It's okay. I woke up today and decided that I'm not going to stop trying to find me and my comfortability just because of a few a**hats. I just need to work on not freezing up in those situations and find my assertiveness.
You may want to open it in an incognito browser tab to avoid tracking fuckery but I really enjoy this slightly confused article by someone who was clearly trying to find things to be outraged by at a children's pride parade a few library branches in DC organized but couldn't quite manage it.
"The kids seemed uninterested in what the adults were trying to teach them" steam startlingly naive with regard to the dynamic of children who are already going to a pride festival.
Like my guy in general I would say those kids probably don't have much to learn.

My apologies. I just meant on my journey, and was wishing you all well on yours. I think I was up well over 24hrs hours with insomnia, words got kinda weird.
After a lot of thought, I decided I am just happier being feminine. I am starting estrogen on Monday (well, guess tomorrow at this point) and I am very excited. Also slightly terrified as I opted for injections since it will be faster, and I hate needles.

the other day I thought of referring to the various hormones and medicines as "gender benders" and I've been sitting on it and now I can't think of a good joke so I'm just gonna say gender benders.

Oh yeah, I assume so. My father had a similar thing with needles and got over it when he became diabetic, so I assume this will help desensitize me. I was just watching the instructional video they sent me and kept twitching and cringing. On the other hand, I was reading about the effects of estrogen they had sent me and and I keep thinking about it and getting super excited!

So about a month ago I switched from pill to IM injections because I just wasn't absorbing enough from the pills. I've been following my prescription dosage, but uhh maybe a bit of an overcorrection?
Injections are always like that. Since you take them less frequently, you get a huge spike at first and then it drops steadily over the week(s) until it's time for the next dose.

I will also add that I have seen a lot of stuff saying you get more out of injections than pills because you bypass the liver. The equivalency charts get a little goofed as a result which can lead to a need to fiddle a bit.
I am learning how to do my girlfriend's injections. The first time I didn't have any trouble but last night I went a little too quick with the syringe. Nothing catastrophic but it is a little nerve-wracking.

I have always done subcutaneous and it works really well for me. Just rotate around the belly button. I have had one issue recently where I went too close to a nerve, but mostly that happened because my other subcutaneous injections made me want to find a different space for it.
Guess what!? I never went back to my old job, so I never officially came out at work which is like to the public for a hermit like me. I started a new job today and without hesitation I informed them of my preferred name and pronouns. Feels super freaking good. That being said I must also take a moment to thank every LBGTQ who fought so hard and continues to fight to make that possible and more. It is their strength I think of when I get scared.

I have been playing up my queer behaviors both because it's freeing and it makes my one friend uncomfortable.
not because he's got any particular prejudices but he grew up really religious and with strict gender roles and I like fucking with him.

Not at all. You were very clear. My remark is just about how fundamentally poorly they comprehend pride events. Their purpose and their attendees.

But that gives you an idea of just how powerful they are. 🛬
oh, a trans Avatar is a gender bender
The Avatar bends all four elements, and gender.
it's whatever you want it to be, honestly
but yeah most people would either call that non-binary or agender

Was too busy to come here and say a thing yesterday but y’all are all valid and beautiful and deserve love and support.
So if you need any just ask!
If it cannot be summed up as one of the common binary identities then it is generally called non-binary. The fluidity itself is a non-binary trait.

You wouldn't give an IV injection at home without like, a port.
