G'day peeps, google sent me a a coupon code for 4 months of free New York Times games (no credit card needed). I don't want it. If anyone else wants it, just reply and I'll DM whoever asks first (it is almost 2:30 though so may not be instant)

Idk if its a shareable code (might be locked to just my email or something) but I'm willing to find out

So I retired even earlier last night, about 830. Kitten woke me at 230am by gently patting my forehead with his paw and slightly extended claws. I finally managed to get back to sleep after he mewed and hassled me for about half an hour, but they still got me up before 5am. Spent the morning doing aa stuff, my sponsor is a gem. More emails for my volunteer work this afternoon and was able to share some info which is really going to help someone and I've been getting some delightful replies for help I've given in the past. Having shared lived experience really bonds people.

EDIT: The kitten must have been eating too fast and sounded like he was choking but only puked, I went to see if he was ok and mumma cat came in growled at me and her tail puffed right up. I moved away from the kitten and she got in between us and growled again. She's such a wonderful mumma. She got over it pretty quickly and enjoyed some scritches soon after thankfully.

I re-read this page of the gender "dysphoria" bible, if anyone is interested on what the hell is going with my journey. It's like I get a whole system wide upgrade, there's just so much going on. I've experienced a lot of things in it in surprise so I'm kinda glad I didn't read earlier and know what to expect. Plus the section on adhd really gave me some backup knowlege to what I'd recently thought was happening. It's anecdotal but based on a lot of andecdotes. It's annoying to think I'm still just a guinea pig in this science because we've been marginalised for so long, but at least we're moving in the right direction in Australia. Note: It's not called gender dysphoria anymore, it's called gender incongruence. The term hangs on though but it's not always the trans experience to live in a state of dysphoria despite many of us having some level of it some of the time.

God damn targeted instagram ads. I’ve found some jumpers/tshirts that I now desperately want but the store looks low key dodgy and the prices are deceptive because they’re in American $$.

But Urgh. Look at these.

Wednesday night trivia was a total blast, even if I did stay out too late for a school night and had a few too many drinks yet again. Dry July is looking appealing this morning.

I went from Bach to Crowded House, and suddenly I’m on the Babe soundtrack. I cannot explain this
