thing i wish id been told earlier and more forcefully: transition happens in waves. youll have months where its big and huge and everything you think about, and then youll have months when it recedes and things get comfortable. its easy to think, at that low ebb, that maybe youve got to the other side of the initial hard parts. you havent. itll come back. more stuff will happen, youll muddle through Big Thoughts. its marathon, not a sprint.

Let me tell you about my new doll. Yes, you heard that right. I say "transition is weird" so often I'm honestly sick of it, but wow, transition is fucken WEIRD. So here's a story of growing up trans in a transphobic world, a solstice story about my amazing wife, a story about uncomfortable realizations and unlocking memories, a story about me curling up in a neotenous fugue state as I bawled my eyes out, and a story about my doll Elizabeth.
