My money don’t jingle jangle

It’s old

I like to see you wiggle waddle

Cause you’re old

(This is a post about how old things don’t work well)

Do all the cheesy romantic things, I promise I'll love it. Hug me from behind, kiss me in the rain, pull me into your arms when I'm least expecting it, dance with me under the stars. I'll love every moment of it. I long for the moments I've read about in books for years

“But isn’t all food bad for you? I’ve been eating lasagna and muffins for 40 years and I feel terrible.”

I wish I could remember things from my childhood or most of my teen years. It honestly really bothers me that I can’t. It’s like I blocked everything out subconsciously at some point and I can’t get the memories back.

The depression project

[cancelthelacroix]

I finally decided that I’m going to get top and bottom surgery. I never thought I would, but I’ve faced my demons and realized this is what’s right for me. It’s something that’s been secretly eating at me for the past few years, and I just want to be comfortable in my body once and for all. Wish me luck on this journey, I know it won’t be easy.

My toxic trait is watching shows about cute couples when I miss Bee, and in turn making myself really sad.

[transandrophobiatruther]

The narrative that a "real" trans person would have shown "signs" of being trans at a young age really needs to die. How do you even measure that? A lot of kids didn't have the opportunity to experiment outside of assigned gender roles, sometimes because they didn't know it was a possibility, sometimes because they weren't allowed to. Even if a child expressed discomfort in their assigned gender, a parent or other adult may have forced them to suppress it, or may deny that it ever happened at all. A good number of trans people also lean heavily into gender stereotypes and gender norms prior to coming out in attempt to suppress it themselves, even if no one in their life has forced them to do so. Also...people change. Gender can be fluid. Maybe as a kid you felt content with your assigned gender at birth, but grew uncomfortable with it as you grew older. There is no way to measure or prove that someone is trans.

There'll be a moment when you realise you're 27 when yesterday you were just 17; and you wouldn't be able to tell how a decade passed away and your life got divided into before and afters. The fury of youth will subdue and nothing will really change but everything will feel different when you look at old photographs and blurry videos taken on cheap mobile phones. Scents will remind you of childhood and certain friends you don't talk to anymore, hangouts will become reunions and mom's burnt pie will become the best food you ever had. And I know on some days you won't be able to show anything of those 10 years but I hope you remember to breathe, and let go of the knot in your chest. I hope you go out in the sun and live a little, because tomorrow is 37.

So true

[cancelthelacroix]

I love Bee so much. So excited to spend the rest of my life with them. They’re so thoughtful, kind, empathetic, beautiful, intelligent, hard working, and just an all around spectacular person that deserves every good thing possible in this world.

I stg I can’t do anything fun anymore. I’m just an old person with a panic disorder now.

I don’t think it’s fully possible to embrace nonbinary people until you stop thinking of men as the opposite of women and of masculinity negative femininity and vice versa. Like. Honestly it was a ridiculous belief to begin with, we’re not an incredibly sexually dymorphic species to begin with and men and women (even cis men and women!) are far more similar than different. Until you stop thinking of men and women as inherent opposites you can never accept bigender people or people who combine masculinity and femininity or people who hold manhood in some ways and womanhood in others. And honestly it’s a kind of heteronomative viewpoint anyway
