K, I had to get up to go to the bathroom and couldn't get back to sleep, so I'm going to answer some questions and hopefully that'll get me back in a sleeping mood.

Why do you like Courtney Barnett so much? :P
She's a talented musician with a sound I really dig, for starters. But she also seems like a genuinely thoughtful and compassionate person, and it comes out in her actions. Like, for example, on her MTV Unplugged, she performed her really explicitly feminist song, "Nameless, Faceless" with Evelyn Ida Morris, who is non-binary, and the version performed is reworked to be a true duet that incorporates them both. And, earlier this year, she did a livestream concert and opened it with a blessing from an Aboriginal elder, who was given time and space to talk a bit about his people and their history. As a White American(i.e. some one who hardly knows about the history of the indigineous people of *this* country), I found that fascinating. As a firm believer in social justice, it's nice to see some of it in action.

can you cast razor leaf
Pokemon do not cast moves, they use them. Unfortunately, my trainer replaced it with Solar Beam, and they don't even run me on a sun team. Idiot!

do you use the same soap and shampoo from before your transition
Yes. I have always loved the smell of cedar and sandalwood. I primarily buy Every Man Jack. Love that stuff. Funnily enough, a girl I used to work with rang me out with it once and told me she uses the stuff too.

Serious question,

When you use hormone therapy, what happens to your penis. Does it get smaller, lose function like unable to get erection and ejaculate?

Do you want to keep your penis function whilst having a feminine body?
You're treading dangerous ground with this question: you're asking about genitalia. That's a very personal subject. You could easily google this. You should google this.

What is the average flightspeed of an unladen African swallow?
Look, I'm not the King of England, ok? I don't need to know stuff like that.

What are some of the best moments of gender euphoria you've had?
Almost missed this one, which is a shame, because it's great. A non-exhaustive list:

-When I visited my trans friend out in Oregon over the summer, I painted my fingernails for the very first time. A pretty blue-green shade. I couldn't stop looking at them, and it was a little painful removing it before I left. Also I got to go to pride with them, which was overwhelming but beautiful. Painted nails, mustache(RIP), she/her sticker, and no one batted an eye. So painting my fingernails is probably one of the very first things I'll do when I'm out-out

-When I searched "trans voice lessons" and found this woman(this wasn't the literal first video I clicked, but I did watch it the next day, and it's more illustrative): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2txYhkmhVts&t=65s
I cried tears of pure joy. I never dreamed such a thing was possible. Obviously, it's not an easy or fast thing, but I could literally sound like a cis girl with enough work and dedication.

-Oh yeah, I cry. Not often. I'm crusty like my sister. But I straight-up couldn't cry before. Not just because of toxic social conditioning, but also because I had to numb myself to survive. Being able to feel so fully and richly is great.

-Two months into HRT, I was putting a bag bundle on a cart to bring out to the front, and my grip slipped and it slammed into my chest. It happens. Except that time I felt twin shooting pains in my chest, yelped, and dropped the bundle. That was when I became aware of that development had started.

-I finally shaved my chest yesterday. I legit have boobs. They're tiny, but they're there and there's a lot of good growing to be done. Weird having bags of sand on your chest though, let me tell you :p

Really, if you want to be a girl/boy/both/neither, you can literally just do it. They can't stop you. It's never too late to live your truth.
