you didn't. If you clock someone don't say that they look like Aphrodite and give them a lesson on Greek mythology.

I love being a femme at the mechanic, last time my brakes we're almost done, I checked them myself, they were fine. This time: same brakes, same mechanic, they're good. Dudes are full of shit and think girls are a ln easy mark.

A student said that I move with grace. The bruises on my legs disagree.

My employer apparently thinks ADHD can just... Cease? Or like I can be cured or something.

I'm so tired.

So I guess I'm a 34 DD now? It's been over 2 years since my last fitting but that's a lot more than k was expecting growth wise.

So the name change process in Germany requires you to use your current legal name in Germany for all correspondence. Which is no longer my legal name in Canada... So I needed to fill all the forms I filled out as if I was deadname.

Bureaucracy is a form of state violence.

Why didn't I get transition lenses sooner? Like, I think of all of the overcast days where my lenses still darken are days I would have been waffling as to whether I should drag my sunglasses out. I've had prescription sunnies my whole adult life. Explain why transitions are for nerds.

Moms hanging out with their trans femme kiddos gives me such joy 🥰

It's also remarkable that it doesn't turn me into a sad sack anymore.

Yesterday was my tenth anniversary. Today is TDoV.

I love this girl who married me and told me "okay then you're not a boy" when I first told her I was questioning my gender.

Happy anniversary @kazombie.bsky.social and a happy and non-invisible TDoV comrades!

I did my own brows for the first time in like, forever? I feel like I did a decent job.

One of the few photos that was snapped of me at AGM this year. We were ready for midriff Monday in honour of our opposition to dress codes motion that never hit the floor for... Reasons 😔

Just gotta keep at it I guess. Things are tough in the labour trenches.

Being in the labour union governance trenches (it's all the tears, terror and boredom of regular trenches with none of the "excitement") for 4 days put the fire back in my belly for labour activism. I was feeling really jaded but was reminded by cool people that it needn't be the way it is.

How long is the BCTF AGM hangover supposed to last? It's been two days. I felt a lot of feelings this AGM and feel like I actually made a difference on things that matter in my union for the first time in ages. I'm particularly proud of all the peeps who made the BC teachers queer caucus happen.

Do any writing humans (professionals or hobbyists) follow me? How do you start worki on short stories? I have all kinds of ideas bouncing around in my head but I feel like I always fail to get anywhere.

Being the person caring for my partner after surgery has me thinking about how normal I pretend to be at work. ADHD and queer masking at work is exhausting.
February 27, 2025 at 2:27 AM
I have the day off and I'm too exhausted to actually make use of it in any appreciable way.

I love being used up by capital and the career cult.

I feel like I'm bad at following up with friends and it's hurting those friendships. All while it feels like I'm penciling in friend-hangs 2 weeks in advance at the bare minimum. Did my parents have this problem in their thirties?

There's gonna be people in bad faith going 'bUt hE diDn'T SaY FuCK TruMP' and its like

He literally said 'The Revolution gonna be televised.' This was an incredibly political piece of performance art, and the brilliant part about it is that the Nazis won't clock 80% of it. That's powerful.

Sigh. Another rejection email. I feel like I should just start a little site to dump my poetry or something.
