For the foreseeable future I can’t get my name legally changed and because of that won’t be able to vote as my true self. This is because the attorney general of #Texas is so obsessed with trans girls that he has directed our department of motor vehicles deny gender marker changes on a driver’s license. The directive also states to send him, to a specific email address, all documents associated with the name and gender marker change.
So last week I cosplayed as a boy and #ICompletedTheAssignment
Screw you #KenPaxton and Dan Patrick. Also, stay out of my DM’s. No means no. That goes for you too #TedCruz.
@WrenArcher naive question: What are you going to do if Trump wins?
@kkarhan
I guess it depends on how drastic his attack ons trans people becomes.
I’m someone who is very fortunate in a number of ways when it comes to my transness and would be able to fly under the cis radar undetected unless someone happens to find this account of my hundreds of selfies.
But I have about year’s worth of estrogen stockpiled and that would be me time to figure out a next move.
Even if Trump loses we still a lot of states around the nation who are doing bullshit like this to trans people. I mean Paxton did this with Biden in office. And the Harris campaign’s position when asked about trans people has been soft and honestly, feels like she doesn’t give tow squirts of piss about our teeny little demographic.
Honestly, I don’t know though. It’s kind of a wait and see sort of situation.
First can I just say that you are not alone. Your demographic is much bigger than you think. You have a lot of silent support, that remain silent for reasons that cannot be explained in public. Just know we are here and we do care and speaking for myself, I will fight for your right to exist.
This veteran understands the meaning of swearing an oath to protect freedom for all Americans.
Well you got it! If it goes south for any reason I promise that I won't go down without a fight.
I saved my vote for tomorrow because of tradition. I will be voting in person to show them what a true patriot looks like.
Take care.
@jeff @WrenArcher +1
Wished I was eligible and hope I'd nit have to CSAR several friends and/or see that REFORUSA happens...
@WrenArcher I'm sorry you have to do that just to participate in your democracy. (it also amazes me that you can remotely cosplay as that with how you look)
@dusepo
Yeah, I get that a lot.
Honestly it is getting a little harder but I do wear a wig. I’ve never kept that a secret.
When I was powered by testosterone the hairs decided to start jumping ship in my late 20s. A baggy shirt. A sportcoat over that. The very male hairline and other stuff… people kinda see what they want to see so I’ve been able to cosplay as a boy at work also.
I’m not out at work for a number of a reasons but mostly because… Texas.
@WrenArcher Sorry you had to do that to vote, but I'm so glad you voted.
@WrenArcher I love you wren sorry you had to go through this.
@WrenArcher we love you sweetie
@WrenArcher This is good work and I feel the Universe will conspire with you to get what is rightfully yours. Thanks for voting!
@WrenArcher I'm so sorry you have to deal with this bullshit.
