i feel like we need a name for the dynamic of "the author needs to figure out some gender stuff fast because if this work is being made by a cis person its just kinda transphobic" (tbc I hate how this dynamic tends to play out and will always err on the side of "she's working thru things" but yeag)

surreal experience where a coworker who misgendered me a couple times heard me assert my pronouns once and suddenly is a staunch ally correcting other coworkers when they fuck up pretty nice tbh

the problem with self improvement as a woman is that you can be near perfect at a thing and men will nitpick you to death, while they're congratulating each other for not shitting their pants all that much and they have all the fucking power so that is the standard that ends up reinforced

"NO!" "It's kinda like that." "I WANT TO KILL HER." "Of course." "SO I SPENT EIGHT WEEKS BUILDING THE PERFECT SWORD-" "Yeah." "-TO FINALLY END HER MISERABLE EXISTENCE." "So...you spent two months thinking about how best to shove something inside her." "GODDAMNIT SHUT UP."

Tired: you can tell Gwyndolin was trans because she was a son turned into a daughter Wired: you can tell Gwyndolin was trans because she kept vital infrastructure running for a society that hated her while living in her dad's basement and projecting a vision of idealized femininity

I was scared of a lot of things as a child, but the earliest I recall was being absolutely freaked the fuck out by the Goofy movie opening where Max becomes a giant. No clue why, it just freaked out a young me. Wish the answer was more satisfying but that was it.

Mine would be Clock Tower for the SNES, which I played at a frighteningly young age. I still find myself checking behind closed shower curtains to this day Also, I'm sure that stalking and eviscerating schoolgirls in cute skirts had little to no effect on my emotional development

this is such a minor bitch given everything going on, but i do think there's a discussion to be had about trans activism right now taking a very fear-uncertainty-dread approach to try to appeal to allies, but mostly ends up worsening a bunch of trans folks' anxiety instead.

had a dream that communists started building customized portapotties to criticize anarchists. something about the "occupied" label not working as a statement on how you never know what you'll get with anarchy.
