A path through a lush green shrubby clearing leading into a dark forest of pines and firs. A tiny Toni stands in the middle distance wearing purple leggings, a pale blue top and sunglasses. She is holding her backpack straps and smiling.
Been a while since I shared a #TransJoy update. They don't want us enjoying life so doing so is important resistance. So my latest #TransJoyIsResistance photo is taken by @danawidmo.bsky.social of me enjoying a stroll in a forest yesterday evening...
start it around 22 sec. when i get lost inside myself, i watch this on repeat. we live in a world that is so beautiful. we just need to pause and look.

I wish I hadn’t waited so long, but I’m so happy to be here now! #transgender #transjoyisresistance #lgbt #existoutofspite #resist
I got my semicolon a few years back. I still remember the excitement and fear of getting it. I was scared of not being able to live up to the meaning. Today, I am excited to be alive and experience life.
To my friends that didn’t make it, I miss you

Toni watering garden plants with a hose. She wears a pink hoodie and dark purple leggings. She is looking over the top of her glasses at the camera and smiling.
Here is some #TransJoy to help the resistance. Because #TransJoyIsResistance. Here I am finding joy in the simple task of watering plants in the garden because it hasn't rained here for over a week. Yes I am in #Scotland. I know right?
First time out without makeup on, 2.5 weeks post-surgery. Still trying to process the joy & comfort I feel, & put into words. It’s unreal 🏳️⚧️🦋💖

The connectedness of our lives is beautiful. We must love and care for each other. Thanks @abelouise.bsky.social for sharing this poem. I needed the reminder to be grateful for others and how our lives intertwine.

A light pink square with black text covers a background of blue sea and pink, blue, and white clouds. The black text reads: “To all our trans family members, friends, coworkers, neighbors: we see you. Trans people have always existed and always will exist. We love you and we will always fight for you.” The white Flourish Point logo is in the bottom left corner.

An adult white woman with gray eyes and hair freshly died a dark pink (kind of a copper rose). She is wearing cat eye tortoiseshell glasses and a black sleeveless dress covered in multi-colored hearts and dinosaurs. She is standing back from the camera so that more of the really cool skater dress is visible, smiling, one arm behind her.

It's Trans Day of Visibility, so I'm contractually obligated to post selfies today. 🏳️⚧️

The bright side of being a trans person right now is that choosing to live authentically and work towards happiness is an act of resistance on its own

This is a picture of me pre-testosterone. I’m holding a leaflet discussing testosterone and it’s affects sat on the bed looking at the camera looking slightly apprehensive.
This is a picture of me sat on a bed in the same pose as I was in my year ago picture. I’m wearing a shirt that says “gender is a galaxy” and look incredibly happy. Biggest notable change is I have a beard a year later.
One Year Today!
Georgia suggested I recreate the pose on my bed, apprehensive but happy to start my medical transition. No regrets ❤️🏳️⚧️

This. I don’t think any to be resilient anymore. I want to be soft. I want to wake up and feel safe. I want to just exist. #transjoyisresistance

Photo of Toni Widmo leaning forward, hands on hips, and sticking tongue out mischievously at the camera. She is standing in a quiet road lined with grass, hedges and trees. She is wearing purple thermal tights, pink leg warmers, outdoor hiking shoes, a colourful short dress, a pink crop hoodie and a purple winter jacket. The sky is blue with some small fluffy clouds.
Been a while since I posted a photo of #transJoy. I've been slacking.
#transJoyIsResistance is more important than ever in these dark times. Fuck 'em. Have fun out of spite for their hatred.
I will not conform to some made up idea of what I’m supposed to be. I have the power to be the best version of myself each day.

i know how hard it gets. i know how unbearable it feels to just be, to exist. i know how lonely it feels to always be misunderstood. i know how much grief fills your heart of just wanting to be accepted. and still, stay. my trans family, stay. my autistic loves, stay. #audhd #transjoyisresistance
The onslaught of anti-trans laws is exhausting, but history has shown that resistance leads to change. We won’t be erased. We will keep fighting for a world where being trans/nonbinary is safe and celebrated. #TransJoyIsResistance
My motivation for initiating this project was to illustrate that we are more than our traumatic experiences,This anthology is slated for release on Trans Day of Visibility, March 31st, this year. .#dyslexicbooknerd #readingispower #blackmenread #resistanceisreading #transjoyisresistance
The back of a clear tablet, you can see the metal hardware, two stickers adorn the back, one says “trans magic” the other “he/they”
Gotta sticker up the new device, I won’t hide myself no matter how much the government doesn’t want me to exist #SuperNote #TransArt #TransJoyIsResistance
The caption on this one used to be that we trans people had a rough year and could use some self love-
oh boi I was not ready for the rest of the year, we still need self love tho !
