you have to be kinder to people with memory issues.

you have to be kinder to people who are slow processors.

you have to be kinder to people who don't understand your jokes.

you have to be kinder to people who forget important dates.

you have to be kinder to people with cognitive decline.

you have to be kinder to people who were always this way, too.

you have to be kind. you have to be kind.

It’s the free market: A greater supply is produced only for greater demand. You only see greater supply produced for small demand in command economies or when someone is manipulating the market to take an enormous financial loss for strategic purposes.

[sunder-the-gold]

ALSO: This is why it is VITAL that you engage with someone who produces fanart or fanfiction that you enjoy. You HAVE to make them feel seen and appreciated. You HAVE to tell them anything in particular that you liked about their art. It gives them fuel to keep doing it.

Older women are so, so beautiful, and older trans women are no exception. Celebrate the beauty of our elders! Celebrate trans beauty!

I wanted to share some more of these, specifically trans women of color. The images I'm posting are from a project called To Survive On This Shore and it's an interview project. I am only posting a handful so it's so worth checking out!

This is Linda, 60

Alexis, 64

Helena, 63

Kendrah, 72 (!!)

Tasha, 65

It was deeply healing to me to discover this project. The site has selected photos and attached interviews and it's definitely worth your time. I didn't include any because the focus of this post imo is transfems but there are a lot of beautiful interviews with transmasc people too if you're interested! But that'll have to be another post 💖

for those interested, the photographer is Jess T. Dugan. The link to this particular project is as follows:

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Question 1/3

What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?

under 18, AI is a net positive

under 18, AI is a net negative

18-29, AI is a net positive

18-29, AI is a net negative

30-45, AI is a net positive

30-45, AI is a net negative

46-60, AI is a net positive

46-60, AI is a net negative

over 60, AI is a net postive

over 60, AI is a net negative

Remaining time: 6 days 9 hours

[odyver]

Question 2/3

How often do you visit or interact with museums/archives (whether in person or online)?

Frequently (multiple times per month)

Often (multiple times per year)

Occasionally (a couple times per year)

Rarely (once every couple of years)

Never :(

Remaining time: 6 days 9 hours

[odyver]

Question 3/3

If you saw a museum was using AI in exhibits, marketing, research, etc., would you be more or less inclined to visit that museum?

under 18, more inclined

under 18, less inclined

18-29, more inclined

18-29, less inclined

30-45, more inclined

30-45, less inclined

46-60, more inclined

46-60, less inclined

over 60, more inclined

over 60, less inclined

Remaining time: 6 days 9 hours

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

managed to catch up on some bills with previous help received (tysm)! so i want to focus on paying this older cshapp borrow off, as it was for rent to the small cult im stuck in. it was $860 originally, $805.48 left to fully pay it off. honestly must pay asap, considering early june im going to have to pay other urgent monthly bills like normal. id rather not be late on that like last time, especially since i still need to get litter liners & food too. anything helps & i appreciate it.

ca vn kofi bmac gfm throne paylinks

june is both pride & my birth month, id rly love to not be as stressed/behind on bills if possible. im continuously trying to get work as well.

[transgenders]

$574.26 left to pay on the borrow. storage is past due but (for now) still $57. two loan debt repymts of $69.34 (June 8th) & $218.11 (June 12th). i only need like $4 more to pay storage on time but everything else listed here still very desperate & urgent to pay off. im recovering from heat exhaustion currently from walking 9+ miles. any $ appreciated—ty for the help, love & support 🫂.

Hey, hey, look me in the eyes when I tell you this okay? The whole "do trans women or trans men have it worse?" debate going on right now is the most obvious CIA bullshit on earth cause honestly we've both got it pretty shitty and fighting each other isn't helping anyone

[dark-spirit-tamamoland]

they're still terming random transfems as i type this i see which does make quite a statement doing this today specifically

[puppetstuffing]

watched three girls who reblogged its new blog mutual aidpost (made literally 15 minutes ago) already disappear from its notifs. transfems are not included in their pride :/

[puppetedlove]

[tamamowand]

QUITE the statement to be nuking transfems at the current accelerated pace right at the start of pride month like this, isn't it

lambyland goes too hard i made an oc for it. help.

i am not confined to twitter's character limit here SO

some bonus bits that i couldn't fit - her general outfit is from a limited summer event and has it on all the time, however she does swap out for seasonal items/outfits when she can - as it's implied her parents are negelctful and spoil her to "make up" for it. if you know this arg let it be known after she prayed she got Extreme helicopter parents to a concerning degree - absolute spoiled sweetie. would absolutely give away items if her friends asked cause most of the time she wasn't using them. the only exception to this was seasonal items or rare items she only had 1 of. dupes she'd give away. - absolutely would log on after school and go to her friends like "hai!!!!!1!" - big emoji user, big fan of spamming the heart one all the time - didn't believe the stories about a ghost and thought it was a dumb story being spread around by the older players at first - do not ask this girl if she has any coins, she does not. she spent it on new furniture/clothes already - hard to tell in the picture but the pigtails are supposed to look like angel wings jKJND
