"Trans people always knew they were trans." I literally thought my tits were too ginormous for me to be anything but a woman. When I had a reduction for my health in 2019 I had a whole-ass identity crisis. The eggshell can be as flimsy as it is opaque.

Completely insane. AltNPS claimed to know the name of Alex Pretti's killer, refused to say it because "the truth always comes out," and then just deleted the post. A man was executed on the street in my hometown, and AltNPS is using that as an excuse to vaguepost for attention.

Alt National Park Service: ICE agent identified that murdered Alex Pretti.

Alt National Park Service: We will not share it here, but the truth always comes out.

Consider the following before adopting a Manticore for your family

A Manticore with the caption "I am not a toy. I am not a pet. I am not a Christmas present. I am a 400 year commitment."

Gayle spent a lot of time in bed letting her weight press into the mattress. The blankets were piled on top of her in a heap of warmth that was never as comforting as she needed it to be.

Gender is a spectrum and education is the prism. Education happens at home, in school, in art, in books, in society. They want to destroy the prism so we can only see one color of light.

Reposting because the original draft of this was inspired by the terror of being alone in my Milwaukee apartment and hearing 30 minutes of jets overhead, not realizing that they were practicing for the air and water show downtown. This week, of all weeks, I've been hearing them again.

My sister just told me that before my grandma was cremated, the cremation people put her hair in a little baggie to return to our family. And my sister just looked at me and said "if anybody wanted it, I knew it would be you." I mean she's right but idk how to feel about that.

Do you want to to (1) actively resist fascism, (2) signal your resistance to fascism, (3) show solidarity with people being targeted by fascism? Wear a mask. A mask shows your willingness to not comply, your opposition to the eugenics agenda, and you're making spaces safer for vulnerable folks.

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

At one point I was very worried that being on T would take away my ability to cry but I'm happy to report that I'm nearly a year in and started crying in the middle of making bereakfast because I thought about the first episode of Anohana a little too hard.

My sister read and early version of my WIP, and (for reasons even SHE couldn't explain) she *hated* a character I had been intentionally trying to make very likable. Anyway now any time that character is in a scene it is my mission to make her just a little more annoying.

Some people are asking what's the point, it's such a small thing Exactly. America failed the solidarity test in 2020 when masking and distancing, very easy to do, yet apparently too much inconvenience to save lives. Economic blackout is small, easy, it's baby steps resistance.

If we accept that people are naturally too silly to even watch TV that leads to the great idea of letting Strong Men Who Know Better determine everything.

whenever my cat complains about me not feeding him more than three times a day I have developed a habit of showing him great works of art that depict suffering (The Pieta, The Rape of Lucretia, The Fall of Nineveh) and explain in detail how his own pain greatly exceeds that depicted
