It’s crazy and fucked up that being yourself is actually the solution.

y’all know that john mulaney quote “the things crazy people say mean nothing to them but everything to me?”

the thing about ARFID (or, at least, my presentation of it) is that my brain will refuse to interpret anything other than my safe foods as food. sometimes asking me to eat something off my list of foods would be the same as asking you to eat a shoe. it’s probably technically possible, but your entire body will resist eating it and it will make you distressed and then quite sick. it’s not “becoming a picky eater when I’m stressed”, it’s “stress removes my ability to see all foods as food”

I debated with myself whether or not to include Christine Jorgensen in my history of drag because technically, she was never a drag queen. She was never impersonating a woman, she was simply being a woman. However, her story was such a milestone and she was such an icon that it feels wrong not to include her.

Christine Jorgensen was the first American trans woman to undergo gender-reassignment surgery. Because her parents were immigrants from Denmark, she was able to travel there and stay through 1951 and 1952 while undergoing hormone therapy and then through several surgeries.

Christine was forcibly outed when a letter to her parents explaining her transition was leaked to The New York Daily News.

While she had intended to live a quiet, private life, Christine was gracious and humble when her return to the US was swarmed with photographers and reporters.

Even though she had never intended to cause such a storm of publicity, she never shied away from it. She used her platform to become a tireless defender of transgender rights, and was able to build her way into a successful career as an entertainer.

Even when faced with the most vile and violent transphobia, Christine was always poised, elegant, and quick-witted. Her style, charm and good humor endeared her to millions of fans. Her icon status is well-deserved.
