very tired of being told it is the responsibility of urban democratic voters never to risk possibly maybe by chance seeming less than respectful of rural red state life and then watching thousands in nebraska cheer on the president joking about a nuclear strike on me and millions of my neighbors

This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.
When I was at one of my lowest (mental) points in life, I couldn't get out of bed some days. I had no energy or motivation and was barely getting by.

I had therapy once per week, and on this particular week I didn't have much to 'bring' to the session. He asked how my week was and I really had nothing to say.

'What are you struggling with?' he asked.

I gestured around me and said 'I dunno man. Life.'

Not satisfied with my answer, he said 'No, what exactly are you worried about right now? What feels overwhelming? When you go home after this session, what issue will be staring at you?'

I knew the answer, but it was so ridiculous that I didn't want to say it. I wanted to have something more substantial.
Something more profound.

But I didn't.

So I told him, 'Honestly? The dishes. It's stupid, I know, but the more I look at them the more I CAN'T do them because I'll have to scrub them before I put them in the dishwasher, because the dishwasher sucks, and I just can't stand and scrub the dishes.'

I felt like an idiot even saying it.

What kind of grown ass woman is undone by a stack of dishes? There are people out there with *actual* problems, and I'm whining to my therapist about dishes?

But he nodded in understanding and then said:

'RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE.'I began to tell him that you're not supposed to, but he stopped me.

'Why the hell aren't you supposed to? If you don't want to scrub the dishes and your dishwasher sucks, run it twice. Run it three times, who cares?! Rules do not exist.'

It blew my mind in a way that I don't think I can properly express.

That day, I went home and tossed my smelly dishes haphazardly into the dishwasher and ran it three times.

I felt like I had conquered a dragon.

The next day, I took a shower lying down.

A few days later. I folded my laundry and put them wherever the fuck they fit.

There were no longer arbitrary rules I had to follow, and it gave me the freedom to make accomplishments again.

Now that I'm in a healthier place, I rinse off my dishes and put them in the dishwasher properly. I shower standing up. I sort my laundry.

But at a time when living was a struggle instead of a blessing, I learned an incredibly important lesson:

THERE ARE NO RULES. RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE!!!"

See I think sports betting is bad when it involves money. I think sports betting is good when it involves ill-advised, perhaps slightly inebriated sexual favors between friends.

Here, the Fool passes from the Unknown into the Unknown

- Helper (who always lies)
- Old man (mistaken for wise)
- Seductions and Temptations
- Helper (who also always lies)
- CONFUSION - Hall of Mirrors - confrontation with the self
- Stumbling through the thorns
- The Unforgivable Misunderstanding
Passing from the Unknown back into the Unknown
- (Rejection of the Goddess)
- Coming home before he's supposed to

In my personal life I have moved away from thinking of people as stupid. Instead I just think of people as "incurious," where the Doing of learning has become something they are too tired, scared, or proud to pursue. Curiosity is, I think, the greatest human virtue, the Doing of learning.

I can’t begin to describe what it’s like to try and get thru my day, professionally and personally, while also having to pay attention to constant anti-trans rhetoric in the news because the Trump administration is actively trying to criminalize my existence. Just…add that stress on to everything.

so apparently the slang term for estradiol in china is "Debian install media" as the most common brand has a spiral on the box resembling the Debian logo
a pink and white box labeled PROGYNOVA with a spiral on the box art, of a prescription HRT.  Next to it is a debian box with very similar art (which is probably a mockup as a joke, or a way to camouflage the box for stealth purposes, as HRT is probably illegal in china)

Yknow when they position trans rights as in conflict with other rights it really is just that it is seen as an indignity to have to exist in society with us and therefore a rights infringement. Its our right to exist they see in conflict with their right to not have to be around a tranny

Says a lot about how ingrained transphobia is in cishets that you can convince em of implementing systematic trans exclusion by going “yeah but what if a tranny beat you at a game”

the most important part about being a trans woman is internalizing the fact that your existence is a gift to the world, your presence is a blessing on those around you, and you will become perfect at anything you set out to do.

It rules being a tranny because you tune into the news on a random day and find yourself confronted with some new story like "New budget specifically says 'we wont cover healthcare for trannies. specifically those people'" and then i have to go back to work like everything is normal for 8 hours
