the post-op bladder shock is so crazy. it takes a while to realign

kinda cool that it’s so normalized to me that it’s kinda matter of fact idk

i’ve grown so much but also i kinda wanna get back to living again soon

4 months into my healing journey wondering when it will stop being painful physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally

hormones? good. without them i’d totally be dead

dang i totally skipped my tran-iversary this year. totes hit 8 years hrt at the beginning of last month

if nothing else, america losing another war is at least a tad cathartic. like hell ya, crash and burn

americans have absolutely no idea how badly the war is going for the united states, all thanks to the gutless, witless journalists who refuse to cover the facts of the situation

pretty soon the gas is gonna be sick as hell (6.66 🤘)

and before californians “well actually” me shhhh

i remember people being so weird and saying cruel things about pups like that growing up but fr that’s gotta be a great way to live

imagine being a tiny little purse dog of a rich girl who pampers you and your name is tofu

turning the kill capitalism dial while looking back at the crowd

clocking in at work 😭

so transphobic ffs

the only visibility the community lacks at this point is more kids being able to live their best lives freely

trans day of visibility really should be a trans day of you-should-protect-trans-kids

…how did dorian electra turn a bob dylan song into hyperpop?!? why does it slap so hard?!

“Bones and All” is one of my favorite movies. it’s clearly about how marginalized communities are treated generally in america, but especially with the queer undertones, it’s really easy to map it to trans experience in the us

yesssss ~ it’s one of those things where like some of my favorite “trans” stories are written by cis people who are talking about a very similar but slightly offset issue but the specifics are really bold and powerful

afterall, a renewal or rebirth through big life changes is universal, no? outside like a single line that is unambiguously about being a trans woman, the song still carries some universal truth/emotions

and like thinking about the most “trans” song i’ve written, which is releasing soon, “sacred reconstruction”: it’s obviously about reclaiming a sense of self through surgery but my language is still a bit vague to where others can parse out slightly different meaning that helps them

like being trans isn’t an inherently separate condition from different ways of being/existing. it’s one of the biggest things that perpetuates ostracization and othering (being able to see us as inherently different/wrong)

i try to write most of my songs in a way that isn’t explicitly about being trans. i think art is really cool and powerful when metaphor can stretch well between multiple meanings and interpretations

it’s one of my favorite to dance to so it’s not the worst option

tops in portland are like quality drummers: there’s only like 5 and they somehow are dating 5 people or playing in 5 projects

in the last couple months, internet ads went from very few being ai to almost all of them. anyone else notice that?

the guy who said “time heals all wounds” clearly isn’t alive right now in the 2020’s

this is the only way we are getting a matriarchy

we must become spiders

injecting spider estrogen so i can eat my mates and spawn 50 children at once

probably my health issues are part of the issue

i’ve done soooo much (years of work). it’s like i can produce an ok voice but it takes constant effort
