People want us dead when they most need us. Deep inside they know, We could help if they only let us.

And we keep trying, We come back again and again, & we get chased out town after town.

Until we become the crazy old lady in the woods, you always saw us as.

The curse of a good heart. The curse of (not) knowing better.

I should like to say ‘yes’, and (not) answer three anons at once

Happy Midsummer's💘🍀🥂

I have no idea how to keep it neat with so many wildly unrelated things going on.. I've decided to try something before it gets out of hand, so some of the tags in the pinned are pretty deserted to start with. I'm gon' do whatever for a year or so, see what sticks. getting a ware-overdo, so hopefully I'll at least be getting back into music & some edits soon :)

I made a secondary feed to be chaotic on. It'll be a deliberate mess 'till I figure out what I like to do & watcha like to see. There's over 300 of you, but I have very little engagement; now would be a great time to send in your thoughts, too.

We thought we were immortal.

We thought we couldn't be undone,

Not by anyone.

Least of all any man.

People point out the dreadful John/Joan case, (dr. Money did do useful research in his time too, but, ew) and somehow frame it as evidence against trans people. Absurd, since the results are actually proof, that neither sex & biological factors, nor the environment (upbringing, social roles etc.) affect our gender -just the extend to which we're comfortable expressing & discussing it. Poor David was a boy. He didn't turn into a girl, despite the sex reassignment surgeries, and being shoved into the feminine mold by his social surroundings. Which made him extremely uncomfortable. (I won't go into details, the life of the Reimer twins was a tragedy, but do read up, if you're interested.)

I've heard some extreme people claim we're 'making people (think they're) trans', or encouraging children to have surgery. I've never heard this happen, but it exists in these people's minds. I would agree; it's a terrible idea to actively try & change someone's gender experience. We shouldn't be messing with children's healthy genitals. No one should be forced to abide by gender roles. Thing is, that's exactly what the world is currently doing to many trans & intersex (as well as cis) kids. I wish the general public would understand how crucial this is.

Government: work from home

me: works 10 hours a day

also me: feels intensely unaccomplished

art films, thrillers, camp horror: this is what's wrong with the world

us, the children of that world: um, yes please?

listening to rave music

home alone
