i’m TRYINGGG to grow out my hair again but when i had long hair as a kid i was CHRONICALLY bad at brushing it. by the time i got into late elementary-early middle school (before i got it cut) i literally just put it in a braid, ponytail or bun 24/7 because it got less tangled that way and also i never fucking knew how to style it . at no point was i comfortable with having long hair but i’m not even gonna attribute that to being a tranny, i blame that on having painfully straight boring ass flat ass unstyled bad hair until 8th grade. and then it was a different bad hair cut except then it was just shorter . i didn’t start looking like a human person until halfway through my freshman year fr

#it has more volume consistently now #i’ve heard that sometimes testosterone does that??#my roommate used to have literally straight hair and now it’s fully curly #bc of T #so anyway #i need to get a fucking brush bc combs cannot handle #the way that my hair knots and mats is so bad

can we stop pretending like it’s so super easy for trans men to pass. “oh just put on a baggy shirt and cut your hair-“ it literally doesn’t work like that and I refuse to believe you actually think it’s that easy

#I do as much as I can pre t and I still get misgendered constantly #it’s to be expected and I understand #but I wish people would stop making it out like it’s so easy to pass #bc it’s not!#and when you talk about how easy it is it a) makes people feel like they must not be trying hard enough and that’s why they don’t pass #and b) undermines the difficulties experienced by trans men #trans #lgbtq #ftm #trans man #transgender #transmasc #transgender man #trans pride #donnieisaprettyboy #ftm problems

Honestly, I am pretty frustrated by the "haha why would anyone hate ace people" responses to Rowling's tweet.

Don't get me wrong, the support is nice. But if you want to be an ally, you have to do so on our terms, not yours. And that means actually engaging with the aspec community, not just posting positivity every now and again. And what those responses highlight to me is what I've known for a while; you guys only support aspec people when it's easy and convenient.

It's easy to support aspec people when it's J.K. Rowling being awful again. It's easy to support us when it's just reblogging an "aspec people are queer" post.

But what about when we are talking about amatonormativity and the relationship hierarchy? When we are discussing the enforcement of compulsory sexuality? When we are pushing for greater awareness and support for aspec identities that are not asexuality or aromanticism? When we are criticizing terminology that you use but harms us? Because I can tell you right now, I rarely see allo people engage with those posts.

Why do people hate asexuality (or any other aspec identity)? Because it challenges the societal norms that benefit them. And that is uncomfortable and scary. So they turn to hate and oppression in order to assure that the changes we push by just openly existing never happen.

That means that to be a good aspec ally, you can't just make a positivity post every now and again, and you can't just laugh about how stupid aphobes are. You have to openly challenge the societal norms that harm us, even if they benefit you. Including but not limited to:

The idea that romantic and sexual attraction is the default state of being (amatonormativity)

The idea that a romantic, sexual relationship completes a person

People in marriages receiving special privileges and benefits

The idea that platonic, familial, etc. attraction are default states of being

The idea that not feeling some form of attraction must be compensated for through another form of attraction

The idea that love (not just romantic) is inherently morally good, while not feeling love is inherently a moral failing

The idea that any one form of relationship is inherently more important or deeper than any other (relationship hierarchy)

The idea that any one thing makes someone human

The idea that not having sex is shameful or infantile

The idea that having sex without romantic love is callous

Gendered divides of sexual and romantic attraction

Other aspec people please feel free to add on/challenge any of this. Allo (not aspec) people please feel free to ask questions.

Ooough I just know op is gonna take Meg to everyone else and elita is gonna be pissed while bee is just OMG HIIII ITS SO NICE TO SEE YOU!!! Bc that's his friend even if he is evil

That’s one of his first ever friends, of course he’s happy to see him!! Continuing from this comic.

#transformers one #maccadam #megatron #d-16 #optimus prime #tf one #bumblebee #b-127 #Elita-one #jazz is there too but I don’t know much about him #like I’m sure bee is also working along side some of the bots he was almost killing right #what’s a little bloodshed between friends #he’s never had friends so this is his status quo #Elita would gut him right there is op wasn’t around #the autobots know about op’s fading memories so they would tiptoe around the topic of d-16 probably #megs doesn’t know what’s going on but if op doesn’t remember him then maybe he can manipulate him into getting information and maybe a t-cog #then oh no there’s literally everyone who would recognize him as d-16 in this room so much for that plan #he tells op his name is m-16 bc he can’t make up shit to save his life

The 1st time I watched all of tos Turnabout Intruder was my favorite episode. Despite the pretty intense sexism and crazy shatner acting, I just find the idea really compelling.

