I don't normally go through my follows list but my dash is sort of incomprehensible. I deleted all my likes because I'm never gonna break out of 5k likes lmao. I dunno what to do with myself, but this is my second oldest account so I guess I better clean it up.

i am alive and very tired. What do people do with blogs these days?

Wow, yeah, okay. I hadn’t really realized all of the parallels to ace discourse because that happened long enough ago that it’s not (always) at the forefront of my mind.

But like…

I had it pointed out that “transandrophobia fandom” is a rehash of “aphobia fandom”

And also…

“Aphobia would actually mean fear of nothing, so your word is bad” vs “Transandrophobia would actually mean an intersection between transphobia and androphobia, so your word is bad”

“Aphobia implies sga and trans people are aspec peoples’ oppressors, so your word is bad” vs “Transandrophobia implies trans women are trans mens’ oppressors, so your word is bad”

“Sga and trans people made the LGBT community, go make your own! *proceeds to harass aspec people within aspec spaces*” vs “Trans women made the trans community, go make your own! *proceeds to harass transmasc people within transmasc spaces*”

“Aspecs aren’t oppressed enough to have space in LGBT conversations, and the oppression they claim to face doesn’t exist or is far lesser than anything sga and trans go through! *is shown statistics that say otherwise* Well we go through that too so it isn’t unique enough to make aspecs oppressed! Can they have space to talk, then? Absolutely not!” vs “Transmascs have male privilege and so shouldn’t have space in trans conversations, and the oppression they claim to face doesn’t exist or is whimsical compared to anything transfems go through! *is shown statistics that say otherwise* Well we go through that too so it isn’t unique enough to you to claim that experience as yours too!”

And I’m sure there’s more, this is just all my morning brain is giving me. Feel free to add some.

had an experience recently that unnerved me for a few reasons but I just realized that one of the reasons is because I was experiencing woman dysphoria. like I was being excluded from womanhood and it made me uncomfortable and sad. multigenderhood is a wild ride all the time

Being a weird little girl as a kid provides two options to you: becoming transgender or becoming a weird adult woman. Both of which are things the world needs more of

Learning to work with the body and brain I have, rather than the one I thought I should have, has made my art better and easier to create.

Plant leather (which is, at this moment in time, still made with plastic) and other plant materials will never be able to fully replace fur and leather. Full stop.

There's no "but—" here. We are always going to need fur and leather because there are always going to be people doing work that needs strong and durable clothing and living in places where those materials are the only viable options to not freeze to death. Cotton cannot replace fur in subzero tempratures. Linen will never offer the protection of real leather.

We have yet to find any viable alternatives that provide the same level of warmth and protection that real fur and leather provide, which makes sense considering those things have evolved over billions of years to be the ideal ways for animals to stay warm and protected.

Advocate for better conditons for farms, including fur farms. Push for companies to use sustainable ways of tanning and preparing hides. But there is no future where fur and leather won't be used at all unless your hope for our planet involves us all boiling alive and not having much need for any clothing at all.

In the past 24 hours I have seen three separate video essayists I admire talk about how YouTube is currently screwing them over with bullshit content claims. Something fucky is going on here.
