MFF was my first Con of any kind.
It was also the first time I got to meet so many of my friends and turned those digital friendships into tangible physical ones.
If that wasn’t enough, I got gender affirmation IRL for the first time since my egg cracked. 💜
It was an amazing experience all around.

If you're like me and against predatory FOMO practices that VRChat is trying with the Winter consumable items (explicitly the snow shooter item), then try to make your voice heard here:

MFF was euphoric.
Turns out completely unmasking in public around people you love and trust is incredibly freeing.

Fly out to Chicago tomorrow.
There are so many conflicting feelings and emotions around this trip.
I really wish it was all positive. It’s like my insides are at war. Excitement and terror and guilt and elation, it is a whirlwind. Expect/hope once there Joy will be the dominant feel.

The day isn’t over but I am hopeful that I can make it.

For almost 3 weeks I have cried every single day. I am consistently experiencing chest crushing anxiety or emotionally spiraling out of control.

So far I am tear free and I haven’t spiraled. Today I’m numb as hell but I’ll take it.

Thinking about this panel a lot lately.
Wish I could CTRL-Z an entire year & live in blissful ignorance. The highs weren’t as high but the lows weren’t as low.
Just living in fear and confusion all the time.
I’m not out.
Add the complexities of everything else and I just wish the fog would lift.
I Wish I Evolved Into A Sylveon...

RSD is such a horrid bitch.
If I could remove an acronym it would probably be highest on my list.

It is crazy that the excitement of 8 days ago could disappear so easily.
I have to start working out more, especially my arms.
I am going to MFF and I need the strength to hug so many people in person for the first time!

If there was any doubt… elder millennials still party hard!

I... never would have expected GOG to do a big porn giveaway to protest censorship, but hey, it's high profile enough to bring the site to its knees so CLEARLY it's spreading awareness.
This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free.

If you have a smartwatch with the green light, thank Spottacus. It’s incalculable how many lives his work has saved- so many people who otherwise wouldn’t have gotten help without alerts from his system. What a legacy.

I have been without my car for 92 days.
The withdrawal symptoms are getting worse. I miss my V8.

Maybe on Monday my Mustang might be repaired. But we are on the 4th or possibly 5th bad axle assembly replacement. Go figure used axles out of S197 V8 Mustangs might be a bit beat.

I mean mine sploded spectacularly.

I am / they are so close, yet so impossibly far away.

My first pride month as a member is in the books.
I accidentally came out to people before I was ready, my life flipped upside down, I withdrew suffered and came back from the brink.

Pretty sure I am doing this right so far.

Looking forward to next year, might even attend a parade! 🏳️‍⚧️
