In my state they “just” decided to train the regular 988 operators to better respond to LGBTQ+ people in need

oh god oh fuck

edit: no disrespect to my mother, just, let me be my own girl god damn it 😭

it’s been so long since I’ve heard skirt go spinny

trans or not I’m gonna die poor 😎

(the really sucky part now is, I now have three names for myself, the only place I’m currently going by Hailey is here… and I never finished rolling out Hal, so it’s kinda breaking my brain that now I want to kinda clean all that up. Domain names, usernames, display names… school is the only IRL place I managed to go by Hal, everyone else knows me by my birthname… I’m holding back on tangenting on the logistics of social name changing & of course coming out…)

I had actually agonized over a new male name before, and eventually I settled on Hal… and it didn’t take long before the idea of a Hailey appeared… I couldn’t shake the name so it ended up sticking to an idea of an idealized partner. So when I found out I’m trans, it was only natural to pick Hailey.

Now, there are multiple equally valid (and a few invalid) ways to spell it so that was just kinda vibes
