Hello everyone! Happy Pi day! I’m definitely having a relaxing day of work. Well maybe not stress-less I can say it is much less stressful than I anticipated. I’ve been doing some reflecting on a project I was involved with last year. Studying some of the code and how it has evolved over the past… Continue reading Happy Pi Day!

Final Fantasy XI
Welcome this is that post you probably didn’t expect to see. I just wanted to mention that I miss FFXI. I give a lot of time thinking about how much I miss the days of yesteryear and how much I want to go back. I know it’s an empty world (for me) and the people… Continue reading Final Fantasy XI
LGBT&church
Maybe this isn’t the place to get an honest reaction. I just want to kind of vent. My wife is a pastor. I’m not sure if I mentioned that. I’d be surprised if it hadn’t come up yet but allow me to rehash that she’s a pastor. She’s been involved with hiring someone and she’s… Continue reading LGBT&church
Gender Hypotheticals (With responses)
Gender Hypotheticals, I found this on a discord I recently joined and plan to go through and give my responses. We typically approach gender (how we feel and relate) and sex (what genitals and/or chromosomes we have) as if they are fixed and unchangeable. Culturally, we are taught to assume our gender based on our… Continue reading Gender Hypotheticals (With responses)

Waking up a Woman
I often find myself just waking up as a woman. Like ok I know I am one already but as though I was born a woman assigned female at birth, you know what I’m getting at here. I want to wake up and already be there. I don’t want to have to explain anything. I… Continue reading Waking up a Woman
The reflection in the tears
I feel a deep despair. The mirror reflects a man in dismay I awake with the same hair, I know–it’s silly to expect to awake a different way. Unaware I was the pain reside, Unaware I was until eyes were open, In the sadness a reason hide, In the mirror one of the men. A… Continue reading The reflection in the tears
Feeling… despair
Emotions: hurt, confused, rejected, helpless, submissive, insecure, guilty, ashamed, stupid, inferior, lonely, tired, sleepy, apathetic, isolated, insignificant, hesitant, skeptical, withdrawn I feel hurt because I know my wife won’t accept me as a woman. I feel confused because I want to do anything I can to keep her. I feel rejected knowing that what I… Continue reading Feeling… despair
Let’s talk Endwalker
I have to say I enjoyed the new Endwalker expansion to Final Fantasy XIV. I’m assuming if you’re here you’ve already played through Main Scenario (at least as of 6.01). It was tough to get into. Eventually we end up in Garlemald and I’ve always had mixed feelings about the Garlemald storyline. This kind of… Continue reading Let’s talk Endwalker
Anecdote: Raised a Girl
This story is one that is not my own. I also do not know the person in any capacity other than that of which they posted online (reddit/quora). So yes this is an anecdote. The reason I’m posting this is to have people reconsider gender identity–how it forms–how activities have little to do with identity.… Continue reading Anecdote: Raised a Girl
