Social transition being seen (by some) as this super easy thing that isn't as hard as real transitioning (medical) is bullshit. Be critical of the idea that there are some trans people who just "have it easy" because they are trans or because they are trans in ways you may not be.
Social transition is just as difficult, hard, and rewarding as medical transition. Maybe it is not as hard for some, sure, but that is not the same as thinking that social transition is inherently easier or lesser. If you're socially transitioning, your voice still matters.

I need to know if I'm the only person who can't stand reading hardcovers with the dust jackets on??? The way they slide around and start tearing or curling at the edges drives me crazy sjsbnsn the FIRST thing I do before reading any hardcover is take the dust jacket off and never put it back on 😭 (I keep them for storage if they're exceptionally pretty or if it belongs to someone else then I put it back on when I give it back, but most of them get thrown away) I always see people reading books with them still on though and it makes me suspect I might be the outlier here...

shadow bandee design i made awhile ago :D (jan 17th, 24)
i feel like mirror bandee would be very skilled without putting the effort in, getting where they are by power, instead of earning it through putting the work in. this would lead to them becoming over-confident and become the cause their biggest weakness. a friend pointed out this would mirror dedede in the beginning of the series too!
