Fin was a fascinating person, a maverick, maybe a revolutionary. I’ve been following this project for a bit now and hearing about this woman for a decade. Maybe we need some of her message right now. If you want to help make this film happen you can find the go fund me here: igg.me/at/Finisia/x...

“Still punk as fuck” I intone quietly as I boof my progesterone and light the incense on my altar to the Mesopotamian goddess of nice tiddies.

“Why did you transition? (science fiction answers only.)” I was always fascinated with modding, the cool kids were pushing the boundaries of biological destiny while I was getting left behind, ready for a change, I tracked down a street doc, hacked my biophysiology to manual and never looked back.

Why did you transition? Wrong answers only One night when the moon was holding water I stumbled drunkenly in to a ring of mushrooms and woke up in the fae realm where I spent 7 years in service to faerie witch before I managed to escape by trading my old name and gender to a wandering peddler woman

This piece is just so good. Ana bravely says the quiet things out-loud. I can’t speak for anyone but myself but I can say I’ve encountered a surprising number of trans folk who’ve talked about some similar experiences.

I ugly cried watching the Superman trailer today, somehow it made me reflect on how, as a child, I believed there was something innately good and noble in the hearts of people, that we would choose compassion and kindness, but we don’t, even when it would be easy, we often choose anger and exclusion

I think this week has given me the first reminder I’ve seen in a long time that people will remember that the distinction of class is more important than the division fermented by the “culture war”.

Is it just me or has this election cycle seem to have left a lot of people spoiling for a fight? I feel like the “winners” of the election are still angry and everyone else is starting feuds among allies? Like, we were all geared up for a fight and it was a defused. Literally edging the apocalypse.

I’m having a great time on vacation with my children, a reprieve from all of what’s going on back in the US. From here, free and relaxed, I can see something I haven’t seen in awhile, community, people coming together, people finding each other as we find common cause in resistance. Let’s do this.

Do you have trans people in your life who you worry might be losing hope? Are you, maybe, one such person yourself? Or, are you a fan of great writing by incredible trans people and want to read what they're thinking in this historic moment? Assigned Media's Stay With Us package launches today.

Gahhhh! My girlfriend has been visiting her friends and family for three weeks and she gets back tomorrow and oh my goddess I’m just an eager mess of anticipation waiting for her.

I became a tgirl the same way as everyone else - raised by a billygoat, my foster parents send me to wed king Midas’s daughter. As the wedding song reached its crescendo, Cybele appeared in all her divine beauty, in moment of rapture I liberated myself of manhood and was taken as her eternal lover

I became a t girl the same way as everyone else - one night while trancing on cyber-stims to escape the trauma of life in a dystopian metropolis I wandered, half dazed down a neon lit alleyway to a secret door marked with a hyper-glyph and paid a street doc 20,000 nuyen to trans my gender.
