~Thank you again —truly~

everyone say thank you greta

Monday, March 31st, at 7pm at the Minnesota state capitol, a crowd of over 100 gathered to watch trans people publicly take their HRT (all forms).

The action was put on by a group called TIGERRS (trans, intersex, gender expansive resources and services) and purposefully mentioned that all trans, intersex, gender expansive folks and their friends were welcome, and if they didn’t want to do it publicly/don’t take HRT they should come for community anyways. The action consisted of a local marching band Unlawful Assembly playing them in, a speech by a trans 17 year old, the unraveling of the flag with a new pledge to transness by the artist, a non denominational reminder of trans divinity, public HRT taking, and ended with a sing along and break for snacks. Intersex trans folks were given orchids, and sharps containers were provided. There were registered nurses, and members of community acted as security (though there were no issues). TIGERRS also shared out the Minnesota Trans Resource Directory, a 87-page guide to trans safe doctors, mechanics, restaurants, dentists, therapists, electrolysis spaces, shelters, etc, and resources on how to move to Minnesota. The directory can be found on their website.

Trans folks are not going away. We keep ourselves safe. We share and create resources and we show up for each other. We are here forever

they need to invent getting your pussy ate for girls with dicks. please i’m desperate.

Can we just appreciate that taking one day off of work to prepare this seems like not nearly enough. Impressive work

Hosted my most elaborate LOTRathon + feast yet. 12 hours, 12 people, 8 courses, 2 spreadsheets, planned & executed by yours truly. I took Friday off work to prepare.

Some details under the cut.

I’ve always wanted to do a real Hobbit-style feast (instead of typical afternoon grazing board + dinner) and this year I finally did it! All the planning paid off, it went off without a hitch. 😎 Early reviews included the words “insane” and “deranged” (honorary).

As for the menu, I took inspiration from other people’s LOTR feasts (mostly from Reddit, Pinterest, etc). However I wanted mine to be sliiiightly less carb-intensive than a lot of the ones I saw, considering we’d be eating ALL day and I didn’t want everyone to get too full too early lol. So I tried to alternate heavier courses with lighter courses and served fresh fruit & veg with every course. Some courses, like Dinner (cheese & potato tart), were meant to be more of a taster than a full meal.

I also prioritized menu cohesion/my own preferences over being super “fantasy accurate”. Examples—thin, aromatic shortbread cookies instead of typical thicker/bready Lembas bread, tomato confit instead of typical Full English-style roasted/seared tomatoes.

For recipes, I found a bunch of recipes and often combined elements or used them as a base and adjusted to preference. If anyone’s interested in the recipes I can provide more details.

Finally, I also printed out relevant book/movie quotes and set them out with each course but Tumblr is limiting me on images!

All in all, a very successful showing! 🥕🧅🍅🥓🧀🍓🍇

I’m so normal about dnd. It’s so normal to have a full dissection of my character’s psychology and motivations ready to go at any moment
