This goes out to the other #trans people in the Fediverse, let's destroy the myth that "you're too old" to start transitioning later in life. I started hormones when I was 35 and my changes have been amazing..
..how old were YOU when you started your transition or HRT?
Please boost for visibility :)
Texas constable tells legislators ‘We’re not interested in being the potty police’ at bathroom bill hearing

One of the magical things about being trans and out it that, just by existing, you're going to help other people figure out how to embrace that part of themselves. We're everywhere! But... we're often pretty scared.
So, what do you do when someone asks you for help questioning their gender?
This week on #StainedGlassWoman, it's a guide on Being the Big Sib, so you can help them without hurting them, or yourself, in the process.
Artist: Laura Jane Grace (she/her)
Album: Hole In My Head
https://laurajanegrace.bandcamp.com/album/hole-in-my-head
Why? Because Laura Jane Grace's music has been a companion to so many of us over the last decade, and she just released a new album!
Where to start?
"Dysphoria Hoodie" has quickly become a favorite of a lot of trans people, speaking to those days when shit is hard and we reach for our most comforting wardrobe item.

I'm also really loving "I'm Not A Cop." Really speaks to the way we start policing each other in leftist and queer communities, and reinstitute the same crap.

Welcome to #TransTuesday!
This week we’re discussing something every trans person has to deal with, all these little things that add up in ways cis people likely don’t even realize.
It’s death by a thousand cuts with TRANS MICROAGGRESSIONS.
Let's talk about what they are and why they're awful, including examples of the most common ones!

After the recent attack at Barton Springs, I analyzed publicly available city hate incident data with the help of #Austin Free Press. We found that #LGBTQIA+ folks face more reported hate incidents than any other marginalized group.
We break down the data and report on what the city plans to do about it: https://austinfreepress.org/barton-stings/

Aritst: Chelsea Wolfe (she/her)
Why? Her music captures this amazing tension between delicate and powerful that holds one in the place of unresolved liminality. Not to mention, one of the few artists who has really coalesced what I want most from goth music.
Where to start?
Her latest album is brilliant.
"House of Self-Undoing" is probably one of the best songs to start with, being a great example of delicate possibility riding waves of intensity.
https://chelseawolfe.bandcamp.com/track/house-of-self-undoing
My other favorite song is probably "The Liminal," as it hits the feels of being a genderqueer and neurodivergent weirdo that lives in liminality.
