it/xe/that/she • queer enban • mad + ill cw/tw for unreality, oddcore, occasional nsft 18+ • 27y/o, previously reallivingthing also have side blogs so probably interacting or following for those youtube.com/ryedignan
currently minimizing my social media experience, activity might be sparse and spammy.
add me on storygraph and letterboxd
find my art on instagram @/arosecrayonbox my art blog @rose-makes or here on kofi. find my drag on instagram @/sourdo3
I have other blogs - I probably followed for a sideblog
online 'activism' without real world action is useless - mutual aid saves lives.
only real transfeminism here, not radfem apologia. all transphobes, exorsexists, and intersexists get what they deserve. yeah, even you.
anti-war hippie at heart. fellow humans first, always.
im Rye, this blog is my main and will have everything that doesn’t fit into my sideblogs. i was born in ‘98, there is adult oriented content here sometimes, so 18+ only and browse with caution.
it/xe/that/she pronouns exclusively. no gender, only fag. transitioned x2. maverique, femmedyke.
multiply ill both mentally and physically, and that plays a part in my every day life. diagnosed autistic as an adult. also very queer and very ethically non-monogamous with 1 lovely boyfriend, 2 play partners, and my fiancé @dandelionjeri .
tags i use frequently are ‘#shitpost’ for shitposts, ‘#ri speaks’ for my thoughts and original content, ‘#people’ for photos of others, '#art' - self explanatory, ‘#craft’ for stuff about witchcraft, '#wide lens' + '#digicam" for various photo diaries, ‘#nsft’ + ‘#nsft text’ for nsfw content ,''#a very me' for content I find relatable, and '#me' + ‘#my face’ for pictures of myself
if you feel you might need to blacklist some stuff to browse this blog safely, here’s an easy to navigate list of recommended tags/phrases to block.
here is a masterlist of all of my blogs, only a couple are not listed.
i came out as trans when i was 10 (2008), stopped being shoved in the closet by family around 13, and i started physically transitioning with HRT when I was 15 in Sept/Oct 2014. I am no contact with my family now. I have suspicions that I might be intersex, but I started physical transition so early in some ways it's hard to tell now, so really there's no way for me to truly know.
got my first gender affirming surgery Nov,8 2016, and have continued with a few more. currently working on getting my last scheduled as soon as possible.
Per my experience growing up trans in the 2000s/2010s, a lot of the discourse today is exponentially tiring, and I will always take more of a ‘leave everyone alone or get along’ and neutral stance. we have to actively listen to others experiences in order to get somewhere with conversations surrounding discourse, which is something most tend to forget. You won’t find me using terms like AFAB/AMAB/TME/TMA on this blog for that reason- they’re just further ways to categorize trans people by birth sex and not lived experience; nor will I be gatekeeping terms like transmisogyny and transandrophobia. I’d like to bring back the days where asking someone’s assigned sex could get you punched.
i’d love to engage with fellow genderfucked adults, in both sfw and nsft terms! consent and communication is key, I use RACK. I am T4T, fagdyke4dykefag, and nb4nb.
I don’t have a dni because they are virtually unenforceable on tumblr, but I will liberally block folks I’m uncomfortable with and encourage you to block me if you’re uncomfortable with my interaction.

The above is a video shared by smrchildsadness on Twitter, showing a person participating in a pride parade exchanging a pride flag with a person standing on his (am using his pronoun based on the TikToks/Tweets of what happened) doorway who had a Portuguese flag. There are sounds of cheers and crying and the two people hug each other as they exchange the flags. The man at the doorway then waved kisses to the crowd within the pride parade.
The Tweet says: "NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HE WAS WAVING THE PORTUGUESE FLAG BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HAVE A PRIDE FLAG AND THEY TRADED FLAGS AND HE'S SO EMOTIONAL TO GET HIS OWN PRIDE FLAG I'M EMOTIONALLY RUINED"
For context, apparently they were worried that maybe he's a nationalist because he was waving the Portuguese flag and some nationalists opposing the pride march were waving that flag. But upon interacting with him, it turns out he didn't have have a pride flag and he wanted to wave *a* flag in support of the pride march. So they had an exchange and now he has his own pride flag 😭🥹.
The image above is a Tweet by kunwara_ladkaa that says "I'm crying so much right now (Image taken by Manuel Fernando Araújo/Lusa)". The image shows the same man from the pride parade crying as he hugs his new pride flag.
The above image is a Tweet by dudz_zZzz that says "ainda não parei de pensar nele," which according to Google translate from Portuguese to English is "I still haven't stopped thinking about him." The image is a drawing of the person from the pride parade, crying as he hugs his new pride flag.
If you actually believed queer was a real slur you would never use it like that. Can you genuinely say you would say "fuck you tr***y" or "Fuck you n***er" and mean it under any circumstance? You know as well as I do that censoring a few letters doesn't actually mean you didn't deliberately call me a slur.
The message is clear. The intent is clear. Either you don't think queer is a real slur or you genuinely believe you just used hate speech on par with "fuck you trannies, you have done nothing but ruin LGBT rights and dignity" and not in jest in any way.
So bigoted liar or deliberate hate speech, which is it?
this person is acting like people are stripping naked and doing doggy in front of children. im sorry but seeing someone with a paci clip or a leash on is not the same as full frontal nudity and intercourse and you canNOT equate them.
i identified as a butch for a bit! I changed my mind because in my case it was me trying to avoid wanting to be something I wasn't sure I COULD be! did you "lose" something when I, a trans woman, decided to present more femme?
if every cis butch woman in the world became a trans man right now, that would be an unambiguously, inarguably good and positive thing, because that would be people choosing to live the lives they wanted as the kinds of people they wanted to be, end of statement. personal autonomy isn't something to bitch over!
