I think of this poem by J Jennifer Espinoza often #trans

Trans people, like the sunrise, will forever be a beautiful part of each and every day and will always be a thorn in the side of those that would rather keep the world in darkness.

If you’re a trans woman considering not transitioning because your kids will (as someone today lamented to me) “lose the dad they need,” consider instead that not transitioning is denying them the mom (or trans parent of any label) they deserve. #trans

So I’m currently unemployed and would love to use this time productively.

If anyone knows any queer folks (teens, kids, undergrads) who are in need of free (remote) tutoring in physics or math let me know! I’d love to find some time to help.

My bone fides are

• BS in Physics and Astronomy (double major)
• MS and PhD in Nuclear Engineering with a focus on numerical methods and nuclear physics.

Feel free to boost for visibility!

Oh hey it's me, the white trans woman with curly brown hair. As it turns out, I just lost my job, which sucks. I'm a mom of two young kids, and am paying some really high rent in the SF Bay Area.

I'm really optimistic that I can bounce back from this soon, but in the mean time, things are going to be tight. If anyone has anything to offer, it would be a great kindness. Thank you. #mutualaid #trans

I want a city builder where you start with a super dense car-ridden city and you have the challenge to build in green spaces and public transit and stuff to increase the happiness of the residents.

Happy Bisexual Awareness Week! Celebrate with us by

• sitting on chairs weird
• getting into an argument over the definition of pansexuality
• watching The Mummy (1999) and thirsting after all the main characters
• agonizing over your queerness in hypothetical straight passing relationship
• thinking “brain, them?! Really?”

Enjoy!

Hey cis folks did you know Saturday is a great day to bring up your unconditional support for the humans rights of trans people with the other cis people in your life

Laughing at being asked (the gross transphobic question) if I would take a pill that would make me not trans.

Like, a magic medicine that helps cure gender dysphoria?

My dude let me tell you about this neat medicine that already exists.

I think it’s the feeling like I’m in a rough spot that won’t end and that feeling of being stuck that makes me want to make timelines.

One of the most powerful things about transition for me is the ability to SEE how much I have the capacity to change in positive ways (for myself) if I do a hard thing and keep at it even through tough times.

I don’t know where I’ll be in two years but I didn’t expect to be here then, and that gives me hope.

Please keep at it. I will too.

Why would I go to any other platform?

I don’t care about user base size or UI design or retweets or quote tweets or verified accounts or whatever.

I care about feeling safe and this is the first place I’ve felt that.

Happy 2 year HRT anniversary to me!

I never thought I would be so happy looking in the mirror. Here I am with a day zero shot, middle top, and then every 6 months. I started at 35 years old, I am now 37, and I've finally found a real smile for the first time in my life. #trans #transitionTimeline #fineFemmeFriday

Welcome to mastodon tips, Reddit edition!

1. Follow the hashtags of topics you like

2. Post an #introduction to find people with your interests to follow

3. Boost posts you like to increase visibility. There’s no algorithm and favoriting isn’t upvoting.

4. If you think a lot about being a different gender why not use those pronouns and a different name here? Follow some trans folks.

5. You don’t have to say “you win the internet” we can leave that behind it’s ok.

Being trans is a positive quality to be celebrated. More openly trans people is good and a vital part of the work to make society more free and equitable. #trans
