If you aren't boosting the signal, pay attention!

The FCC sided with Comcast and decided to let ISPs censor the internet. The Internet needs to stop this from happening: http://cms.fightforthefuture.org/tellfcc/

Last Wednesday, FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler announced a proposal for new rules that would allow for a “ fast lane” of Internet traffic for content providers who are willing (and able) to pay a fee. [1] The proposal reverses the FCC’s previous commitment to net neutrality and open internet and allows ISP’s like Comcast or Verizon to slow down and censor services that don’t pay the toll.

We have to be totally honest, this situation is seriously grim. But there is still hope. The FCC already knows that the Internet community wants net neutrality, but they think they can put their spin on these new rules and sneak them through. If we can prove them wrong right now with a massive public outcry, we can literally save the Internet once again.

We need to stop the FCC now. Big business groups are already ramping up lobbying efforts with the FCC in swarms since Wednesday’s announcement in support of censoring the open Internet and to ensure this dangerous proposal moves forward. [2]

This is a critical moment. In the last few weeks more than 65,000 people have taken action with us. Can you help us get to 80,000 by the end of the day today?

Warning, I share opinions you may not share.

Prostitution vs Brothels.

While I personally don't ever plan on breaking the law just to feel the comfort of another person's body, I feel like the only reason it is illegal to sell sex, is power.

Power of the churches to keep the world from "Descending into Sin" and giving women more power over their bodies.

Think about the times we hear about every time we watch a biblical type movie, back when "The Whore of Babalon" was deemed a part of the apocalypse coming. Who foresaw this? The church. Who is the Whore? A woman who finds a way to make money using her "God Given" gifts.

I don't want this to be an anti-religion post so I am moving on.

I understand the illegality of prostitution, It's dangerous for people to just go out, find a person who is selling their body, and do it. With diseases mutating so rapidly and becoming drug resistant, it would only be a matter of time till you couldn't trust having sex with anybody, even someone who hasn't had sex yet.

So that brings me to brothels, and other services like them. "Companion" services. Much like other things, if it's regulated, we wouldn't have to worry as much, barring negligence on the part of the business owners and laws protecting people and employees.

Some places have already come to the realization that it's a money making business. While I am not saying money buys happiness, it sure does buy things that make people happy, since joy isn't always so freely given.

Just my take on things.

I need to read this, often.

Things that no one tells you about being a transwoman that you need to know:

if you are on hormones, you will have to pee 24/7

you are so god damn beautiful

tucking is hard the first time, but it gets easier

you don’t have to tuck if you don’t want to

there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to be trans or to transition

YOu ARE GORGEOUS

you have to learn to love yourself, it will save your life

don’t let the rough times with dysphoria dictate how you feel about yourself on a daily basis

you need to acknowledge and cherish the things you like about yourself

know that you are fucking beautiful

drink like eighteen gallons of water a day

pay no mind to people who are ignorant

HONESTLy, SO PRETTY

bras are very sweaty

never feel like a burden for being you

tell yourself that your beautiful everyday

try to find positives in your life, they will help you when everything seems like it’s crumbling

wow, you. are. HOTTTTT.

patience is so important

there are going to be good days and bad days

your nipples are really going to hurt

no

like they will really hurt

if you are seeing a doctor for hormones etc, always be open and honest with any questions or concerns

you are as ***flawless as beyoncé and don’t let anyone tell your differently

you don’t have to be feminine to be a woman

don’t compare yourself to others

you are valid, you are worth it, and you worthy, you are important.

you are not alone, ever.

YOU ARE GORGEOUS.

Attraction

I have always been attracted to the strong and skilled woman, rather than the women who just skate by.

The latest crush, Sun from Sense8. She's strong, powerful, and has a duty to herself and those she cares for.

She takes all of the responsibilities of those around her, and makes them hers.

It has nothing to do with how beautiful she is. Though she is quite beautiful.

I hope to one day be the woman she is.

Something I drew years ago.

[anadeet-blog]

Needing a Vent.

Not always about Transgender issues, sometimes for the random thoughts that pop into my head. Those ideas that are either too funny or too serious to just put into a note on my phone. Those unrefined nuggets of what actually could make into a good project, be it a short story or a long series of books or television shows.

