Just a warning for anyone who wanders in here because I said something cool somewhere about comic books, RPGs, or libraries... my feed here is mostly me babbling about videogames (or my transition) 🤣
Torrid, why would you taunt me with bright pink skinny jeans when you don't have any (of any size or length!) in stock?

I wasn't going to do more than quietly log another producer credit on a friend Doing A Social, but since Claire is being so nice...
I know I'm late posting but I didn't get back from it until midnight 🙃

@chithemonkey.bsky.social and @lila-satori.bsky.social are wonderful people and managed to get me out of my comfort zone and into Belles & Chimes last night for an amazing night with delightful people 💖🥰

Think @pookaknight.bsky.social would be pleased by the very Pooka-esque answer I gave when a friend asked if I 'identify as fae' 😊

While my chin is still a little red and swollen, I *do* appear to have a little stubble-free spot on it after my third electro session 😤
For all the trans people out there, if you like, please share something good that’s going on in your life, no matter how big or small.

I’m sure we could all use some good news to offset all the bad.

How about we start Trans Joy Tuesday! 🏳️‍⚧️

<screaming>

All I want is a symmetrical 5-button mouse, with one button on each side, ideally corded USB connectivity.

Do these rare beasts exist any longer? (for under A Lot Of Money in price?)

Running across a 'he/they for now' nerdy married person in their middle years (who just went to their PP appointment for HRT today) like

'Hey, let me tell you how the next 18 months can go if you play your cards right and are a little lucky'

<scene from a marriage>

Her, at work, sending a DM: Why were you talking about Tom Ellis and Matt Ryan railing you on Bsky?

Me: It came up in conversation

Her: Okay...

Me: Love you most though

Her: Mhmm 👍

Me: You're the only one railing me these days babe 😘

Her: Ha! 😁
I would be down with that, but look

That CW crossover gave me the fantasy which involves Ellis' Lucifer and Ryan's Constantine, and that instilled in me a MIGHTY NEED

I am so bi I thought I only liked guys until I was ~15, when a friend told me bisexuality was a thing.
I never realized how bisexual you are, Chi

<giggling>

Okay, there's a little smooth patch of skin right at the point of my chin.

So nice to have evidence the fucking electrolysis is working.

Wasn't Bond just a Gallifreyan?
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Just two days left to back WITCHING SEASON!

You want to read @matthtaylor.com and my story about TRANS WITCHES battling MONSTERS don't you?!? Of course you do! So back this book!!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/phi...
November 11, 2025 at 2:02 PM
So yeah, last night I was exhausted after a full day of work and electrolysis, and running on fumes after less than 5 hours of sleep.

Things got a bit silly, huh?

Any other lesbians (or non-lesbian varieties of Sapphic) out there think my niece Asha is pretty?

I'll reskeet some of her photos in the comments if you're unfamiliar.
I am just hoping that the other lesbians will find me at least a bit pretty
November 11, 2025 at 3:55 AM
Just realized I have a new quest:

Taking out of town trans friends to the lesbian/queer bar and dancing with them any time they visit.
In a good mood. Starting "dancing" in the kitchen while I await the muffening. Realized I should never dance in public 🤷‍♀️

I'm sorry, @transducer.bsky.social.

*What* kind of butterfly am I?
November 11, 2025 at 12:57 AM
Rejoice.

Got my results from this morning's lab work and I am girling appropriately.

<scene from a library>

Me: <helping a man with the computer>

Man: Ma'am, I bind you in the name of Jesus, do you have a husband?

Me, nonplussed: I have a wife.

Man, smoothly reorienting: At some point in the future you should try out both, you and your wife and me
November 10, 2025 at 6:37 PM
I continue to hate electrolysis, and would like it to all be magically done now, please and thank you.

This is all infuriating but we did still win all those elections, the *PEOPLE* are still furious and ready to act, and nothing the senate dems do can change that.

They keep running upstairs to tell me every time they find a hidden item in a chest or barrel or jar.

It's... a lot of running 🤣
My child is in the basement screaming at the screen as they play GOLDEN SUN on the Switch.

I honestly couldn't be happier.

I know a lot of us get nervous about making phone calls. But it is important that we let our voices be heard, and I promise, you'll feel SO good when you're done.

Just remember: let them know who you are and that you're a constituent and say what's on your mind. Keep it simple.
These are the senators who are about to vote to destroy us by caving on the shutdown for nothing in return. You can call and leave a message since it's Sunday, and try again tomorrow when they're open at 9am.

Is it weird that I view helping my friends make friends with other friends (who I think would be compatible, friendship isn't always transitive) as part of my professional praxis as a librarian?

It's connecting people with the resources they need!
