He’s a platformed charlatan
In my latest Substack post, I finally conclude the unbelievable events of my name change last year.

One year ago today, my legal name change went through and I legally became Veronica! It was one of the happiest moments of my life!
Every conversation about height 😆😆😆
Important article from my friend @evln7.bsky.social about HRT.

They are going after DEI because they know intersectionality worked. And a lot of liberals and leftists both jumped right on board with finding people they could exclude to appease the imaginary “centrist” voter.
This is one of my earlier posts, but with last week’s Supreme Court ruling that jeopardizes the safety of all trans people in the UK, it seems very relevant to reshare.

New Substack post!
You may be familiar with @chasestrangio , the first open and out transgender lawyer to argue before the Supreme Court. This article is about my interactions with the trans forerunner who preceded him.

I always knew this is who I wanted to be when I grew up.
In a landmark commentary last year, 24 scientists from around the globe—all of whom either identify as trans or have trans family members—called for recognition and support from the research community. #TransDayOfVisibility scim.ag/4l8LK5O
I love that Transgender Day of Visibility exists. But sometimes visibility is the last thing I want as a trans person. This article discusses my experiences with Transgender Day of Visibility, and how visibility can be a doubled edged sword.

The following countries have issued travel advisories to the US for trans ppl: Finland, France, Germany, Canada, the Netherlands, and the UK, with Belgium soon to follow. Do you know how messed up your country has to be for the UK to think you’re transphobic?! Please be safe out there everyone.

The nonprofit I recently joined just set up our first equality connect pantry! I’m thrilled to be part of an organization that is providing 100% complimentary products for those in need in our community.

With all the shit coming down on trans people right now, it is incredibly unhelpful to tell us we should do something that is impossible.
Trans people have many options, but asylum isn’t one of them today.
Every time I hear this I feel like I need to correct people and that shit is exhausting.
Since the election, I keep seeing well meaning people telling trans Americans that they should leave the US and declare asylum.
Please, please, please, fucking stop this shit.
To my knowledge, there isn’t a country in the world that would grant the asylum request of a trans American today. 1/2
Have that friend ping you every hour for twelve hours or until they hear from you. If they don’t hear from you, their job is to raise hell that you’ve been disappeared. Yes, this is where we are. 2/2
If you are trans, live in America, and travel to a foreign country, I suggest tagging in a trusted friend when you are reentering the US. Tell the friend the time and port so they can plan to be ready. Then, when you near reentry, send a message that you are nearing customs. 1/2
Thank goodness there is still new research being published on trans health outside the CDC. Ev breaks down the new study and the positive impact of HRT for trans people who seek it.
I’ve updated my pronouns. She/her. I’ve removed “they” from my preferred pronouns list. When I first came out, I had memories that are best described as genderless. Now that I’ve been myself for over a year, it’s clear that these memories were based on how I went through the world, not who I am.
Go follow my friend Ev!
Here’s a pic from my vacation today. Two things this administration thinks don’t exist. They are me, a trans woman, and the Gulf of Mexico. I’m pretty sure both of these are real.
People like to say there aren’t trans kids. I was a trans kid. I wasn’t out. I was rarely happy. Seeing the social proof of how I am today and how often I am joyful because I’m experiencing the world with so much joy is incredible.
I have a date!
July 14!
LFG!!!!!
The feeling sad for no particular reason times. Felt.
The results from The Trevor Project’s 2024 national survey show that when queer youth was asked what people can do to support them, a whopping 88% said that people should believe them when they say who they are. Supporting queer youth does not take a Herculean effort. Just start by believing them.
There are over 35,000 concessions suffered each year by girls in high school volleyball. The rate is 7.5 concussions per 100 players. Highlighting one incident with a unique variable while not highlighting the other 34,999+ concussions is nothing but manipulation.
I mean, I think this auto response is a thing of beauty