I need someone to play ball with, a mutual idea person. I have so many thoughts that the notes on my phone don't make sense a week later when I try to organize them.

I seriously had a note once that said something like "2D scroller/multi floor prison, work up in rank, make deals, zombie Dinosaur apocalypse breakout"

Dysphoria

I normally can push forward and get through it. There are days, nights, and weeks though that I can't seem to shake that wrenching pain of hatred towards a part of me when I look at it in either a mirror or my phone. It's usually my chest or neck.

I have way too much hair on my body, and it makes me want to take fire to it.

That being said, disfiguring burn wounds are not my thing.

[anadeet-blog]

What's poppin?

Shaving

I hate it. While it gets rid of the facial hair I long to get rid of, I have sensitive, oily, testosterone skin, so I cut myself, and have bumps, every single flippin' time.

Romantic/Cynicism

When I was younger, I always considered myself a romantic. The women I was interested in would receive the kindest, most heartfelt treatment from me, and everyone else got the basic treatment of kindness. I would go out of my way to make people welcome in my circle of friends, though they often laughed at us and went on to the non outsider groups, or would treat us like garbage.

But I didn't take it personally, we were odd, and that's how we liked it.

My first kiss, which happened during summer break of 2006, I was kind of pathetically in love with a girl that lived states away from me, here in the USA. Farmington, New Mexico, I just turned 17 a few months before.

At that time, I had a life ahead of me, planned with this girl. I would be an actor, and she, a director. I was going to be famous, and be famously trotting about with her.

Off track, sorry.

It was hot, her grandmother was inside, silently keeping watch over us as we swam in the above ground pool in the back yard. One of my best friends was there, visiting his girlfriend aswell, honestly, the only reason my dad let me go.

They had gone off elsewhere, and left us alone. I had it all planned over the last few nights. I would swim silently up beside her while her grandmother looked the other way, and wrap my arms around her. She would turn around, laugh, and I would bring my right hand up and caress her cheek, brush her hair to the side, and kiss her gently.

It turns out, you can trip in a swimming pool, over nothing while you're nervous.

I made enough noise that she turned around before I got to her. No soft hug from behind, no hair brushing out of the way, but I did manage to gather myself and cup her cheek and give her a small kiss.

She hated me for ruining her plans for the first kiss. But got over it when I told her how it was supposed to go.

That being said, I realized how cynical I have gotten when I heard the song Gorrila, by Bruno Mars? Anyway, you know how it goes...

How can you possibly expect someone to die for you just because you say you will for them? That is being selfish. Not just asking them to die for you, but what if they survive? That Grenade is going to leave them horribly scarred and possibly eating liquids through a tube for life. That train? nevermind. Ouch.

I know he is just being romantic, or whatever, but seriously? Drama much?

I hate that song, btw. If you couldn't tell.

I don't like being the girl that points out lyrical flaws and poor judgments, but there it is.

I was going to rant longer, but thinking about my ex took it out of me.

Selectively Sexual?

I really don't know what to call it. If I find you attractive, I find you attractive. I've been this way for a long time lol. But I have only ever been intimate with women. I noticed some men back when the first live action spiderman movies with Tobey Maguire came out, especially when he goes all emo. Most recently though, Brandon Flowers. Can I get a hell yeah?!

Sorry, had to.

His voice, his features, just... everything. I would love to just spend a day listening to him sing, though I don't know about intimacy. I am still not that far yet.

Anyway, just had to say something as I listen to his album.

Exhausted

Got home from work yesterday to an empty house. My first thoughts were of all the things I could do while they were away! I could paint my toenails and walk barefoot till they got home, I could paint my fingernails in a clearcoat, in the front room, hell, I could sit shirtless and be lost in my own thoughts without others badgering me.

Then like everything happened at once, all I wanted to do was lay down. So I did. But did I sleep? Sadly no. All I could think about was all the things I have to do to get my life back on track.

I recently moved to the city to be closer to doctors/therapists, colleges, and a community of transgender people. In my hometown, there is an older transwoman, who is referred to as "He-she" and it sickens me to even consider being open there. It was my own mother that called her that, :(.

Anyway, since the move, I've had to readjust just about everything in my life. I had a cushy job, and now I am on my feet the whole time, insurance to no insurance, money to no money, vehicle to no vehicle and I don't know how to move forward.
