How can you say "love of your life", you're 18 lol

When you know, you know. But it’s okay that you don’t understand that because your opinion has no effect or importance on my relationship, and some people just don’t understand that soulmates aren’t only found in the later years of life. She’s the love of my life, and I’m extremely fortunate and grateful that the universe has led me to her so early.

we're still together and married!!!

[mikiratsula]

YOU KNOW JUST EXACTLY WHO AND WHERE YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO BE ✨🙂‍↕️

[mikiratsula]

Well geez you're just an ugly dike that Hope is going to leave for a beautiful human

I’m so sorry that you’re so unhappy with your own life, and I truly hope you find some genuine happiness soon to ease the pain or darkness in your heart.

Hey buddy we got married btw

[mikiratsula]

Not a question, just wanted to show some appreciation. I started listening to your music in 2016(ish) when I was discovering my sexuality in high school and your songs and covers got me through so much then. I rediscovered your music in 2021 (non-coincidentally around the time that I started questioning my gender identity) and was so excited to see you’d released so much more by then. I LOVED i owe it to myself and could relate to it so much. This new album is beyond amazing. It’s somehow even more relatable and raw. I feel like you’re an artist that has really helped me discover and accept myself. I made a list ‘artists to see live to heal my inner queer kid’ and you were the first one on the list. I got to see you in October and it was life changing. You’re an amazing performer. Thank you so much for doing what you do, being such an icon, and being vulnerable. It’s really helped me through so much ❤️

Made my entire day. Thank you so much friend ❤️

[mikiratsula]

I just fell down a rabbit hole on your blog and I wanted to say I'm incredibly happy for you and Hope!

Thank you!

[mikiratsula]

Remember when u have your uswnt blog? Lol

yes and the way they just won the Olympics makes me so EMOTIONAL ABOUT IT

[mikiratsula]

Hi, just came across an old post of yours (you probably know the one) and I just want to say I love your story. Starting with such a strong statement that rings so true, then exploring yourself further to stand by that while still changing yourself to your desires. It's wonderful! It's amazing to see people like you living so openly, and unashamed.

Keep being you! I hope eventually the weirdos start to leave you alone

❤️❤️❤️

[mikiratsula]

I know you know this but please remember there are so many people who have and will always love you in all of your seasons

I needed to hear this today thank you friend

[mikiratsula]

Someone tell all the horrible anon messages I got in 2016 when me & Hope first here on tumblr, that we are married and are building a beautiful life together ❤️ she loved me then and loves me more now ❤️

[mikiratsula]

Sorry you had to have major invasive surgery and change your whole identity just to keep some wannabe straight girl from leaving you.

wow you sound miserable!

[mikiratsula]

I’m pretty sure I was following both you and hope on here since before you were even dating which is wild, congrats on getting married

thank you <3

[mikiratsula]

Forgot to tell y’all my sophomore album “I’ll be fine if I want to” is out now :)

[mikiratsula]

Why do you respond to these angry responses? Seems futile

Try to use them as a place of education.

[mikiratsula]

I see you getting a lot of unnecessary abuse about your gender journey, and it bothers me. I've been here pretty much from the start of your relationship with Hope (congrats on the wedding btw, you both look amazing and so so happy!!), see the journey you've been on from masc woman to transmasc, seen how happy and comfortable you've become in your own skin, and not only is it so wonderful to see you become yourself so loudly and unapologetically, but you also helped me on my own gender journey. I saw you, saw the rationalising and the confusion, and the epiphanys and beauty of learning to accept yourself for who you are.

Yes, you've changed, you're not the same person that you used to be. Because you're happy, because you're confident, because you're who you were always meant to be in the first place. Good for you Miki, I love that for you. It's a wonderful, beautiful thing to be able to stand up and say "this is who I am and I don't care what you think".

I love your music, your vibe, and the way you've shown me it's okay to be myself and change my mind about how I identify 🩵

~ Sincerely, a recently out transmasc, he/they lesbian 🩵🩵🩵

Sending you all the love and thank you for sending it my way :’) congrats on your journey too!!!

So what the fuck happened to you feeling proud to be a masculine woman? Jesus Christ what an absolute joke. All you people do is conform to stereotypes.

I was navigating a lot of internalized transphobia and felt pressure to satisfy societal norms and suppress myself and my gender identity. You grow throughout life, you learn things about yourself. A post from 6 years ago where I was navigating so much heaviness in my heart yet felt the need to lie to myself and the internet about not being trans to make yall comfortable. How dare you hold my own journey against me. I've always been trans whether yall like it or not.
