They/them
I have to wear special compression garments after a surgery, and wearing them non-stop can hurt a bit under the armpits. Luckily, holding an Ikea Blåhaj under your arm helps quite effectively against the chafing/irritation.

Schöne Überraschung heute beim Besuch des #Magdeburger Doms: Kleine Ausstellung zur #FrauenLesbenbewegung in der #DDR.

I engaged in a personally relevant project this week after which I need to rest a bit. It is so worth it, but at the same time I am bored out of my mind! There is a limit in how many hours of living history documentaries I can watch in a day!

Currently changing all my documents to reflect my legal name, and found out that one of my former unis has a "Gender identity advisor" that doesn't just make sure you get a new diploma, but also knows how their database system works. I'm impressed!

Irgendwie habe ich momentan Glück mit den Locations in Düsseldorf. Beim letzten Besuch ein Termin im "Neuen Zollhof" - das Gehry-Gebäude, dessen Baustelle ich vor Ewigkeiten mal bei einer Exkursion besucht hatte. Und heute bin ich in einem fancy-schmanzy-alles-digital Hotel im Reissverschlusslook.

Ab morgen ist hier CSD und ich hab' nen Backstagepass!
(Genau wie alle anderen Volunteers, aber dann klingt das nicht mehr besonders oder exklusiv *lach*)

Not sure about other countries, but in Germany, handkerchiefs are gendered, with different sizes for men and women. May I present: Handkerchiefs in NB sizes ;)

Spannende Führung durch das Frankfurter Feuerwehrshaupquartiers. Super spannende Ausbildungsanlagen, inklusive Ubahnstation (mit Ubahnen!) und eimem nachgebauten Strassensegment.

Held Zoom office hours today and a student showed off her cat! The Zoom teaching years were awful, but I kinda miss Zoom pets!

Ich habe einen grösseren Vorrat an (eingelegten) schwarzen Walnüssen. Was macht man aus denen denn leckeres?

copying from Hannah Sawall on twitter:
I'm looking for people to interview for my MA thesis on pronouns

You're over 18, speak English (or German) and are familiar with pronoun sharing, or know people who might want to participate?

[email] hannah.sawall@stud.uni-due.de and/or share this call 🐦🐦

Within a fairly short period, a bank, a post office and a supermarket closed in my street. There are plenty more supermarkets around but the bank & post office hurt.

Two more cartoons about my fear of taking too few books on holiday. (Yes, I could get a kindle: but I still prefer to read, and draw, paper books).

It is sooooo weird to sign documents such as author agreements and invoices for workshops without having to constantly remind oneself "This is paperwork, sign with your deadname. That's for tax purposes, sign with your deadname. This is legally binding, sign with your deadname..."

So richtig feiern kann ich erst, wenn der Bescheid angekommen ist, aber die TSG Anhörung am Amtsgericht Frankfurt war ganz relaxed :)

Preparing my own little gender repeal party:
District court appointment? ✔
Two written expert opinions confirming my gender? ✔
Sparkling wine cooling in the fridge? ✔
Not quite sure about the dress code, tbh. But it's way to warm for a suit, so that's that.

Habe meinen Urlaub beantragt und stelle sicherheitshalber schon mal ein paar 'to read' Stapel bereit. Sind ja nur noch ein paar Wochen...

Every time I think this short & sweet article is nearly finished, something clinks together in my brain and it spews forth another paragraph.
