Someone made this 360 degree image of Writers With Drinks (that’s me on stage) back in 2017. Forget who did this but it looks so cool.

The truth, the untouched truth, is kinked up, wouldn’t fit on a blurb. The truth is, the mirror is a roulette wheel to me. My gender is a radio station that I pick up on clear nights if I hold my antenna the right way. I’m out to everyone, yeah — but some people only know as much as they can stand to know.
I’m confused a lot of the time. And I try to make confusion a virtue, because if you’re not confused, there’s something wrong with you.

Figuring out your own gender identity is hard work, requiring large amounts of self-awareness and vulnerability. Your gender isn’t just a label: It’s a matter of how your inner conception of yourself meets everyone else’s perceptions. For anyone, of any age, this can feel like riding a unicycle across a muddy field while bystanders shout unhelpful advice.
Now imagine dealing with all of that while being denied potentially lifesaving treatment and put under scrutiny by authority figures whom the state has deputized to police your gender.

“Sweet potato! I’m gonna take you out when this is all over, Amity. I promise. No monsters, no mysteries, no deadly duels, It’s going to be the most mundane, slice of life date ever and it’ll be awesome!”
