And the Fediverse? It taught me that it doesn't have to be that way ☺️

My new hobby: scaring conservatives off the Internet by telling them the most popular browser engine was created by @lisamelton, who is trans - meaning their web browsers are woke 😱

Hear me out: Charlie's Angels, but the angels are all femboys with silly accents

Whoa, new Babylon 5 content!

The Verge - The secret Babylon 5 project is... an animated movie

@Alice I honestly had even lower expectations hopping onto Mastodon... like, just finding a few cool people to follow and, just maybe, someone who liked what I had to share - that would've been a win over Twitter.

Over the last six months, I've been posting all the time, talking with so many cool people, making great new friends, having so much fun... where has this been all my life?

I love it here, and that's above all thanks to all you amazing people ☺️

March 31 is #TransgenderDayOfVisibility. In fact, it's the first such day where I'm actually out as a trans woman.

This year, I stopped lying about who I am and hiding from the world. In doing so, I learned the difference between surviving and living. Transitioning didn't save my life - it gave me the life I never had.

It's also the year where we’ve seen how dangerous visibility can be. Trans people are outrageously vilified, as monsters keep making shit up about "woke ideology" and "grooming." Some states are outlawing gender affirming care or forcing us into wrong bathrooms. Because we dare to live truthfully!

I dream of a world where we're visible not for being trans - but for being the remarkable people we are. :sparkling_trans_heart:
