#so uh. I was stressed out of my mind for my “court hearing” for my legal name change.#I literally dialed in to a teleconference call. heard the end of the case before me (congrats small trans child on your new name!)#and then was like “yeah I'm not committing any crimes or dodging any debt” and I wasn't asking for a gender marker change so like.#took a minute tops. now I just need to wait for the mailed documentation and then I get to officially update it with shit like dmv etc.#I was stressed as hell but like. genuinely easiest thing ever.#of course the judge mispronounced my middle name. part of the reason I want to change it. imagine being named cock.#you think I'm joking but I'm not. I had to keep that middle name a secret cause I knew I would get laughed at in school.#anyway. more paperwork for the future. but step by step we get that shit done. I will create myself into who I am whatever it takes#new first middle and last name. free of heritage. free of history. free of family ties except those which I choose to maintain.#I am not owned by my parents. I am not controlled by my upbringing. I am beholden to no gods.#and I am free to be whatever gender I want now. suitably un-gendered name and now I'm free.#I'm fucking free.#eliminate the nails in your feet. eliminate the stakes from the bottoms of your heels. walk on and walk away.
