So StarCraft is really, really hard… *sighs* Ah well, trying not to get discouraged. Signed up for a Reddit Tournament, also tried to get a proper stream up by the audio wants to feedback or go mute, and never produce anything normal. Oh well. Switched from Terran to Protoss, doing slightly better; but I just [...]

Includes Jacqueline Carey on io9.com and Graphic Novels. Making this a separate post from ‘Visible’ below because I wanted to keep the focus on transsexuality before; this post will lack such focus. First up, today Jacqueline Carey answered io9 readers questions about ‘Santa Olivia’ (My review of which can be found here). Not a big [...]

I’ve reached an odd point in my life, I’ve started to receive the attention of men and I kinda like it. Moreso, more and more thoughts have been creeping up in my mind where I’m with a guy. It’s something I’m not really sure has meaning or if I’m willing to accept it. I think [...]

After several years of planning, raising funds (which in the end came all at once) and wanting, it’s finally done and I love it.

It’s been with me the last couple of nights, but it’s been worse now. It seems like forever I’ve been in this position; loosing all my energy to fall asleep early, waking up later that night with new found energy only to loose it once more. I need to talk, but I don’t have much [...]

I think it is a beautiful thing to wake up to. Took the shower like the artist told me to, pat it dry with a towel. Now all I have to do is keep it dry, and not pick at it while it heals. Right about when it is finished healing, I go back and [...]

It’s been all I could think of this past week. Even to the point of having a couple dreams about it. Something about finally after a couple years of beginning, to carry a design inspired by something which has… well, inspired me, and to feel that needle puncture my flesh thousands upon thousands of times. [...]

So, as mentioned early this morning, I was going to contact a tattoo parlour and get a consultation about having my transition tattoo done. Well, I was surprised when I called that they had a consultation open for this afternoon. I went down, met the artist (he seemed nice, though I was hoping to get [...]

It’s Wednesday night and I’m back at my desk. I hear the ‘morning pages’ technique works, maybe I should do that… It’s been a few days since Kat went home and I’ve been left to look over a good long time without a relationship. I tend to keep details involving relationships short as the other [...]

Quite a bit has been happening, I’ve been so quiet lately. (Other than the FFTactics post below which turned out a lot longer than I was expecting) I’ve been out more, meeting people over drinks about this and that. One person an acquaintance of my mother’s who turned out to be a really cool person [...]
