Trigger warnings: mentions of periods and period blood
So in honor of my period being super late (and probably just not happening) I will tell you of one of the most interesting ways my period has started.
So it was senior year of high school, I'm in like the second class of the day and my English/American film teacher decided that for Halloween we were going to watch the Blair witch project. (The first original btw)
Now I've already seen the movie before so it wasn't that big a deal to me. Especially cause I was dealing with some wicked cramps but wasn't bleeding yet. So I was only passively watching it while typing a story in the school issued iPad.
Right as I start to pay more attention the cramps get worse. And I'm thinking to myself that if my period starts while we're watching this I was gonna loose it.
And of course right as they uncover the bloodly hand I feel a gush in between my legs. All I could think was "of course, because life hasn't laughed at me in a while it might as well be now!"
Thankfully I only had to sit another two minutes before the class was over and I was one of the first few people out of the class room that day.
A few of my friends found it hilarious when I told them what happened and honestly I couldn't be mad either because how often can you say that your period started during the middle of a horror movie.

I hate when I feel dysphoric cause then my adhd brain decides that it's time to unpack every little thing about my body that upsets me and then I just sit and feel gross. Which then kicks me into a sensory overload.

Successful trans men
Part 2
I wish I knew about men like these growing up, I wish I knew that trans men could be successful after a lifetime of never seeing anyone ‘like me’ excelling in life. So here are some trans men - some that you may have heard of, some that you may not - that are successful in a range of careers. Never let being trans hold you back, never think you can’t do something, never think there is not a place for you.

So I fucking can't stand people some times. My brother just got kicked out from staying with roommates because he was "homophobic" and "harassing" the girls that were there.
Which is utter bullshit because my brother has always loved my sister and I. He has never said on bad word to or about us when my sister came out as Bisexual and when I came out as trans. While he may not always understand, he never lets anyone talk shit about us either. He even congratulated me on starting testosterone!
Not to mention the moment a girl seems uncomfortable with my brother, he is damn quick to back off and give her space or even apologize if necessary. My mom raised my brother to respect women and he does.
But thankfully everything is figured out so he can come stay with us for awhile. And I hope that one day he settles down some where he can be safe and happy permanently because after all the shit he's been through in life, he deserves that peace.

You know what I remembered just now? That the first time I realized I might not be the gender I was assigned at birth wasn't feeling dysphoric, it was a feeling of euphoria.
All my life how I felt about my body was mess. Until I hit middle school and realized that I didn't like looking like a girl.
I remember that I was in the bathroom spiking my mohawk up, I was wearing a mens batman shirt and a pair of mens swim trunks. I looked in the mirror and realized that I looked like a dude and I thought it was the most amazing thing. I actually felt desirable looking like a guy far more than I did as a girl.
After that I did everything short of binding (didnt know that was a thing at the time) to look like a guy and I always felt better doing so. It wasn't until high school that i started to experience dysphoria and that was because of my chest and my hips.

So I've been on testosterone for a week now and I'm so moody and angry. Like to the point where I'm annoyed with myself. But other than that, my voice sounds a little flatter and my throat feels different.

So I know I don't post a lot on here but I'm gonna schedule an appointment with planned parenthood to hopefully start testosterone soon! Where I used to live the nearest one was hours away and where I live now it's like ten minutes from my house which is awesome!

No Nuance November: The reason we're seeing trans kids with less dysphoria isn't that they're transtrenders; it's that as trans acceptance progresses and trans people are better represented, kids are exposed to tons of different ways to be men and women and both and neither. Like, you're less likely to think you need to have a penis to be a "real man" if you've seen tons of real men who don't living happy, authentic lives. If you aren't forced to compare yourself exclusively to cis people, you're less likely to focus exclusively on things that differentiate you from cis people and more likely to focus on what makes you feel comfortable and seen and understood.

So my asshole landlord saw my packer yesterday...
I put it in the bathroom, fully intending to put it in a drawer before he showed up.
And due to my adhd I completely forgot about it, just sitting innocently on the counter as my landlord declares that he wants to check on the ceilings.
It wasn't until after he left that I realized what had to have taken place as I saw it out, when I walked into the bathroom to turn off the light that he had left on.
A small part of me is really put out that he didnt ask me anything about because I would have given him such shit.
But a larger part is super thankful because he already thinks I'm a godless heathen who sleeps with their siblings and is a raging fucking lesbian. And I sooo didn't have the patience to deal with him over that.
