The other morning, I am told, as she was getting up, Scribe witnessed me contentedly murmur the word "Transgender" in my sleep.

I have absolutely no memory of this interaction nor do I have any idea what prompted it, but I am glad to know that semi-conscious Nate still has his priorities in order.

I figured it's time to share a word I've used a lot in my head

deadgender - inspired by the term "deadname" and refers to a gender you used to live as

(it's a bit similar to agab, but explicitly for those who don't identify with their agab and emphasizes having lived /presented as it instead of assignment at birth)

thinking about the 'hate terfs'/'love trans people' distinction.

like... i don't get mad about the people who loudly denounce terfs. i like to see that, in fact. is it a little performative? well, sure, sometimes. you should also be uplifting trans voices and all that. but i think it's one of those things where it's like... there are different steps in the journey of trans acceptance and different parts of the struggle for trans rights. if someone is yelling at terfs, i will trust them over someone who stays silent. i will work with someone who stays silent over someone who is loudly transphobic. i will argue with someone who is loudly transphobic before i argue with someone who is VIOLENTLY transphobic. it's a spectrum. but the thing is... if all you do is yell at terfs and you don't uplift trans people, you have to understand that you will not be the first person i go to for certain kinds of safety or discussion.

it's a piece of the puzzle, but it isn't the whole picture. hating terfs has its place, and i'm right there with you, but there are also deeper, kinder ways to protect and help the trans community.

Oh man I totally missed the anniversary of my initial top surgery last month. Partly because I had to have that second, follow-up one in October of last year due to complications and remember that one more vividly but. Still. One year of being flat for me.

no night is too hard when you have gender euphoria on your side

the only real reason i take uquiz quizzes is because it asks for your name at the beginning and it’s nice to type my true name

Trans points I've earned today: 2

My masseur thought I was a guy until I took my shirt off. (passing!passing!passing) I caught my brother manspreading on the bus, not only did I match him, I outdid him, and due to the rules of masculinity I am now the dominant male.

When you get your name change approved and want to tell everyone about your new, awesome name.
