Me getting an IUD.

Also, another thing on endometriosis research: it’s incredibly fucking important to study endometriosis in all genders, because not only has it oddly appeared in a few cis men, but trans men do seem to have higher rates of it. We also REALLY need to study how hormones affect it.

Surgery was unexpectedly delayed for a few days, so I'm still crowdfunding. If you have a few bucks to spare or even just a RT, it would really help.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind. It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty. Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face. Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

Just absolutely devastating news.

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

But, like, I *do* speak Middle English. So choosing it wouldn’t be incorrect.

I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide titled COLOR TASTE TEXTURE, that’s all about finding out what works for specific sensory needs and how to customize food for them. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience necessary.

This is your occasional reminder that, if you like Neil Gaiman's stuff, but can't bring yourself to like it anymore for justifiable reasons, Tanith Lee is the author he is credibly accused of extensively cribbing from, and her work is on Audible, and AMAZING.

two things are true: 1) we don’t come between parents and children. 2) we don’t help parents come between children and books.

Love this so much. 💜

100% this.
