Friends, if you'd like to support a trans poet who writes about being trans, plural, and autistic, while bringing light to the world (at least I'm doing my best), you can support me on ko-fi. I'd super appreciate it. Plus one of my books would make a great gift for someone you love (or someone you hate, I don't judge).

Last night I returned to an open mic I haven't been to in a while. It's difficult for me because it's where I met my ex and my former best friends. Despite her not usually showing up, my ex was there last night. Neither of us interacted, she went earlier, my system held a very growly Arial at bay, and my ex left before I got up on stage.
Which was her loss, because I crushed it up there! Not only did I look cute AF, but I hit first with a wholesome Rose the Rainbow Mouse story, then followed it up with a poem I wrote to my childhood self. Between the poems, I talked about being alone, about being plural, and about growing up confused as to why I was always being picked on.
I forgot how much reading poetry on stage means to me. It's powerful. I can take up as much space on that stage as I want. No one can stop me from sharing my heart up there. Not the people I called my best friends that cast me out. Not the woman I wanted to spend a lifetime with who called me manipulative for having a breakdown. No one.

Today marks one year on hormones. I can't believe how much I've changed. It's been such a long journey, and it's only just begun. I've met so many wonderful people, including many people here. I went from the mindset of a loser boy to a beautiful girl. Thank you everyone for your support through all of this. I love you all so much.

According to Arial, all the sapphics near me will slowly be inexplicably drawn to me.
Because I'm pretty.

Did I post my birthday selfies? No, I don't think I did!
It's also my six months on HRT selfie!
(Edit: To clarify, my birthday and HRT half anniversary were a week ago, but I just realized I never posted the selfies)

My system has begun weekly check ins. Evaluating how we're functioning as a system, making sure everyone is good with the people in our life, and assessing the system rules.
It went really well today. We took meeting minutes (thank you Arial), which were really good for reflecting. We all have a different perspective on things, and it was really good to have everyone's thoughts (even if I got scolded for accidentally breaking a system rule).

New headmate, name's Ani. As far as I can tell, I'm an autistic bitch, manifested in direct response to our roommates being bullies. I'm the one they call when things have gone wrong. And things have indeed gone wrong.
That's right, I'm the Cobra Bubbles of our system.
