I'm looking forward to attending #BSI25 next week! Hoping to make some new contacts and meet new people ☺️ Will have my eye out for mast cell research in particular, but I'm excited to see the progression in immunology research overall! 🔬

One year ago today, I sold my first pin badge at canopyrobin.etsy.com and set out to fund my trans healthcare expenses sustainably by creating a small business alongside my fulltime job. This quoted thread shares the 17 designs and 106 variations I've made since then!

Please check them out! 🏳️‍⚧️

I will be starting ADHD medication soon! Possibly this week, depending on if the prescription comes through at the weekend. I started the referral process for ADHD in 2023 so it's been a long time coming waiting for this moment. Here's hoping it works 🤞

It's been a while since I did some snowboarding. Preparing myself for some cramped legs later 😂

Yesterday we went to see the Galeón Andalucía at the Albert Docks. Cass managed to resist the urge to pirate the vessel, so for now we are still living in our house on land. It's still in Liverpool for a few more days though... 🏴‍☠️

“We studied more than 70 different elections that took place in 12 western European countries over several decades, and found that when mainstream parties take more anti-immigration positions, it leads to more support for the radical right, not less.”

It's quite an exhausting experience trying to live your life every day while the media screams that people like you are unnatural and shouldn't exist. I guess I'm quite good at compartmentalization. 🏳️‍⚧️

A couple of months ago, my grandmother died. She was like a parent to me, and helped bring me up after my dad died when I was 9. Her passing is a huge hole in my life. I miss her when I am having a tough time and need to reach out for support, I miss being able to share my achievements with her.

Liverpool Pride 2025 was a good time. I got lots of compliments on my sign today.

The speeches at the start were super moving. I found myself in tears on a few occasions. The energy of the people marching today was great, so many people marching in solodarity for trans people 🏳️‍⚧️🩷🤍🩵

I am resentful that I wasn't diagnosed with adhd before I spent 3 decades nuturing a permanent state of insecurity and low self esteem as a result of living with my adhd symptoms. Currently mourning 'a life that could have been' if I'd had a diagnosis earlier.

Yesterday I was diagnosed with ADHD. It's good to have an answer for some of the issues I've been facing in the past (and present). There's a 10 month(!!!) wait on starting titration of medication which is frustrating, but what's one more year when I've been waiting my whole life.
