happy pride! this is my second summer without tits, third on testosterone. sometimes the enormity of the international, intergenerational, interconnected, intersecting systems of privilege, power, marginalization, and oppression that shape who i am feels overwhelming and incomprehensible. gender-affirming care saves lives, as in i was unable to do the work of figuring out who i want to be until i could exist in a body that felt like my own. gender-affirming care saves lives as in i could not imagine a way to continue forward in the body i was in.

i grew up in a world that fundamentally failed queer kids like me, where the main comfort organizations could offer was the idea that "it gets better". i've spent most of my life dissociated, a messy combination of gender and neurodiversity and cPTSD, trying to make it to the "better". and now i'm here! in adulthood, learning to feel my feelings, trying to imagine a way forward. and it's still hard and it still sucks and sometimes i want to throw up hands up say this is it!? "it gets better" and this is all there is?

i believe all people should have access to the care that i've been lucky enough to access. i recognize it's an enormous privilege that i'm able to exist comfortably as myself now, but it really shouldn't be. it's so frustrating how obvious it feels that things don't need to be this way. but im also realizing that guilt and shame and self-flagellation won't actually contribute to the systemic change necessary to extend this privilege to more people.

i am committed to building towards a world where self-determination isn't a privilege at all but the baseline. and im still learning how to do that work in a way that's sustainable and realistic.

for today, i'll let myself take pride and joy and comfort in asserting. i am queer. and i am still here.

2. selfie, moss is wearing denim overalls and her top surgery scars are visible.

3. mirror selfie in a dirty round pink mirror. moss is wearing jeans and a brown leather bulldog chest harness, visible top surgery scars and body hair. moss is also wearing over the ear headphones and is holding a blue journal. calico cat naomi is sitting on the corner of their bed. her room has strong autistic vibes, including a stuffed dragon on a shelf and posters of garnet from steven universe, superknova the korean trans girl musician, and ones that read "mutual aid is the future", "queer til death", and "rest is productive".

theres this character in the movie blood quantum after getting his dick bit off by a white girl who –mid blowjob– turns into a zombie goes about destroying everything he loves, or loved, and ends up dying alone in a field his brother fires off a round and leaves him there to get gored by a herd of zombies (i should clarify the zombies in this movie can only ever be white)

ive been feeling like him more and more as of late, i feel like my body is on display for white consumption the thing is though, zombies only fuck with live meat so i lay stretched out upon a platter and pieces of me are flayed off one by one by one

for a while i didnt realize they were hurting me id smile as they stuck their knives into me because at least my gifts gave them life but now i know and cannot forget; at the same time i cant stop giving myself up it feels so bittersweet what will they do once im dead?

My gender is a conversation I'm constantly having with myself. Its a form of storytelling I'm always expressing. I am transgender and always transitioning.

butterflies are an insect i enjoy

they flutter without a care in the world

my favourite, ever since i was a little girl

why have they turned against me?

they create a swarm in my stomach

clouding my lungs, gasping for air

my asthma can’t compare

to the way the butterflies are frantic on the inside

sometimes they’re dormant

but when something important happens

i have to remind them that they can’t absorb

meant that they can’t go towards my brain

clouding my thoughts, doesn���t ease the pain

going to my head they get stuck in my throat

it makes me choke

on my words and all i let out is a croak

as if a frog has replaced my larynx

do the butterflies feed on my hysterics

i think it’s over until i fly into a web i can’t see

or get stung by a bee

but all i wish is to be is free

from the swarm in my stomach that brings me everything but glee

i have been trapped in my cocoon

my wings are folding and starting to prune

and i wish to flutter without a care in the world

and be what i admired when i was a little girl
