Girl, I started at 36 and it was the best damn decision I made in my life.
Do I wish I'd started earlier? Sure, but also my life now is infinitely better than it was before that point. Plus I'm hot
@LarisawWhite
Seek out the people who love you for who you are, seek out community, embrace the things that were beaten down inside you over your pre-transition years.

I love how in past times we (trans folk) were in positions of honor and power until Colonial Christianity vilified and killed our queer ancestors. (This is also true for neurodivergent folks)

Yeah, the part that happened at McGill University in Canada is horrifying because it left people virtual children afterward.
"Compersion" should get more use outside of poly circles. We should all feel joy when those we care about feel joy even when we're not involved in said joy
@EntryLvlNut
What makes things a bit confusing I think is that some of the best books I've read about Dom/Sub dynamics and being a good/healthy dom use the terminology Top/Bottom but are clearly about Dom/Sub. (I'm thinking "The Topping Book" and "The Bottoming Book")
@cockmogger
The idea that you can find someone attractive enough to swipe and then go "oh I'm not attracted just because of what's between your legs" is baffling to me.
The Doctor (David Tennant) has a great record of defeating fascists, so maybe he'll get Fascist Adjacent Radical Transphobe and formerly beloved children's author Robert Galbraith to stop spewing her hate. He could do it with one sentence.

Yup, He went there with the intent to shoot "rioters", based on other statements of his. But they weren't allowed to bring it up in court.

The way the right in America has successfully labeled the overwhelmingly centrist press (NYT, NPR, CNN etc) as Liberal and therefore made them afraid of reporting REALITY is infuriating.
@stacycay
We shouldn't have to "Get over" it. Dave has always been kind of a misogynist, and FARTiness/TERFiness is rooted in misogyny (internalized for women and just regular brand name misogyny for cis men), the people in his life need to hold him accountable
@stacycay
I also LOVED his comedy back in the Chapelle's Show days and he's still a powerful voice on racism, but his lack of intersectionality, and his lack of acknowledgement of the privileges he has as a rich straight cis dude is sad and painful
We are heading into Pride month, and I want to remind white queer people and allies that Two-Spirit is a term specifically created by queer Native American & First Nations people to simplify advocacy. π§΅

I mean, a plane, and maybe the contrails from the plane but a contrail is still water vapor exactly like a cloud and it is still in the sky. The op's picture is pretty clearly a boundary between Pressure zones, it happens all the time.

That's why I've left the acronym coined by radfems to distance themselves from transphobes behind, now I call that group of transphobes Feminism Appropriating Radical Transphobes (FARTs)

That show is still my favorite Ryan Murphy project, largely thanks to the just damn awesome cast and their complete embrace of Camp Comedy

@Progchamps
That's part of why I phrased it as "Colonial Christianity" because the proto-Church depicted in the gospel was far less patriarchal than the surrounding society or the Church that Paul built (despite Jesus having been pretty clear in the Gospel that Simon Peter is the foundation)
@Esqueer_
They're publicly shouting "if we gain power we will implement a fascist coup" and no mainstream (NBC, NPR, CNN, NYT etc) press is calling it what it is.
Reminder that TERFs coined the term TERF but now they call it a slur. There's nothing Radical or Feminist about them though.
They're Feminism Appropriating Reactionary Transphobes.
@pierbiwierbi
The internalized transphobia can sneak up. People who know well enough to say "there's no one right way to be trans" can respond pretty harshly to people being trans in what they see as the "wrong way". Trans liberation means gender freedom for everyone, including he/him femboys

@dani_susanna
Honestly reporting it might put the wife/cake maker in immediate danger So I completely understand not reporting it at this time
@Esqueer_
For fucks sake, 1% of detransitioners detransition out of regret (rather than out of pressure from friends/family/the culture at large) and detransitioners are only something like 1% of people who transition.
