pov: she is taking you... somewhere
growing up as a cis girl the patriarchy told me “you’re a girl because of the way you were born, there is nothing you can do about this, you have no say in your gender” and i hated being a girl because it wasn’t my choice it was a prison and the trans community told me “you’re a girl because you say so, your view of yourself is the most important thing, if you change your mind that would be ok” and it made me proud to be a girl and feel empowered in my gender and i wasn’t trapped anymore and then terfs come along and tell me “you’re a girl because of the way you were born, there is nothing you can do about this, you have no say in your gender (but like in a woke way)” and they somehow expect me to be on their side?
if you respond with some terf shit im blocking you lmao
I’m so happy someone wrote this because I feel the same was as a cis girl. I felt pressured to be feminine and went full nlog because I felt too ugly and fat to be “feminine” and I was in an academic setting where it’s a nono. Then the trans community was so proud of their femininity it made me feel gratitude for being born a woman. Trans youtubers empowered me to buy my first skirts and dresses and I no longer felt “stupid” for doing it. I took another colleague that felt “stupid” for being feminine dress-shopping once and we’ve been friends ever since and she now dresses up all the time and tries to feel cute and feminine and I’m so happy to see her like that. The trans community destigmatized being feminine for cis women more than any girlboss feminism I’ve seen and we owe it to trans women.
A trans woman was the one to make me realize I was a trans man. I’d always thought all girls hated being girls, that being born female was a terrible curse we all just had to endure. And then I met a trans women who was so, so fucking excited to be able to wear skirts and cute tops and makeup at last, after years of fighting for the right to get on HRT. I saw the pure joy she felt as she did a little twirl in a skirt and I realised being female isn’t bad. It’s not bad at all. I’m just not female. And I can experience that joy, too. And then I got my HRT and my voice dropped and I got hairy and I learned what it was to be happy with your gender. It took seeing a joyful trans woman twirling in a skirt for that to happen for me.
Thank you trans women.
[ID: A comic of a little kid pretending to be asleep. The kid and their parents are draw as stylized teddy bears. The comic begins with a wide view of the freeway as the lights reflect off the pavement and shine through the dark. In the car, the child is pretending to be asleep against the window. The parent says off-panel "We're home!" "Aww, you sleepin?" says the parent as they pick them up from the car seat. Carrying them upstairs, the parent gives them a little kiss on the head and says "Goodnight, love."
Everyone's got that mutual who can't get out of the maze

Classic comment homie!!! Theres no way out 🤣❤🔥
imagine, a non-acidic gelatinous cube. its ooze is like that oxygenated fluid mice can breathe. organisms inside it bob peacefully, harmlessly, inhaling oxygen-rich slime. the cube, in turn, absorbs respiratory byproducts that nourish it. it adjusts its atmosphere to soothe and pacify occupants and intuitively ejects unwilling ones. found in dungeons inhospitable to other life, like passages filled with poison gas, it seeks out adventurers to ferry across those areas, offering a mutually beneficial exchange of sustenance.

why do i end up sitting straight up in my sleep. ignore how many blankets I use.
Bestie it is impossible to ignore the amount of blankets you use at first I assumed this was a meme and those were the layers of the crust of the earth
I actually have 4 more blankets I sometimes add but I didn't want to make my blanket number look excessive
Are you okay
The results are inconclusive on that.
Bestie. the reason you end up sitting up is your lungs think you are being crushed.
Any attempt to draw a rigid line around and between LGBTQ+ identities will ultimately fail. Lesbians can have complex relationships with gender that include androgyny or masculinity. The line between lesbian and bisexual/otherwise mspec or gay and bisexual/otherwise mspec can get blurred and some people find their home in the grey area. There are asexual people who have sex and aromantic people who date and attraction that isn't quite platonic or romantic. Different mspec labels overlap and that's okay. There are men who are women and women who are men and you can't quite separate the two. People who exist right between feminine man and trans woman, or masculine woman and trans man. Queerness is messy and that's what makes it beautiful, so why try to draw lines when we could let the colors bleed into one another?
