PFLAG wrote back to say that they don’t have any regulars who’re parents of trans* kids, but that they’d love to have me as a member. It was worth a shot. I do love my parents but I think the farther I get in transition, the bigger the distance between us’ll get. Once I would’ve tortured myself over what to do about that, but now I’ve decided that if they can’t support me, all right. I’ll do this thing on my own, no problem. I’m just still holding out on the hopes that they’ll come round. And they probably will. Maybe.

Shoutout to the new followers: niyoniyo, violetcrimes, dowhateversnext, and freeskiparkrat! Thanks guys!

This is a more or less accurate representation of my style shifting since summer 2008. I used the same character—his name’s Vladimir—just to show the drastic change. (He’s actually changed the least. Go figure.)

Alternative title: Adrien tries to explain his feelings through metaphors again, in a misguided attempt to simplify things that can’t be simplified. Or: LABELS = BAUHAUS

EDIT: Stupid Tumblr. Reposted so you can actually read it.
