I'm 58 years old and transgender. I drive truck for a living, traveling all over the USA. Squirrel (my dog) and I have been on the road together for 7 years now. I truly just want to live the rest of my life authentically. I'm just tired of the hatred.
I wish I didn't think so much. People who don't think seem to have a great life.

Just read that Harvard took down all websites for women, minorities and LGBTQ students. Churches are going to be allowed to make political stances. Can the US last until the end of this?

I've decided to get my name legally changed

Just had my 58th birthday. I can say that you can learn who you are at any age. And you often don't even realize you've learned until you look back and see how you were presenting in the past.

Nature is incredible. Not only do we get beautiful things like this, but we have the ability to consciously appreciate it.

I posted my annual Independence Day message on Facebook. Somehow, it didn't sound very celebratory.

Please listen this 🙏. It reads like a MAGA checklist

I don't know how old this news is, but it's good news in a dark world.

Yesterday, I received the most affirming treatment I've had since coming out. Some people at work said, "we'll just call you Brenda if you don't mind."
I almost cried on the spot.

You know, there is a silver lining to the insanity of the MAGA Congress. They are sealing their fates in the 26 elections, provided we have them.

My family has fought in every major American conflict since the Revolutionary War. Why can't this Congress stand up for what is right? Why do we have to watch this regime destroy our country? When does Congress do their job?

Has anyone noticed the groups that have "Freedom, "Rights", or "Patriotic" in their name usually stand for none of it?

Im not sure, but it seems that we are living in the most uncertain times on modern history. That society is at a precipice, can still continue but will fall if not extremely careful.

The 42nd Infantry Division band played at Taco's birthday parade. They are a badass unit with a lot of history. However, they are known as the Rainbow Brigade. I smile inside.

Ever just been tired? I feel like I did after 35 days straight outside the wire, hauling jet fuel in Iraq in April 04.

We need to keep on mind that most people are good. There are pockets of hate, but they are not the norm, as they and the media would have you think.

Happy Pride, everyone. I've been holding a low profile on Bluesky. The format is a little odd to me. However, I'm going to change this. As an introduction, I am trans. I didn't do anything to be trans so I guess I'm more grateful than proud. Grateful that I found myself after 55 years.

Discover who your children are. Don't dictate who they are

I just tried to set up an appointment with optometry at the VA.
6 month waiting list. Thank you, Collins. Removing my gender affirming care really fixed your system. I hope the Fuhrer's rear tastes good, you piece of bigoted sht.

A bully can not be reasoned with. A bully lives by force. The only thing they respect is force. All 3 branches of the government have capitulated to the bully because they don't understand this. I hate violence, but I hate bullying more. When do we force the bully?

I fail to understand why trans people, about 1% of the population, are being targeted as evil. We are doing our best to be good people. ALL scientific evidence supports gender affirming care and acceptance as reality. Just leave us alone, and maybe try being nice...

While the MAGATS might control the military and law enforcement, Federal Marshalls fall under the Judicial Branch. Get to work people.

I've noticed a disturbing trend. On Fb, I have seen a decrease in interaction from my friends list. I'm hoping that it's because I post a lot of trans stuff and my right wing friends have just stopped commenting. I hope it's not the Facebook gods minimizing my style on their sacred Trump ground.
