I went to get a passport the other day. I know I'm a bit late but I think there's just enough time for me to get it back before fat fuck takes office.
The people working at the place were actually nice to me though, usually when I'm at government places the workers get all huffy when they see my documents and notice that I'm trans. Also an old man there noticed my shoes and told me they were cool, so that was also nice. My shoes are pink converse and have trans pride laces on them, idk if he knows what the trans pride colors are though.
I just got my passport and now working on getting my birth certificate and military record changed so I won't be outed when doing paperwork.
Yeah I haven't bothered to update my birth certificate yet since I'd like to also change my legal sex, but it'd be nice to have that. It sucks that the process has to be such a hassle...
(I still have to prove that I'm trans to two therapists. I have no idea what that entails or how long it takes. It just seems like a major annoyance)
