twerfs seem to think trans women can't understand the anxious unease they say they feel around "amabs" as if a lot of us don't experience that with everyone on the planet besides other trans women
my friends you're not the only ones with oppressors lol. must be nice to apparently feel safe around half the population tho!
fundamentally twerfs seem not to actually believe any other axis of oppression besides "sex-based oppression" actually exists

ive invented (note: dubious claim) something i call the bear diet which is mostly fruits and vegetables with fish as the main protein source and something like once a month you eat a few hyperprocessed foods of your liking because that is when you, the bear, raid a dumpster in the suburbs
after the hyperprocessed foods, do you take tranquilizers to simulate getting captured by animal control and returned to the wild?
i would settle for melatonin gummies but well. knock yourself out

Capitalism is going to deal itself out of existence, but before it does that, you're gonna pay $50 for a latte, because inflation is going to impoverish all of us before people get pissed off enough to realize that all of the last hundred years of economic progress was actually a shell game to create billionaires, while the great masses of people saw their standard of living eroded and destroyed.

Roman drinking vessel (?), 1st century AD
Pottery model of a boat resting on four legs, with projections at the bow (restored), stern, and on each side; at the prow is a spout, perhaps for drinking; covered with olive-green/brown glaze.
im just so happy i live in a time period where actual meaningful biological transition is possible. even if we lose rights or the ability to exist in public, nothing can turn back the clock on that, and just by having any sort of access to that our lives are made immensely better. millions of our sisters throughout history would never have dreamed of a day where they could have what HRT does for us.
please don't lose the plot of this. if you're a trans person on HRT you're a living miracle, the dream of hundreds of millions of your ancestors. your lives are all deeply meaningful no matter what anyone says.
A prayer by Kalonymus b. Kalonymus ben Meir that appears in his poem ספר אבן בוחן, יג Sefer Even Boḥan (§13), describing the author's wish t
Cursed be the one who announced to my father: “It’s a boy!"... ...How could he twist the course of the stars so much? How could he have erred so in his astrology? A lying tongue, a fool’s mouth it had given him For he foolishly transformed justice to poison He altered the law and transposed the lines
Oh, but had the artisan who made me created me instead – a worthy woman... ...I would say "how lucky am I"
Father in heaven who did miracles for our ancestors with fire and water... ...Who would then transform me from a man to woman? Were I only to have merited this being so graced by goodness...
What shall I say? why cry or be bitter? If my father in heaven has decreed upon me and has maimed me with an immutable deformity then I do not wish to remove it. the sorrow of the impossible is a human pain that nothing will cure and for which no comfort can be found. So, I will bear and suffer until I die and wither in the ground. Since I have learned from our tradition that we bless both, the good and the bitter I will bless in a voice hushed and weak: blessed are you [HaShem] who has not made me a woman.
I think I'm gonna go lay down for a little while.

Wish I could send this to the person in the comments of a post a few weeks ago that was telling me I needed to un-learn my colonial ideas because I think we shouldn't farm animals....
In WWI, a tradition in German regiments was to photograph the tallest and shortest member of the regiment side by side. These photos were then often sold as postcards.
I love how in most of these the tall person looks happy or neutral and the short person looks like they're considering the consequences of killing the camera man
can i be real for a moment and say i find it really frustrating that whenever advocating for veganism or going plant-based in general you have to be especially careful to make sure to highlight you understand every possible exception that may exist in a way you're just not expected to do with other industries. like obviously i know not everyone has the means to go plant-based for a variety of reasons such as where they live, potentially restrictive allergies, limited resources, necessary medications etc etc. but i know this is true for other things as well. like i advocate against buying clothes new especially from cheap fast fashion brands. but people seem so much less likely to assume that i'm like, mad at anyone who doesn't have the means to buy second-hand or ethically produced clothes. it seems like no one actually wants you to talk about your ethical stance on food and it's on you even if you actually just answer people when they ask you why you're not eating something. likee people have so much more understanding for religious restrictions in diets than a restriction you came to yourself upon evaluation of what industries you want to support. i am already super conscious of the fact that just talking about my day-to-day choices with food or in any way mentioning that certain foods are not options to me risks someone getting mad at me including my friends. it's exhausting and i wish you wouldn't.
oh i just realized something bonkers about my worldbuilding = my life again lol

A rich exploration of the everyday lives of Jews in medieval Ashkenaz that demonstrates the value of collaborative research, Beyond the Elite effectively portrays Jewish communities as deeply connected with medieval Christian society, while also emphasizing how Jews sought to differentiate themselves or adapt Christian practices to their own tradition.
