Okay I just need everyone to know that there are 3 wildly different years that are cited as the Khans year of inception, 2098, 2127 and 2141, and it is immensely frustrating to me that the one most wildly accepted as canon is 2141 which is terrible not only because you can't convince me that the Khans went from Vault Dwellers to Death Hands in less than 20 years (fo1 takes place in 2161 reminder) but its also terrible because its Chris Avellone's shitty Fo2 retcon

idk man i think that if you can read dozens and dozens of trans men talking about how their support systems abandoned them when they started getting too masculine on T or had top surgery or whatever, and queer spaces started treating them like threats or potential predators, and you find these stories going back to the 90s or even earlier, and you read all of that and come away thinking that there’s nothing wrong with how progressive communities treat men, you are just fundamentally beyond help dude. you don’t see us as people

a lot of people are somehow misinterpreting this post as saying that trans women Don't experience alienation or ostracization from queer, feminist, and/or progressive communities, to which i say: i am not responsible for your belief that trans men and trans women have to have entirely separate and opposite experiences. if you think that trans men experiencing something implies that trans women can't experience it, that's on you! you might want to sit and have a think about how you see the world and whether or not you're buying into the (deeply patriarchal!) idea that men and women are entirely separate from each other. you might learn something.

"feminine urge" "she/they coded" "girl [thing]" the way social media commodifies and memefies gender roles these days is so fucking weird dude.

like idk maybe we should be doing more to break the notion of separating behaviour by gender instead of reinforcing it but with quirky language

like i understand that sometimes people use these memes ironically and that's fine, but there's certainly a pattern developing and a lot of people use these memes a lot more earnestly than you'd think

Thank you lesbians thank you butches thank you femmes thank you transmasc lesbians thank you transfem lesbians thank you non binary lesbians thank you to all the dykes of the world

David Cronenberg has all these movies about the exchange between the flesh, the psyche, and technology; which all function intensely well as queer metaphors and trans stories, and he seems to be this most ordinary cisgender guy who in a quiet and uncomplicated way just instinctively gets it, and that just fascinates me. Simultaneously only minimally aware of our lives, yet still says beautiful things like "This is an artist giving their all to their art."

working as a writer on star wars related stuff after george lucas had to be hilarious because you've got this incredibly serious edgy character you wrote and suddenly george is like "pick between these two names: Darth Perverse or Darth Enormous"

As my brother, a big SW fan, has told me, the names are part of the identity.
