Social Distancing Log

Missed yesterday's log, so I'm lumping it in with today's.

Yesterday, Mom and I took Chester to the dog park. It was the Trans Day of Visibility, so I went decked out in my "I'm a Genderqueer Dragon" shirt and my genderqueer pride chainmaille bracelet. I just wanted to be extra visible for a teeny bit of it. We mostly stuck to good distancing (me better than Mom), but Mom did hand a little girl a treat to give to Chester, so that's... a thing.

I think Dad stayed in yesterday? Not sure. He went out today, though, to the grocery store. I overheard him talking to one of his sisters this evening, and it sounds like not being able to go out is having a harder time on him than I thought, so I'll try to think more kindly of him and his frequent grocery store trips (which means I'm still worrying, but I'm a lot less angry at him for it).

Today I took Chester to the river walk area, and we spent about an hour wandering around there. There were some other groups of people, but I made sure to keep good distance from them; Chester tended to get a little closer, but by coincidence his leash is six feet long, so as long as he was at the end of it, I figure we were both pretty safe.

An excellent plus is that, on our walk today, I saw that the eagle's nest by the river is once again occupied! I'd missed any occupants on my walk with Mom the other day, so I was extra happy to see an eagle landing there today.

And now, back to bread and My Cat From Hell.

Podfic alert!

Something else I forgot to post on March 31st:

The person who recorded From the Liar's Mouth was taking podfic commissions, so I decided to take faer up on faer recording services, and bought a few fics' worth. The first one went up yesterday (at the time of this writing): Translucent Complexion by alexseanchai!

Alex wrote it last year for TDoV, and by some amazing coincidence, the recorder had it ready to go for this year's TDoV! The fic itself is Miraculous Ladybug and set in a universe where Marinette is an out trans girl, and Adrien is a closeted trans boy; over the course of the fic, they each learn the other is trans.

All in all, it was a fic written by a trans person, with a recording made by a trans person and sponsored by a different trans person, to celebrate the Trans Day of Visibility twice! That's a lot of trans energy ♥ Definitely worth checking out—though I may be biased 😘
