Crazy; I have tried bringing up this scenario to a few people who told me they've considered transitioning in the past, and they weren't trying to hear it... like, at all. For me, it was simple: How many people have you heard speak of tattoos they regretted getting, cosmetic surgery they've regretted undergoing, people they've regretted marrying. I know what you're probably thinking: apples and oranges. That's how many of y'all feel, very quickly, before truly considering shit. Point is, most times, all those decisions - which oftentimes proved to be life-changing - seemed like THE perfect thing to do at the time. Simply referring back to shit like that should make one at least consider the possibility of regretting "changing" their sex. It's one thing to refer to yourself as something others, with or without validity, feel you're not. But, when you feel like you need to cut your dick off or attach a dick and balls just to prove that you are what you already supposedly thought you were... that just doesn't make sense to me. 🤷🏽‍♂️ But, whatever. Most of y'all don't read anyway, so I'll stop here. https://www.instagram.com/p/CPRdfnCpoZTWrl7kyIR3n-Nwi42ccOiAPKr1Oc0/?utm_medium=tumblr

When my mum purchased #TurtlesInTime, it cost her 34.99 USD*. I was about six years old. Like all SNES games, it was programmed into a circuit board, encased inside a SNES cartridge, enclosed in a presentable box. I would pop that cartridge into my #SuperNintendo, hand my couzin, Erica (@extrica_ ) a remote and have a ball for a good thirty minutes. Fast-foward nearly thirty years later, I am able to take the same data from that circuit board, put it into a thumb-sized memory card (which can hold every single SNES game ever released four times over), pop that memory card into a laptop, program PlayStation 3 controllers to emulate SNES controllers... and enjoy the game I loved playing as a six-year-old boy, as grown man with my five-year-old girl... essentially for free. So many points one can take from this post. 1. You never know what the future holds. 2. Never neglect your inner child. 3. Put in the work to make your child's life relatable to yours, so that your chemistry is in constant sync. 4. Teach your kid to want to complete what he/she initiates, valuing the losses that come in between. * 34.99USD today would be about 68.61USD (Also, note that 34.99USD was NOT the price for SNES games upon release. My mother either got a deal, or waited for the game to get less new.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO0_QYRpZmgEtukcpOM32MTaqy1SZXMtJrC89c0/?igshid=1uqyqriyv478l

There are women out there who can say that they made me fall for them, care for them, please them, enjoy moments with them etc. There is no woman out there, aside from this God, who can say that I was willing to create a life with her. Today goes out to my Queen, worthy of experiencing a version of me that no other woman has or will ever experience. Happy Mother's Day to the mother of my princesses and my life-partner! #ZinAndMichelle #ZinsGirlfriend https://www.instagram.com/p/CAAsfYFpLEam2xgY0q1B576UyNSM_xAA8GkMyM0/?igshid=ni4iu6z4vny0

I cannot believe it has been nine years since I first saw your chubby face. Your mother is extremely important to me. I have no memories of life with her not being a part of it. When I see you, I see a little version of her, and I hope I make it so that when you think of me, you think of your "favourite old couzin," or "favourite uncle." Happy ninth birthday, Isabella! Keep making all of us proud! I love you. —Zz #ZinsCouzin #ZinsNiece P.S. I think you're gonna love your gifts. 🎁🛍👀 https://www.instagram.com/p/B_6TIsGplY0Mn5GqLm0y8Viqq9cMkrXZgUjyMk0/?igshid=1a6tdeq6b7sow

I still think of you all the time. Whenever I come home from work, I carry Zindelle and show her a photo of you and ask her who you are. She gives a kiss to the photo of your image and says, "Nana-Nána!" You will be viewed as a god. #ZinsGrandmother https://www.instagram.com/p/B_dChq9pXhL9ra8_gClZZQzUeApuN4sjr0QTQU0/?igshid=1l305e1zu9g4a

Another 941 LEGEND, gone. 😞 If there is anything I remember about you, it's your voice, and how you and my mom would cut ass on me whenever I wasn't looking presentable. There would come times in which I would be coming home from school, seeing you from a distance, and feeling like, "Daaaamn... How's my hair? Let me fix my tie. Ugh... I look like sh*t! Let me walk slower and take the hill* instead." One day, I was coming home from school - college, at this point - when I saw you walking into the building from a distance and was like, "Eh... I don't look good, but I'm too exhausted to walk that hill right now." I remember your staring at me as I was walking to the building. While I was crossing the street, I wasn't really worried about what you might say. But as I was getting closer, I was like, "F*CK! I could have just taken the hill. Now she's gonna tell my mum I look like crap, and I'm gonna hear it." Anyway, she looks at me and says, in that voice that I will never forget, "mmmHi, Jorgito! You look nice!" I'm like, "😕😮🙂😀😃🤗 HIIIII LEONOR! YOU LOOK NICE, TOO!" From that day, we spoke a lot more when we'd bump into each other. Leonor, I am deeply saddened by your loss. I will never forget you and will always love you. May you rest easily until we meet again. I promise to look presentable. 💖😞 *the building had two entrances. https://www.instagram.com/p/B9wPP3SJ-IYbcrXLUcyyt_bPuIZ9YfCHnGVkwE0/?igshid=jz41lgsi3dea

While I rooted for the 49ers, the better team ultimately won. F*ck it, I got to play Bingo with the fam. 🤷🏾‍♂️ (What you're seeing is the bingo champ, holding up a box full of the money we all put into them games, surrounded by happy people who just want their money back.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8GxQpIJOoWmYY-qb2TE76_CQxDbKBSU7wRlLg0/?igshid=1xu96cjysmahq

Yesterday, I was informed by my mum, that you lost lost your battle with cancer and, man, did that hurt. When I think of 941 Jerome Avenue, there are a select few faces that immediately come to mind and yours is always one of them. I never saw you upset. Even if you had something disappointing to bring up, you would provide hope that things would get better. You showed me love from when I was a baby to the last time I saw you, and I want to thank you for that. I will miss you and always remember your love, your voice and your smile. Although I am sad that you are gone, I am glad that during your life, you were able to have beautiful children, to raise them, and to see them grow up into beautiful, loving parents themselves. R.I.P Doña Maria. Your presence will forever be missed. 🥺😞 https://www.instagram.com/p/B7_p_eoJ1XyFUH7A_LbJnR-V6Q5Sn3CDj0prCw0/?igshid=1tmxhoytjad7a
