Pizza time!

Me: “Hello cat! You look very happy there. Are you a happy cat?” Cat: “No.” Me: “WHAT!?”

Actually a really funny story. In the previous round someone else got angry with the play I made, and then me and him both got werewolf cards in the new round (I laughed out loud when we realised). Once it started I said, “I’m a werewolf! He is too!” Last round I ever played with him but ‘twas fun.

Immediately declaring you are a traitor literally right after you’re selected as one might sound like a really terrible play, but it is something I’ve genuinely done before in a game of one-night werewolf and pulled off.

the thing about Ensign Kellogg on TNG being played by a stealth trans woman really is like we as a community always say…we've ALWAYS BEEN HERE. Just because people didn't realize it doesn't mean we weren't here.

What’s today’s discourse? Fantasy vs sci-fi? Really? Well, I like both. Good day.

It’s around that time of year when lots of people are starting PhDs, so let me share some advice as a PhD graduate: • Don’t work more hours than necessary—treat it like a 9-5 job. • Don’t take your work home with you. • Don’t work weekends. • Use all your vacation time. • Prioritise your health.

Question for fellow trans people: How do you go about discussing surgery with close family? Especially if it’s a topic you haven’t brought up before or discussed in a while?

Four years ago today, I met a lady on a farm whose cat had 3 kittens. One of those kittens was a little tabby with a funny curly tail who couldn’t keep up with her bigger siblings. I promised the lady I would take care of that kitten, and she would be very loved. And she is.

Also, can’t help but notice this list completely ignores animated TV shows. I would have fully expected Rick and Morty to appear on it at the very least, but that or any other animation/cartoon is weirdly absent.

Not quite a sunset, but I caught it regardless.

Some annoying news with my ongoing ADHD healthcare. So (for context), even though I got my diagnosis last year, my GP wasn’t allowed to do shared care with the same clinic—something that will be necessary long term. They had to instead refer me to another clinic specifically for titration.

A photo of a gray cat in front of a pink pie chart. On the top it says “Things that bring me joy.” The pie chart is divided into five sections that say: Going home to my cat, thinking about my cat, watching my cat enjoy a treat, rotting in bed with my cat, and talking about my cat.

positive reframing is such a nice tool when you think "I feel like I'm drowning and one or two hard emails away from the burnout knocking me out of commission" you can instead think "honestly I can't believe my nervous system is even functioning at all with all the nonstop horrors lately"

Quick FYI, if you open up a DM with just ‘hi’ or ‘hello’ without stating the reason for messaging me, I will not respond. If you are a not a mutual or an account I have interacted with before, I will also block you immediately.

The kinds of people you meet while trans: - has a PhD. - has a PhD and is running multiple D&D campaigns with different groups. - has a PhD and is a professional competitive weightlifter. - has a PhD and is a published author. My trans experience admittedly has been very specific.

Based on my own experiences, most trans people have PhDs. You find a trans girl who says, “uwu I’m just a silly bimbo, no thoughts head empty!” Very good chance she’s got a PhD.

In times like these, trans joy is anything but trivial. It’s a lifeline. To every trans person sharing their happiness: you are giving hope. To everyone amplifying it: thank you for spreading the light.
