     Someone asked me how I was doing and I said, "You know, juggling dysphoria, dysmorphia and existential dread."

     My self-assigned job here means I read a LOT of posts, many of those about current events. And often that information is just... a bit too much.

     Lately, I worry that being #trans will soon be illegal or just practically impossible. Either way, that's a death sentence.

     So, yeah, dread now seems like the heavier ball.

     I suppose the upside is that I'm not as concerned about the others.
