Help A Trans Man Avoid Homelessness.

I hate to have to do this, but my current situation gives me no other choice.

Hi. My name is Leo, and I'm an 18 y/o trans man who's going to get kicked out the second I accidentally piss off my parents. I need money to afford an apartment & associated expenses so that I can get somewhere to live before I end up homeless. My parents have threatened to call the cops on me, kick me out and force me into the women's shelter, and take away almost all of my possessions, including the cell phone that I bought with my own money and pay for myself. I could be homeless at any moment, and it's scary as hell.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could spare even a dollar or two and buy me a ko-fi. I'm going through ko-fi since they don't take a fee, and I need all the help I can get. Every cent helps.

Even if you can't or won't donate, please signal boost this. I hate asking other people for money, but I have no other choice.

Thanks for your time.

having been on tumblr for 10 solid years without ever leaving and now watching all these people come crawling back in after scorning it all this time makes me feel like a haughty king on a throne but also the court jester but also the castle itself but also the alligators in the moat because alligators are really cool

Some day I want to see a show that does the “no filler episodes” thing from the opposite direction. Just a whole season worth of low-stakes character pieces that seem to move the overall story absolutely nowhere, then episode 26 pulls all the triggers at once and this massive Rube Goldberg machine of a plot the show’s been quietly setting up in the background the whole time hits you like a truck.

The implication that these people think “human” doesn’t include nonbinary people is telling.

Friendly reminder that the words man and woman are not related in English. As in, woman did not take the word man and add ‘wo’ to it.

Man started out as werman in old English, and woman started out as wīfman. The ‘man’ bit in both of these words means person. The ‘wer’ bit in werman gave us words like ‘werewolf’ - literally man-wolf. The ‘wīf’ part eventually became the word ‘wife’. Over time the word man lost the ‘wer’ bit and the word ‘wīfman’ eventually morphed into the word woman.

This is a linguistics speed run, but it’s why those terfy things with the word man crossed out are so ridiculous to me. Like where they go “woman” “human” etc. Because they love to ignore that the word man existing in any context is not a threat to them.

They even did this to cities like Manchester, England, claiming that the word ‘man’ in Manchester referred to men. It actually refers to breasts. The river Irwell in Manchester used to be known to the Celts as ‘Mamm’, meaning breast and probably relating to a river goddess. The Romans got there, asked the locals what they call it, and then added ‘castrum’, for fort. As the Romans built a fort down in modern day Castlefield. Mammcastrum became Manchester over time.

So yeah, I don’t even trust benign popular feminist ‘activism’ that goes around performatively removing the word man from things, because most often, it has nothing to do with the gender of man, and it just a word that happens to include those three letters. Yknow. Instead of helping vulnerable women, TERFs love to pretend they’re doing something smart by editing words with man in them.

Ramble over but that’s my ten cents

[dragonfrost-system]

all very good info but can we go back to the part where Manchester means BREAST FORT???!

[eroticcannibal]

So I was looking for some PIV critical takes cus like. I feel a lot of u would enjoy dunking on those cus it is absolutely worse than even kink criticals but look who I found making the most unhinged take

I sincerely encourage PIV criticals to seek medical assistance and pick better sex partners. This is not normal.

(Its also just false to say these things are not painful for the "guy". Penises can also develop health problems that result in painful sex. No matter who you are, if you are EVER experiencing unintended pain during sex that can't be chalked up to like, "oh im drier than expected grab the lube" or "ow I got a cramp" or other obvious and easily resolved causes, please see a medical proffesional immediately. That is not normal or expected and could be a sign of a serious health issue.)

[eroticcannibal]

Yknow what actually no im gonna get angry at this because this is incredibly dangerous.

This shit should not hurt you. If it is hurting and you are not intentionally doing something to cause that pain, there is a damn problem and you need to pay some fucking attention! Do NOT fucking normalise this shit!

Either you have a shitty fucking partner who is putting you at risk or there is a damn problem.

Especially the fucking blow job one im. Look. I suck a lot of dick. This is something I enjoy. Now u fuckers know I enjoy pain but I do NOT fuck around with throats ok? Sure I've developed a gag reflex now but deepthroating never hurts. IF IT HURTS YOU REALLY SHOULD STOP IMMEDIATELY. Do you all remember that guy ok twitter who ended up in hospital? Dont be that guy. Deepthroating is a skill that very few ppl are born with (I am just blessed like that) that most people will have to spend a long time developing. U have to spend weeks or even MONTHS letting your body adjust to having something in ur throat and dealing with ur gag reflex. U dont just shove a dick down there. Thats your fucking breathing hole, show it some respect!

Anal also should not fucking hurt you! Your anus is perfectly capable if stretching so fucking stretch it! Its dry as hell so get some fucking lube! Do you know how dangerous anal is if you don't do it right? That pain is tearing. You are creating tears which increases the risk of sti transmission and other infections. And my god do you have any idea how much your anus can fucking bleed if you don't treat it gently? Shit I've got "shit am I gonna die?" Levels of bleeding just from IBS and thats gentler than an unlubed dick!

