not nearly enough people are fuming about the cass review. do you understand the eventual implications? trans people in the uk will be considered children up until the age of 25, and denied HRT/surgery/even basic measures like legal name change and social transition. all owing to a biased and largely unscientific study. you know what “treatment” for gender dysphoria is recommended by the review instead? conversion therapy.
this will kill people and they know it, because they prefer us dead and out of sight. the government, the NHS and even the opposition have made this clear again and again. a twenty-five year old can have sex, get married have children, join the military, earn a living, be halfway up the corporate ladder or highly successful in their chosen career field by that age, but they can’t transition under NHS rules. this is a death sentence for trans teenagers and they are going ahead with it. it’s trans genocide, same as across the pond.
i’m so afraid for my trans siblings and our futures. i’m so scared for myself. what are we to do if not even the party that is supposed to be on the “left” gives a shit about our safety and mental health as long as they get voted in? labour have become tories with a red coat of paint. it all feels hopeless
Hard pill to swallow, maybe, but sometimes you are the problem. You may not have been initially, but people around you can only have so much endurance for understanding why you're "like that" and how you got to where you are now. Even if you were the one who was victimized, hurt, or abused to begin with, your behavior affects those around you. There's a point at which personal responsibility needs to kick in, or you will become toxic. You can become toxic even if you never become an abuser yourself. If other people are constantly having to help dig you out of the holes you made but you keep slapping their hands away, you cannot expect them to have an indefinite amount of patience and energy to keep trying. If you're not putting in the work to recover from what damaged you; if everyone else in your life is consistently the only one making a real effort to effect change for you--you're the problem.

The sun will keep rising. It’s Melanie King Monday.
Painted a bit of a tribute for this beautiful gem of a game by @blacktabbygames... it's not only a deeply existential horror dating sim, but, it also allows you to indifinitely annoy @jonnywaistcoat !
We are ineffably elated to confirm that Good Omens will return for a third season! This calls for a round of hot chocolate and sweet treats!

And May The Screams You Ignored Haunt You Every Night:
This was a choice.
A choice of complacency.
A choice to ignore.
A choice to be willfully ignorant.
We funded it.
We cheered for it in our actions, or lack thereof.
And if there is anyone to blame, it is us.
It is our fault for not taking our power back.
It is our fault for choosing to value material items over the welfare of our fellow humans.
It is our fault for not demanding more.
“Why only Palestine?”, they ask.
“Why don’t you focus on problems in your own backyard?”
Palestine is our backyard.
Palestine is the litmus test, for if we didn’t fund the fascism in Palestine, we ourselves would be free.
If we didn’t find Israel, we ourselves would have basic human rights.
If we didn’t elect the corrupt, the world would not be the military industrial complex’s playground.
If we reclaimed our power, our elected officials would work for us, and not their next lobby check.
We chose this.
We choose it with every dollar we spend, every piece of media we consume, and with every scream we ignore.
