Mom's ok, safe and sound at home. I'm back at work. The camera deletion issue has been resolved, and all the gear is clean and ready to go. So, the question then arises here at the tail end of summer, where we hiking? I have taken a few photos offhand since the Pilot Mountain kerfluffle, but I haven't had personal time to go out until, well, now.

My best bets are this upcoming Friday and Saturday, but I'm not used to this time of year... I'm gonna either need rain gear at the ready, or be able to bail to shelter on a moment's notice. There's one place I know of perfect for that, Hanging Rock Lake Park. I also wanna know more about a place around the upper west side of Winston called "The West End". It's hilly, with lots of tiny shops and eclectic buildings.

Either-or will do, not too picky, but I am more partial to the woods.

That'll be a good intro back into things, and since I made this post, I've retroactively kicked my own ass into gear by having to hold myself to my own word now instead of "maaaaaybe I'll go, maaaaaybe I won't, maaaaaaybe I'll go back to sleep" lol.

This is how my motivation works.

Now I have to go, because I said I would.

Ain't no taker-backer.

So it's on record, trans rights are human rights. All humans deserve human rights.

There are no qualifications necessary beyond being sentient, genetically homo-sapien, and having a pulse.

Human? Okay, you get rights.

Everyone experiences loss, gain, expectation, fear, and joy and anyone can experience abuse. There is no separation between you and others besides space and mindset, and no one deserves abuse or misfortune just because someone else can't agree on a gender classification.

I'm in the body I agree with, but I couldn't imagine being so bullheaded that I demanded everyone else walk the line they were born with for my sake. Who is anyone to demand their personal preferences on anyone else? Who is anyone to tell anyone else how to live at all? As things go, this is the most anti-me thing there can be! Imagine if everyone was 100% who they are 100% of the time, no closets and no doors. What a colorful and truthful world we'd have.

One of the major flaws of humans -to me, is that we hide things as trivial as eating a piece of candy and as major as how we view ourselves. Admitting and owning yourself isn't just right, it's truth, and you should never deny truth.
