Watching the process of this absolutely stunning painting makes it even more beautiful.

Well, well, well. If it isn't the consequences of someone else's actions that I am directly impacted and severely affected by
I never thought I would be siding with the popeās involvement in politics and cheering him on. I will say that.

Yes, you
Finding out Hans Zimmer is a transphobe genuinely had me falling to my knees
Thank you blastybaku for explaining this!/gen

i feel like the rest of that tweet should be shown:
World Health Organization staff remain āvigiliantā in the event of a nuclear incident
If this administration even looks funny at nuclear bombs, it's time to get a million people to descend on Washington and dispose of the lot of them. I'm sorry, but this is a line that CANNOT be crossed.
growing up as a cis girl the patriarchy told meĀ āyouāre a girl because of the way you were born, there is nothing you can do about this, you have no say in your genderā and i hated being a girl because it wasnāt my choice it was a prison and the trans community told meĀ āyouāre a girl because you say so, your view of yourself is the most important thing, if you change your mind that would be okā and it made me proud to be a girl and feel empowered in my gender and i wasnāt trapped anymore and then terfs come along and tell meĀ āyouāre a girl because of the way you were born, there is nothing you can do about this, you have no say in your gender (but like in a woke way)ā and they somehow expect me to be on their side?
if you respond with some terf shit im blocking you lmao
Iām so happy someone wrote this because I feel the same was as a cis girl. I felt pressured to be feminine and went full nlog because I felt too ugly and fat to be āfeminineā and I was in an academic setting where itās a nono. Then the trans community was so proud of their femininity it made me feel gratitude for being born a woman. Trans youtubers empowered me to buy my first skirts and dresses and I no longer felt āstupidā for doing it. I took another colleague that felt āstupidā for being feminine dress-shopping once and weāve been friends ever since and she now dresses up all the time and tries to feel cute and feminine and Iām so happy to see her like that. The trans community destigmatized being feminine for cis women more than any girlboss feminism Iāve seen and we owe it to trans women.
A trans woman was the one to make me realize I was a trans man. Iād always thought all girls hated being girls, that being born female was a terrible curse we all just had to endure. And then I met a trans women who was so, so fucking excited to be able to wear skirts and cute tops and makeup at last, after years of fighting for the right to get on HRT. I saw the pure joy she felt as she did a little twirl in a skirt and I realised being female isnāt bad. Itās not bad at all. Iām just not female. And I can experience that joy, too. And then I got my HRT and my voice dropped and I got hairy and I learned what it was to be happy with your gender. It took seeing a joyful trans woman twirling in a skirt for that to happen for me.
Thank you trans women.
I feel like this also might be relevant.
Iām trans but there is a special joy I experience when cis people experience what gender euphoria feels like, how fun it is to adjust your expession even if you identify with the gender you were assigned at birth. Cis people unlocking gender+ is so good because it shows how the trans experience can enrich lives and just⦠spread joy and happiness <3. Stuff like this makes me happy
And in a great mobius double reacharound in return cis people dressing/expressing themselves by not confirming to gender stereotypes also helps trans people who canāt pass or donāt want to including butch/masc trans lesbians and femme/girly trans men <3
[ID: A screenshot of a twitter thread by @/JoCat105 which reads: āthe understanding of ātrans people donāt need to āpassā to be considered the gender they areā made me realize that wait a minute if trans people donāt need to pass, cis people donāt either right? and that has helped me explore myself so much without fear of not being a ārealā man
i guess what Iām saying is kind of thank you for all the trans folks who encourage being who you are in spite of what society tells you. I know itās not the same with cis people, but itās at least helped me feel more comfortable in my own skin. yall are good role modelsā /End ID]
It makes me deeply sad when cis people put their resentment at their own gender onto trans people who experience euphoria for having the same gender. I love getting to see cis people doing the exact opposite of that. I think everyone benefits from examining their gender and finding what makes them euphoric, from realizing there are no rules and seeing that not as a destruction of their experiences but as an oppurtunity to construct a more healthy self conception. If being a woman doesnt require resenting being a woman, is that not permission to free yourself from the resentment, a freedom to love yourself and your gender with reckless abandon? I hope more cis people can learn this lesson. I know its one I have imparted to people in my life, and benefitted from when I received it.
I cannot begin to express how beneficial it has been to my comfort and happiness in my own gender to know and speak to and see and hear and be in the presence of trans people.
Nobody showed me how to love or enjoy my masculinity until trans men did. I didnāt even know that āenjoyingā it was an option! *gestures at gender* You mean this fucking thing is more than just a set of imposed requirements I get to feel bad about failing to live up to? I didnāt realize until later how fucking lonely it had felt to be a man who had been assigned his gender without being taught how to think about it.
I owe a debt of gratitude to trans people, to trans writers, to trans artists and activists, because their experiences helped me finally see myself as a man for more than just the amino acid accidents in my cells.
Trans people and trans thought has helped liberate me from oppression in my own gender, I donāt know a world where I donāt have a moral duty to push for their liberation in kind.
MEXICO WIN!!! FUCK AI!!!
you know those studies showing that cursing helps with pain tolerance or whatever. thatās how i feel about making my weird little noises to get through my basic daily activities. sometimes you just have to go hggblaaaah for a minute so you can find the strength within yourself to get up or wash the dishes or send an email. mmmnneh. urgh. the torments are unending but you can always make some little sounds about it.
