Hi first post actually acknowledging I’m trans on Lemmy. My pronouns are they/any and I consider myself to be trans NB.

This photo is from about 18 months ago (somehow). I am not on HRT, the sports bra is doing some heavy lifting, and the camera is doing a decent job at covering the facial hair.

I decided on this photo as this is both a photo of me without my full face yet and also a photo that brings me joy because I can see myself in the clothes that I want to wear. No painted nails in this photo, but I do love having my nails painted (my SO is so jealous of how well I can do my nails even though I’ve only been painting them for a short time). Here’s some actual done nails!

I don’t know where I’m going with this, but I was feeling really sad and slightly suicidal tonight and then saw all of the joy in this space and decided that rather than wallowing I should find some light for myself and use this space for good.
