I missed Ozma's birthday but it's never too late to celebrate the great trans princess of Oz.

It’s a female-coded trait, and it’s like the flip side of self-confidence, which is considered positive in men. What’s wrong with thinking you’re great? Nothing, I say! It’s only ever bad if you use it to make someone else feel worse. And thank you, I have a good hat collection!

There was a rumor that Billy Corgan was the pudgy kid from the sitcom “Small Wonder” that I was told in seriousness by at least two people.

There are TONS ABOUT MJ. That he took estrogen or had had orchiectomy to keep his voice high (trans woman know that wouldn’t work). That he’d had his facial hair removed, then had pubic hair transplanted into his face. I dunno why we needed rumors about him, considering the stuff that was TRUE

Described myself to the cashier at the dispensary as “basically an elderly child” (she had called attention to my Oz and Moomin tattoos and my Lion King purse).

I choose to view her that way, as do many trans people! Princess Ozma was turned into a boy as a baby, to hide her from Glinda, and was only changed back to her true gender some years later.

Don't let his lies scare you out of sharing the details of Project 2025 with everyone you know — especially those who are on the fence about their vote this year.
There's good reason to believe knowing about Project 2025 focuses people's minds on the stakes.

Dorothy’s not in the book at all, and they reassigned a lot of Tip’s story to her. But also, it’s got elements of other books, too; it heavily borrows both characters and plot from the book “Ozma of Oz.” So it’s Ozma’s first TWO stories, almost entirely without her. I think she got did dirty there.

My problem with it isn’t that it’s trimmed down, it’s that it completely strips out the gender thing, which to me was the hook. (This may be different if you’re cis.)

My mom read them all to us when we were children. Many of them are great and none of them are bad, but obviously that one made an impression.

i like having a record player for all the usual cornball music nerd reasons but also because ‘one side of a record’ is a perfect timer. doing all the dishes takes about one side of a record, so does catching up on emails. it’s the ideal amount of time to work OR procrastinate!

I myself have a tattoo of Ozma on my right arm, I own a first edition of the book, and the title of the graphic memoir I’ve been struggling with for years is a reference to it. Long live Ozma!

On this day in 1904, 120 years ago, The Marvelous Land of Oz was published, and gave us Princess Ozma, a hero to trans girls who strive to escape the boy curse to this very day.

Most trans girls do! I’m weird in that I’ve never really cared about boobs. HRT got me to like a B and I was like “sure, that’ll more than do.”

I’ve never done boobs and have no plans to; I did bottom surgery, then a few years later, face and voice.
