Androgyny and Being Nonbinary

Hey Internet Peeps, it’s A. K. again. Today, like many days, I woke up to my wife joining a live on TikTok. This one, like most that she joins, was on the validity of trans women, or trans people. Like, what the fuck is that even? How are trans women or trans people…
Androgyny and Being Nonbinary
Hey Internet Peeps, it’s A. K. again. Today, like many days, I woke up to my wife joining a live on TikTok. This one, like most that she joins, was on the validity of trans women, or trans people. Like, what the fuck is that even? How are trans women or trans people not valid? They always say my gender, nonbinary, is invalid as well.

Fear of Failure (And LGBTQ+ History)

Hey there Internet Peeps! It’s A. K. again.. I’ve been thinking a lot about failure lately. I always feel like I’m failing. Largely because I still base my metrics off of my mother’s scales. I got a 96% on my Statistics midterm. It’s still an A. But somehow, I…

Hey there Internet Peeps! It’s A. K. again.. I’ve been thinking a lot about failure lately. I always feel like I’m failing. Largely because I still base my metrics off of my mother’s scales. I got a 96% on my Statistics midterm. It’s still an A. But somehow, I felt like I had failed because it wasn’t 100%. When I told my sister, she said it was because our mom would’ve said, “Why didn’t you get 100?” or something along those lines.

What I’ve Been Up To

Hey there Internet People!! It’s A. K. again! I’m hopeful today. I finally started actually talking about my mom in therapy. I cried y’all. I just cried when I even mentioned wanting to talk about my mom. She’s such a touchy topic for me. It’s hard to even write about her…

Hey there Internet People!! It’s A. K. again! I’m hopeful today. I finally started actually talking about my mom in therapy. I cried y’all. I just cried when I even mentioned wanting to talk about my mom. She’s such a touchy topic for me. It’s hard to even write about her right now without crying. And I’m writing this at school.

Worthy of Being Seen

Hey y’all, it’s A.K. again. I’ve been contemplating something my wife said to me. My whole life I never felt seen. I was always in my room playing solitaire listening to music while my mom and sister were hanging out in the living room. I didn’t really mind it so much, I…

Hey y’all, it’s A.K. again. I’ve been contemplating something my wife said to me. My whole life I never felt seen. I was always in my room playing solitaire listening to music while my mom and sister were hanging out in the living room. I didn’t really mind it so much, I guess. I don’t really like attention being on me, unless it’s academic.

I wrote some words about my personal experience with gender, being under the trans umbrella, and just the goings on right now. Let me know what you think.

Canada, Panama, and Greenland are not enemies of the United States.

Fascists are though, both foreign and domestic.

Wrote some words about how I was feeling.. Especially after hearing Trump say "Officially there are only two genders now in this country," and I happen to be nonbinary.

[Mexico City, Mexico]

Following the attempted murder of a trans woman. Cops just let the alleged perp go. So actionists from the Mexican sex workers union stormed the judicial building.

This is what it looks like when you lose a massive spacecraft on its way to orbit right over the Caribbean. Lots of commercial flights turning/holding/diverting to avoid falling debris from SpaceX's Starship.

i'm so motivated by the difference between the group reaction to anita bryant's death vs david lynch's. the difference between someone who was technically an artist whose art was forgotten because her hatred consumed it, vs an artist who will be forever remembered for what he loved
