movie night!
I’m at the Hollywood for a couple movies - two John Woo flicks, The Killer and Hard Boiled. John Woo’s stuff has always been a blind spot for me, so I’m excited to get these both under my belt on the big screen.
This place is so great, I love volunteering here. Free movies, infinite snacks and bevs, and the camaraderie can’t be beat. This is definitely somewhere I look forward to coming out, because I know everyone will back me the fuck up. I am still getting used to thinking of myself as a woman! I keep doing silly stuff like referring to myself as a guy. I figure it’ll get more straightforward the more I do things like present as a woman in public. Much of my “masculine” presentation has simply been from not challenging the default perception of myself - big, hairy, and casually disheveled tends to do that.
I was listening to an episode of SRSLY WRONG earlier, my dearly beloved podcast. It keeps helping me to remember about the wonderful non-traditional library projects I’m aware of in Portland. The tool libraries are the obvious ones, but finding out about the kayak library was so fucking exciting and I’m looking forward to that for next year. I feel like there’s got to be more out there that I’m missing. Besides that, I would love to see a city or county grant program for these kinds of orgs, god knows how far $5k would go for something like them.
