I am so much more and also none of that, in my own way. I take some time here to write about womxnhood and encourage everyone to actively challenge how we perceive it.

It’s been an incredible journey getting to know the trans womxn I am and coming to terms with how I want to live my life from this point forward. https://ritualdust.com/about/hardware/ Sun, 13 Jun 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://ritualdust.com/about/hardware/ A summary of the hardware tools I use for creating images, sounds and websites.
