Your most problematic friend’s least problematic friend.

Bad at capitalism.

Posting about IRL, so you don't have to think about everything else.

I stared at my laptop for a bit, thinking I should play a game, but I decided to read instead. I think I made the right choice.

Tonight, I cooked breaded Babybel cheese in the air fryer. They melted, but they were good.

It is trans day of remembrance, and I am not sure how to articulate it yet. Being trans is like experiencing a Groundhog Day of unnecessary loss.

Tonight I made myself a cucumber bowl with Greek yoghurt, garlic salt, tuna, and sriracha.

Elon Musk is on stage right now talking about a post-scarcity future and sustainable ecosystems. Wild work considering that he started the year out at DOGE.

This ruling puts trans people in danger, and it serves no purpose other than animus. Finding peace and safety in this country is an exhausting journey.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court granted the Trump administration's request to enforce its discriminatory passport policy while our lawsuit makes its way through the courts.

This decision undermines the freedom of transgender, non-binary, and intersex people to have our IDs reflect who we are.

Brenda and I celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Brewcity Bruisers. I was a referee.

I thought this photo was cute as fuck, and less than an hour later, someone called me “sir.”

On the bright side, I got my second surgery letter, so this “sir” is going to have a vagina when the schedule wills it.

Eat shit haters.

What’s up nerds? [Complement] I am trying to figure out out to enjoy this platform, so I freaked out and purged my following. I mostly likely made mistakes, so please message me if I don’t follow you and you make banger content. 💕

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.
White People’s Performative Ignorance Is Exhausting—Opinion
Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

I don't know about anyone else, but I think trans Latina women should get a break.

Can we have that? Can we not get fucking kidnapped off the street or murdered? Do we not deal with enough bullshit from "allies" and the community at large that we have to go through this too?

Hope Alice is ok.

I found out today that I can’t schedule the consult for bottom surgery until I get two letters of readiness. I’m devastated. I thought I needed one for the consult and one for the surgery.

I don’t want to wait longer to schedule this. I am heartbroken and I don’t have the energy to do anything.

I hope the people who follow this account enjoy this, because I am going to disappear for months again, I am sure.

As a Polish-American, this quote taught me something about myself. My grandma was always full of melancholy, and despite my joy, the gloom always follows me and bleeds into my creative work. It turns out it is genetic. 😄🌧️
