so since I missed national coming out day

If you follow me y’all should already know that boy, girls, rainbow swirls, I’m queer af, but I’m also genderfluid.

I didn’t want to say anything on coming out day, so I missed the big shebang…I think mostly because I didn’t think it affected my life that much because I have no desire to go on hormones/transition physically [it wouldn’t make sense to go through expensive medical headaches only to adhere to a binary?]. And honestly because I’m not trans and I’ve presented as a female as expected my whole life, I don’t feel valid….which is something I’m working on.
My best friend and The Boy know. I thought about it and while it’s not visible it does affect my life, just in mental and social ways that are mostly honestly my problem, so I don’t think I’ll tell my parents. They’ll do the thing they do with their eyebrows, and then completely misunderstand the situation and be assholes about it, and then we’ll fight, and it’ll be just another thing that’s shitty between us.

so thats it. happy late coming out day. I doubt anyone will see this post, since it’s 2am here, and maybe i did that on purpose, but don’t worry about pronouns- they’re not that big a deal for me personally, and while I would answer to any set really, the feminine she/her/hers or neutral they are still ace.

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before/that time I had to explain Jesus to a six-year-old I was babysitting

*walking past a church*
Child: *points at a large wooden crucifix replica out front* who is that?
Me: uh, that’s…Jesus…
Child: who is he?
Me: well, in the Christian religion he is regarded as the son of God
Child: is he real?
Me: *internally screaming FUUUUUUCCCKKKK* um, that’s a good question. Evidence suggests there was in fact a historical personage who once lived and that we now know as Jesus. How closely his life resembled the events written in the bible is somewhat unknown, and largely a matter of belief, I suppose, although what isn’t, really?
Child: *long pause* okay.
Child: *points at the statue again* Is he real?
Me: oh. OHH. You mean like, is that a real body???
Child: yes
Me: Oh good god Tyler, no, I think it’s wood
