The NYT has an article about Lia Smith's death. It's about good as you could hope for these days I guess (mostly doesn't misgender her and seems to actually care that she was a person) but still contains the following graphs, probably the heavy hand of an editor

This article is largely sympathetic despite the fascist lies that "journalistic neutrality" compels them to print but starting to get real itchy seeing this grammatical construction in print

Jubilee - Japanese Breakfast (2021)
Your head is patted and you're sent on your way for the long cold trip to the airport.
She texts you to listen to this album, which you do, continuously, for the next 5 hours. You're not sure what happens next but you feel there might be a chance to be ok

Who Will Look After the Dogs? - Pup (2025)
Hungover in a barely acceptable hotel, confronting the possible end of everything you've built your life around, and having to stare into the maw of what comes next.
The jangly guitars on Concrete mocking you but also giving you the kick you need

Die in Love - Greet Death (2025)
Came along as I explored the darker aspects of my transition.
I was no longer afraid to be me. But now I had to face: was the true me incompatible with the life I had built? Did I need to set it all ablaze, just to find out what was fireproof?

IT WON/T BE LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME - The Twilight Sad (2019)
The summer climaxed with events that brought invigorating clarity, at the cost of interpersonal turmoil. Autumn's cool turn was left to pick up the pieces.
I immersed myself in a sad, thick Scottish brogue over some chilly synths

Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys - My Chemical Romance (2010)
Sometimes you make the best mistake of your life and you drive around all weekend in a daze listening to an album about what happens after the world you knew ends

Soft Spot - Honningbarna (2025)
The most ferocious album I leaned on this year. In the back half, it was my go-to for a pickmeup -- if I felt scattered and unfocused at my job, if I felt scared and overexposed in my personal life.
These Norwegian boys are on another level

Souvlaki / Slowdive - Slowdive (1993 / 2017)
Sitting in Cal Anderson park reading a story of a woman dressed as a man falling in love with a married noblewoman
I'm surrounded by trans women and men and NBs and queers and I feel safe and at home with these strangers
The guitars are so transporting

Transatlanticism - Death Cab for Cutie (2003)
Went to Seattle again in July. My first visit locked in my transness and I wanted to take more time to explore a place I may one day call home.
Finally "got" this album, two years after seeing it live. (Better late, etc.)

The Hands That Thieve - Streetlight Manifesto (2012)
They were supposed to have a new album this year, but of course not. So instead I reconnected with their last album, old enough to have a bar mitzvah, as I walked around Vegas for my friend's "bachelor" party.
At least I got in free to the Omnia

Patience, Moonbeam - Great Grandpa (2025)
It was pleasantly sunny at the Easter party. Our friend's trans kid spent the whole time listening to music on their cat ear headphones.
Yet, I try to be some kind of role model. It's only been 6 months.
On the drive home my spouse and I share this album

Blew Blue - 銀杏BOYZ (2025)
In April I saw 銀杏BOYZ at 924 Gilman. First time being around other transfems since starting HRT. Back in the hotel room I sob.
Next day I'm in Seattle to watch Refused retire. The sun sets over Elliot Bay and Mineta screams in my ears and I feel something ending

This Is All We Ever Get - Spaced (2024)
As the ice thawed, a new life started to seem possible. The riffs on this album pumped me up enough to walk into a boutique for the first time and try on a blouse
(It didn't look good)

Demo 2015 / TRANS DAY OF REVENGE - G.L.O.S.S. (2015 / 2016)
The early, icy months of the year were the worst. A mix of personal problems colliding with the Politics of It All. Felt alone and like I was already losing my transness
Having angry, uncompromising music kept me warm

NEVER ENOUGH - Turnstile (2025)
The accidental soundtrack to my transition. The first single dropped on the day I accepted I needed to become a woman. Six months later I saw the band live on the day I felt I had finally become that woman
Fuel for the most important thing I've ever done
