I LOVE DINOSAURS. When I saw that the Children's Theatre Company had a show called "Dinosaur World Live" scheduled for March I could hardly contain my excitement. I didn't need more information beyond the title. I was invited to see this on Friday and I was so giddy. All shows from this company are an amazing experience … Continue reading Jurassic Fantastic

Beauty. Photography. Community.
I am SO excited to be a part of this. I've been getting my makeup done by Betsey, the owner of Luminous Beauty for years. I've also had three photo shoots with Christi, the owner of Grinkie Girls. On Saturday, April 11th, we are all teaming up for a day of beauty, makeup demonstrations, style consultations, and photography. … Continue reading Beauty. Photography. Community.
Every Princess Needs a Castle
Or, at the very least, a cardboard fortress. Collaboration is one of my favorite things. Being able to work with a small group towards a common goal sounds a lot like group projects (which tend to go badly) but if the people you are working with are creative, smart, and imaginative then it's really exciting … Continue reading Every Princess Needs a Castle
You Can’t Spell “community” Without U and I
This weekend was the monthly MN T-Girls event. This was a challenging one to plan as I try to finalize the event about two to three weeks in advance but at the end of January we here in the Twin Cities were in the early days of ICE agents destroying our community. It was hard … Continue reading You Can’t Spell “community” Without U and I
Go See. Go!
Before I could even read, Go Dog. Go! by P.D. Eastman was my favorite book. It had dogs in it! Dogs in cars! Dogs at work! Dogs! It also depicted exactly what an ideal party should be. Now that I see this picture again, it's very clear that the green dog is going to win … Continue reading Go See. Go!
Your Unhinged Comments
It feels inappropriate and disrespectful trying to maintain any semblance of real life here in Minneapolis. This is a website focusing on celebrating gender identity and my perspectives as a t-girl. Much of who we are is shaped by our environment and what our experiences are like in the real world. For almost all of … Continue reading Your Unhinged Comments
Saturday Night with the Sassy Squad
I love art and I love wandering around renovated warehouses and I love wearing heels and I love wearing skirts so when I get to experience all of these things at once I am beyond happy. Last Saturday was such a moment. The MN T-Girls kicked off another year of adventures last Saturday with a visit … Continue reading Saturday Night with the Sassy Squad
Ghouls
Friday's post was a reaction to a pathetic man killing a woman and then calling her a fucking bitch. Obviously there's a lot going on in the hearts and heads of people around the world as a reaction to this and similar killings, and I was simply overwhelmed with emotion and thoughts after it happened. … Continue reading Ghouls
It Won’t Take Long
They said some men would be warriorsAnd some men would be kingsAnd some men would be owners of landAnd other man-made thingsAnd false love as the eternal flameWould move some to think in ringsAnd gold would be our powerAnd other foolish things But you who dream of libertyMust not yourselves be fooledBefore you get to … Continue reading It Won’t Take Long
It’s Beginning to Look Glamorous
The telltale signs of the approaching end of year holidays include a drop in productivity at work, discounted prices on televisions, and the annual MN T-Girls holiday party. For the last ten years or so, we have marked the end of the year with a holiday party which gives us a chance to wear amazing holiday outfits … Continue reading It’s Beginning to Look Glamorous
