Trans gal here! For a time I identified similarly to your last paragraph. I wasn’t sure what I was was, but I didn’t feel particularly male or female. I told people I was nonbinary because I wasn’t sure where I was in that mix for a more specific label.
Eventually I realized that I aligned as more of a tomboy in fashion, but my identity felt firmly female despite my shifts in expression. That was my journey, wishing you luck on finding yourself!
Definitely haha, the book uses footnotes at times to try and distinguish between the cyberpunk fiction & real-world incarceration practices since the two overlap so much
Chain-Gang All-Stars is really good! It’s closer to modern day reality than far future cyberpunk, but still interesting dystopian sci-fi.
The premise centers around televised nation-wide gladiator battles where incarcerated people fight to the death for their freedom. The book has some razor sharp commentary on the US prison system as well as reality TV and profiting off of vulnerable groups.
When I called my doctor to get an appointment for HRT they said their next available was in 2 days, insanely quick.
Yeah it’s sad realizing my parent’s love really was conditional
I came out to him over christmas 2 years ago and that’s the last time he’s spoken to me. His last words to me before he read my letter were “Love you always”
The art style reminds me of Roadwarden, looks amazing!
Yeah, feels like a form of gish galloping
Used to tell my partner I wish I was gay to teach my parents a lesson in empathy… Wow did that backfire being trans & gay
