Still the fact I almost did makes me think I'm almost ready to start pushing some boundaries in small ways.

Was at a professional work session in person yesterday. In the introduction round, they asked people to give their pronouns. I came this close to saying "any" but held back.

Maybe next time...

Just entering 50s...and I think they're going to be pretty good :)

For some reason, Civ 2 wasn't coming up, which I spent way too many nights playing at the campus newspaper office I worked at, lol.

Not sure if these are significant, but ones I played a lot at various times in my life (from arcades as a kid to what's currently on my computer...)

Hurray!!!

That does not sound like a good idea.

Or do I do something i have never done in my life, which is shave my head and try to rock a bald guy/bald chick look?

The problem is the thinning on top, which has picked up in the last year or so, but I'm sure I can figure out solutions to that.

The last time I tried to grow it out, I looked like an axe murderer, and was too scared to shave my beard off.

Just admitted to myself that using the weather or a busy workload as an excuse not to get a haircut is just masking my desire to grow it out and see what happens.

So I think this is evolving into my venting and trans account. Or something like that...

(What they have ultimately wanted - as opposed to what I was sold on - plays to some of my worst weaknesses)

The sort of day where, while all my other professional projects are going great, one that feels cursed has reared its head again and made me wonder why the client thought I was the perfect fit for it.

It suits you really well!

The sort of day where things have gone well professionally, where my ego has been flattered by people who admire my work, and where a "snow day" has allowed me to take care of some outstanding tasks.

The Tumbler Ridge shooting is already fuelling anti-trans hate in Canada | Xtra Magazine Bad actors on the right are leaping to connect the shooter’s trans identity to the violence

NEW from me today:

Tumbler Ridge is mourning a horrific loss. But how the shooter's identity is being talked about online, and the dangerous links being made to trans people at large, will have resounding and dangerous impacts in the months and weeks to come.

I find it helps to think of creativity as seasonal. You will have your time of planting new ideas, cultivating the ones that sprout, and harvesting them. But most important--and this what I see people forgetting--is that a fallow time is necessary in order for your creativity to sprout again. Its...

Seeing this thread reminds me how much I miss being able to go to LA and look forward to the day where I feel comfortable enough to do so again.

Thank you for that :)

I admit I'm surprised that by this point I haven't heard anything from any of my neighbours catching a glimpse, especially if I'm walking to my car.

That sounds a bit like what I'd like to do.

I have noticed this whenever I post photos in this account, which is one of the reasons I tend to pull them down quickly. Does not appear to be an issue with my male account.

Today was generally a good day to wander the city, watching as people appeared to emerge from post-storm hibernation.

So good to hear!

The sort of day where intense focus leads you to finish a project you've been putting off in record time. Such a satisfying feeling, especially in the midst of this strange winter.

Forget snow day - I think this is going to be a snow week.

I've worn glasses for nearly my entire life. At this point, it would seem weird not to wear them...
