This picture right here is how I came out as trans. The account is deleted now but I still have a screenshot of it. To think I realized I was trans entirely because of a question on a Q&A site. What a ride it has been. Despite all the frequent heartache and dysfunction I’ve experienced, …
On the Death of Leelah Alcorn (Trans Day Of Remembrance)
TW: Suicide, child abuse, transphobia, homophobia. Leelah Alcorn is a name whose utterance fills me with sentimentality.

Political Rant: On Kristi Hanna and Trans Women in Women Shelters
TW: Transphobia, Domestic Abuse, Homophobia, Rape.

Site Progress and Personal Update: September 2017
TW: References to suicide, rape, animal abuse, pedophillia and violence… yep, I talk about Starless and Shoujo Tsubaki again in this article.
