August, 2 years! I started walking for several hours per day, for both my mental and physical health.
There are so many mornings now when I wake up, put on my old worn out glasses, go to the bathroom and see a girl in the mirror. It's so joyful! Even if it's still sometimes confusing after so many years thinking that this was impossible. It clearly isn't though. 🥰

Here's some music I made. I'm pinning this and will update it if I publish more. I'll try naming the genres—but I kind of consider all of it to be nu jazz.

Hiii! #introduction (boosts welcome!)
To you queers I'm Jasmine [ʝasˈmiːn], neuroqueer baby emerita and silly mum to a lovely preschooler.
Most of my life was about music, until I eventually switched to philosophy, and then to politics, and eventually to myself. There's been a bunch of special interests and uncountable hyperfixations, and I've likely moved on from more things than most approach in the first place.
I'm on a mental health journey, uncovering, recovering, untangling and rebraiding my whole life. It is really taking me places. And I love the person I'm becoming! So I post a lot of selfies, but the changes on the inside are honestly the best ones. I'm learning so much every day!! 🥰
I'm a relationship anarchist! Flirting is fun as long as everybody's reading the room—just don't make it weirder than me please.
Lots of love! 💕

My important trans threads!
These three were pinned individually before, but I want to pin other things too, so I'm linking them instead now.

And that's my first year on hormones in pictures!
I liked this year very much in the end. The best part was finding out what a life worth living feels like. 😌
Thank you all for coming to my trans talk. 😘

Ok! Let's continue! I'll use more words for this part.
It's still August 2023 and I'm at 12 months HRT. Having just changed my legal name and come out publicly, I was now going out into the world as myself every day without exceptions.
This meant a shift. Previously I'd been presenting like a (feminine) cis man, making excursions into presenting as a woman. But now when that was my new baseline, I instead started making excursions from my everyday female presentation instead of to it.
In other words, I began exploring and creating my new social identity, as one does during puberty. :akko_smile2:
For the picture of my crossed legs, I used this fun phrase: “Sitting here in an oversized flannel shirt some guy left behind in my closet when she came out of there.” That was part of how I tried to establish my “new” identity with the cis people from my old life—the ones that didn't opt to stay behind when I came out. (I lost like two thirds of my network.)

August was also my first euphoria selfie—the one with a yellow top. I was laughing from joy looking at myself, and had to take a few breaths just to be able to take the selfie.
And… you remember the stick figure I was a year ago?
heh 😁
Those jeans are the same as I was wearing in the picture with the red scarf.

July: My boymode is failing me (as long as I wear makeup—no hair removal yet).
Also: These came in before schedule. I realised I wouldn't make it through summer, so…

That picture with the mustard yellow pants is the first of me in someone else's mirror!

May: then I stopped doing makeup. I got rid of T again during April and my mood got better.
On May 9th, I tried makeup again. On the first image I'm barely able keep myself from crying—this was so intensely dysphoric. In the second I'm shutting off and concentrating to get an ok selfie.
Then I started cooking food to forget about it, and half an hour later when I ran into the bathroom to wash my hands…
🤯
That moment right there. That's when everything turned. From that moment I started to transition for my own sake too, not just for the kid to have two parents.

March: Did my first makeup! Brought out the big camera for that one.
You can also see I've gained some weight… and where.

Skipping to February, I was still quite thin. But my T had just bounced back and I was eating a lot now, probably as a cope.
I liked the portrait selfie very much, but… not any more 😁

November: This particular t-shirt didn't look like before. Neither did I.

Before I go to bed, I've set aside some pictures from my transition that I like for various reasons.
Here's the evening of August 17th in 2022, maybe six hours after I started HRT.
You likely do not see it, but this is the most peaceful I'd ever looked in a picture

Let's have a moment of appreciation for the Finns, dutiful keepers of most conjugations in existence.
