If it makes you feel better, someone once mistook me for the mother of my two friends that are the same age as me. I was 18 πŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒ

The "my bindle" part is what got me. Hopping a ride on the next train out of town are we?

(For anyone not up on their tramp slang, a "bindle" [or bindlesack] is the cloth bag on the end of a stick or bamboo fishing pole that you see in a lot of Depression-era movies, animation and newspaper cartoons.)

I'm 38 and my partner is 45; she gets asked fairly regularly if I'm her daughter.... HRT is wild, LOL.

Mood 🀣. You'd think my solid smattering of gray hairs would help, but nope the casual t-shirts and masc leaning agender vibes plus afab babyface makes folks perpetually think I'm in college, and sometimes even highschool. (I think my height is the main thing keeping me from being pegged as even younger.) Hair stylist are always like "so where do you go to school?" I'm 30! I graduated 7-8 years ago, chronologically I'm a grown ass adult.

This is so funny. I’m 31 as well and people always say I look younger than I am. Someone told me I look no more than 16 recently. I thought that testosterone made me look older but I guess not to other people.

I’m so happy you’re doing tours for Nimona it’s such an incredible movie. I remember seeing you were in nyc recently, I wish I could have seen you when you were.

Hi ND! Question I’d love for you to answer, if you’re comfortable. Have you felt a relationship between your bipolar and your bigender identity? I’m also bipolar and bigender and have found that different mood states can influence my relationship with gender (e.g. depression is often associated with feeling more feminine), but also have wondered if my gender fluidity and fluxing moods are energetically linked such that I’m just a generally dynamic person. Neurodivergence and queerness can often be associated; usually Autism and ADHD are mentioned in regards to this relationship, but I wonder it’s true for bipolar too for some people. What are your thoughts on this?

I'm not even trans and this happens to me. The inspector was refusing to sign my passport unless I gave my minor certificate...it went uptil the point my dad had to come in and tell them I'm an adult 😭

Ha, that’s amazing! :) Honestly, it’s something to be proud of…

Also: heard you’re in my city for a showing of the Nimona movie this weekend! But it’s a families screening only, no adults without accompanying kids. Hmm, where can I steal a child… or someone who looks suitably childlike… :)

Oh, I *wish* someone would do the "You're younger than you look!" thing to me again! (I once got mistaken [before I started greying at the temples] for being in my 30s when I was actually in my early 50s.)

This is too true. For the first time in a decade, I got, "Hi, are your parents home?" when I answered the door last week πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

In response to "gee willikers": I say "what the Dickens" on a regular basis xD
