Vent: I am loosing patience with (some) older people (60+) Who think because they are older the world must revolve around them. Then get upset when they get called out on it. I'm willing to give them some consideration, but that ends when they act like entitled white people.

About a year ago today I decided I neeed to transition, but knew I was not in a place emotionally, and otherwise to persue that goal. I made some changes and worked towards one goal there were some challengres but 5 months into transitoning, and I am finally in a neutral place.

Therapist recommended a local app. I got stuck on the add pictures of your profile. Realizing I still don't have pics of myself that I would want to show others, except one, but I still look like the wrong gender in that one. This is the transition that is often not acknowledged out loud.

Dear (white) Cis people If you feel the need to unload on your trans friend about feeling like people are treating you lesser because of *insert perceived reason* Please don't . Your pain does matter, however we are dealing with our own stuff and can't also deal with your stuff.

Initial thoughts on using T gel: It really smells, like really strong smell. I think I may need to buy an extra fan and/or wear a mask when applying it in the future.

After asking about bathrooms at play a local theatre is putting on brother-in-law told me they are 'degendering' bathrooms for their play run. Sometimes, it is that simple to be an ally. (Okay is at different location, their normal location has genderless washrooms).

Talking to person about upcoming appointment and he says: You sound a alot happier than you have been in the past. That's the thing having an achievable step forward is a huge thing, even if I know there will be challenges ahead. I finally feel like I am moving forward.

CW Given *looks down south* I really would like to have a stiff drink, however the sensible part of me knows that mixing new medication and alcohol right now is a bad idea. But hey,maybe this week was a good week to start anxiety medication.

Doctor: Why have you not done the medically necessary thing in many years?
Me: Extreme medical anxiety.
Doctor then proceeds to do the very painful but necessary thing to the thing that I do not want or need.

The struggle of wanting to start a new book but having a skip the que book on pre-order is coming out soon. Do you start a new book and hope to finish before pre-order? Do you wait to start a new book?

Maybe it is just my perception. But I always find it weird how people treat me differently in subtle ways whenever I go out in assembly required Boy-mode vs pretend girl mode.

Was asked recently what I would say to my (pre-puberty) self. More that I think about it the more it's not myself I would want to say something to but the adults in their life. Both along to thank certain ones and a few NSFW things to others.

Won a gift card to the local transit company, which will go towards next months bus pass. Best part is I entered using preferred instead of Deadname and did not think about it or the consequences of potentially outing myself to my landpeople, which for me is kind of a huge deal.
