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

    When random people I don’t know well bring up trans rights stuff while talking to me I’m always a bit suspicious that they clocked me and that that’s why they brought it up.

      Reminds me of this time I was going to the restroom, and there was this old white dude behind me going there, too. I was thinking that he was just going to wait his turn and go in after I left, but when we got to the bathroom doors, he just tries to go into the men’s restroom first, and I let him. I wait outside for him to get out, and he sees me standing there and says, “Oh, you were trying to use the men’s restroom?” with a pretty baffled face and tone. And I just responded with a masculine voice and said, “Yeah…”

      What gets me is that this was much earlier on in my transition.

      On this note, fuck these gendered single-person restrooms especially.

    family nonsense

    My mom has been absolutely horrendous to me ever since I came out. She’s refused to talk about trans stuff with me even though I have asked 6 times now. She has avoided it every single time. She’s been guilt tripping me and acting like I’m being unreasonable and needy when literally all I’m asking is for her to call me by my name, or at the very least tell me why she won’t. It’s been a thing for like a month and a half now. Since she was ignoring me when I was trying to talk to her, I ignored her when she needed information from me, and it led to a 6 hour inconvenience on her part. Now she’s gotten it into her head that she’s been nothing but supportive and great this whole time and I’ve gone no contact at the slightest push back from her, when in actuality, I actively tried to talk to her for a month and a half and she ignored me. I guess she’s getting what she wants, because I’m not planning on talking to her again after this. She’s acting like I never gave her a chance, but I did. That was it. And she stepped all over it.

    I was just reflecting on the day I came out to myself as a trans woman and I feel all the emotions flooding back to me and now I’m sitting here in bed bawling the happiest tears I’ve cried in a long time. This feels like pure trans joy and catharsis.

    Mfw I’m somehow getting gender euphoria from a damn pen. It’s not even anything femme it’s literally just a nice simple pen that feels great when writing and twirling. Why is my brain like this.
