Back in high school, before I even knew I wasn’t straight, I always found myself fond of those somewhat overweight super gay trans people with the dyed hair. They always had the best sense of humor and no judgement! I felt as if they understood me and I could really be myself with them! They were always my kind of people!

In highschool, I ended up in a friend group with 3 of them! We’re all short and stubby and laughing at the stupidest things. One of my favorite quotes by one: “Yellow can be a verb is you believe hard enough!” They were talking about sign language. I shared most of my classes with 2 of these friends and the third I met in middle school. The two of us became friends when I was making jokes about “the dark side” after half of the power in the art room went out. I introduced him to the rest of my friends and in high school we grew closer.

Sadly, I haven’t had the chance to talk to them. One of them ended up becoming kind of a jerk after going into governer’s school. One dropped out our junior year and the other one ended up moving after our freshman year. I still talk to the last two from time to time and really hope to see them again at some point! I miss them.

I also ended up meeting another one in college. Art class again! We’re all artists in one way or another, actually! They were actually fluid and one of the few friends I had in college (the one year I went). I hadn’t talked to them much after I flunked out, though, but I still miss them! They were a cool person!

I do have a few trans friends on discord and we even record a few episodes together! I just love artistic chaotic people and for some reason my trans dudes are it! They’re one of the few people who can actually match or even top my energy!
