And just as a quick reminder: if you’re currently undecided as to whether you want to BE a woman or be WITH a woman, why choose? Embrace the power of “and!”

Happy Lezbean Visibility week to all my fellow Lezbeans. 🏳️‍🌈

Met a not-yet-out trans gal for coffee & be a support. She’s so stressed. Overthinking every aspect of her life and future. My advice — start estrogen now, see how you feel. You can worry about other things later. One thing at a time.

I hope our talk was helpful. I think she has a path forward.

Wow, your make up is on point today. Great color on your lips. Looks good 🤩

What perfect album came out when you were 16?

I’m sorry, Steve. I deflated him.

HRT should be free and over the counter

Exciting!!!

Sunday estrogen gang - don’t forget!!

This was a hard one to write for me. Brought up a lot of memories I hadn’t thought about in a while, especially not that deeply.

Resharing for visibility.

Today has been extremely hard for some reason, emotionally. A 30 min uncontrollable sob in my bed earlier was at least somewhat cathartic.

Thanks, Jeanette! Glad you enjoyed it.

How do you know you’re trans? Have I always known I was trans?

Just posted a new article, give it a read and share if you like it.

So you wish you were a girl, huh?

I had this discussion with the gf tonight about why Quantum Leap was so good and why it’s what we need today. A show that is consistently about empathy, the benefits of diversity, compassion, self reflection and doing the right thing presented with thoughtfulness and, at times, humor.

Man that is exactly how it went down. Revelation!

Tell me more! I am unaware of the wing stamps.

A person (me) with shoulder-length light brown hair is sitting indoors and smiling softly at the camera. I’m wearing a dark V-neck shirt, a beaded necklace with a teal pendant, and glasses resting on top of their head. The background is softly blurred, showing part of a living space with warm lighting.

I can’t do eye liner wings to save my life. But I’ll keep trying because I’m not quitter!

I’m not a writer; but it’s something I can do to maybe make a difference. So, in the spirit of believing if people know a real trans person they’re less apt to be hateful or fall for misinformation — I’m going to start a series and just share my story.

A smiling person with shoulder-length light hair and glasses is taking a selfie in a kitchen. They are wearing a short-sleeved purple top with button details and a beaded necklace, and the background shows countertops, cabinets, and a refrigerator slightly out of focus.

I think I’ve discovered that purple, along with orange, are my best colors. 💜👩‍🎤

Boise took its Pride flag down. But new art has popped up at City Hall. What it cost “The flag is not our only form of expression,” a Council Member previously said.

Initially, I was elated Boise had found a unique way to skirt the law.

Then, I got sad, because occasional moments of people skirting stupid laws like banning flags, children’s books, and science based health care are all I’ve got now.

The image shows a person with shoulder-length light brown hair wearing a short-sleeved maroon shirt and a black lanyard. They have one white earbud in and are making a slightly surprised or puzzled facial expression. The background is plain and light-colored.

Another exciting Tuesday at the office… 😜

I would love a full time job doing something for a trans advocacy organization. I’m a software product strategy and discovery manager; but I have lots experience that could apply in other roles around leadership or advocacy work. Referrals welcome and DM for a resume.

Feeling a little,…flirty this evening. 😘😏

That’s soooo cool!!! I love this kind of live tracking and real time info on space missions.
