pre transition photos can be shocking but somehow theyre exactly what you'd expect to see: unmolded clay, yearning to be given form

I know this woman. She's really smart, really hot, super strong, totally funny, talented, also did I say hot? She's hot. It's annoying. That I can't hug her. #vaguepost

Is it a sudden trend, or were trans mascs just invisible? #trans #transgender #transpodcast youtube.com/shorts/Z_gLj...

#Trans masc people right now:

My husband got me a @steviebees.bsky.social shirt for Christmas. A+ i love it so much

Gotta say it’s wild that every time Democrats win an election Republicans form an unbreakable bloc on every issue they prioritize but when Republicans win, Democrats go “oh yeah, mass deport, f the queers, defense of democracy what?” It’s a frustrating feature of American politics.

I’m going to say something bold here and publicly state that “murder is not the way to solve national problems” but suffering from chronic debilitating pain seems to be a much more logical reason for someone to go apeshit than women being in Star Wars

[If you see this, post a knight!] I'll post six and nobody can stop me (they're called Knights but they're more like cab drivers, it's a whole thing)

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting. Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

I came home from work to see my wife Crying on the couch My wife is a truck and when she cries She honk Honk honks Truck wife said "honey I'm pregnant" So I grabbed her by the side mirror Which is her hand And gazed into her windshield eyes

To repeat a point that clearly needs to be restated progressively louder and louder: if every one of us trans or gender nonconforming people were to be forced to detransition and/or worse, your wages/cost of groceries/ability to buy a home would not improve. Pick better battles. #transrights

Starve him.

This podcast is wonderful, the hosts are some of my favorite people (fucking <3 you, @benswagnerd.bsky.social), and the premise of a podcast being "Hey most people don't actually know a trans person, so here's a bunch of low-budget indie trans/gnc folk to share their stories" is a thing we need

Biggest portrait I've ever done! Matt Skiba from The Alkaline Trio (and briefly in Blink-182). I couldn't stand the color red for a while after this lol. I believe the recipient turned it into a throw pillow.

Okay, y’all… I have finally decided that retreat is the better part of valor. Bringing some rainbow energy over to these blue skies. #bydhttmwdi

I've also done a cross stitch portrait of Castiel from Supernatural. I got this pattern on etsy, the other portraits I've done I used an online pattern generator called pic2pat. The Bruce Campbell one is the only one I still have. Because I happened to marry the recipient.

Cross stitch portraits are kind of my thing. Monochromatic color schemes really help keep the number of floss colors needed down.

@steviebees.bsky.social would you ever consider coming on my podcast to talk about your journey, your shirts, your amazing kind posts, and how you have a shirt sponsorship program? It's called Ben and Robin are Trans (Brat! Pod) and we are all about sharing trans stories on our guests' own terms.
