i wonder if anyones blocked my main thinking it has a 'map' pride flag pfp (its a disability pride flag in the background but it has kind of unfortunate cropping i realise)
i miss vent
sys culture is long travel being really easy. what do you mean you can't sit on a 12 hour train, just shut your brain off when you get bored
.
Went on a blocking spree because I found someone who expressed their desire to see trans men killed, and I decided that anyone who condoned that and other posts of theirs shouldn't have easy access to me; a trans man who would like to not be dead.
Idk if this'll do much, but if you're a blog (especially in stimblr, editblr, etc. But honestly I'd love to just have any kind of mutual that is a kind person at heart) that is actually safe for all trans people to engage with and you're willing, I'd love if you could interact with this post so I can maybe follow you. It's easy to get in your own head sometimes and feel that you're truly unwanted and unvalued, and I both need and would love the reminder that the common person out there doesn't wish harm on others. I like using this blog as a stress relief from my own ongoing issues in life and I hate feeling like it's being taken from me because tumblr is becoming more and more unsafe for queer people.
Transphobes and queerphobes that may attempt to interact with this post in bad faith will be swiftly blocked and their interaction will be hidden or deleted.
I'm about to follow you but first I have to obnoxiously wave this around because you're right and you should say it.
bubba ho-tep (2002) is a film about how getting the right mobility aid can change your life. it can, for instance, enable you to fight a mummy
I almost didn’t reblog this. But giving people a block list is important so they can protect themselves.
For accessibility, would someone mind posting their urls so it’s easier to block them?
yeah i can do that:

i miss running/working out so much tbh? like it was never even that great to me, i just miss the ability to do it for a long time + whenever i want. degenerative illnesses fr have you saying you have "wasted youth" at 21 💔
has anyone written about autism and layers of locution meanings. like. i only have a little bit of understanding of this but i really dont think "autistic people take things literally" cuts it or is accurate a lot of the time but "autistic people tend to understand locutionary meanings rather than illocutionary meanings" seems to immediately explain a lot more
basically like if you say "do you have any lemonade" the locutionary meaning is asking if the listener is in possession of lemonade. the locutionary act is a request for information
but thats not actually what is meant when someone says that
when you say "do you have any lemonade" the illocutionary meaning is "i would like some lemonade, do you have some you can share with me?" and the illocutionary act is requesting that the listener share some of their lemonade
i think a lot of autistic people hear the locution and go yes i have lemonade. and then dont perform the intended perlocutionary act which is to share their lemonade. and then the speaker gets pissed lmao
people have in fact written a lot about this topic, yes! i wrote a long tumblr post about this a while back, which you can find here if you're interested, but basically: there's been a lot of studies that suggest autistic people struggle with implied requests like these. if you want to do some digging, you should find plenty of results by searching for papers on autism and implicature; scholars in this field i think tend to use that term more often (maybe because they're more interested in the content of speech than in speech acts themselves).
i love being auto and plural. more of me to love <3
i WILL get TESTOSTERONE... i WILL get TOP SURGERY... i WILL get BOTTOM SURGERY... i WILL grow a BEARD... i WILL get HAIRY... i WILL PASS... i WILL gain WEIGHT... i WILL change my NAME... i WILL buy CLOTHES from the man's section... i WILL go to the man's RESTROOM... my partner WILL call me their BOYFRIEND... my kids WILL call me their DAD... i WILL grow OLD and HAPPY... i WILL- ... i WILL- ... i-...
the main reason i am such an active advocate for trans solidarity and trans unity is precisely because i know from experience how much adopted radfem ideas hurts the trans community.
i used to hate myself for being a trans man! i used to believe i wasn't truly oppressed despite the very real transandrophobia i faced! i used to make "i hate all men too don't worry im sorry for my fellow men" jokes! and it made me fucking feel like shit!
as an older and wiser man, i now know the difference between productive discussions of misogyny, and straight up radfem bootlicking!
if i can find at least one trans boy like i was and help them unlearn what i thought as a baby trans, i would be the happiest man alive
I used to say and believe stuff like this and it made me feel like shit. I started to resent my own masculinity and almost detransitioned because I felt so evil for being a man.
If you’re feeling how I used to please know that masculinity is not a cursed or bad thing. Masculinity can be beautiful and healthy. Do not let anyone make you feel bad for being a man. Feminism is not men=bad, that’s rad fem shit.

This petition alone might not be enough, but everything we can throw at this counts.

what abled ppl think is a massive problem for disabled folks: 13 year old on the internet faking something
what is actually a massive problem for disabled folks: "well you don't LOOK disabled, are you sure you're not faking? I'm not giving you accommodations until you PROVE you're not faking. Please give me, a stranger, your medical info and explain your condition to me in detail so I know you're not faking and only then will I respect or take you seriously"
Can we stop using "still lives with their parents" or "unemployed" or "doesn't have a drivers license" or "didn't graduate high school" as an insult or evidence that someone is a bad person? Struggling with independence or meeting milestones is not a moral failing.
The way most autism literature describes "literal interpretation" is often not at all similar to how I experience it. Teenage me even thought I couldn't be autistic because I've always been able to learn metaphors easily.
In fact, I love wordplay of all kinds. Teenage me was fascinated to learn all the types of figurative language there are in poetry and literature.
But paperwork and questionnaires are hard, because there's so much they don't state clearly. Or they don't leave room for enough nuance.
"List all the jobs you've had, with start and end dates." What if I don't remember the exact day or month? Is the year enough?
"Have you been suffering from blurred vision?" Well, if I take off my glasses the whole world is blurred, but I'm fairly sure that's not what the intake form at the optometrist is asking.
Or the infamous (and infuriatingly stereotypical) "Would you rather go to a library or a party?" What sort of party? Where? Who's there? I work at a library. Am I currently at the library for work or pleasure? Does it have a good collection?
It's not common figures of speech that confound me. It's ambiguity, in situations that aren't supposed to be ambiguous.
