I very much appreciate my friends for letting me know that it was okay to ask for help.

"I'm a strong independent disabled woman. And unfortunately I am not in a situation where I can work much. The minimal work I'm doing and being paid for by Tusky is a blessing, and it's just about covering my basic needs. One of my basic needs right now is paying back my student loan."

I haven't updated http://guidetomastodon.com/ in a while. What's new? What's out of date? What should be different?

Please submit a PR!

Three of the most important things I’ve learned since I began transitioning

1) being honest with yourself requires you have some idea what your own wants and needs are. Acts of service are wonderful, but I also have to address what makes me happy

2) it’s better to be hated by many but truly loved by a few than to try and please everyone all the time. My existence is an affront to the status quo and that is a beautiful thing

3) being afraid of being myself because of what others may think was a form or serious self harm
