Gah, I made the mistake of spending a week back on Twitter. It’s seriously not good for mental health. Firing up this account again in the naive hope that it’ll scratch that social media itch

Feeling a bit embarrassed that I forked out a few dollars for an AI yearbook. No, I don’t think I’d have looked like a young Kelly Cuoco.

Three years ago, I never thought that I’d someday fly an Airbus. And I ABSOLUTELY did not think I’d be doing that while wearing a bra 😂😂😂
Reskeet with the wildest thing that’s happened to you since Covid hit.

After a lifetime of feeling awkward and being out of place, I figured out I was a trans woman and have begun a process of transition.

If you care about this stuff & want to learn a ton, @gains-skeets.bsky.social wrote up maybe the only professional evidence-based guide for training trans athletes, based on scientific research AND a decade of training trans clients. The transphobic arguments are bullshit, here’s what’s important

Hair check rescheduled for a month from now. Continuing to lose weight. It’s beginning to sink in that my bottom surgery is really going to happen. After all these years, finally having a body that’s *right*

Hey all, please don’t engage the bigots. Hate seeing hate on my feed. Let’s keep Blue Sky Blue.

I posted this a couple of days ago. Older friend didn’t put her reading glasses on and thought I was preggers 😂

Naw, you get over having COVID.

Girls in your 40's & 50's, lamenting that you didn't transition sooner: there are girls in their 60's & 70's wishing they'd transitioned at your age.

All journeys are different and valid, and it happens when you're ready.

This week’s resolution: no more peeking at Twitter even through news links. I quit before, made a new account just to read articles but even that’s toxic.

Stay here in my new happy Blue Sky home

This really shouldn’t be surprising. They’re boobs. But there’s a lot of bigots who really hate the reality that sexual characteristics are mutable.

Big feels. Exactly this for me too.

I remember starting my Twitter account and discovering transgender women leading amazing and happy lives.

I wondered if I could do the same.

I did.

I will do my best to help remake that space here.

the one thing, above all, I’d suggest to the newskies:

be kind

block and mute the shitheads, don’t engage them if at all possible, and just… treat people with respect

we have a real chance to build a better culture, let’s take it

Sunday afternoon musing. I’ve been living as a woman for a few years now. As time goes on, I have difficulty remembering what living as a man was like.

Even my memories are shifting. In my mind’s eye, I remember myself as female.

I know it’s not true but I can’t envision myself as a guy.

People do NOT want to "recreate Twitter."

They want to write/read clever or interesting posts, connect with who they choose, and never have to bothered by Nazis, racists, white supremacists, sexists, MAGA trolls, foreign bots, sock puppets, transphobes, or homophobes.

So no. Not Twitter at all.

Gah. I’ve got a chance to upgrade to Captain within the year. Look, it’s both crazy good money and also very important to me. I feel we need more women captains— there’s a definite glass ceiling at my airline.

But I’d be Florida based.

Trying to rebuild transgender connections here while remaining somewhat anonymous. Trans Twitter was a special place for me but I had to delete my account because of harassment even before Elon took over.

Hoping this space will grow. 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
