If the 1st one didn't hit I dont think the 2nd one will endear you any. I really liked the first, but I found the 2nd less accessible and less grounded. If I get your frustration with part 1, the 2nd is just gonna show you a variation of the shit you didnt like in the 1st but again and more

And then excitedly announced his pleasure at being the first to congratulate Ms. [my full name]. I'll never forget him being there when I felt my most vulnerable. It's been a tough time, but I've also been part of so many powerful positive interactions I can't help but feel big feelings sometimes

After barely explaining he waved us in "We'll take care of ya!" and sat me down and processed everything for me right there. He told a story about how a friend of his chose her new name, asked me about mine, and conducted the hearing all within the span of 15 mins.

I got my name changed this year just before inauguration and there was an error in my paperwork that got me dropped from the docket day of. We were told by the clerk to leave and reapply which might take weeks. We went to the courtroom anyway just in case. The judge saw us: "Hey! Need help?"

I really love this piece! Do you sell prints?

I just had a cat pass away at the beginning of December and this makes me all wistful but like.. in a good way.

What. Three ribs?? That's so many! I don't think I've been nearly worried enough about slipping in the shower.

That's so hard. I'm sorry.

Yeah -- Even now, every new procedure I hear/learn about reopens a question that has legit delayed my decision making around what surgeries I might be interested in. Am I chasing after something because it'll make ME feel better or because it feels like 'the thing you do' as a trans woman? Rough.

fuck yes

Kinda melancholy, kinda beautiful to be at a spot to wonder what your kid self would be wishing for now. I'd never framed it that way for myself before.

Every time I think about my kid self meeting me and whether he'd like me -- makes me wanna cry, I never get very far with it.

That fifth dog tho is gonna be immaculate.

Jessie or Lizzie! I'm like 99% settled on Josie but sometimes I wonder if Lizzie would have gotten better at skateboarding than me

I really love this. We did something similar for our cat Milo two years ago. I'm struggling tonight knowing that we'll be doing the same with her younger sister, Chloe, after saying goodbye tomorrow. I feel like I've forgotten the soft ritual of having a small shrine, thank you for the reminder. 💜

That's tough. I hesitate to tell an artist what to do with their art or how to make it accessible, especially if its part of their livelihood. I feel like its up to y'all. I do agree with another reply, make sure it's visible/pushed that it's in multiple places, especially if you have preferred ones

I really enjoyed Double Exposure, like you said it felt very much a continuation of LiS in style, vibe, and earnestness to the point of cringe.. Which is kinda what I wanted from Max's story? I was really surprised by the reaction after release, it felt like they were seeing something I just couldnt

Uh. I hate that. 😬

Here's hoping that if things do change, your community is not gone, it's just different. Different can still can be worth grieving over, for sure, not saying it isn't. But our relationships and behaviors within them change all the time, it's usually slow tho so feels less scary as it happens.
