four years ago i came out publicly as trans, finally being the real me after a lifetime of not

and that was after five years of knowing but having to wait

it’s been the best four years of my life in every way

live without regrets

you only get one life

make it YOURS 🩷

you’re prolly seeing a lot about the 2025 project to rapidly enact fascism across the board if trump takes office

and it’s horrible and disgusting and awful across the board

and I don’t want it lost in the shuffle that part of it is making it LITERALLY ILLEGAL to be trans

Welcome to #TransTuesday!

This week we’re talking about an aspect of being transgender that I suspect most cis folks have never even thought about (which makes some degree of sense, because you’ve never needed to). Time to learn about:

BOYMODE and GIRLMODE.

Let's talk about what it is, why we do it, and why we should NOT have to.

new trans Tuesday tomorrow, but here’s last week’s festival of joy if you missed it

to every other trans/nonbinary person out there, i hope you too can have a day filled with more love than you thought was possible 🩷

Welcome to #TransTuesday!

On March 23, 2024, my wife and I renewed our vows and got married all over again, so we could have one with the real me.

It didn’t go to plan, it wasn’t perfect, and it was the best day of my entire life. Let’s dive into:

A TRANS RE-WEDDING!

There's photos, and music, and dancing, and a world of difference when you're the real you!

Welcome to #TransTuesday!

This week we discuss something super important for a lot of trans folks, and yet it so very often goes south and impacts us in so many ways:

CIS SPOUSAL AND PARTNER SUPPORT DURING TRANSITION.

Let's talk about what it looks like, and why it's so important... and what happens when we don't get it.

CIS FRIENDS I NEED YOU TO SHARE THIS WITH *YOUR* CIS FRIENDS.

a reminder that kindness is a choice we can actively make

and SHOULD actively make

towards others and towards ourselves

do something nice for yourself today, for me

because i love you and you deserve kindness too🩷

here’s the thing

it’s hard to believe but it’s so so true

NOBODY gets to tell you who you are, or who you have to be

i don’t care what they say, or what society says, and neither should you

break out of that box

fly free

you’re worth it, babe 🩷

Here’s your one-stop shop for all the info and discussion of BEGIN TRANSMISSION: THE TRANS ALLEGORIES OF THE MATRIX, tracking one person’s transition journey - from Thomas Anderson, to Neo... to Trinity. Available everywhere now! (a thread!)

it’s lesbian visibility week!

please remember trans lesbians exist

celebrating lesbians includes us too 🩷

they take our history
they take our healthcare
they take our agency
they take our rights
they take our voices
they take our stories

we aren’t allowed to have anything at all

it’s more important than ever that you:

uplift trans voices
hire trans people
vote like our lives depend on it (they do)

on this Trans Day of Visibilty, remember that you are valid, you matter, and you’re trans if you say you are

if you’re not cis, this day is for you

and remember that on this, the most holiest of trans days, TDoV and The Matrix’s 25th anniversary…

she is risen 😉

Welcome to #TransTuesday!

This week we’re discussing something every trans person has to deal with, all these little things that add up in ways cis people likely don’t even realize.

It’s death by a thousand cuts with TRANS MICROAGGRESSIONS.

Let's talk about what they are and why they're awful, including examples of the most common ones!

⚠️new episode!⚠️ #TransTuesday

BODILY AUTONOMY

A strange thing can happen when you're trans and don't know it... you never feel like your body belongs to you.

So you can't understand why anyone would want to make changes to their bodies, and goodness did that all change for me after transition.

And my tattoo is one hundred percent wrapped up in my transition.

@itsjustjenn joins us to discuss The Tillyverse and the challenge of the unknown! (also I'm a lot now)

ah yes the three genders

happy to tell you I am very much a suit up

The beautiful thing about this is Will Ferrell is a very famous cishet white man who’s using his privilege to help trans people because OTHER CISHET WHITE PEOPLE WILL LISTEN TO HIM.

*THIS* is proactive allyship 🩷
