Accidentally having my top surgery pre-op consultation on TDoV the same way I accidentally got married on Pride that one time.

1930s news about a trans woman: Well I'll be curfuffled young Corlotta Jhonson has transformed herself from a dandy into a dame and what a Bombshell she's become. And How!

1930s news about trans men: Wanted dead or alive this young lady who started wearing trousers, the tomboy terror known only as The Crust is wanted for snorting the President's personal stash of opium and has slain nearly every senate member in a pistol duel.

THE X-FILES || “Bad Blood” 5.12

[and-his-hands-were-24-crows]

This is a book that I bought in 2002, when it was newly published. I misplaced it for a couple of decades and then found it in a box in my parents' house last year.

It is... incredible, to start rereading this book that was so influential for me and is somehow more than 20 years old. To read introductions from people who experienced the gender politics of the 50s and 60s and learned and grew and saw so much evolution in their lifetimes.

It feels sad, too, to read about the same LGBTQIA+ infighting that we still see. It feels melancholy to read about times when maybe there was less of that. I love seeing the hope for better things, and I worry that perhaps we have not done well enough in these last two decades.

In her introduction, Joan Nestle says, "Think of the richness of the conversation 50 years from now, if we survive the present world."

2002.

If we survive the present world.

Kids these days missing out on the unique joy of thinking they've discovered a brilliant shortcut to slogging through Thucydides' history of the Peloponnesian War (skipping all the speeches), realizing they have made a critical error (almost the entire body of the work is the speeches actually), using the book's impressively robust index to research a very specific topic for a 12-page paper because there's no time to actually go back and read the whole book like they should have done in the first place, (giving the paper a purposefully pretentious title including a colon and an em-dash), and getting it back from the professor with an "A" and a comment about how they clearly understood the material and engaged in a meaningful dialogue with the author.

Is anyone else ever genuinely shocked when you find out you have an impact on someone’s life? A coworker can be like “I’ve missed seeing you” and I’m just like “???? you?? missed me????? My presence has an effect on your daily experience???? I affect things??? W h a t ? ? ?”
