Museums, leatherwork, and queer shit.
Just found out an ex/friend of mine died on Sunday from complications with diabetes. He was a funny, kind, thoughtful, and cynical man. He enjoyed going for long drives, performing music, and spending time by himself. I'll always remember his laugh.

I was driving from Portland to Seattle on Monday night (common occurrence for me) and was shocked by how many cops there were. I got pulled over for an out headlight and then immediately let go.

So they've got state patrol doing sweeps now. Be safe out there.

This is what's happening to trans people in the United States right now.

It's worse than you think. I guarantee it.

If you're looking for an article to share with people about the current state of things for trans people, this is it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Name change processing, gender marker change denied. An email was sent on 1/31 telling SSA employees to deny gender marker changes, so I just missed it. I'm sad and angry and scared and frustrated. I keep telling myself that at least I got my name change processing but I can't help... 1/🧵

Today's the day I change my name and try to change my gender marker with social security. Fingers crossed.

Next question is: do I change my work email signature from Chris to Christopher? Kinda tempting.

My kid came to me with messages that they were having with my mom about their gender. My mom didn't realize she was invalidating their gender and she eventually conceded to my kid's point, but it still put my hackles up.

I'm so tired of asking myself, "But what part of me do you actually love?"

Realized yesterday that my compartmentalizing is only being so successful.

The real issue is watching my rights be slowly stripped away and waiting for the next shoe to drop. My world is getting much smaller very quickly.

Well, I wasn't planning on joining the military anyway, but I feel badly for my siblings who enlisted, came out while serving, or wanted to enlist. I have a fair amount of family in the military and I understand that it can be incredibly important for some.

81 mutuals. I highly doubt most of those people followed him. Yikes.
My Instagram account is not long for this world.

Hey everyone! Incredible news!

Trans Scouts selling GS cookies this year on my list have sold over 50,000 boxes of GS cookies!

If you want girl scout cookies, consider buying from a trans girl scout this year! They'll mail them to you!

This is literally my fav thing to do every year :)
1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts?

Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from.

Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

With the executive orders coming out, I'm conflicted between wanting to be publicly myself and wanting to hide. Shockingly (sarcasm), I can't find advice from other trans creators about how they're handling their public information.
