Okay. I have a semi serious comment. On they/them pronouns & assuming pronouns.

So we as people tend to use they/them if we’re certain we don’t know someone’s gender.

Y’know. The telemarketer, the person who left their keys at work, the person who forgot their coat at school, the person who left a package at your door...

& we do it naturally. ¿Yea?

You (/general) don’t find it “confusing” to use they/them for people you’ve never met.

But when you meet someone in person...

You look at their hair, their face, their clothes, & go “you MUST be a boy & use he/him” or “you MUST be a girl and use she/her” (/srs).

How bold of you. (/snark)

How bold of you to assume you know that person already.

How bold of you to forget tomboys (masculine women) & femboys (feminine men) exist among the cis population.

How bold of you to forget that even you have had longer “feminine” hair or looked “feminine” when you shaved your face.

How bold of you to forget that even you used to have short hair & used to hate dresses/skirts/blouses.

¿Wasn’t it still uncomfortable when someone called you “¿ma’am?”/“miss” or “¿sir?” & got it wrong?

How bold of you to assume based on YOUR idea of what a man should/has to look like that they were a man.

How bold of you to assume based on YOUR idea of what a woman should look like that they were a woman.

You were forced into a box of man/woman growing up. I know.

But you don’t have to fit the box either. It’s okay if they put the wrong label on your box.

You cannot force those who don’t fit the box to fit. You cannot force them to become small & Perfect™.

There are masculine people who use she/her or they/them.

There are feminine people who use he/him or they/them.

((Usually people joke/comment that feminine men “have a baby face” or masc women “look masculine”. It happens even among cis populations.))

So how bold of you.

You assume to know them already. To know their gender at a glance.

If even cis people can be wrongly identified, ¿why do you still assume you’d know the right pronouns for trans people?

This is why we ask.

This is why we ask.

Even if you are cis, I may not be able to tell for sure because presentation does not define identity.

Presentation does NOT define identity.

Just because you wear a business suit doesn’t make you employed/a businessperson.

Just because you don’t wear a wedding ring, doesn’t mean you aren’t actually married.

Just because you have short hair doesn’t mean you’re a man (or a lesbian - straight/other LGBT women can have short hair too)

& just because you have long hair doesn’t mean you’re a woman (see goth men, emo men, & any other community with long hair).

Just because you wear a name tag doesn’t mean you’re actually employed (or on the job).

Just because you paint your nails or your face doesn’t mean you’re a woman (plenty of men do it too)

So why do you assume to know? (/rhetorical)

I know you may be scared to question these things.

It’s okay to be scared. It’s not okay to try & control other people’s identities because you’re afraid to question your own.

You are allowed to question these things.

If you feel like you need permission, I am giving you permission.

Question & explore your gender identity.

Change your gender presentation.

Wear a dress/tux. Wear a chest binder (if you safely can). Wear makeup. Wear a cloak/cape. Wear Victorian clothes or a corsette. Explore.

Use different pronouns wherever you safely can—with new friends, new coworkers, online if you feel safe

& explore names wherever you safely can— a Starbucks you rarely go to, a store you rarely shop at, anywhere that asks for a name for your order.

Explore your identity. You’re allowed to change & you’re allowed to uncover parts of your child self or younger self you hid long ago.

Break the binaries. Expore nonbinary identities & experiences.

You do not have to stay stuck.

Whether you’re 13 or 65 or 100+ or whatever, it is never too late to rediscover yourself.

& ¿if the people around you (family, friends) refuse to accept your true self, your newly affirmed identity?

Find new ones. Find people who will accept you. They’re out there; your people may still be out there.

It is okay to leave a marriage, to outgrow family members, to leave behind people who deny your gender, your sexuality, your entire identity. If no one else will give you permission, I am giving you permission.

& if no one else accepts you, I do. I may not be able to be your crutch, but I see your true self & embrace all that you are.

You ARE nonbinary, you ARE trans, you ARE whoever you discover yourself to be. Free yourself to accept & grow into yourself.

It can be scary to question these things society has tried to/has embedded in everything.

But you’re allowed.

Find a safe place to explore & rediscover. You still have time.

Both for those who are too afraid to question & still assume at a glance, & for those who are starting to wonder, I see you & you are allowed to start a new journey.

