I came out to my grandma on Friday. Went through every scenario in my head beforehand (mostly bad ones) and had to stop on the way to her to gather myself but in the end all that panicking was for nothing as she is completely fine with and just accepts me the way I am. 🥲 I love my family

Played cards against humanity with parents and family friends on the 4th (that was a lot of fun), realizing a lot of them are very LGBTQ friendly

People will not STFU with the fireworks, it’s been ongoing from like, 7PM to 1AM since the first of the month

Ohhh, my parents are dirtier than Cards against Humanity. Some wisdom I’ve received from one of their visiting friends is “don’t use menthol mouthwash before going down on someone” and “pull anal beads like a lawnmower pull cord” 😉

As part of slowly replacing gel with injections I took my first shot a few days ago! It took several attempts and a couple of needles to actually have the courage to do it, but I’m feeling rather proud of myself
