The big 3-0. I had trouble thinking of something to wish for when there’s nothing else I could want.

#Heartstopper is a balm for the queer inner child in all of us who didn’t get to see happy, sappy love stories about our community. Watch the show on Netflix, read the graphic novels, it’s all worth it. 🦋🌸

For years I’ve told people that I’m a one issue voter, and that issue is abortion access. I get hostile reactions from folks of all political stripes, especially from cis white men (yes, democrats!) who accuse me of voting with my vagina.

Nine years feels like a lifetime. On that horrible day, I felt the walls closing in on me. The boy I was falling in love with called me a “wh*re.” I had never experienced such physical pain and self-loathing. I had no concept of what to do, who to tell, or how to tell them. I fundamentally could not imagine my future anymore.
