To all the late transitioners: Your visibility is life-saving. You are the reflection someone else needs to finally see themselves.

I just picked this up and you should too! Ellen is a fantastic storyteller and writer. I loved "Marooned Off Ceres" from beginning to end, and it's just packed full of heart, humor, and imagination. Do yourself a favor and give it a read!!! 💕

It's publication day! Wiz Duos #4 by me and @stephencoxauthor.bsky.social is out today! I'm so happy and excited. I truly think that Marooned Off Ceres is the best thing I've written. If you do read it, please write a review. wizardstowerpress.com/books-2/nove...

There were things like - I don't have any specialist input for my chronic fatigue or weight loss, ignoring the fact that I'm overweight because of the fatigue and the cfs clinic won't see me because I'm overweight. Fuckers.

Got the reply back from my Personal Independence Payment assessment. According to them there is absolutely nothing wrong with me. I scored zero across the entire range of things. Which is ridiculous. I've got a month to appeal. But not today because I'm feeling like crap.

Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.

, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.

As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

Nothing else helped my shitty sleep patterns as much as taking progesterone. When I tried that crystals, my kid remarked 'oh, so you've stopped believing in science then'.

Looks like my GP is going to end my progesterone prescription. I got it to help with my sleep but an endo has purely focused on the gender side and that the NHS doesn't give progesterone to transes. Got an appointment next Thursday. I tried a lot of other things - including crystals(!) and /1

I'm going to do an experiment. This is honestly something I'm curious about. The purpose of this isn't to get likes, but this is really the least noisy way to do it without comments cluttering things up. How many people are trans lesbians? Like the post if you are. I think there are a lot of us. ❤️

Thank you for this recommendation. I've just bought the ebook of volume 1. (Only 212000 words so give me half an hour or so to finish it...)

Will liking this mean that I get another trans lesbian assigned to me? (Please.)

I've just finished reading A Catalogue of Catastrophe in my @www.joditaylorbooks.com reread. Finishing one of her books always leaves me feeling extremely happy and content. They are just so very good.

There's still plenty of room for more Trans authors in this SciFi & Fantasy bundle. Also, I forgot to say in the criteria below; Romance and NSFW which also has a SciFi/ Fantasy plot is welcome.

I don't like artificial sweeteners so I'm kind of stuffed when it comes to soft drinks. I'm left with paying over the odds for (admittedly really good) soft drinks.

My cat has fallen asleep on my lap for the first time in what feels like months. I'm really happy at this occurrence. Even though I really need a pee.
