      ICYMI, I recently wrote about being misgendered, getting older, loneliness, and the novel The Goldfinch.https://agameofme.tumblr.com/post/187993344992/living-in-grievance-living-in-gratitude …

      And ICYMI, I also recently wrote about revisiting The Matrix 20 years later as a queer trans woman, the power stories have over us, and different kinds of liberation.https://medium.com/@carolynpetit/the-pain-of-waking-the-matrix-at-20-the-stories-we-tell-ourselves-and-my-journey-of-the-self-6f8dcb0811e1 …

      Obviously I'm deeply concerned with social and emotional isolation, and with the ways that things like being trans can contribute to such isolation. However, I also know that narratives, including the narratives we tell ourselves, can shape our sense of what's possible.

          So there is an impulse at work here, particularly in the piece on The Matrix, to take this particular kind of piece, one I've written many times, as far as it can go, to break it, to force myself to write other kinds of stories. I don't know if it'll work, but it was time to try.

          I also touch briefly on Link's Awakening in my Matrix piece, for all you video game nerds. https://medium.com/@carolynpetit/the-pain-of-waking-the-matrix-at-20-the-stories-we-tell-ourselves-and-my-journey-of-the-self-6f8dcb0811e1 …pic.twitter.com/5WqwHT4ErJ
