I was thinking of making a community engagement post last week in the run up to the Easter weekend and transgender day of visibility, but it got lost under a recent promotion at work and a few busy days.
So yeah how was your Easter weekend / TDoV? 😊 Most of my family is on vacation so I just had a quiet weekend at home with my partner. All the drama that went down with TDoV landing on Easter Sunday was… unsettling to say the least. I hope everyone was able to weather that storm of hate and propaganda safely.
Been getting relentlessly sirred and brothered anytime I go outside which is destroying me. Won’t be able to do anything about FFS until I can get my braces off which I don’t currently have a timeline on.
Had my first experience with “trans broken arm syndrome” and the doctor blaming a health issue I am having on HRT. I wouldn’t take that for an answer, and I eventually got them to take me seriously but it still sucked having to deal with that.
The ghosts of trauma have been haunting me this week as well, bringing everything else down with it. Wishing I could be less of a downer lol
Congrats on your promotion though :)
I continue to exist @.@ In apparently one of the trans-safest places evar, which is good. Forward progress looms like doom, threatening to cause me to have some kind of life or something. There are many good critters around here! I’ve touched some of them so I’m pretty sure they’re real too @.@
Maybe not a significant thing for anycritter else but my brain is a tasty snack so I’m kinda terrified of going anywhere even when I’m not in a totally new place doing it a totally new way <.< Anyway, I’m thinking about doing a tiny lil bus trip just to the nearest Taco Bell tomorrow 😅 Just to help get myself a lil more familiar with the buses and riding them and pathing about the city and going out at all. Big adventure @.@ Tons of fun?
