No idea how this comic didn't crack my egg, but it definitely gave me egg feels and probably contributed to it. In fact, here's how things kinda went for me:

You know what a proper education about queer people might have done for me? Saved me a shitload of confusion and anxiety. Not having any sort of resources for queer kids sure as shit didn't stop me from being ace or trans.

I had an employer offer me a phone interview, then ghost me when I warned them about my voice not matching my name. Another recruiter got noticeably uncomfortable when he heard my voice and rushed the interview to get me off the phone. I have absolutely lost job opportunities by being trans.

It's kind of wild when you stumble upon an old YouTuber you used to watch and find out that they're trans. I never see it coming. Also fascinating that that's happened to me no fewer than five times.

And because of the way the billing cycle works, Spectrum won't be cancelled until July 18. Three days after the original scheduled date for fiber, ironically. Oh well, I'm still saving $40 a month this way.

Oh, hey, the fiber internet service I was supposed to get mid-july is already activated. Neat. Looks like I get to cancel Spectrum early.

Here're my top five games I want on Switch 2 Gamecube: Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes Skies of Arcadia Legends Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader Star Wars: Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike Star Fox Assault

It's insane that much of the rightmost Democrats decided that this is the reason why they lost. The only party making trans rights into an issue were the Republicans, who ran numerous hate speech filled attack ads flat out lying about what Harris, Biden and others were saying about trans people.

Get fucked, Cuomo.

Can't have universal healthcare, but we apparently sure as shit can have another fucking forever war. What a fucking country this is.

Suikoden II is finished. Amazing game, even if the narrative is a little thinner than its reputation. I have mixed feelings about the (perfect) ending, but regardless, there is a reason this game has been regarded as one of the best JRPGs of all time.

I think one of the most affirming things I've experienced in my transition is when cis women ask me if my curls are natural (they are) followed by calling my hair pretty or beautiful. This has happened no fewer than six times and it's a small rush of euphoria every time.
