I'm going to do it.
I'm going to transition.
It'll take some time before I'm ready, because I want to lose weight first (among other things), but I can't keep holding it back anymore. I haven't been entirely honest about my gender on here: I'm AMAB, and for the longest time I considered myself to be nonbinary. August/Alice have been placeholder names for me, but they feel so empty, like a shell to contain and hide who I really am. The only places I've truly been able to "be a woman" are Tumblr and Discord, but then I log off and am forced to be treated like a man again.
Last night, though, I watched I Saw the TV Glow, and I was heaving and sobbing by the end. I don't want to live a life being somebody I'm not, just because it's safe and comfortable and the alternative is scary and unknown. I CAN'T do that. I owe it to myself.
^my hastily written journal entry in a sobbing haze at 2 in the morning, god I'm a cringe girl lol
My dear friend who's already beautifully transitioned gave me a bunch of transition resources and information, including the Dysphoria Bible, which you can find online and I highly recommend. It may be a few years of me figuring stuff out and going to therapy before I fully transition outside of Tumblr, but I HAVE to do this. I feel like I'm going insane, and I'm positive that this dysphoria has contributed to my collapsing mental health these past few months and years. I've been so scared and lonely and tired and self loathing, and every time I look in the mirror I'm horrified by the well-meaning but ultimately WRONG person looking back at me. And I don't care that the world is getting more and more transphobic. I'd rather potentially suffer and die as myself, as a woman, than live a false, empty life as a man.
I can't wait to truly be myself, for the first time in my entire life. For once, I almost feel hopeful.
Thank you for reading, ily ❤️

A quickly doodled fan comic from @umbraldame featuring a thing from beyond A.K.A. "The Blanket" and her ability to absorb not only nutrition but information from the people she digests! That would be pretty handy for investigating a mystery, if you could get past the question of morality.
This is one of the five playable monster types in Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy, and a fan favorite around here!
Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy is still crowdfunding on kickstarter from now until 2:00 PM CST on Friday, May 10th! Back it before it's too late!
If you want to try before you buy, you can download a free demo of the prerelease version from our website or our itch.io page!
If you’re interested in a more updated and improved version of Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy than the free demo you got from our website, subscribe to our Patreon where we frequently roll our new updates for the prerelease version!
You can also support us on Ko-fi, or by checking out our merchandise!
Join our TTRPG Book Club At the time of writng this, Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy is the current game being played in the book club, and anyone who wants to participate in discussion, but can’t afford to make a contribution, will be given the most updated prerelease version for free! Plus it’s just a great place to discuss and play new TTRPGs you might not be able to otherwise!
We hope to see you there, and that you will help our dreams come true and launch our careers as indie TTRPG developers with a bang by getting us to our base goal and blowing those stretch goals out of the water, and fight back against WotC's monopoly on the entire hobby. Wish us luck.
