KC continues to make me proud.

Simplified explaination: the city gov has refused to comply with any gender affirming care ban, like the one the MO state government is on track to pass.

I will not be surprised if Jeff City tries to nullify or overturn this. Or simply penalize the metro in other ways.

But even if that happens... even if they succeed... the simple fact that this passed by a near-unanimous vote sends a clear message.

It sends a message to non-cis residents that the city is on their side.

I wish I could retake it bc I hate how I look but omg. Jared was such a sweetheart. I brought in a photo that I drew from 7 years ago. When I walked up he called me “darlin” and my brain short circuited just bc he was actually speaking to me. He asked me about it. It’s definitely not a good photo by any means but I kept it thinking maybe someday I’d meet him. I told him AKF has helped me through some of my darkest times. Then I went in my way.

When I went through for my photo I brought my son in (who was passed out 😭). He asked if he could hug me to which I told him of course. I thanked him and as I was leaving he pointed at my boy and said “Like a light”.
