Trans women should get maternity leave for getting cats. Especially so if it's two trans women who are partners and living together.

i’m not being mean or anything like congrats to everyone but i met one of these women and how poor and ruined her life was after she freshly fled in her car. her nerves were shot. she’s one of the people that made this possible, and she’s forgotten and unheard from

Here’s the story of one of them. Awful www.thestranger.com/forced-out/f...

It's so tiring when people without your disorder try to change your way of talking about it to be more positive and "respectful".I had this at work yesterday. Just a casual chat and I was explaining my sleep disorder including a "broken chemical pathway in my brain" and "my sleep cycle doesn't work"

Mass token sacrifice death trigger damage commander decks tempting me like the green goblin mask

My energy to finish the trans research project I've been doing is nearly entirely from spite and autistic need to correct people who are wrong or doing things badly. Relatedly that energy has recently been refilled.

Anal sex is just large sounding.

I don’t know dude. If James Baldwin was able to write all his work while his friends were being assassinated by the FBI, and while he was living in terror as a gay Black man … then maybe you can write without using A.I.

Gender dysphoria is making me consider breast augmentation choices again. It may sound stupid to others but it's really scary to me. From my position I think my choices are A)Carry on with hrt as is and hope B)put on fat I dont want C)risky hormonal augmentation again D)implants I doubt I can afford

It's really great to have trans allies but goddamn I get tired sometimes of some of their well meaning but ass support that I have to politely be grateful for when it's actually caused me dysphoria.

I might be more annoyed than I should be that they incorrectly name them back market when it's actually in a grey market. But I know they are saying black market because that sounds much scarier and so paints the harm reduction being done in a negative and illegal light to readers.

sorry, not to Discourse, but it fucking bothers me that so much art depicting trans women gives us over exaggerated masculine signifiers (facial hair, masculine fat distribution, flat chest, etc) when i am a masculine trans woman and have paid a steep price to get rid of or change all that shit

incredible to depict obviously feminine trans women with said signifiers when the most masc trans women i know (including butches) don’t fucking look like that. like what are we even doing here?

like this is not a “binary vs gender fuckery” thing actually. trust me when i say that masc trans women exist, and we do plenty of gender fuckery. we also get laser and take hrt. get off tumblr, stop drinking the validity kool-aid and actually get to know some trans women. we’re quite diverse

I was reading through the high court judgement and I think the below absurd setup is legal for a workplace to have and allows trans people to use the bathroom they want to.

I made my first blue commander deck today and it won a five person tribal game at bracket 3. I've never played any version of blue apart from a standard starter blue red deck. So I expected to lose. But I have played a lot of green. So I accidentally made a mono blue mass big stompy creatures deck

The latest "usecase" of AI I've been shown and encouraged to use is yet again a downgrade, more time consuming, and less reliable version of non AI systems already in place that work perfectly fine for the "issues" AI is solving. It's using a LLM to search and create statistics from a database.

I took a year long break on a LaTeX project because last year was hell for me and I return to find overleaf has had a billion updates, over-cluttered UI, AI desperately trying to get me to use it, and generally enshitified. This isn't helping me work out wtf I was doing a year ago.

Another day of witnessing bad hormone therapy knowledge from others and so another day of considering if the risk and cost of going back to uni to become an endocrinologist is worth it. I do somewhat wish I had done that at uni instead of quantum physics masters.

Correction: it's also people creating drama for the sake of drama because it's the only thing happening in their life and the main way they get more attention and community. AI gender theory is a net negative for improving trans lives. AI can't create new ideas and the drama drains all our energy.

How gay is it to be lesbian mech pilot with her girlfriend's live music playing in the cockpit? Maybe even have her in the co-pilot seat dedicated to it.

"negative social credit penis" Statements somehow said in my home today.

Looking up if messages sent while blocked go through after unblocking and finding out they don't for all platforms I've blocked my abusive exs on has been surprisingly good for my brain. It's no longer tempting to unblock them to see what they sent because nothing will be there.

If Abigail Thorne has no haters, not only am I dead, but the resurrection ritual failed to allow me to haunt her for the rest of her days. Her anti-'Protect the Dolls' article was monstrous for so many reasons, and I wrote out this massive response on Threads. Give it a look, if you'd like. X

You also carved a face in one of the pumpkins

Even as an expert in defining things I don't think it's up to me as a white trans woman with my connection to ballroom being just friends in it to decide if "doll" needs redefining, what its definition is, and what a new definition should be.

The cisexuals appear to be rediscovering intersectionality this week and they're not liking it

Are the people who are complaining about the term cissexual also the people who made micro labels? I'm not judging micro lables here btw. I'm just observing a correlation that might be very ironic

Abigail Thorn's latest essay is the worst essay from a trans person I have ever read. It is harmful to the trans community and especially the ballroom community that she is not part of but has decided to attack and not listen to. Please listen to people from the ballroom community instead of her.

Some cissexual she/theys and he/theys are just allies who got high on their own supply

Laurence of Arabia would have loved the Toyota Hilux

They've finally realised how much people watch on their phones while shitting. You can never escape the TV licence

I woke after this when she'd fallen back asleep and found her phone charger cable(still plugged in)wrapped around her. She is a chronic "rolling up in the duvet to steal it from me" but rolling up in a phone charged cable is new. I somehow untangled her without waking her up or unplugging the phone

Is 69ing mutual aid?

The biggest user of resources in spaces fighting for trans rights and quality of life is trans people who are defeatist energy vampires. Genuinely I believe this. My time and energy has been used up by those people more than actual transphobes and part of my job is trans healthcare.

Bluesky's age verification is absolutely garbage. None of it works for me so I guess I get no direct messages and I probably get far less interaction with my friends who do over 18 work

I will get around to doing a review probably. I might cooperate with some other people in doing so including people involved in the initial reviews. Don't expect anything immediately of course. Reviews take time to do properly. The aim would also be to improve the document not dismiss it.

I have a theory that most pride flags are garbage designs because the lower your skill level the quicker you can put a flag together and think it's good. Plus people can have overinflated ideas of their skill level from support spaces being overly polite about feedback and AI does this especially.

2001 film Lara got her filler tech recommended to her by the dolls and I will die on this hill

Does Lara croft fuck with the dolls? PS1 yes but by accident and not knowingly. She has trans friends but is somehow oblivious to them being trans. PS2 absolutely fucks with the dolls and bankrolls transitions. She also shares around and cares for an artifact that gives massive tits.

The chat me and Jess had due to this post somehow includes the quote "I don't think Voldemort would have fared too well against a tomahawk missile" and I'd like people to know that

Have some crows I saw a month ago

Jess is trying to convince me to have a katsu curry sauce calzone. "it's just like when you replace the tomato sauce of a pizza with BBQ sauce"

"I'm never going to tell you what your opinions of these people should be"- @surtic.bsky.social explaining the current bluesky discourse I think they should all go find a more productive use of their lives tbh
