It's been less than 3 months since I've started HRT and my chest has already developed so much ^-^. They've reached a point where they bounce a little if I'm moving enough or walking fast enough lol

Had an old couple debate whether I was a "maam' or a "sir" while at work today. I had to step away for a moment to grab something for them. When I returned they asked (curiously, not judgementally) "so, are you a man or a woman?" It was a very funny and sweet moment

Finally used calculus in a real life application. I had to find the surface area of a hat I'm using as a base for my ren faire outfit so I knew how much material I needed. Unironically really happy, as nerdy as that is ^-^

Also, a big thing people leave out of all of these discussions is that inequality is a driver of unhappiness. Regardless of whether living conditions are improving in general since hundreds of years ago, if inequality increases that impacts happiness and conflict

if you’ve been lucky enough in your life to be trusted by someone who transitioned as a teenager and heard them talk about what they went through you will never stop wanting to **** these politicians

Almost didn't notice that today is the 2 month mark since I started E ^v^. Been so busy I've lost track of time

no funding if it seems like the research MIGHT involve a woman or a nonwhite person

It's interesting discussing the forbidden NSF words with people because at first they're like "but surely this is just about DEIA??" And then I point out that the list of forbidden words is heavily gendered and also includes words that you would use in doing "apolitical" science

It is a cool 84 degrees here in Arizona today. I wore a cute sweater today because it has been in the 60s-70s but am sweating because it's so warm today. Love it hereeeeee 😭

Almost every day now I will catch a glimpse of myself in a window or mirror and be like woah 👀. Not a ton has changed since hrt yet, but I'm starting to notice it :)

Ya girl has been awake since 7am yesterday morning, 32 hours and counting 😩. My brain is not built for differential equations on this amount of sleep :(

This morning I realized that the thinning hair on my head from male pattern baldness is starting to thicken up since starting HRT ^v^. I've seen some wonderful results from others on that front so I'm hoping mine keeps getting better!

Got exactly 0 minutes of sleep last night for whatever reason and I have both physics and differential equations today, yippie 😭. Living the college life again I guess ✨✌️

Just realized how my schedule this semester lines up and ya girl has no days off ✨✌️. Working Fri-Sun, have class on Mon and Wed 7am-3pm, have class and work on Tue, then class again on Thu. Yikes, it's gonna be tough, but I got this. This is what your early 20s is about tho, right? I got this

Whatever I post on this account is mostly gonna be updates on my life to look back on or interesting things I thought were neat to repost. Not the most exciting, but hey, I'm treating it like a diary (that people can just see whenever cuz why not 🤷‍♀️)

I didn't realize just how much HRT would affect how I smell. Before if I sweat a lot my BO was pretty bad, especially if I forgot deodorant. Even now, 1 month on E, that is practically gone. Sweating all day at work and barely a smell (w/o deodorant cuz I forgot it 😖).

I don't know if this is an autistic-brain thing, but one of the thing that really freaks me out about the current reality is that I really deeply and fundamentally don't understand why anyone would ever choose cruelty over problem-solving.

chasing your own joy and authenticity also requires you to be agonizingly vulnerable. You have to unpack that societal shame binding you to the acceptable norms. it requires you to risk being seen as weird or cringy by the status quo- and makes you ask why you value that acceptance so fervently.

Had a patient refer to me using she/her pronouns while I was delivering their meal. I don't use she/her pronouns for myself, but it kinda felt validating because my goal is to present more fem ☺️. The mask I was wearing and how my hair was tied in my hair net probably contributed, but still :)
