August 23, 2021

Well summer is officially over. Well okay maybe not so much when the temps are still like 108 F. But for me it still is the season of summer is over as we have returned to the classroom.

My Trans Reality Isn’t Free of Growth

July 27, 2021

When I tell people that at times I have a super difficult time with my dysphoria and being out in public they often scoff at me. They tell me that I pass perfectly well and that there is absolutely no reasons whatsoever that I should not feel totally and fully comfortable at all times in all settings with anybody. Wow, that is a tall order. To pass at all times in all settings anywhere? How about naked? Okay, well then…

Why Allies Are Important

May 17, 2021

Why are allies so important? Because most days I don’t feel like killing myself, but some days I do. Work Update……….. The teacher I spoke of on Tuesday came by this morning. She politely asked to speak to me and began apologizing almost immediately upon entering my room. I thanked her and apologized as well.

Health Care for All?

May 10, 2021

(This was initially published on my FB page, but I have chosen to republish it here. This is really a two parter, with this being the first portion. Enjoy.) I said to a friend at work today that shockingly I would be willing to wear a badge stating I was vaccinated if it meant I could stop wearing a mask. This was overheard by another teacher. She disagreed and said masks should just be gone, and no vaccine should be…
