Literal Bookwyrm

Transbian dragonkin, author of fictions, early 20s. I love Locked Tomb, Our Flag Means Death, Warhammer, Xena: Warrior Princess, and 30s pulp novels. And dragons, I feel like I haven't mentioned the dragons yet.

We’re all familiar with this iconic panel:

But I don’t see enough people talking about the panels after it, where Samus says this:

She’s a little pervert I love her.

Everyone tell me what it's like to take estrogen and all the physical and mental effects. I want to know everything so I can be excited.

[goatgirlgocks]

my skin started softening instantly and only got softer with time

i became much calmer and happier day to day

my scent changed, i smell like a different person now

My emotions became stronger, i had my first sad and happy cries

I developed new erogenous zones

I have boobs and hips now

And im only 2 years in, I'm only gunna get hotter with time 😊

[estrogenesis-eeveeangelion]

my brain immediately started feeling like it was working with me instead of against me. blissful indescribable feeling of correctness and peace

it became easier to cry. at first it was almost excessive. no more emotions stuck in my face

weird, but, i freckle now where i used to be able to tan slightly, and certainly did not get freckles

i can no longer tolerate spicy food as well. i used to be able to order medium comfortably in any cuisine and now i struggle half the time with mild

i lost one inch in height

my skin is softer, my hair is softer

i smell like a woman. every part of me

boooooooooooooooooooooooooobs

i can now engage with my sexuality with joy and intention instead of needing to have an obligate orgasm every 12-24hrs to keep the demons at bay

depending when you count from, i gained between 50 and 90 pounds. pounds of woman

i just feel better. i swear. it is like The Vitamin

[lady-viccy]

my whole life it was as if i had felt emotions like looking out a dirty window and not realized it, now the window is open and not only are the colors more vivid, there's also smells and a breeze - everything is more real

[my-life-is-a-sidequest]

I feel more like myself

Hair got softer

Skin got softer

I'm a lot happier and more calm

I don't need alcohol to feel "normal"

I got new erogenous zones

I can get fullbody orgasms and usually 2-3 of them

I smell less and the smell is sweeter(?)

I've gained about 11 kilograms (20+ pounds)

I got a DD-cupsize (somehow...)

I'm more sensitive to smells, temperature and emotions

Lost 3cm of height

[strawberry-crocodile]

i cant believe i need to say this to other trans people but talking about amab genderqueer people as, like, irrevocably tainted by manhood even in long hair makeup and a dress does not stop being transphobic just because you mean it in an aspirational way

[strawberry-crocodile]

i want you to imagine a trans woman walking up to, like, an unshaved transmasc butch in khakis and a mens tshirt and telling him "i wish that i could dress like that and still be percieved as a woman, like you!" because the reverse is something that regularly happens

[derg-king]

BIG FUCKIN' DRAGON

Not a lesbian but I believe in their beliefs

[libertineangel]

What happened next will shock you!

[libertineangel]

Happy International Lesbian Day to eggs who are really sure they've thoroughly considered the possibility and definitely aren't transfem (which is kind of a shame because they relate to a lot of their experiences and also love & appreciate dykes and wish they could fit in with them)

[stellarvulpez]

give me your favorite quote by a marxist now its important

[pallasinine]

"Yes, everyone must be involved in the struggle for the sake of the common salvation. There are no clean hands, no innocent bystanders. We are all in the process of dirtying our hands in the quagmire of our soil and the terrifying void of our minds. Any bystander is a coward or a traitor." - Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth

[genkishoujo-deactivated20251211]

“The less you eat, drink, buy books, go to the theatre or to balls, or to the pub, and the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you will be able to save and the greater will become your treasure which neither moth nor rust will corrupt—your capital. The less you are, the less you express your life, the more you have, the greater is your alienated life and the greater is the saving of your alienated being.” ― Karl Marx, Economic & Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844

"Now U.S. imperialism is quite powerful, but in reality it isn't. It is very weak politically because it is divorced from the masses of the people and is disliked by everybody and by the American people too. In appearance it is very powerful but in reality it is nothing to be afraid of, it is a paper tiger. Outwardly a tiger, it is made of paper, unable to withstand the wind and the rain. I believe the United States is nothing but a paper tiger."

"Let the “socialist” snivellers croak, let the bourgeoisie rage and fume, but only people who shut their eyes so as not to see, and stuff their ears so as not to hear, can fail to notice that all over the world the birth pangs of the old, capitalist society, which is pregnant with socialism, have begun."

Lenin, Prophetic Words (1918)

“At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality.”

tier 1 media analysis: why did blorbo do that

tier 2 media analysis: what is the story communicating by setting things up so that blorbo would do that

tier 3 media analysis: what does it say about society that stories keep being set up in these ways

My lukewarm take for the day is that everyone should read stories with female main characters on a semi-regular basis.

[benevolentfalcon]

I wouldn't say I'm a lapsed cultist. I still accept the basic worldview--I believe that Cthulhu lies in R'lyeh in a deathlike sleep, I believe his Star-spawn shall one day cleanse the earth and usher in an age of shouting and killing and reveling in joy, yada yada--but I'm not, y'know, religious about it. Cthulhu has lied sleeping for, like, countless aeons, he's probably not waking up in my lifetime. I doubt giving up my Friday nights to chant "Cthulhu fhtagn" with a bunch of naked old guys in a basement is gonna wake him up any faster. I mean, if I ever have kids, I'll probably start going again, but that's more about teaching good morals.

[afriendlyirin]

I want Christians to understand that this is what you sound like to me.

[benevolentfalcon]

This is because I, a Christian, wrote it to make fun of Christians.

[hollowboobtheory]

I support the "fiction isn't real so nothing matters" mindset but tbf at a certain point it can tip over into "the curtains are just blue" territory

[hollowboobtheory]

like yes actually there is a conversation to be had about how a characters actions are framed and how they thematically fit with the rest of the story and it can in fact reflect the author's beliefs. some authors are even trying to make a point

[hollowboobtheory]

not all depiction is glorification but sometimes it is and you need to be able to tell the difference. not because your immortal soul will be tainted by reading The Bad One, but because you need to have reading comprehension skills

at the revolutionary council, patiently waiting as everyone else discusses matters like the expropriation of factories, reparations to colonized nations, how to suppress reaction without granting too much authority to the police or military, etc etc. only when I sense the time is right do I stand up and holler SUMPTUARY LAWS AGAINST BORING MENSWEAR

[maxknightley]

In the ideal republic, black and navy blue suits will be banned. Dark green suits are okay but you're on thin fucking ice. Paisley will be subsidized.
