Being a trans woman creator is awkward when you have a lot of content before you were out.
This is all of me in the last 7 years of being on the internet, both on YouTube and Twitch, and how much I've changed and grown throughout all that time, even before coming out as trans.
I've seriously thought about deleting everything pre-2022, anything where I am male presenting, but I think (for me) it's better not to erase my past. I made this to help me process and come to terms with that, and to appreciate just how far I've come.
Also, I'm considering this all Pre-Transition because most of this is before I was out and actually transitioning.
ALSO, the beginning song is a recording of me playing Weird Fishes by Radiohead with a reverse pedal from 2010. It felt really meaningful to me to take a recording I made from a pretty dark and hard part of my life and make it something new by mixing in some ambient guitar and piano. The piano btw is the same soundkit Lena uses in the Celeste soundtrack :) Just paying homage my own little ways.
