Hello, Bluesky! I’m Steph, a 30-year-old Greek Cypriot bisexual trans man living in London.

I’m a writer, poet, video editor, and animal lover.

I adore Jurassic Park, tattoos, wine, rum, and my LGBT+ community.

Please boost this post so I can find some new pals! 🥰

He is wearing a pink and green Jurassic Park-inspired button-down shirt, black cargo trousers, and lime green/yellow Jurassic Park sneakers.

This is Tux. He is the cutest black hole we have ever seen. And we thought you should see him too. 12/10
a solid black dachshund puppy sits on some white carpet and looks up at the camera. the pup’s fur and the photo’s contrast combine to make it impossible to see any distinguishing features of the puppy’s body; he’s just one little vantablack splotch in the middle of the frame. only his little brown eyes sparkle with a few reflections of the light around him.

Look at Goose’s tiny crossed paws 😭

2 years on T vs 8 years on T 🥰

Plus 6 years post-top surgery 🏳️‍⚧️

Can’t believe how much my chest has changed and how wonderfully it has healed over the course of my transition; and the facial/chest hair development from age 24 to 30 is wild!!!

He is holding up a surfer-dude hand sign and smiling. Steph with a fully-healed post-op chest. He is notably hairier, both on his face and his upper body.

Genuinely can’t believe I’m living in a time where we’re getting new Jurassic Park/Jurassic World movies every few years.

I never got to see the originals in the cinema as a kid because I was too young, so being able to have that experience now as an adult is just incredible 🥹

Currently looking after a dog named Coco — I leave the room for literally TWO seconds and he insists on following me even when I’m just going to pee 😭

And if I shut the door for some privacy then he acts like I’ve been away for 3 years when I return.

He’s silly & I love him 🥹

This is Drake. He is very happy to see you. Saw you about five minutes ago, but is thrilled it's happening again. 12/10
a slightly damp golden retriever puppy leaps toward the camera with his front paws right at the bottom of the frame. his ears are flapping out away from his head a bit, and he has the sweetest look in his eyes. his tiny razor-sharp teeth are pristine, and his tongue is a little wrinkled like it doesn’t fully fit in his face yet.

It’s been almost six years since I had top surgery and I still get happy tingly feelings in my heart whenever I take a photo shirtless and see myself as I should have always been 🥹

I hope this #transjoy never ends!

I have now decided to post mostly the same stuff on Bluesky and Twitter so new folks on here can get to know me better/get to grips with my general yapping and nonsensical vibes, so if you follow me on both and you see a post repeated on one app or the other, no you didn’t x

I WOULD LIKE TO SMOOCH COBRA ON HIS LIL HEAD 🥹
weratedogs.com WeRateDogs @weratedogs.com · Jan 21
This is Cobra. His human showed him a fake cockroach and he got super grossed out. Knows an enemy when he sees one. 13/10
a brown pitbull with tan eyebrow dots and a white chest sits in the backseat of a car, paws up on the center console, and makes a snarling expression at the fake rubber cockroach his human in the driver’s seat is holding in her hand. the pup’s eyes are narrowed, his snout crinkled up, and his front teeth slightly bared. the person moved their hand with the fake cockroach slightly closer to Cobra’s face, and he is blurry as he jumps back in surprise. his teeth are still bared and his eyes intently focused on the monstrosity. cobra has regained some confidence and is trying to stand even taller to tower over the little fake roach. his ears are pinned back, and he looks like he’d like to share some stern words with this intruder.

Seeing posts like these from allies really helps me feel less alone during times like this.

My trans friends and I try to stay as positive as we can, but it can be overwhelming when we’re not sure who else in the world actually cares about us.

I truly appreciate everyone who loves and supports us.

Despite Trump’s attempts, trans people will not be legislated out of existence.
To my American trans siblings: Hold the line. Continue living your lives in spite of those who seek to demonise & oppress you. LGBTQ+ strength has always been living authentically in the darkest times.

Do not stop transgender people from receiving care in mainstream hospital wards The previous government proposed changes to the NHS constitution which would mean transgender hospital patients in England may not be treated in female- and male-only wards. We believe that this segregation is discriminatory, dangerous, and violates the Equality Act 2010 and it must not go ahead. • More details We believe this would be in direct opposition to the Equality Act of 2010, particularly Part 3 - Services and Public Functions. Transgender people require healthcare like anyone else, and many live with limited access to that healthcare as it is. We believe this must not proceed.

HI DUNKIN I LOVE YOU 🥹🥹🥹

This is Dunkin. He will not take a bath without his bear ear headband. Partly because it keeps his face dry, and partly because it helps him feel brave. 12/10
a golden retriever puppy stands inside a bathtub with his front paws propped up on the side. he's wearing a brown bear ear headband with two small sunflowers on the right ear. there's a smidge of concern in his face, but mostly he seems ready to get this over with.

Me in my fave state of existence — cuddling with lots of cute #animals 🥰

The baby #hognose in particular was super exciting because that was the first time I’d met a hognose irl and it only happened a few months ago 🥹 And she was a superconda which is a very rare and beautiful #snake morph!
