for us to have our inner world bodies in the outer world so we can seize control over a country of our own somewhere while Winter ends every trace of the United States and Israel governments, militaries and police forces

it's so Weird how ppl STILL make fun of the idea of alcohol-free queer spaces just because an asexual teenager suggested it in 2015. it was odd then and it's odd now. Why are you mad at the idea of a coffee shop for queer people. don't answer that i do not gaf

One of the craziest things I’ve seen come out of these discussions was that period of time where transandrophobes were insistent that the only comprehensible interpretation of Steven Universe was that Steven is a transfem egg and you’re a transmisogynist for saying otherwise. Like. I’m not even going to say obviously that you’re not allowed to have that headcanon but. Steven Universe. You know, the show where the male main character gets deadnamed (literally, Rose is dead), misgendered, forcefully feminized by family and has to say over and over again that he is not the person they want him to be. That people are crazy for interpreting this as a transmasculine allegory. Okay.

So you are telling me, according to the San Antonio Police Department, its not a hate crime when you:

- threaten to burn a gay couple’s house down for two years and openly calling them slurs

- actually do burn down the house

- kill their dog and place it’s skull and harness on top of the couple’s mailbox for them to see

- shoot and kill one of them while they are crying over seeing their murdered dog’s remains while you are also calling them homophobic slurs

During both Pride and Indigenous History Month nonetheless.

Rest In Peace Jonathan Joss.

i love them all so much

sending love to other plurals with lots of members, with very big systems. very big systems. big enough that your headcount all too often gets relegated to a "+" instead of a range, that polls about types of headmates someone might have always underestimate just how many, who constantly get told "wow, that must be chaotic, lol"--even by other plural folks who get told the same by singlets, without having ever given information about your system or how you work beyond your headcount. or "wow, we could never handle that many headmates!" or "that must be so overwhelming, huh?" or "bet you can't ever get anything done haha".

you are wonderful. no matter what your goals are (downsizing to a smaller number, staying the same, or gaining more headmates), you deserve support and understanding. no matter your origins, no matter the reason for your size, you still deserve support and understanding. you're not lying or exaggerating. you're good as you are, and you will be good no matter how you will be in the future.

Any trans man: Hey, can we not call reproductive health issues dealing with abortion & pregnancy "women's issues"? I can also get pregnant and in some ways an unwanted pregnancy can even be a significantly higher risk for me as a trans man. It's transphobic to say that men aren't affected by oppressive reproductive health laws, because you are actively excluding trans men from a conversation that very much needs to include them.

Some cis woman coming in to erase me: I'm not transphobic! I think trans women are women and when I talk about ~☆women's issues☆~ I'm including them!

Trans man: But you're excluding me! A man who is clearly more affected by unwanted pregnancy and abortion bans than probably any trans woman on the planet.

Cis woman: Well you shouldn't have become a man if you didn't want me to treat you like a man! Besides, I was *clearly* talking about cis men when I said "men," and you're obviously included when I say "women's reproductive health." Anyway, all men need to shut up about abortion and get vasectomies! I'm a feminist!

... Many such cases, unfortunately. It's absolutely rancid when a cis woman thinks the beginning and end of trans allyship is "trans women are women." Like, yes. Absolutely, and please keep being inclusive of trans women, but don't stop there. Give a fuck about other trans people too. Listen when trans men & transmascs have a unique perspective on cis-centric feminism, because you might realize that there's a whole facet of gender essentialism (transphobia) you're hanging onto. And if we're really lucky, you might realize that a failure to show up for trans men is a failure to show up for all trans people, including trans women.

people are clowning on this guy on reddit but uhhh let's pause for a minute and ask...so what happens if someone has a skin condition? what if part of their face has been burned? what if they're missing their eyes? and so what if they just have a fuckton of tattoos? recognition algorithms are aligned with the most ""average"" / ""normal"" features which means any deviation gets denied access to shit we didnt need age verification for 1 year ago. i dont care if it's a choice versus not, dont care if it's accessing porn or wikipedia, this needs to stop

i feel like so many people misunderstand redemption arcs. they’re not about forgiving past actions. they’re not about softening previous behavior. redemption arcs are about realizing past behavior was heinous and resolving to be better, do better. that’s why so many redemption arcs fall apart upon close scrutiny.

Headmates that would get us fakeclaimed and why

all of them because fakeclaimers do not have any standards and they only fakeclaim to be assholes because they like to prey on systems for fun and have no real concrete basis on what to fakeclaim a system for

you aren't hurting people by being your true authentic self.

please be yourself, your plural self, no matter what.

life is so much better with you around, with your plurality being known.
