It Reaches Up To 20 Degrees Celsius In October And There's Still A Fuckton Of Mosquitos Around. I Live

Random thought I've been having for a while now but I'd love to experience the covid lockdowns all over again but as cis.

Like instead of crying over how this means my hrt will get post poned for two more years, I could spend all my days playing videogames and jacking off and generally chilling around, all while you're actually obligated to do so.

Yes I know that all the stuff covid has done is terrible both regarding the disease itself, and the cultural, political, and economic impact it had, but, 16 year old me could've hardly known about that, much less care

''trans lesbians don't have heterosexual privilege"

Oh

You know that thing with a ball in a jar, where the ball represents grief and the jar represents you? And while the ball doesn't change, the jar gets bigger, representing that grief doesn't get less, it's just that you grow bigger. When I got first introduced to that concept, it seemed ridiculous. But since then... I know that it's true. There's certain things in my life, if I actively think about them, they get me just as mad and worked up as if they happened yesterday. However, they don't occupy my mind 24/7 anymore, like they did when they did happen recently. And I think that's exactly what they mean with the ball in a jar analogy. And I suppose that's better than nothing.

queers will do anything except admit that amab/afab dynamics within the queer community are often the same as man/woman dynamics in the general world

this 1000%. I've seen trans women upset that they aren't included in rape shelters and the like and their reasoning doesn't go much beyond parroting "trans women are women" and "muh inclusion". Are these people really too dense to understand the difference between a hair salon and a rape shelter? ffs.

I blame cis people for this, but I don't think that transfem people should be centered in conversations around 'Women's Issues'. The truth is that most queer people are misunderstanding what 'Women's Issues' actually are. They try to make it inclusive by claiming that transfems and transwomen are welcome, that if you identify as a woman then clearly 'Women's Issues' apply to you too.

And we can argue that transfems are in need of reproductive justice too, because of course they are. But when you claim that abortion is a 'Women's Issue', you're not helping transwomen and transfems, you're still being an exclusionist piece of shit.

I don't think transfeminine people should be centered in this discussion because these AREN'T issues that only women go through. Reproductive justice is important, but not when it excludes the transmen and transmascs who get raped, sold & married off, & forcibly detransitioned just so they can bare children. I don't care that you 'don't feel included' by white cis feminists when they talk about 'Women's Issues', because you're not the one being denied an abortion for having an M on your ID. Or being denied an abortion, period!

'Look at how uninclusive this event about Women's Rights is!' And what the fuck are YOU going to do about it when you get into this little club by climbing over the bodies of your trans brothers? Come the fuck on!

I'm so sick of 'Women's Issues'. I'm so sick of 'female' spaces' biggest issue being that they exclude transfems, & not that they're actively hostile towards transmascs who NEED these services.

Inclusion is important, but not when it means forming an exclusive little clique that leads to more death. This isn't your conversation to lead.

its so weird knowing the average person isnt mentally ill. like wdym you aren't disappointed whenever you wake up that cant be true

I hate how my biggest goals in life rn are to have a steady 9-5 that doesn't completely mentally drain me, and allows me to have an actual life work balance, live in my own 1 bedroom apartment with no roommates, where I can eat healthy homecooked food and actually own a functioning car I can drive. Why the fuck is that considered a wild dream nowadays? This was literally the standard/minimum like 20 years ago. Wtf. I don't want to do this anymore this whole world is bullshit why are human dignity(and rights) becoming a pipedream

You are well within your right to be angry about the help you didn't get and should have gotten.

You are well within your right to be angry about having your needs neglected.

You are well within your right to be angry.

Suicide isn't selfish, it's not your fault if you want to end your suffering.

Big part of this is the fact parents often can't let go of their parental role even after they've been an adult for several years. Like tf you mean your 22 year old son has a curfew?

People often compare toxic parents of adult children to toxic roommates, but it's nowhere near the same simply due to the power dynamic parents feel like they have even over their adult children. At least with a toxic roommate you're on the same level of authority, the same can't be said about toxic parents.

there's no shame in continuing to live with your parents as an adult, but it does have an undeniable poisoning effect on your brain that you can't start healing until you live somewhere else
