Dead Horse Interchange

It's finally happened.

I have a trans co-worker. Man in a women's pantsuit. Late 30s, early 40s. Likes hoop earrings and pink accessories (pink phone case, pink purse, pink watch). His femme name is a color and that's all I'll reveal about that.. He doesn't pass as a woman AT ALL, but he is thin and not bald. Probably works out. Seems nice so far. Is into sports and likes to break the ice with baseball talk. I'm not into sports at all so he's manlier than me, I guess.

I'm completely avoiding pronouns when referring to them because I'm not ready to do that with a straight face yet, but most of my co-workers fell into it instantly with the "she" and "her".

Time for the custom "you'll never be a woman" mug I guess

Whatever you do, do not make direct eye contact or mention the "Wizard IP".

I'm still lucky that the only LGBTBBQ co-worker I've ever had is a lesbian and she's pretty much a very good professional, pretty easy to work with and a zero drama person.

Only transfag I ever came close to working with was a fat, balding, middle-aged delivery truck driver. One day the guy just started wearing lipstick and earrings.

I still see him driving around every now and then. Got one of those name license plates in the window with a woman's name and the Iveco logo of the truck is in rainbow colours.
He doesn't pass for shit. Looks like a fat brick layer with a blonde perm.

I've never really interacted with him besides saying hello and signing the papers.

He can always work in Germanys weirdly populous porn scene.

Maybe when he's older he can do granny tranny porn. The German porn scene is nothing short of revolting.

My favourite shitpost is the time Paul Darrow wrote three sequels to his sci-fi show, and they involved him fucking Chinese women, killing actual real life Nazis and blowing up tanks with nitroglycerine rocket launchers.

No ghostwriters or anything. He wrote them because he knew that as he was the series lead, people would publish it. He gave zero fucks. I love him.

I didn't even mention how stuff drops in space, the Wars of Uranus are a major plot point and he has no idea what the difference between the galaxy and the solar system is

He sure isn't the first to write about something without knowing a thing or two about the thing he's writing about.
