At the office where I have completed my little tasks for the day but I can't leave yet and, being at the office, I cannot do anything of value (baking, crocheting, reading a book, parenting) at the moment

Google photos has decided to up the number of dysphoria-inducing "memories" it shows me and I must say I don't care for it

I feel like there's a connection between the "vote Blue no matter who no not Mamdani" people and the "we make trans jokes because we have a responsibility as bold truth-tellers also I'm doing the Riyadh comedy festival" comedians deciding fuck it we don't have to care about consistency anymore

Called my senators for all the good it may do

If you're trans, you're trans. Live your life and get the most out of it. It's going to be hard no matter what. There's no reason to be proactive about limiting yourself or making it harder. Seize your own happiness, tranny! Nobody else is going to seize it for you!

Genuinely outstanding reply I got from my husband when I made a similar joke. (I was carpooling some kids listening to KPop Demon Hunters)

Seeing ally discourse and there are a lot of shitty "allies" out there but I'd like to recognize my spouse, who is the only cis person I've ever heard make a good trans joke, my brother who answers the phone "'sup dude" when I call, and [REDACTED] who I believe will *** ** ********** if necessary

Not British but whenever I hear Labour talking about treating trans people with dignity and respect this is what I think of

"Trans men unpleasant" factoid statistical error, Unpleasant Harrison is an outlier adn should not have been counted

It is really worth learning to do eyewashes! Please consider getting trained if you haven't been already (if you're in the DC area I can help)

Look how they massacred my boy

In a world of uncertainty I think my unwavering faith in the Domino's pizza tracker is really inspiring

Google just suggested an NPR piece talking to some members of the National Guard currently stationed in DC and it's disgusting fluff (and doesn't include conversations with people who live and work in DC), I should have known better than to click. Horrible.

Isn't this market saturated already???

One small but depressing aspect of being trans is constantly worrying and, often, finding out that people who seem cool very much do not care if you specifically live or die. It happens a lot and like a lot of things it's not big but it helps grind you down and make you feel alone.

Objection your honor, assumes facts not in evidence

Bought my daughter a set of Encyclopedia Brown books and now she won't let me read them

I was put on this earth to unlock the secret of the Sumerian dog joke. Perhaps this is the key.

they have a very specific story they really REALLY want to tell but the problem is that story is not in any way what happened

If you're in Maryland among many other places you can get Narcan without a prescription

they're trying as hard as they possibly can to find something they can use as an excuse to systematically oppress and murder trsns people

I am incredibly fortunate to have people who care so much about me and, since Trump was elected, I have been offered refuge in Canada, Australia, and, improbably, Nebraska if I need it; it means so much to be loved and to know others see the dangers but also I need to keep living my life.

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

Not political but my dad used to call me every third of June and sing Ode to Billy Joe; he's got dementia now but I still have a voicemail of him singing from a year I missed the call

I got a job making a bit more money which means I've been able to do more stuff like Venmoing money to friends (or trans people I follow on here but don't know well) when they need it. It's not even a drop in the bucket and it's never as much as I'd like but it feels good to do.

When I die I hope people say "He was a kind person who did what was right. Also extremely funny and handsome" then play What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong at my funeral. I hope this doesn't happen for a long long time and well before then we create a better world.

Happy anniversary to that time my daughter had a dentist appointment on September 11th and I made so many "never forget" jokes I still remember

of all of the cable segments I am not going to watch, this is the one I am not going to watch the most

They're doing an audiobook too? At this point it feels like they're doing more Harry Potter for the sole purpose of demonstrating that no one cares about trans people. There cannot possibly be a real demand for this! We already have movies and audiobooks! They are beloved! Who is this for!!!

I keep seeing trans people expressing unwillingness to work with transphobic political parties (US and UK) and cis people saying "we need people like you to make it better!" and I get it but it's not our responsibility to waste our time and energy exposing ourselves to harm to fix political parties

Not quoting because I know they're trying to be supportive but I saw a post say denying people the right to own firearms should be based on mental health evaluation for violent tendencies and not identities e.g. being trans but the government thinks being trans is a violent mental health disorder

It's weird to me the things conservatives think are sacred to people on the left. I used to work with a guy who was like "things aren't so great in your precious Canada either" and I was like "what the fuck are you talking about, Canada isn't the US but it still sucks" and he didn't know what to say

trans person: i'd like some trans care please the entire medical field: explain why trans person: it would make me happier the entire medical field: here's how this could make you unhappy trans person: i'm already unhappy the entire goddamned medical field: we need you to be unhappy longer

Knowledge of good and evil

This is about the green apple Smirnoff Ice they were selling at the Jamaican restaurant btw

I'm tired and I deserve a really stupid treat

I am so desperate for top surgery it's physically painful and when a buddy from my support group got top surgery and was excited to share that with me to "spread trans joy" I felt fucking awful and you know what I did my best to smile and congratulate him because my issues are not his problem.

Absolutely fucking yes, my birthday is in May and I used to get a fruit tart from my favorite bakery instead of a cake (Pastiche on Federal Hill for any Rhode Islanders reading)

Actually I think we could use a lot more purity tests

Sharing with ALT text for those who aren't aware of the ongoing real world implications for trans people in the U.S. "I'm afraid I could be arrested if I travel to that state..."

Sure boss. I don’t know what “accountable” means but I’d love to be held.

Gorge

But he is evil? He launders fascism for people who think they're liberal and makes the unacceptable palatable. I mean he's also INCREDIBLY annoying but I do think even so the annoying is outweighed by the evil.

Schrodinger's Trans Child Law dictates that trans teenagers are old enough to be characterized as "women" in headlines but not old enough to make medical decisions for themselves

You know when something I think is good happens I generally feel happy about it! But it seems like for TERFs and other bigoted whiners the more they "win" the whinier they get. Perhaps it's because they know they are unworthy of love or respect and they'll never get them.

"bluesky is dying" that's cool man. i go on here to make funny posts with my friends

Pro: Our enemies are all idiots, surviving on mold and stress, with the tactical capabilities of a dead halibut, and the aptitude for oratory of an out-of-date yoghurt. Con: Unfortunately, they are still winning.
