smashed my hand

After yet another tantrum: YouTube updated, and it took me a few days to set up my feed eradicator. Now I've got a good reason not to play guitar, so we'll see how that shapes up... small bones in the pinky, and I bruised the main knuckle, so it's quite painful. - Now, I hope that it's all in my head, but I sincerely doubt that. Here's my snark for those people who think that they can win me over: 1. Stop treating me like a child. Just plain stop saying that. I'm 29, and treating me like a child is why I'm behaving like one. 2. Stop saying 'sometimes you're trans' -- that's abuse. 24/7 or it's not gender-affirming.

I feel like a woman, but I express that in a different way than some people, though I'm certainly not unique among the trans scene for my gender expression. It's my eloquence that makes me a good activist. 🏳️‍⚧️ 3. There's not enough money in the world to pretend as if you didn't shun me and that's why I'm not doing Tina. I get to say no, you get to respect my decisions and my bodily autonomy.

4. Don't blame the strike: it's the strike-busters who are to blame for this. Had they graciously accepted that I'm on strike until people start writing to me like I'm their friend rather than dreaming of ogling me at a gig, this might have been avoided. 👋
