Intro
I just realized that I'm posting political content on here without anyone being able to know my bias. I figure it's time for an introduction. I'm AJ. I'm a trans, poly, lesbian who as of yet (June 2026) hasn't been able to access HRT. (Pronouns are She/They) I do want HRT and bottom surgery, when I have the money. I've been going by AJ since before I knew my gender identity because when it was proposed to me that I could've gone by AJ when I was younger, I felt very attached to the idea of changing my name. That was sort of two-fold, I've come to realize. I was bullied horrifically as a child (likely for neurodivergence), and I felt *separate* from my name at the time. That said, I wouldn't mind a new, more feminine name once I am more "passing." I have known I was queer (rather, open to the fact that I was) for over two years, and I have known that I am trans for the past year. I was kicked out by my parents in May 2025 because they are conservative, and I was exploring non-christian religion and my queer identity. I have two younger siblings that I have not seen in more than a year. I am studying Maritime Studies, a liberal arts degree focused on coastal life. I just finished my first year in this major, and I had previously been an engineering major for two years. I have been diagnosed with ADHD, Severe Generalized Anxiety, Severe Social Anxiety, Major Depressive Disorder, and I also have (but have not been diagnosed with) Autism, OCD, and more that I am less comfortable sharing. I am white, and have not decided on religion yet except that I don't believe I'm monotheistic. I do not have any ties to my ancestry, and I do at times feel I'm missing out on cultural experience. I believe that radical change is required to make our society safe for the powerless. I have an opinion that if someone finds my beliefs problematic, they should inform me and give me resources to educate myself to the best of their ability or choose to not engage. I have personally left the alt-right (I was 18 at the time, it's how I was raised), and it was in no part because of how angry anyone else was, but how welcoming that others were. I DON'T think that's what I *deserved* per-say, but I believe that anything else is just more likely to drive a further divide and that only goes to serve the elites that want us divided. You can summarize this opinion as 'if you can be a safe space for de-escalating, do so, otherwise, don't spend your energy fueling the fire.' That said, your opinions are valid. Venting about that kind of thing is not inherently evil, it's just better done with friends or therapists. Anyhow, this has gotten a lot longer that I would've hoped, but now if anyone wants to comb through my profile to see my character and who I am, here you are. If you want to know more, just ask.
