On tongues stilled, voices quieted, and the endless cry of the silenced.

From one of my talks with Ursula Le Guin, on Omelas: "You want to help the kid, but you can't. One reason it makes kids so angry is that it’s an arbitrary rule. And they don’t want to realize that most social rules are arbitrary."

The biggest realisation for most people who transition after the age of 30 is not that they are trans but rather that love can be unconditional.

i was put here to take underexposed film photos and kiss girls, emails were never supposed to be part of the equation

"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, / dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix"

Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head? "Moloch! Moloch! Robot apartments! invisible suburbs! skeleton treasuries! blind capitals! demonic industries! spectral nations! invincible madhouses! granite cocks! monstrous bombs! They broke their backs lifting Moloch to Heaven!" Ginsberg "Howl"

Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head? "She's all states, and all princes, I. Nothing else is." Donne, "The Sun Rising"

It's that time of year again! (When our household consumes its combined body weight in mangoes in the space of a month)

When I was a kid they said it was important to be like Jesus so now I exclusively hang out with sex workers, the mentally ill, criminals, and self-sworn enemies of the state and I gotta say it fucking rules

My friend Alyson once said "Trans women don't tell ghost stories around the campfire, we just talk about our childhoods" I want every non transfem person to sit and think about what it means that almost every single transfem I know has more than one horror story and will treat it like it's normal

"2nd wave feminism is my Roman Empire" ejected me into space

the problem with circumcision is that it doesn't go all the way

The degree to which you misrepresent the study you're reporting on is astonishing. This graph is from that study: 94.6-98.4% of all youth trans participants turned out to be trans at the end, not 80%. And SEGM, who you quote as an authority here, is an SPLC-recognized anti-trans hate group.

transitioning is not the last time you’ll have to claim ownership of your life. you will have to do so over and over again until it becomes tiring. but you will still have to do it.

Earthquake! Haven't felt one of those for a while

a selfie a day keeps the dysphoria away

ok you’re scared? do it scared.

seems like a lot for a podcast company

I feel like it's also a ritual thread connecting us to the darkness of the past, all the way back to Sumerian priestesses and further. The one surgery people like us have always been able to get (even if lots didn't survive it back then) The act of removing the balls is our sacred inheritance

NO. TURNING. BACK. THIS IS WHO I AM. FOREVER AND ALWAYS. REACHING TOWARDS HAPPINESS AND SELF-ACTUALIZATION. MY BODY. MY VESSEL. MY LIFE.

Kimmy by Alyson Greaves is a book about the impact of really ill-considered Halloween costumes on marriages

it is with a heavy heart that i must announce that paul graham, the "works on my machine" of capitalism, is at it again

And once a year when Christmas comes We give to our relations And perhaps we give a little to the poor If the generosity should seize us But if any one of us should interfere In the business of why there are poor They get the same as the rebel Jesus
