Oh hey, new followers! 👋

I’m Rowan, a trans guy from Toronto, Canada. I’m 48 and have been on HRT for just over a year. It’s been the best year of my life.

It’s never too late to transition and live the life that feels right to you. I’ll make sure to remind you of that from time to time.

Boundaries are a hot topic! What do you think about our take on them in this episode of Unboxing it? @mavenofmayhem.bsky.social
28: Are we setting too many boundaries?
And is it making us lonelier?

Day 20 after top surgery.

I just (carefully!) rolled the trash bins out to the curb this morning without worrying about hiding my breasts under a baggy coat or something because I DONT HAVE BREASTS ANYMORE GUYS AND ITS GREAT 😭

This is what I kept thinking when walking home earlier.

Democrats need to show voters that having Democratic control of the Senate makes a difference.

Cutting this deal only tells voters that it doesn't.
2026 prospects do not feel as bright,

given that caving now will undoubtedly launch and strengthen intra-/third- party challenges,

as Dems again remind voters that, regardless of the stakes, they don't, and won't, fight their corner.

A happy lil’ update on our trans-owned and operated coffee shop and wine bar in Toronto. We’re getting sooooo close to opening! 🥰

Hello! I haven’t talked about this here, but I figure I probably should. After 32 years, my wife and I decided to take different paths and redefine our relationship. But it’s been a really good thing for both of us. ❤️‍🩹

16 days post-op. I’ve never felt better.

I mean I can’t lift more than ten pounds and I get tired more easily, but mentally? Amazing. I feel amazing.

🫡 Day 11 post top-surgery:

Today I’m on a mission to walk to the grocery store and purchase sausage buns. Just those because I can’t lift more than 10lbs.

I feel wildly active.

This guy told me I’m going to burn because I got top surgery. I guess he’s never heard of using sunscreen on beach days. Poor fella.

Six day post-top surgery.
The last binder I’ll ever wear.

Day 3 post top-surgery. I got dressed and (slowly) walked to the coffee shop this afternoon. A short trip out of the house to get some sunshine.

On the way, I told Dani this is the most comfortable I’ve ever felt in my body.

Hi there. I had top surgery today!
🥰

Sorry there’s no caption on the video. I was still a little, um, high. 😅

HAPPY 10TH BIRTHDAY BLUE 💙

Is it raining today? Yes.

Have I gotten out of my PJs? No.

Am I throwing pizza in the oven for dinner? First I’m going to see if the dog will do it for me but I don’t think it’ll work.

Whenever you feel like the world is made up of all bad stuff I want you to remember senior dogs ❤️

In case you needed some good news today, we secured our financing for our trans-owned and operate cafe today!!

This is a huge milestone. We’re thrilled the bank and the federal government believed in this dream and the plan to make it come alive. Can’t wait to open our doors soon.

Sometimes you have a double ear infection so your mom and dad have to bring you a friend to help you feel better ❤️‍🩹

Once upon a time I had really cool hair but also a really sad heart so I prioritized making my heart smile. 🏳️‍⚧️
