Fertility, while a whole big thing, doesn't have a universal value to all people. I haven't had a doctor's appt where fertility or reproduction came up that didn't feel deeply invested in sex and bio babies for all. I would like medical care that didn't project norms and values.

Sign me up as seriously suggesting young people be put on hormones! Also?? It's exactly the level of care already given to cis kids.

HRT for trans teens is the only moral option. Imagine being 18 and *not having gone through puberty yet* because the only treatment you're allowed are blockers? Let trans teens go through their proper puberty. It's not difficult. It's not dangerous.

Does anyone else claim they need quiet time and then put on e.g. SOAD lolol.

Tldr for autistic life: "be yourself!" "not like that!" I would love to fund a poster contest illustrating this point.

Yesterday my kids were having a discussion about which (real) internal organs were fake and I wish I could just quickly create a poorly animated cartoon about organs and "whether" they were made up.

I've heard this rumor that some people, upon noticing an emotional reaction to a message, will *checks notes* not reply?? This can't be right. What have you seen/heard/lived?

🚨I write to you with a heavy heart; my child and I are facing days that are beyond our capacity to endure💔 My child is appealing to your humanity and pleading for your mercy. He is suffering from malnutrition; his body is deteriorating more and more each day😭 🙏donate here🙏👇🏼🥹 tinyurl.com/4rdnwyzx

My ex used to make me feel bad for crying about exchanges with people I should expect to make me cry. So that's a thing in my head. (Can't just purge the stuff from my ex that was reenforced elsewhere, sadly.) Like why argue with family or friends that you know will just upset you. Idk!

Apparently "not to be conservative" was insufficient. Apparently this is not a universal experience in trans teen healthcare. I'm super stressed so please everyone use inside voices and maybe this will resolve itself. I care about kids. I care about trans kids. This post came from that. ISWIS. ✌🏿

Apparently my kid and I experienced a thing that doesn't happen? 😭 I don't know what's what.

This is NOT an argument for denying life saving treatments to teens. But needing life saving treatment doesn't make a kid old enough to sign a contract and this is no less serious. Just saying. Feels icky as a parent. But maybe everything is like this what do I know.

I wish we called bad people by the evil they've chosen and the harm they've inflicted rather than our assessment of what's wrong with them. It doesn't matter what's "wrong" with the powerful person who chooses to exploit, dehumanize, and violate others while facing no real consequences.

Friends: the algorithm godesses feed on Goodreads ratings and Amazon reviews. Who knew. If UNLOCKING JUSTICE resonated, a quick rating or review is a great way to help it reach people who might not know about it otherwise. Thank you for considering! 🙏 (Thank you for your attention to this matter? 😬)

Not to be conservative but I don't feel great about asking a teen if they want to save their sperm/eggs before hrt.

Hitler gets outsized credit for his "accomplishments." The atrocities he mimicked and borrowed from should be just as well known. (Listening to P.L.U.C.K.)

Turns out UofT trauma is why my book didn't print.

The problem is I make friends the same way I make enemies.

We have been waiting MONTHS for this appt and my kid maybe has a sore throat and I just absolutely reject this intel. We have no risk factors or known exposures; we stay home. I think our last outing was to get covid shots. I don't know what happens if she feels worse tomorrow. I can't

i miss believing in education

i think that if one is treated poorly a lot for a long period of time then one shouldn't have to go to therapy about it lmao. i know that's a gross misunderstanding of therapy. but i can't help but feel like therapy is trying to help you with your problems whereas "my" "problems" are les autres

New technologies that are subject to multiple unrelated wrongful death lawsuits should be paused until higher standards can be determined and instituted. 🤷🏿‍♀️

don't any of you tell me i am able to, you pedantic bitches. i know. i'm talking about cultural and societal norms, not my actual abilities.

if i see my own post reposted on my skyline, i should be able to like it

it's 2026 and i have a new idea no one's ever thought of before—OC do not steal i came up with it. what if there's a "dirtbag left" of "brocialists" and these "platnerbros" refuse to vote for the most qualified senate candidate ever, susan collins, because they hate the idea of a woman having power?

#Murderbot #Therapy Do we believe murderbot felt shame? I feel like fear/sensitivity is sufficient to be avoidant but there was the thing where ART said murderbot didn't like its function but its function wasn't ever the problem.
