It's been a year since I start HRT and I thought I would offer some of my various neuroses to you. I talk about my anxiety in dealing with promoting oneself as an 'identity-brand,' and how this provided unique colour in the more general experience of changing how I am perceived in the eyes of others. Cursed with the mark of the media, I try to reconcile my discomfort in the act of mass promotion with my desire to create a document of my experiences and for others to maybe take solace in being familiar with these experiences.

It's Gamer Time folks. I am joined by Champion Sloth Casey Explosion to discuss finding joy in a medium with vast potentials for wondrous creativity in spite of a countervailing force that uses this medium as a seemingly crass, but continually relevant wedge issue to stoke reactionary sentiment. Is all nostalgia Fascist? We answer this definitively. The answer is yes.

I am joined by author and artist Bitter Karella to discuss our mutual obsession with the bizarre political trajectory of the webcomic Sinfest, whose creator Tatsuya Ishida went from centrist liberal to second wave feminist to SWERF to TERF to outright Fascist in the span of a few years.

I talk to musician Alex Riggs about our shared love and significant attachment to Ween and how their music unexpectedly intersected with our experiences as Trans women. Resisting urge to say shit like "These Baby Bitches get into a real Transdermal Celebration" and failing.
