Need to vent about the NHS displaying institutional ableism yet again, but no remaining spoons today :Sighing_Face:

Writing this post in the hopes it reminds us to do so when we next do have spoons.

Notes to our future selves when they wake up

• You have a lot of positive qualities that you do not give yourselves credit for
• Your worth is not defined by how productive you are in the eyes of others
• Your struggles are real, and you're doing the best you can to deal with them
• Others genuinely like you, even if you don't understand why
• Māui catten snuggled up behind your back and fell asleep

Note to selves

Update driving licence and passport when possible.

The photo on those (pre-GAHT and hair removal) increasingly doesn't look like us any more 😅

We've come to a mixed realisation :TransHeart: :NonBinaryHeart:

A lot of folks taking gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT):

• have a lot of misconceptions about it.
• have the misguided belief that their gender-affirming care provider should be trusted unquestioning to know what's best for them.
• don't know that there are different types of GAHT or that they have a choice in the type.

We know that we can write PSA posts here without issue to dispel myths and spread information, but if we want to reach a wider audience, we are pretty much gonna need to turn it into full articles and video content 🤔

However, the moment we do that, we're going to need to start being even more cautious about what we write or say, especially as:

• We don't want anti-trans people to become aware of certain resources.
• We may end up breaching terms and conditions of places like YouTube and Twitch.
• We may put ourselves at risk of breaking UK laws... or being treated as if we have, even if we haven't.
• We may end up risking crossing the streams between our work-profile and our online alias, which could increase the risk of being doxed or essentially becoming "persona non occupabile".

There's also the issue of us being a neurospicy disaster with unreliable executive function, who struggles with committing to any long-term projects... or even doing basic tasks sometimes 🥺🤦‍♀️ :AutismInfinitySymbol: :ADHD_Butterfly:

Really need to actually look up our notes tomorrow and write up posts. Need to write up:

• Rant about voice training survivorship bias.
• Rant about HRT being delayed for trans youth.

Note to selves: write a vent post about survivorship bias in voice training.
