  1. when I was a kid I remember there was this "Etiquette for Ladies" TV show that would come on after The Price is Right when I was at my nanny's (my mom's stepmom) house

    my weird little autistic trans girl brain treated that like gospel

    I tried so hard to be a perfect little lady

    and I couldn't figure out why it didn't make my mom happy

    she's always very lady-like, I thought she'd like it

    so I assumed I was just doing it wrong, or not good enough

    I tried even harder, and eventually that "be lady-like" became one of the self-critical voices in my head

    I still feel gross when I do something "unladylike" and it's weird

    Should you ring your bicycle bell

    Do you ring your bicycle bell? When I retuned to cycling, the first thing I did with my new bike is what I did as a kid, I removed the spoke protector, reflector and the bell.

  4. A brief reflection on gratitude and the civility of proper correspondence.

    I have been printing personal cards upon a vintage letterpress -- cotton stock, measured typography, a proper impression in ink. There remains something quietly dignified about paper, weight, and form.

  5. When I was a young girl, gentleman removed their hats when they entered a building. This is etiquette and good manners. Imagine my dismay this evening, at the theater, to have to ask this man, seated in front of me, "to remove his chapeau". So gauche! So ill-mannered! What has happened to us as a nation? #manners #etiquette
