Started sending job applications. It's kind of hard to figure out what I'm good at, especially since it's almost impossible to find local golang programming jobs, and the tech job market is kinda weird right now. And then theres the whole "being visibly trans at a new workplace"-set of worries! Would also be nice if they could reply to my applications.

Got my legal name/gender marker change approved. Now I need to wait for papers before requesting changes to more papers but at least I'm making progress.

The last gate to coming out at work has now opened, and that means I stop using the masc voice and deadname starting this week! I am so looking forward to that!

In other news, I have spent a lot of time lately helping people having panic attacks (and needed that help, myself, once). Mental health is a struggle that doesn't just disappear. Check on those you care about, because they may be suffering in silence.
