Hi! I’ve been extremely tired this week and nearly forgot that I was hosting one so I’m writing this last minute! I couldn’t think of anything so I’m going to write about one of my hamsters who is not Biggs; Meredith
Meredith was another hamster of mine from a few years ago during the early days of COVID, and she was the absolute sweetest little creature I had ever met. Very friendly, very gentle. She loved exploring anywhere I put her into and never bit me okay she did once ever. She was an absolute sweetheart and bundle of love and was with me during some of the rougher parts of my life
She unfortunately died very suddenly out of the blue one day at a terribly young age showing no symptoms of anything wrong with her prior, which breaks my heart to this very day
I never had her as long as any other hamster of mine but I don’t think I had any other hamster touch my heart in quite the same way. I miss you, girl

Congrats on being around people who bring up trans rights stuff. Pretty much only see transphobia expressed by people who I’m not out to.
Did have someone blame T on me being warm whom I wondered if that was an indirect way of her asking if I’d changed hormones since I’d last seen her years ago. Can’t say I’ve heard of cis people mentioning T in casual conversation other than maybe “alpha male” types? OTOH, the more precise and inclusive language is cool.
I’m really lucky that I live in a progressive area and even if people mostly bring up trans rights stuff to virtue signal it’s still infinitely better than speaking with transphobes.
