Eliott! (formerly racheez) @itsonlythee@cybre.space

I turned 30 on the 9th and drew this for the occasion. #creativetoots #birthday

Hello! I finally changed accounts (used to be racheez on here).

I got my legal name change last week and I've rebranded all my art socials to Opalescent Eel.

good news, one of our favorite local restaurants is still around and delicious as always (and they gave us free corn chowder :D)
Viv got a bit emotional when she realized how relieved she was about that

oh yeah, when I did come out to my mom, she was focused on how my "name was a gift" and how personally offended she felt that I was rejecting it, but like... it doesn't fit me anymore. you can outgrow things, sorry you're offended. "you'll always be deadname to me" fuck off

the upside I guess is that my dad has been nothing but supportive of both of us, but he's always been the more open-minded of the two of them, and had queer friends when I was growing up

jokes on her though, I submitted the amendment paperwork for my birth certificate last night AND I requested the nonbinary gender marker. I didn't even tell her about this because it's not like I had the chance to around her invalidating my identity.

I was just trying to get my SSN updated so I could do my rebrand properly and get name updated for taxes, and just basically try to take care of everything as soon as I could. I saw how uncomfortable Viv was seeing a mix of deadname and chosen name on mail and I didn't wanna get to that point myself.
