Some story with two siblings who get into utter bullshit together, and every single time they're caught, the older one puts on a brave stoic stance of "I'm the one at fault, my little brother/sister is innocent, I take full responsibility. I was the one who pulled them into this, if you have to punish someone, let it be me and me alone."

And every single time their parents are like "look, you are not in any way responsible of your sibling, but I'm proud of you for wanting to protect them. It's noble of you to ask to take the full punishment for yourself, and it would be low of me to take you on that offer." and proceed to not punish either of them.

The parents never put it together that this was the plan all along, the younger sibling is in on the scheme too. They know that the punishment never happens and the Older Sibling's Noble Sacrifice is just their regular Get Out Of Jail Free-card.

to everyone who has been talked out of testosterone HRT because it will make you "scary": no it will not. testosterone isn't "scary". masculinization isn't "scary". being masculine or a man isn't "scary". it's just another way to be a person. testosterone HRT is a good thing. it helps many people. if you want to take it, take it. don't let anyone else tell you not to because it "scares" them. it's not happening to them. their fears don't matter to you. it's happening to you. it's your choice.

since the yearly "certain medications can cause heat intolerance" PSAs are out in full force, let us fondly remember last year when I was at Pennsic (big ass medieval recreation event) and our group was tearing down our giant tent lodge we use for our kitchen and dining hall. and there's a part at the very end where the roof is sort of on the ground, but still tented on a pole in the middle. and someone has to go under there to unhook the roof from the pole. but it's hot as fuck in that part since it's been baking in the sun for two weeks, so it's called "Satan's asshole". which resulted in somebody VERY solemnly telling me, "going into Satan's asshole is NOT a job for somebody on SSRIs"

If your privilege relies on you passing 100%, and being completely stealth, and closeted about your trans identity, then it's not really privilege.

It's a restriction.

When i say that anti trans laws will affect cis people too, I’m not saying “we’re all in this equally.

I’m saying it because cis people will never care for us on our own.

It’s not some hippie dippy kumbaya bullshit, it’s strategic and necessary. Sorry it doesn’t pass your purity test!
