Firstly--Congratulations dearest sister, that is awesome! And a sticker came to mind that I had to attach to this reply, forgive me, haha.

A supportive spouse who actually recognizes their partner as a kindred spirit and loves them for being who they are? It is a revolutionary concept in this day and age sadly, but thankfully, you and her are a Microcosmic Revolution. Viva La Lesbian Revolucion!

As for book recommendations, best I got are not resource books but just fictional reads that I think do a good job with the subject. "Love Me For Who I Am," centers around a Nonbinary character but explores a plethora of LGBTQ+ Concepts and societal responses to things(Body Milk is great for the skin, learned about it through that series). "The Mimosa Confessions," tackles the difficult reality of transfem coming out to a society that does not care for the person but for who they figured a person was or ought to have been. I have not finished it yet, it is a bit of a hard read, but the author I think did a good job considering the limited research he cited as part of his writing(not being part of the Family himself).

    Bit of a long day, had a bout of failuregirl due to an incident that I later was able to clear my mind and realize was not a case of actual fault on my end. Still means I have to deal with the aftershocks(hopefully just tomorrow), but on the plus side, means I can focus more on other things I need to do once the court nobles have their blabber round.

    But aside from that, I just took my sleepy medication, which combined with how long the day was should be plenty restful.

    By the way, you needed this reminder: You are very very pretty, and so so lovely. <3

    Whether tomorrow we see each other once more,

    Or whether this post be the unknowing end,

    I am happy I had today to say that I love you.

    I hope you are all doing well, nearly halfway through the week! Many things come and go, change and flow, throughout even a week, even days and hours! Time marches on and so do we, and things constantly change. The good things and happy things true, but even so, it gives us new good things to find, and new happy things.

    Always keep near and dear to your heart that you have someone who loves you dearly, and even if things do not seem too good right now, know that there are good and happy things to find. You are strong and I believe in you precious.

    Sleepy feeling go fwoosh, no keyboard or screen look face down on comfy sheets. I have work fresh and early on the morrow, another fun week of excitement and thrills.

    You guys have made my recent days quite lovely, so thank you for that. Having idalogue, being able to share things and offer perspective, and overall just not being alone. Quite a far cry from the hermit life, quite like it.

    See you all when the morning still-moon remains but my time begins anew.

    Thankies for you all being you, love you all so so muchies. <3

    Join me on the winds of mood.

    Apologies for the uncharacteristic post, I usually keep these things to myself, but whatever it is compels me to write, so here I am writing. And getting progressively loopy as-typical for this time.

    Today certainly happened. I would not even really say it was particularly bad in itself. But I cannot help but to reflect on the burdens I am carrying and the fact that there is no reprieve from them other than the alchemy that keeps me from melting.

    Though my love and trust has ultimately stabbed my heart and back every time extended, hooray for constantly-affirming Anthropophobia, I nonetheless continue to choose to love. I choose to care. I choose to give a damn. But it gets so hard to constantly have to choose what others seem to just be able to do. When I have said that I love you all, I mean that in truth. I have only been here for a short time, but I nonetheless want your happiness and joy to abound. And I want to help and so I try, mixed results between advice, solidarity and bad jokes, but still.

    As it stands, I am alone in my day-to-day. Even when around others, while I try to remain cheerful and positive in the face of everything I try to shoulder to keep them from having to, I feel alone.

    Then there is disassociation of not even recognizing myself the originator of things once done and written, seeing a stranger who once bore a version of myself, distant or present in the now. I help with Medical, I recall a noteworthy incident but cannot call to mind the me that wrote the documentation, or the full me who had to treat an incident.

    I am able to recall beginning this post, though at present my entire world basically starts and ends with this post. Not literally, but that which came before is hazy, and thereafter will likely be a swift trip to sleepville from the medicine.

    I do not really know my point with the post. I guess it is just to put something in the ether before the sleeptrain demands my ticket,

    If anyone has a music suggestion I would love to listen to them sometime.

    Thank you all for being you, I love you.

     

    The alchemy lures me to sleep,

    But before I do, I wanted to offer some Manga suggestions from my Library:

    • Kin-iro Mosaic
    • Mayo Chiki(CW: Sexual Themes)
    • Kokoro Connect

    The gif used tonight is Alice Cartelet from Kin-iro Mosaic.

    If any of you want some suggestions, feel free to comment and give me a genre or general description of what you are looking for, we probably have something in our Library that we could suggest!

    For now, nini. Love you all, thank you for being you! <3
