Consultation complete!
First surgeries scheduled!

It feels surreal. Can't believe this is happening soon! But I'm locked in and committed.

We go forward; only forward.

Hello you beautiful people.

The news is horrible.
So much is out of our control.

This feeling isn't fatigue.
It's mourning.

Mourning a world order we once knew, felt safe in, and understood.

But a new day will dawn, and the sun will shine even brighter.

Breathe. We will survive, and endure.

Windows 11 is turning out like Windows ME and Windows 8; utter rubbish. I hope they extend the security updates for Windows 10 beyond 1 year.

How can Canada Post sell people next-day shipping knowing they will in fact not deliver the parcel the next day? There aren't even any reported service disruptions in the area the mail was sent to, and it's now been 4 days.๐Ÿ˜’ Tracking doesn't even say what the delay is for or give an estimated date.

Please let Canada into the EU. We share a land border with the Kingdom of Denmark via Hans Island, and have deep historical, cultural, and institutional ties to Europe.

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

Happy Friday, everyone.

Make sure to hydrate, get outside and touch some snow, take deep breaths, and create some joy.

The state of our geopolitics can be overwhelming. But be mindful of how much negativity you're consuming. You're no good to anyone if you're burned out.

I absolutely still encourage consultation(s) because it may provide the clarity you need to really make a decision you'll feel fully comfortable with. ๐Ÿ™‚

Given all the complexities and potential complications that come with surgery, lengthy recovery time, costs, etc. I'd say if it doesn't feel like something you *need*, than it's a surgery you can avoid. If you love what you got already, stick with it. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Any advice for a girl wanting a set of those but not sure whether to wait until after at least 2 years on HRT?

Oh, and the shirt is nice too. ๐Ÿ˜œ Solid choice by your wife!

Canadian troops wonโ€™t be joining European military force in Greenland Small numbers of troops from European countries โ€” including Denmark, France, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Britain โ€” are being deployed to the Arctic island.

This is not a good move. If Greenland falls, Canada is next. Canada needs to stand with Europe so that if the time comes, they will stand with us.

This mindset is almost verbatim what the Nazis said, and it led to World War 2. We are fucked as a civilization if Miller and his ilk continue to set the agenda of this criminal regime.

Agree 100%. Doesn't matter how many time I watch it, it still gives me shivers down my spine. The third act alone elevates Rogue One as a whole to ESB & ROTJ-tier. Wish we would get an uncut version or be able to at least see all the deleted scenes.

We should see if Denmark and Greenland also want to collaborate on closer defense in the arctic. The USA sounds more like Putin's Russia every day.

Even with all that's passed by me, I kind of feel like it's still just the beginning. I still have all the surgeries ahead, which objectively will be a lot harder than anything I've dealt with to date... It's a little intimidating. But I've made it this far, and I know where I want to be.

So happy for you, too!

-2 months HRT to +2 months HRT, I think my brain was just so happy that I was transitioning it saw what it wanted to. Looking back at those old photos, I cringe.

And anything from over 15 months ago... I don't recognize that person. It's wild how much I've grown & evolved.

Those pre-HRT and early HRT months are ROUGH. But as I and many other trans people will attest; it gets better, you just have to be patient.

Things get even better when you put in the hard work to achieve your goals. The journey of becoming who you are is not always easy, but it is rewarding.

Yesterday was officially my 1-year HRT #Tranniversary.

It hasn't been easy. But this was something I knew I had to do. I made a promise to my future self to see this through, and I'm 1 year of progress closer.

The next 1-2 years will see even more changes and challenges, but I'm ready for them.
