It’s spring! While on a walk yesterday I took a bunch of photos of some flowers. 🥰

Most people on their birthday just relax. However I rent a jackhammer and finish removing what remains of this shed to make room for chickens!!! Now for the fun part to begin!

I've been on a few climbing trips this past month. Can't wait for it to start warming up around here and getting back outside. Here are some photos from Red River Gorge and Devil's Lake.

I went downhill skiing for the first time on Saturday and had a blast! Very different from cross country skiing. 😅 Definitely not used to the speed.

Went to the Science Museum Thursday evening with my girlfriend. Love this photo! 💜

The future is meaningless but the pasta is now

We won’t disappear just because you change a website.

I need more cute content like this in my feed to offset all the terrible things happening right now.

Last Saturday I went out to Theodore Wirth Park and learned how to cross country ski for the first time with a bunch of really cool queer and trans folk from the Venture Out Project. 💜 I had such an amazing time!!!

For those thinking the NYT grew a spine, hold tight… even in this piece they equivocate on sports and trans youth care.

Last weekend, I got to hike around Shenandoah National Park and had such an amazing time. Here are some photos from my hike along the Rose River Trail.

An anonymous person at the CDC just archived all the public CDC datasets as of 1/28 and uploaded it to archive.org

I’m an autistic woman and I’ve somehow managed to never give the Nazi salut. #elonmusk

More ice climbing today at Sandstone Ice Park! Climbed four routes and got the chance to watch an ice lead demonstrations and try out some ice screws. I kind of want to try ice lead now.

Hey Canada, looking for another province? 🇨🇦

Hold on to your existing passports, it’s still valid and shouldn't be confiscated when using it to travel. Do not try to change your gender marker or renew it early if you’ve made changes to it else it will be confiscated. www.them.us/story/trump-...

1. I just want to acknowledge everything that happened on Monday. Make sure to check in with queer friends and family, especially ones in non-trans sanctuary states, and be patient. All of this can be a lot to process, and everyone has their own way of coping.

Me after not being on social media all day to then come online to see the chaos that has happened in just one day of the orange man being president.

Let’s go!!!! youtu.be/itpcsQQvgAQ

Yesterday I had the amazing opportunity to lead a Women, Trans, Femme Beginner Ice Climbing Clinic at the Sandstone Ice Festival with Midwest Mountain Guides. This was my first time professionally guiding, and I'm so proud of how it turned out! ❤️

With impossible fun nuggies? 🥺 👉🏻👈🏻

Why was day 7 of Advent of Code so easy? I'm afraid of what is to come... 😬

Day 5 of Advent of Code at first seemed like it was going to be a headache, but was actually quite nice. Lets see if I can get past nine days this year! 🤞🏻

Join myself and Midwest Mountain Guides for a clinic that creates space for women, trans and femme climber to learn the basics of ice climbing. Learn more at midwestmountainguides.com

I’m driving home through the US after traveling across Canada the past two weeks and I realized something. While I was up there I never worried about using the washroom. I stopped at a rest area in Washington and the fear of someone doing or saying something hit me.

Heading to Vancouver today. The views are all breathtaking.

Spending the day in Banff, the mountains are so pretty! 😭

Hey all! I've created a BlueSky, mainly out of interest of their PDS. Definitely not the easiest to set up, especially if you want to host it alongside a website, but here I am. Now the next hurdle to get over is using the same domain for my handle as my PDS. 😅
