Hi I’m Jamie, I’m a 36 year old white Bi guy who lives in the UK. He/Him/They/Them. I blog about lots of stuff.

me: “yeah I dated a guy in high school who came out as gay. it was before i knew i was a boy so needless to say it didn’t work out”

coworker: “damn dude was preordering”

other things this coworker (who is a cis guy) has done/said:

—got confused about why I’d never been a boy scout because he forgot i was trans

—told me he was gonna get top surgery scar tattoos to match me after i get mine

—laughs at all my trans jokes, even if they’re supremely unfunny

—calls me big dog (and him little dog) even though he is about as tall as two of me

— “I can’t believe she would say that transphobic thing to you. In June? Pride month?”

Once I said "My gender is whatever's funniest at the time" and my coworker stops dead in his tracks, turns slowly and says "So are your pronouns honk/honk?" killing me instantly

if I was a serial killing assassin, and I got paid per body and was very successful and wealthy, I would refer to my income stream as "disposable income".

Amazing how every guide on interacting with police, including ones that are explicitly pro-cop, are indistinguishable from guides on how to avoid being attacked by a wild animal.

Don't make any sudden movements, avoid eye contact, stay calm or you WILL die. Wait, what do you mean this is advice for interacting with a human being and not a hungry bear?

"Keep your hands on the steering wheel and don't have anything in them, a police officer might mistake a cellphone for a weapon." Okay, should I also hold my hand out for him to sniff when he approaches so that he knows I'm not a threat?
