Pro-tip to young trans guys:
If a stranger misgenders you, please please please do not ever utter the phrase, “I’m a man.” It sounds very unnatural and immediately sounds overly defensive.
My advice? Just look at the person like they’re an idiot and, in the deepest voice possible, say, “Uh. Alright, then.”
Just act as though they made a huge and obvious mistake, and don’t get flustered. If you’re comfortable with it, handle the situation with humor and say something like, “Man, I know I’ve got a babyface, but I didn’t think it was that bad.”
Me: *Removes my cat from my lap to do something else.*
My cat: Father is...evil? Father is unyielding? Father is incapable of love? I am running away. I am packing my little rucksack and going out to explore the world as a lone vagabond. I can no longer thrive in this household.
Please reblog, this is so important.

This is painful. I have no words..
As of twelve hours ago!
several months ago when we were unhoused tumblr rejected my attempt to blaze a fundraising post (twice). i have despised staff ever since and their advertising gimmicks fill me with rage. if they also fills you with rage, consider helping us DIY blaze this post so we can pay rent next month.
my partner was hired for a contract position around the new year after doing hours of unpaid training for this company, and has yet to be given any actual work or hours. i sell art and apparel online. you can also refer to our other donation post here
we are very much trying but are both struggling. ty to everyone who helped us so far, youre keeping our autistic asses alive
my partner is hedwwig on CA VM & PP
