the grind of sexualizing that old man never stops.
there’s a scene in an episode of the 1966 Batman TV series where Adam West watches a woman he met at a dance club die by falling into a nuclear reactor (it’s like the only death on the show) and sadly says “what a way to go-go”, a statement that lives in my head rent free and comes out of my mouth every time someone suggests that an action might kill me
sending love out tonight to everyone who is progressively losing their abilities, whether that's movement, ability to walk, eyesight, or hearing.
it's hard to come to terms with the fact that you can't do things that you used to be able to do. I'll be honest, it feels like you're losing control of your life. it can feel very isolating and hopeless. its scary and overwhelming, and it's so hard to deal with.
you are not less than just because you can do less. im proud of you for still being here, and i wish you ease with adjusting to new ways of life. please take care of yourself, i love you.
gentle addition for the folks who are losing their mental capacity in any way, shape, or form. If you can’t think as clearly as you used to, if you don’t have the executive functioning you once had, if your memory is getting worse, if your sensory processing issues are increasing, if your episodes are becoming more frequent. Your life has inherent value and I hope I can help remind you of that.
Bird outside singing a straight up banger right now. I hope you get mad cloaca dude
So when are we gonna talk about the east asian fetishism problem in white transfem spaces
fucking gutted to be asian and having to be within such close proximity to these spaces
still thinking about when someone on here made a post about "harmless facebook trans girl memes" and I was like "okay but some of these are sexualizing the school gym uniforms of japanese girls, specifically, here is an article talking about how this is a problem, maybe we should be considerate of this" and she blocked me over it immediately (I was being pretty conversational, so it was clear she just. Wasn't interested in having a conversation about this.)
it is wonderful to celebrate being LGBT, but, ultimately, being LGBT is value neutral. It is indicative of oppression, not content of character, and be wary of people who are trying to conflate those two things.
Hope this isn’t derailing but there’s a very similar phenomenon of white transmascs pulling this shit with south asian/west asian/north african aesthetics especially in the realm of video games (gerudo link being the most notorious example) and it’s fucking gross and exhausting. The discussion on gender-affirming orientalism in white trans spaces is long overdue.
I'm seeing an annoying amount of people in the notes going "don't blame this on white trans people specifically; this is a problem all white people have" – and while you're not necessarily wrong, that's not the point. The thing is, by not cracking down on this, you actively make spaces that are supposed to be safe for trans people into unsafe spaces for white people only. We are pointing to our absence in spaces that are supposed to be for us as well, and you responding with "well, this is a problem with white communities in general" does not solve the problem of us not being able to access the same safe spaces and resources that you can. Do better.

Dont @ me but if ur a white content creator u should probably examine your brown characters (especially the darker skinned ones) and see if u aren’t following a certain trend of making them all aggressive, violent, surly or otherwise outwardly angry
white content creators: this was not an opportunity for you to prove how totally woke you are just reblog and go
full offense but if you saw this post or similar ones and immediately thought “let me prove I’m not racist”
then you have severely misunderstood the point and no one cares about your oc of color

Everyone needs a picture of J. G. Hertzler (Martok) holding a gay bat'leth on their dash
Chancellor Martok said gay rights, rb if u agree
The response to "ace people are just virgins who can't get laid!" Shouldn't be "ace people can still have sex!" but instead " being a virgin isn't a bad thing."
The response to "aro people are just heartless freaks!" Shouldn't be "aro people can still feel love!" And instead be "not feeling love or other emotions doesn't make you a bad person."
Instead of pushing the idea that aspec people can be "normal like allos" we should instead be trying to normalize aspec experiences. Yes aspec people can be normal because aspec identities are normal. Some aros fall in love. some aces have sex. but they should not be the only valid aspec experiences. We should not use these experiences to make the aspec identity more palatable to amatonormativity and allos.
u know that factoid that’s like human beings need 3 hugs a day for maintenance and 9 for growth? for me i have to watch this 12 times a day minimum just to survive (by MINDMELD on twitter)
