There's a type of self-harm... self-destruction really that often goes unnoticed, where instead of being loud and visceral with risky behaviors or injurious action, you simply... fold in. take a smaller breath and take up less space as you maintain the illusion of normalcy. You do a little bit more as others do a bit less and don't complain, you have the ability; it would be rude to make a big deal about it. You get less attention, less notice, become... less. A background character that slowly becomes a fixture, something that is only acknowledged when malfunctioning. you want to be helpful, don't you?l

Hey you. Yes you, brazilian transfem person. Are you tired of being a minority in most social groups you ever were in? Are you tired of having to speak in english in order to have a sense of community? Well i have made a discord server for us brazilian transfems. If you are interested in being on it, please dm me. We need to stay together.

Ah fuck lads. I'm writing my sermon for next Sunday's service. And I gotta do at least 54 minutes about John 4:27 which reads, *Just then his disciples returned and were surprised to find him talking with a woman. But no one asked, “What do you want?” or “Why are you talking with her?”* and how it ties what's going on with our current political climate and asking why we're talking to women? Like some kind of woman.

But I'm worried people might think I'm just rehashing my sermon from 4 years ago. When I used the same passage to preach about why wizardry was actually satanic because they walk to women who of course committed the first sin. But I think if I really get into some new descriptions of the lake of fire, I can pull it off. Like a hot summer sidewalk of Lucifers tounge. Send me your prayers. And may the Holy Ghost give you wet dreams

He gives you some special lotion as an offering/courtship because it helps fight of wort wort warts

everyone in halo reactions when i come out to them

master chief: hm. glad you told me, soldier. knowing yourself is important when you’re fighting a complex enemy like the covenant.

cortana: interesting… yes, i see your brain chemistry is a bit… different. i’ll keep this in mind for the future. i can’t wait to explore this further with you!

sergeant johnson: heh, so you’re a girl? well, you won’t get any argument from me. long as you keep watching my back, i’ll watch yours.

dr halsey: you’re transsexual? how could you think of yourself at a time like this? we need to keep our attention on the only thing that matters: saving the human race. additionally, you should be aware that J.K. Rowling is a close personal friend of mine

grunt: huohahaha! send pictures of your gock and gballs to my grunt phone

I'd rather put a gun in my mouth than use "ai" garbage and slop. Fuck your LLMs, fuck your little chat cbt diary. If you can't bother to find the joy in making art, sucks to be you

Possibly the greatest NPR exchange ever recorded

"You're so funny" thanks! I cry when I'm angry.

transfem who gives you a pair of tights as a gift when you start transitioning and you thank her a lot and then she just keeps giving you new pairs and you pretty quickly catch on that she’s got a tights fetish but they’re also really cute so you can’t really complain.

[ravenkane]

ok but no lies at all does a meat & potato pie on a buttered bun not sound fucking delicious as fuck

[girl who would like to take a break from being a person voice] yeah no I'm just a little tired today

[ravenkane]

It's Juneteenth yall. And I'm not letting this day go unmarked.

Black people fight for everybody. We stand in solidarity with women, lgbt people, poor people all over the world of every skin color and background. Every religion and nationality.

Today, stand with us. Be with us. Tell a black person you love them. Hug a black person (with consent). Ask that hot black girl out today. Make a black person smile. Black lives matter to everybody and you matter to us.

Stand with us on Juneteenth like we stand with you all year round, and I hope a happy Pride month continues for all of us

💝

it is simply a known fact that gamer lesbians are more inclined to enjoy forcefem. They're already familiar with pre-ordering and watching a messy gremlin turn into a beautiful woman is basically the plot of most visual novels

It's always been so infuriating when someone asks me if something has been done and I tell them that it hasn't. And five mins later they use an annoyed tone going, "well are you gonna do it?" And I'm just there like, "if you ask me to yes." Or they'll say, "hey do you wanna do this 'thing'?" Or, "you want to take a break?" Instead of just asking me to do a thing or telling me to take a break. Like, putting "do you want to" or "hey you wanna" in what you're asking me to do makes it feel like I have a choice to say no. It's all so passive aggressive and I hate it. But so many people communicate this way and it's baffling

I think a lot of autistic taking-things-literally goes under the radar because what the diagnostic tests and shit ask about is not what that generally looks like in an adult and often not in kids either and much more importantly it’s not what generally actually causes problems in real life instead of being irritating for caretakers or funny to bullies or easy to diagnose

I have absolutely no issues understanding metaphors or idioms. When someone says their heart is on their sleeve they mean they’re emotionally expressive and openly display their feelings, not that they have a chunk of cardiac tissue on their shirt. I very rarely have issues with sarcasm. I sometimes have issues telling when someone who’s said something mean is about to say “just kidding”, but tbh I think that’s more on them than me.

BUT

My grandmother asked me “Do you know when the trash was taken out last?” and I said “I think Eliot took it out yesterday” and a few hours later she yelled at me for “not taking out the trash when I asked you to” and I was like???? You didn’t ask me????

I dread filling out forms and am crap at filling out diagnostic tests or personality quizzes because there are always questions I don’t know the exact answers to (how am I supposed to know what day I got dental surgery seven years ago?) or don’t understand exactly what they’re asking or the wording’s unclear and they could mean this or the wording says this but I’m pretty sure what they actually meant was this and should I answer what they said or what they meant, and how does everyone else just whip through the form when surely they can’t know all the answers either? Does everyone else remember the day they got dental surgery seven years ago?

I get tangled up by bureaucracy because the rules on the website say that for this you need that and for that you need the other and for the other you need something else for which you need the first thing, and I go in circles for hours or days or weeks or months or years because their stated rules say there is no way to get what I need, and when I talk to somebody else they’re like “just call them?” and I’m like “how could that help? the rules say that what I’m trying to do is impossible”

And all of that? That’s how “taking things literally” ACTUALLY affects your life as an adult. It’s not “haha you think ‘getting under your skin’ means parasites”. It’s “you have real difficulty functioning in the world because everyone else is conveying things through implication and assuming that you know that rules are flexible and questions are approximate and you’re supposed to lie on job applications, and you don’t”.

You are the only one who understands

Nono it's okay, squeeze me like your painting the ceiling of a rocket shuttle en route to Mars, and all your crew mates are in cryosleep but the monkey stole your pod and you're tragically suffering from massive isolation that you weren't trained for but it's alright cause Beau Bridges gave you a coin for bravery.

Me going into the DR for Executive dysfunction: "Yeah I need treatment for E.D."

Dr: "Well that's to be expected when starting hormones. How often is the lack of performance occurring?"

Me: "I mean, literally all day every day for as long as I can remember."

Dr: "Oh I see, so this was happening even before transition?"

Me: "Yes."

Dr: "Okay, and you're sure no one is coercing you into doing this right? I mean, most people like you consider this effect to be a good thing."

Me: ".......yes, no one has tried to coerce me to do anything aside from not transition when I came out."

Dr: "Very well, take one of these as needed and if the effects last longer than 4 hours go to the ER."

Me: *takes pill and leaves*

Later that night, me bitching to my gf. "Why does everything have to be so hard?"
