My very unpopular opinion apparently:
Straight cis perisex able-bodied neurotypical people using aids designed for disabled people (I.e weighted blankets, grabby claw, sock holder, etc), going to therapists occasionally to keep up their mental health, using fidget toys, choosing to call their bf/gf their partner, using pronouns besides the ones associated with their gender just because they like it, and doing a million other small things that make us fitting in and being accepted a little bit easier is in fact exactly the type of support these communities need, and will ultimately help us so much more than gatekeeping ever fuckin will

Once upon a time,
Long Ago. Away.
I met a pretty girl.
I smiled at her and she smiled back
I giggled, you’re cray.
You’re cray - she giggled, chiming with
me.
The wind blew at us
Hair blurring our face. We
smiled at it, together.
We grumbled-just a tiff. I flicked
pebbles at her. She hid,
ducking underwater
I frowned.
10 seconds after, she was
back. Patient. Together.
Said stay as I mouthed-
I lip-read her.
And smiled as she did-
She understood.
Now, she won’t be there.
I look for her
She is gone. Just my face.
It’s not the same.
It’s not pretty.
Crazy
How can I learn about indigenous practices/histories around the land I live on?
Those I love say they're proud of me, now
Tail-end of 8 months in infinity
I don't look for their words of affection.
I'm not scared to be ugly
In the way women are taught to be
All sunshine and beauty.
I do not doubt now,
That I may in fact be beautiful -
I am Beautiful
Not because I'm pretty
I don't turn heads when I walk the room
I'm hardly precious in dear finery.
What's more,
My hair doesn't always flirt with
The wind, my feet don't know how to
make love to the earth and grass, the show
Doesn't please lusty onlookers.
I pause when I see beauty,
A pleasant surprise waiting within me -
I don't wait to achieve anymore
I revel in my company.
I've learnt to hold friends tightly,
Look them in the eyes so
They may smile from inside me.
I forgive my family,
So they may not hurt any
Longer than I can help, for
all that I love about their journey.
I don't rest in the past anymore
I don't pine for a whimsy future
I'm elated to just be
And in being, I achieve me.
