Hi, I’m Emma! If you recognize my avi from Matrix chat rooms, yes I’m that Emma. 😊

Ada and others can verify that I’m legit.

So, long story short:

  • I am lonely

  • I wanna befriend some local trans people here in southeast Louisiana

About me:

  • I started HRT January 2023

  • I have ESP! (Estrogen Spironolactone Progesterone)

  • I’m a Linux nerd

  • I use QubesOS

I’m making this post here, because this is a much bigger audience than the Matrix chat rooms, but I am also nervous.

I know the odds are still against me, but I have to try.

Edit:

DMs between Lemmy and Kbin/Mbin still do not work, so here is my Lemmy account:

    Just be careful and make sure you meet people from online in a public place and let someone know where you are and what you’re doing.

    Lots of awful people out there even on lemmy. Best of luck!

      yes definitely. i wish the world were a nicer and safer place, but alas.

      i’ve met someone from an online datin app before, so i’m not totally in the new here. of course i was still closeted back then, and it’s very different now…but yeah, i know some public places to meet, and i would def make loved ones aware of my location and plans and stuff.

      thank you for looking out for me 😊

    And all who are considering Emma’s request for friendship, she is amazing! And a fantastic person to talk with ❤️

        Matrix has been a home to me as well, hence why I’m responding 3 days late 😅

        But I know you have a friend in me :)
