Mel never misses
We got married on a rainy October weekend like this one at a community hall and a Lebanese restaurant. A time before #WeddingTok and all this madness. ☔️ Thank you @melwoods.me for this lovely essay that made me laugh and cry. 💐 🌼 🌺 thetyee.ca/Culture/2025...

Emilia Pérez leads all films with 13 Oscar noms, including Karla Sofía Gascón as the first openly trans person nominated for an acting Oscar.
Here's hoping its success opens doors for other, better trans stories

moved across the country by myself. touched two different oceans. regularly went to therapy for the entire year. learned the benefits (and saw the results!) of stepping away from something in order to be able to return to it in a healthier way.
As we fast approach the end of 2023, what are you proud of having accomplished this year?