From a nonbinary demiboy & a system of many, we accept you & good luck. (/genuine) 💖

((& any hate will be blocked/deleted. This is a power post & a challenge to stigma/misunderstanding. There is no space for hate here. Please find out why you are unhappy/hurting & withdraw your negativity (/genuine, gentle).))

I feel like it's a good idea to bring this back with the current threat

i had to reblog this, more people should know :)

Chiune Sugihara. This man saved 6000 Jews. He was a Japanese diplomat in Lithuania. When the Nazis began rounding up Jews, Sugihara risked his life to start issuing unlawful travel visas to Jews. He hand-wrote them 18 hrs a day. The day his consulate closed and he had to evacuate, witnesses claim he was STILL writing visas and throwing from the train as he pulled away. He saved 6000 lives. The world didn’t know what he’d done until Israel honored him in 1985, the year before he died.

new quiz just dropped: what are you?

@waddei’s DTIYS! :3 I didn’t do anything super different , but I still hope you like it!

regarding posting dream smp content:

i've been made aware by trusted friends and sources in private correspondence on discord that the extent of the issues with the dream smp are actually more than i can reasonably excuse my enjoyment of it for (as documented in this callout post), so i would like to publicly acknowledge and apologize for that.

until very recently i was under the impression that the majority of past instances of controversy surrounding dream and some of his friends were things that had been addressed by them and that they were making an effort to learn and change for the better. i was assured of this by people i believed were trustworthy. and i am ashamed to admit that until it was brought to my attention directly in private by multiple friends, some of whom understandably no longer wish to associate with me due to my ignorance until proven guilty, i was unaware of any major criticisms, including anything i received for my involvement in watching and sharing fan content for the dream smp because i hadn't seen any well sourced evidence for why i shouldn't. for this i am extremely sorry, i was ignorant and have caused a lot of hurt and i fully accept the blame for that.

i am not a fan or "stan" of dream himself, have never supported him personally, and i don't have a twitter so was unaware of most of the controversies he's been involved in documented on there. i am not someone who willingly and knowingly supports antiblackness, antisemitism or anything else, and i do not in any way think it's acceptable to harass people or worse over something like minecraft youtube.

i was apparently sent a lot of asks, including some containing evidence (although i have a strict policy of not clicking links i'm sent because i can't trust them not to link to triggering or otherwise malicious content from experience, so i didn't get to see any of the most damning evidence until it was presented to me by sources i trust. this is a policy i'll be reassessing). i will defend myself for supposedly "cherrypicking" asks i receive on the grounds that i get so many asks every day that i have notifications turned off and do not check my askbox unless i am expecting an ask, so i only see asks if i've chosen to scroll through my activity feed and they show up there. i tend to skim my feed and ignore anything containing a threat or overly negative tone because usually it is just someone with too much free time trying to harass me for no good reason. this is also something i will be reassessing as it allowed me to stay ignorant for far too long. anyway, since i've been receiving a lot of questions both on here and privately over the past 24 hours asking me to address my "support for dream", i've actually had a reason to check my askbox and properly read the criticisms people have been sending me.

i don't and have never supported any harassment that dream or his friend's fans have participated in towards other people and do not believe that he is an "unproblematic" person who has nothing he needs to apologize for or be held accountable for. however i understand now that my sharing content related to his smp without any acknowledgement of the fact that its creator and some of his close friends have participated in and said things that i am as horrified by as anyone with common sense would be does create the impression that there is no need to hold these people accountable and that their behavior has and deserves no consequences. i am extremely sorry for this. it is entirely my fault for not listening until i was held accountable myself and forced to critically examine my interest by people i actually know.

to conclude, i will once again apologize that it took me this long and a lot of effort on other people's parts to be made aware of how significant the problems with dream and his community are. i ask for no forgiveness, only understanding that it was not done with malicious intent (although i understand that it had negative consequences nonetheless). i am not posting this with the intention of gaining sympathy. i'm just holding myself accountable for my mistakes. from here on out i will only be sharing fan content related to streamers i watch who are not involved in any controversy (or at least none that hasn't been satisfactorily addressed), and i may cease posting content about minecraft streamers altogether in future if i feel personally that even that is providing too much of a platform to dream and those associated closely with him.
