Finally someone said it.

Is there per chance a secret gen-x transwoman (or transgender) meetup in the #Albuquerque area I’m not aware of? Not a dedicated support group like @tgrcnm.bsky.social but for lowkey social talks/coffee? Not clubs n dancin’ or karaoke. I like conversation.

When I brings the cheese, him begins the begging and pleading for me to pay the cheese tax.

I do rewatch my fav tv shows on occasion. But there’s is a necessary gap period. That gap has completed for Fringe. Probably my top fav sci-fi TV show.

Bored at lunch and taking unflattering selfies. Ha.

It’s uncanny they knew I was slouching?! [to self] sit up straight. Stand up straight. Shoulders back. Continue growing…

I found the official event photographer. She was eating a bagel and complaining about her sore back.

So, March 16 is my 6 month tranniversary. Went by quickly, hope to get to 1yr just as fast.

Just a couple of drag entertainers wishing you a Happy Fri-Gay. They are not hiding who they are. This is Fascist America. They can arrest my trans ass off the queer bar stage in my intolerant leftist attire. The Lady In Red: Sunny Marmalde Photo Credit: Heaven & Hell Photography

Morning coffee with Chihuahua. Happy Friday folks.

OMG, is this a thing people do? You have a warm cup of coffee in the morning that you sip while taking a shower? This changes everything! ☕️🚿🧼

I miss being loved in a romantic way. I miss intimate physical touch. I’ll see myself out.

I’m so tired of this bullshit. So, so tired. Exhausted. 😢

My 15 year old has never been able to sit through an entire movie with me. But, I just rewatched “Boys in the Hood” and he went all the way. A testament to the power of the movie and John singleton’s writing and direction. Last time I saw it was prob 1991 when it came out.

Ha ha. I have thought the same.

A movie you’ve watched more than 6 times. I am a total dork.

Oh Noooooo! I think I have enough to hold out; but I’m going to sacrifice a raisin bagel to Freya that the estrogen will soon run plentiful.

Stanley Kubrick’s “Home Alone.”

Waiting for the 15 year old to get out of school. Felt relatively cute — for relative values of cute.

Excited to be an official volunteer photographer at the @glsen.bsky.social New Mexico TQA Pride Youth + Educator Summit here in #Albuquerque! Should be fun AND informative. 💕🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Guillermo Del Toro’s “Marry Poppins”

Utah state rep Nicholeen Peck has introduced a trans care ban for adults that not only threatens trans patients using Medicaid but will likely have dire effects on the University of Utah trans care team - the same one that has seen me through my transition from day one.

More figure drawing practice. I need to just reserve an hour a day for practice across the board.

Hold the line.

Very fluffy, painterly clouds out as I’m running errands today. #NewMexico #Albuquerque

Lots to piece out from day 1 of the hearing on Trump's executive order concerning trans people in the military, but this back-and-forth between Judge Ana Reyes and government lawyer Jason Lynch about intersex people and biology is interesting!

Here's my one and only trans discourse take, and it's an intensely subjective take deliberately designed to center my own perspective and get the goat of assholes, so if you're angry about this, check a mirror: Trans women are FANTASTIC. We are AMAZING. Estrogen is MAGIC.

I have not laughed so hard all week. Fantastic. I must see the follow after that.

Liked AND Subscribed! Wish I could leave a positive comment for him. Great Minecraft walk thru and narration. Pass it on!

Sorry not sorry. I ate a French fry from the air fryer that was leftover from last night and had been sitting out.

Never not going to respond to “cute top” with “thanks I have a name though”

[cis soldier]: Tell him to shoot the bad guy! …Wait, sorry, tell “her” to shoot the … *THWAP* (cis soldier is shot dead, as DEI and pronoun enforcement rendered him unprepared for combat)

Gotta love Laura Jane Grace. I love her solo stuff as well as “Against Me!”’s music. Feeds my punk background and grounds me during the early parts of transitioning Im in now. 🩷🏳️‍⚧️🎸

#Albuquerque folks, let’s show for this. I have some questions.

Albuquerque resistance today!! #albuquerque #indivisible #resist

Felt a bit more attractive after working on my makeup game this evening. Still not where I want to be yet.

Ok, so the books “Dreadnought” and “Sovereign” (a two book series) need to be made into a movie. Who do I talk to to get this done. Someone get @aprildaniels.bsky.social in touch with a major studio and a contract! Stat!

Santa Fe!
