Oh my gosh thank you so much! Neither can I! 🥰

I was definitely still birthday intoxicated when I wrote this. 🤣 Thank you for the love everyone. 🙏🏻🥰

I can feel myself moving into being the best version of me I've ever been, and all of that has been thanks to what I've learned from my loved ones and friends about humility, joy, compassion, and actually living life. 🧡

I truly cannot remember the last time anything like that happened for me and it meant a great deal. 🥹🥰

37 is a big deal of a year for me. That's for complex spiritual reasons, but it suffices to say that I knew this would be a year of dramatic transformation for me, and it has been.

I had such an unexpectedly great birthday y'all. 🥹 I spent a long evening with a ton of my lovely friends and had so many wonderful conversations. 🥰 @neebsgaming.bsky.social

When the restaurant staff came out singing, I was clapping along thinking it was for someone else! 🤣

I was so broken it physically broke me. I had a red button to press when I was ready to call in the Vet to help her across the rainbow bridge. When that time arrived, I was so torn up about it that I accidentally broke my finger in the process.

I'm going to put something together for her that's more than this post, but for now thank you all for your empathy. Her inseparable sister Sona is getting so much love this weekend.

On Thursday evening our dear sweet girl Gypsy passed away. 💔

My heart is shattered. She was the most serene yet stubborn doggo I've ever had. And I loved her. She deserved better than me, but we were loyal to each other to the last.

Drinking to her memory tonight for my 37th.

I printed out some hooks for my pegboards yesterday and they're better than half of my store-bought hooks! 😍 I wanted them more stable side-to-side, though.

I mocked up my own from scratch based on the stabilizers that came with my wire hooks. It works great! I'll throw it up for free later today.💖

All five of our cats are boys 🫠🤣

Look at the number of replies on just Threads. 🥹 So many of them were so long and thoughtful that it took me like 8 hours to get through them all.

Thank you all for making my weekend so wonderful with reading all of your messages. I responded to as many comments as I could think of a reply for. 🥰🙇🏻‍♀️

To the others, I genuinely hope you find peace someday.

Allyship matters deeply, and y'all made this lady feel so deeply affected with all of your positive remarks and the gajillion likes that I had no room to think about the negativity. 🥹🙏🏻

The astonishing amount of complete strangers defending me from hateful people was a true blessing to witness.

I had ~60 to 100 transphobes hurling all kinds of insults at me over the last couple days on Twitter and Threads, and I'm smiling. 🥰

I'm smiling because that number pales to the tens of thousands of you who showed up in support of me.

I have to be mindful of that because I always end up stuck for much longer than the five minute break I plan on. 😆

Anyway, felt cute. 🥰 #nomakeup

Every time I lay on this couch, Pancakes immediately occupies my torso. 🤭🥰 He chirps out a meow, hops off of the bed I built for our cats, walks straight over, and hops right up already purring.

For comparison, that same post has 6 whole human likes on BlueSky. 🤣

Burnin' daylight! Back to mowing!

(eyepatch=glaucoma, mask=allergies)

To all of the wonderful people in my comments, I so deeply appreciate all of you and I will reply when I can! 🙏🏻🧡 Thank you for the heads up about my website! Fixed!

To the upset people, thank you for diverting your attention from more vulnerable individuals. 😘

WOAH! I've been busy, so imagine my surprise when I took a quick break from mowing my yard to see 24,000 likes on Threads and a further 3,000 on Twitter! 😮😍

This is officially my first-ever ID of any type with my preferred name. 🥹

(Also me sweaty in the parking lot after being lost in that expanse for hours. 🤭)

be unpredictable with a stranger.

I needed to show up for a friend this week, and that was finally the motivation I needed.

The Costco guy read my deadname out loud, told me was a mouthful... and then let me put a different name on the card. 😮😍

I forgot to post about this. 🥹🥰❤️ My mom gifted me a Costco membership for Christmas, but fulfilling it fell by the wayside because I was uneasy that they required my government ID. I've never changed from my deadname in nearly 7 years of transition, so sometimes these types of interactions can (1/3)

Hahaha thanks! I recorded remote that day and I had to keep myself muted in Discord because I was dying laughing.

Psst. Hey. Hey PSST! You wanna watch a bonus Sunday VEIN today? It's coming your way!

It'll be going live as soon as this upload finishes. Back to regular episodes on Fridays again, too. 😘

As of today, I am officially free to remarry. 😇

I needed to occupy my mind, so I designed these cute little inserts for my rear baby windows. They're replacing the exterior Temu stick-on thing I had before. 🥰

Wish Gypsy luck in her x-ray. It's so we know best what end of life comfort care we can give her. 💔

Can't sleep so I'm testing out this glass fiber reinforced ABS to make a replacement emblem for my car.

The old one is beat up, but also was always a bit undersized anyway... and it was supposed to be orange. 🤔