#also i lov that its an episode that calls out spock and jims special relationship and bc jim is a woman at the time leonard nemoy is #touching the actress in ways he would not touch shatner so it makes their relationship come off as more intimate than usual #and again the sexism is really bad but bc the writing is kinda deeply flawed its only more compelling to me. like the ending is kinda dark #and weird bc they kinda put Janice's hysteria on her being a woman rather than being a damaged person. so in the end she confims #that she is unfit for command. is physical overpowered by a man. treated like and child. ans sent off to some mental hospital for care #while the men in power on the enterprise shake their heads and say. if only she could have been satisfied in her womans body. without #addressing how its pretty fucked that woman cant b starfleet captains. like. thats a pretty unsettling and weird ending. it makes me feel #bad and thats why i like it so much. but im a freak like that so idk #star trek #tos #spirk #spock #james t kirk #also. i shoulf have spent more time making this look nice but i fucked upbthe colors #but i dont wanna redraw again. i cant get the proses right #poses look weird

Lifespans.

(ID under cut)

[Image ID: A three-way venn diagram floating against a starfield. The circles are coloured; one yellow, one light blue, one a darker shade of blue. The yellow is the smallest, the two blue ones over double its size, with the darker blue the biggest. The yellow is half covered by the two blue circles, while it takes up a small amount of the two blues. The centre overlap between all three is labelled "the precious few years we three were together".

There is very little overlap between the yellow and the darker blue without the lighter blue.

The work is signed 'aerialworms'./End ID]

#star trek #mcspirk #star trek fanart #star trek the original series #leonard mccoy #james t kirk #spock #i drew this after that short film came out last year #I don't usually acknowledge ge nerations for my own sanity but it got me thinking about how jim only knew spock for 25 years before he die #bones for 35ish #less than half his life. and then they just had to live on without him #spirk #mckirk #spones #bones and spock knew each other for far longer together than they were with jim #but they came together because of him #their relationship after he disappeared must have been in some way changed by his absence #and i really can't get over the fact that bones lived for so long as well. like he got to over double jim's age when he disappeared #they all probably thought they'd be together forever #and then.#and don't get me started on bones dying and spock immediately leaving for romulus #by my calculations (yes i did a shitton of maths for this and then took artistic liberty with the diagram anyway)#(yes i was also using rough guesstimate and headcanon for dates and ages bc canon is so conflicting)#they were all three together for 25 years. it was 28 years from jim taking command to him entering the nexus #minus three for the pre-Motion Picture divorce years. 25 years they actually got to be together as a triumvirate. not fucking fair.#also please note jim was 60 when he entered the nexus. bones lived to be 141 and spock got to 161. they were all together for 25 years.#i put the k/s overlap as only a few years because i haven't watched snw and figured there were probably only a few years cumulative where #they were together without bones being around too #mckirk overlap is roughly 11 years bc of personal headcanon that they were friends before the 5ym AHH BASTARD TUMBLR DELETED MY TAGS #Please see my reblog if you want the rest of these tags!!!

mydei having a library is absolutely heartbreaking symbolism. it's a running gag that the kremnoan language doesn't have many words; there's no word for flee, no word for fear, even no word for love. i know the library was his family's, but still -- it is such a distinct symbol of how mydei wants to break kremnoan tradition. how he openly rejects the idea that violence is the only valid form of communication. how he always dismisses the baseless rumours surrounding his abilities, proving that he values truth over glory. we see mydei try to talk his people into reason. we see him apologize to tribbie for being rude. we even see him (begrudgingly) admit to phainon that he knows how to interpret poetry. time and time again, mydei chooses language -- and truth -- over violence. so when he invites phainon to visit his library in the next life, he's not just expressing hope -- he's asking phainon to remember him by what he really believes in. even if i become the avatar of strife, he's saying, even if you have to kill me one day -- in the next life, please see me as the person i've tried to become.

mydei knows the power of a name, perhaps because his language has so few of them. and that makes it doubly ironic that he personally has so many titles: son of gorgo. the patricidal crown prince. kingslayer. godslayer. the undying. but as krateros points out, the name he prefers is the one he uses with the chrysos heirs. and although mydei doesn't talk much, all his actions seem to say the same thing.

remember me as mydei, not mydeimos.
