Not just a beautiful story, but an incredibly important one. Thank you for sharing, Matthew! 🖤🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🖤
I was 17 when I met my first trans person.
I think she was 14 or 15 at the time.
She was the younger sibling of the boy I was madly in love with - and secretly dating.
She told me she thought she was a girl.
I believe I was the first person she’d told.

Forgot to make this one rhyme in any way that makes sense.

Well... That was certainly a Comic Con! Sweltered in the Ciri cosplay (but it was so worth it), had great fun at @naturalsix.bsky.social panels and their D&D show, and got an impressive amount of swag.
All in all, quite the success - roll on October (once my bank account's recovered...) 🖤🎮🖤
