you have to stay alive. you're going to be such a beautiful middle aged freak. young freaks will see you in the street and know that things can be okay.
i think we as queers may have fallen off a bit when we changed our messaging to "trans men are men, trans women are women, non-binary people are non-binary, we're just like you, we can be quiet and docile about our genders if you want" as opposed to "it's my choice what i do with my body; fuck off"
why are we trying to assimilate ourselves into a system that is rotten from the roots? patriarchy doesn't fucking work. "trans men are our oppressors because they're men" throw yourself into the sun
hormones should be available over the counter at every single pharmacy in the world being trans fucking rocks actually. why should i have to be gentle and silent about that shit when it's cool as fuck. anti-trans politicians should be getting shit thrown at them when they harp on about how much of a threat we are
we gotta go back to being loud as fuck. being counterculture as shit is inherent to being queer when the culture you live in insists on tamping down queerness
this is your daily reminder to not be ashamed of making your life easy for yourself.
cut your food into small pieces, make the font size 30 on your e book, use straws to drink, get a pen that’s comfortable to hold, take more naps, walk slowly, buy velcro shoes, re-watch the part you couldn’t understand the first time, write things on your hands so you don’t forget it… whatever you want and/or need
don’t let anyone tell you how you should be doing things. we don’t need to prove each other anything
ok so now that finnster's come out as genderfluid and started taking hrt, can we stop trying to force people to choose labels and define their identity? everyone's always talking about support for queer people with unconventional presentations and identities but when someone's not sure about what their gender identity actually is, they get criticized for it. finn said in his video that part of the reason why he took so long with coming out was because he wasn't sure what label actually applied to him (and he still isn't even sure if genderfluid feels like the right label for him) and the debate surrounding it was making him uncomfortable. which kind of sucks tbh.
