My friend has a fantastic-sounding book out on Tuesday that also happens to be his Adult debut, but he's in the LA area and obviously promo has fallen to the wayside, so I'm gonna shout it out on his behalf. Trans man meets younger self through magical bookstore! bookshop.org/a/2228/97800... 🌈📚

Well, 2024 NWSL Championship is in the books. Was so proud to host here in KC. Had a busy but great weekend at a number of related events, and then the game! Love me a good weekend filled with women's sports.

So proud of my team and their amazing season. KC til I die! Excited for us to show out next week when the NWSL Championship and all the accompanying events come to town.

Feel like I'm limping to the "finish" right now, which is the NWSL Championship weekend and a week off of school. Oh, and a Friendsgiving! Hoping I can recharge and reset and feel better about things on the other side.
