Growly voice: "Family." Kirby voice: "Haiiiiiiiiii!"

This is true for every creative field. "Oh but this person went off meta and blew up!" yes, look at the image. "Oh but this person wrote a book that had no prior market and made thousands and thousands" yes, look at the image. "Yes, but this person-" Survivorship bias is real folks.

Oh this fucking rips.

The way it's going, trans people are going to have to build some kind of program that tracks single-occupancy bathrooms (and where to find them) over long car journeys. I have friends I want to visit in Colorado. I now have to drive around Kansas to do so. How long before I can't stop in NE either?

"Reminder that this thing that is hurting trans women is going to hurt cis women too! We have to stop it!" ... When you say this just say "real women". We fucking know what you mean. You don't give a shit about us. You just care about this thing hurting the people you actually care about.

messy blackletter version:) 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 gonna get some prints of this for Gothcon next weekend<3

"Why Are All My Friends Plural?" Asks "Singlet" Who is About to Find Out Why

I need blood capsules. Or fangs.

If you’re trans, you have to live.

Hanging up was the objectively correct response

Weird, isn't it?

If you're trans, you have to live

If you're trans you have to live

If you're trans you have to live.

If you’re trans, you have to live.

If you are trans, you have to live.

Well this is how you turn a Sylvia into a spellslinger.

Calling it now: They are building a Smash Brothers Cinematic Universe. I’m gonna start screaming. I don’t know if I‘ll stop. I don’t know what happens when I stop. I hate it here.

“Oh but they were important to my childhood!” You want me to care about your childhood? Care about my present. Then we can talk.

The thing is, most people don’t care about trans people. Sometimes this is good. It means they don't hate us enough to let “trannies in the bathroom!” sway their vote. But then we ask them not to watch *one fucking show* and suddenly we are asking them to starve to death or some shit.

Merlin I appreciate the compliment but I was rather hoping you could identify the local birds for me

i swear ai hypervigilance has ruined people's ability to take in anything other than beige-prose reddit comments. em dash? chatgpt. too descriptive? ai. someone uses the rule of three? llm slop. TOO MUCH TEXT in a comment? must be ai generated!!! fuck everything!!!!!!!!!!!

Fuck Harry Potter. Read some books written by a trans woman with magic and dinosaurs and angry lesbian buildings that eat people. Help other people find books written by trans women. Even if not me, just spend today recommending trans authors and sharing our books, please.

I finally have progesterone again and I hope to fuck it's gonna fix my sleep problems. Especially given how expensive my medications are, I'm up to $100 a fucking month to just have a functioning body and brain.

Finally the best way to square my chastity kink with my desire to be a sadistic bitch.

Absolutely seconding this. Also the author is an incredible human being who is very supportive of queer rights and as near as I can tell has been *even before* her daughter came out as trans (and Ms. Applegate supports her trans daughter wholeheartedly.)

All that said I do find it very fitting that a man left it for a woman to finish the job.

Also: while I am annoyed at past me for leaving so much of a mess to clean up, I will forever be grateful to him for making the decision that timelines between worlds do not sync up and are incredibly unstable so I don't have to fucking worry about the timeline. fixing this would be a nightmare.

Okay I have a very niche thing I'm angry about: "Death of the author" does not mean "Ignore harm the author is doing to trans people." "Death of the author" means "The author's intent doesn't matter. Analyze the work without intent. You can learn she's a bigot without her twitter." Thanks!

I love it when characters grab ahold of the plot. In my expanded universe I have, in the very first book book - the main character got sent to another world after his girlfriend dumped his loser ass. This was in 2020 IRL. CBDW that takes place on Earth after 6 years IRL and a decade in universe 1/3

There is no reason to ever support Harry Potter when you have better magic media waiting for you

it is not "holy crap it's 1pm and I've gotten nothing done." It is "Holy crap I've been up for 2 hours and had chats with partners, called pharmacy, done book promo stuff, set up groceries, and planned meals for the day (including plans for a week's worth of lunch prep)."

Fuck Harry Potter. Read some books written by a trans woman with magic and dinosaurs and angry lesbian buildings that eat people. Help other people find books written by trans women. Even if not me, just spend today recommending trans authors and sharing our books, please.

me: "Wow I'm having a rough day. I know I will do a task that's easy to accomplish and call my pharmacy about some medication. That will make things better." Pharmacy "Yes sir." Me: "...oh cool now I'm dysphoric."

I’m gonna suggest that if you’re trans and not in a good headspace, you stay off this fuckass site tomorrow. Already we’ve got cowards wringing their hands over how “no, it’s fine to watch the bigot’s wizard show. Honestly it’s best if trannies shut up,“ and the trailer is just gonna make it worse.

I will say it again: every agency that was created as a response to 9/11 should be dismantled. Every agency that was expanded because of 9/11 should either be reduced or dismantled. I am sick to fucking death of "two steps evil, one step back." This is how the shit fascists want got normalized.

Hi friends! Please help Ash get dinner!!! Even a little bit helps, and she just had money stolen from her. Make a small difference, let’s all protect each other.

Actually I don't think I'm going to check the news today. I'm going to assume if there's something I need to know, my friends and loved ones will let me know. I am going to assume my preemptive "Are You Fucking Serious?" is sufficient and not spend today online.

“Are you fucking serious?” “Oh no, what happened now?” “I don’t actually know. I’m just warming up for when I actually check the news.”

Hypnotize a submissive until she sees you as a demon she sold her soul to. Break her until she believes you own her mind, body, and soul. Untill she worships you. Watch the terror and awe and arousal in her eyes as she gazes upon you as the monster you are.

Important note: if you are non-binary because you wish to be genderless, that is still an available option in the new system. You are now, however, nonquaternary. No updates to the flag will be needed.

This. Like there absolutely will be people in public who see a trans person heading to the bathroom and follow them in, then claim they felt uncomfortable. It’s a 1000 dollar payday. Bathroom bounty hunting. The goal is to make it impossible for us to exist in public.

Wake up babe. New genders dropped. If you previously identified as a man and wish to continue to do so, the workman gender is available to fill that role, although it has been expanded to include certain flavors of Dykes and Enbies.

One of the stories this year that I could not put down without actual effort on my part. Definitely recommend checking out.

I've been working on this piece for a few months, and I won't lie it's hurt to go from hearing the suffering inflicted by this transphobic theocracy to seeing progressives sing its praises. The bishops' ban is the most extensive trans healthcare ban in the country. It deserves way more attention.

The purpose of it/its pronouns is projecting a hostile aura field that lets you find out if someone you come into contact with is a loser bitch baby who starts screaming and kicking if you're at all something they're not expecting
