I did not have “girl who wears fashion beanies” on my transition bingo card.
People think my transition was male to female but the real on is apparently “high femme in makeup and heels” to “skater girl in converse and beanies.”

I need MULTIPLE pairs of these!!

And I need to wear them mismatched with fishnets and a miniskirt and a tight low-cut top that says “Not for Male Consumption.”

How am I supposed to concentrate knowing these exist and are not on my body?!

Okay, coming out of FFS recovery, I’m seriously trending skater punk and it’s weird to me. But it SHOULDN’T be weird.

Like, I was literally a skater punk girl in high school (or at least as close to skater punk girl that a boy-shaped skater punk person could get in 80s steel town NY without being murdered) so this shouldn’t come as a surprise to me. Nothing should be a surprise.

I’m starting a new punk band and playing Sleater-Kinney and Mary’s Danish songs. My wife’s present to me for my 40th birthday was a longboard. I literally play roller derby. It’s almost a #ThereWereNoSigns type thing at this point.

So why does this feel like I’m coming out as skater punk?

@FinalGirl Because you lowkey are and I'm here for it?
@Impossible_PhD where was this a year ago?! 😂
@FinalGirl I didn't see it? I dunno, Tyla, I'm just skating by as best I can too.
@Impossible_PhD oh, no, I should be clear. I mean where was this in ME . Like how did I not see this a year ago. It’s weird to look back at myself like “well duh, obviously.” 😂
@FinalGirl Oh, lol, sorry there. I've had A Bit Of A Day.
@Impossible_PhD hugs. 💕
@FinalGirl I hasn't been all bad. Just, a lot of stress and furious work. I composited like 200+ pages worth of novel today.
