A Visit to underDARE
I am often amazed at how many resources are available for non-binary people these days. When I was younger I wanted to be able to go into a store and look for clothes that would fit me, that were designed for me, and assisted by a staff that supported me. Even at my most optimistic, … Continue reading A Visit to underDARE

Coffee with The Tea Time Girls
The MN T-Girls has been a significant part of my life for eleven years but I usually don't wonder if it's as impactful to anyone beyond myself.

Girls Just Want to Have Lunch
This weekend was the monthly MN T-Girls event.

This was our first event after Pride and although the group … Continue reading Girls Just Want to Have Lunch
Thank You, Pride
Oh hi! So, Pride was this past weekend and it was lovely. Planning an event in June could mean anything from sweltering hot temperatures to storms but this weekend's weather could only be described as "lovely".

Pride Month isn’t Pride Monthing
Pride month is almost over... and maybe it's just me, but Pride Month hasn't really Pride Monthed this year like previous years. I might be wrong, but there seems to be less... hm, outreach and representation this year than last. I know that there is likely some pandering when major corporations do things like tweeting … Continue reading Pride Month isn’t Pride Monthing