And your fucking vagina is made to accomadate FAR more than a fucking penis. Thats built to let a whole child slide through. If you can't handle a dick you need some help! You don't deserve to have to deal with that pain! Thats a whole medical disorder! Arousal and maybe lube is all you should need to resolve pain, if it still hurts and it aint some monstrously huge dick ur dealing with then there is something wrong and you need help with that!

This is no fucking better than misogynistic culture normalising and glorifying "it hurts the first time" bullshit. If anything its worse, to say sex like this is painful in general. It is not. That is not normal. Stop telling people this shit is normal. You are putting people on danger.

Sex should never EVER hurt unless you want it to.

[eroticcannibal]

Also while I'm on this labia issues causing pain during sex is real and u don't have to put up with that either. Now I dont know a fix cus I just tolerated it until childbirth solved it but u dont have to! See ur doctor! Demand intervention!

[fucktoyfelix]

There are a lot of medical reasons that cause sex to be painful so please seek a doctor if additional foreplay has not helped you. Vaginismus, BV and others are medical conditions that can cause this, that have treatment options!!!

[skarchomp]

the problem with voice acting these days is that nobody sounds properly fucked up anymore. every time they need someone to play a weird guy or a creature it's just some dude with a traditional handsome guy voice gargling a little. it's like trying to use a picrew to make an old person.

[stealthrockdamage-deactivated20]

people slipping up and saying shit like “biological name” instead of “deadname” is more or less proof these people don’t actually care about real science they just want smart sounding words and i guarantee if we could manipulate chromosomes they’d abandon all pretext of science and start yammering about how people are born with a “masculine/feminine essence” that “cant be changed” like none of these people actually know the chromosomes real fuckin function and they dont care they just know they cant be changed

[daggers-drawn]

“Biological name”

Scientists scanned my dna, I’m genetically a Sally but I chose my own fate.

[softlyfiercely]

i changed my name for non gender related reasons and people like to ask me “what’s your birth name” and i say “oh i actually wasn’t born with a name my parents just gave me one” and that tends to shut people up

[akros-artificer]

Damn nice

[the-marked-man]

that’s an excellent response. gonna have to steal it

[questions-within-questions]

That’s so perfect I can’t even compete with my annacdote about how my parents just never got around to naming me.

[zarekthelordofthefries]

No hang on I need to hear that anecdote

[questions-within-questions]

Okay so I didn’t discover this in detail until after I transitioned and tried to correct all my documents and rid myself of my deadname.

So eventually I get to my birth certificate, which I had never seen. My parents eventually agree to dig it out of their attic and I’m expecting to see my deadname on it,

NOPE.

“Baby [Lastname]” was listed as my name on my birth certificate. When I enquired about it this turned out after birth I was busy having all kinds of life threatening health problems for the first year of my life so naming me was something that was kept on the back burner. Medieval style.

My deadname was never amended because my parents literally never named me, my deadname was just a nickname my eight year-old brother came up with that kind of sticked.

Okay, sure, “but where,” I asked, “did the name ‘Baby’ come from?”

“Oh,” I was told “That’s kind of a placeholder hospitals assign to newborns in this situation.”

So my original name was litterally assigned to me at birth by a doctor.

[kiophen]

you were literally assigned baby at birth

Okay, so fun thing - our friends taped it from Sky for us when it premiered there way back in the 90s before we had the VHS. I have no idea why, but there was a little 10-15 minute behind the scenes thing (that may or may not be on the DVD. Would need to go hunting) but basically, they were “interviewing the cast”, so Piggy and Kermit and Tim were all there being filmed separately in talking heads sections.

The interviewer raised speculation of an on-set romance between Piggy and Tim Curry. Kermit flailed, Piggy tried to be coy and Tim frigging Curry gave the most wickedly mischievous look straight into the camera and said “Well I do love a bacon roll”

20+ years ago, I saw that and I cackle every time I think of it.

man it's so fucking funny when I actually solve a wordle bc in my brain it makes me feel like this gif

hot take but acne scars (and scars of any kind!!!), big noses, crooked teeth, hairy arms or legs, soft and round bodies are not only completely normal and acceptable BUT beyond that??? they’re so unique and mesmerizing and remarkable in every single way. in a world where everyone wants to look the same with pointy noses and airbrushed skin and facetuned waists, all i hope is to meet people who look entirely different and make me believe in the beauty of being alive and being human.

Greek Civ. Professor: To the ancient Greeks, sex was only valid when a penis was involved so they believed it was impossible for two women to have sex.

————

Me: Wait, wait, wait! So according to the ancient Greek view of sex not being possible when it's between ancient women, and Sparta encouraging Spartan women to have female lovers to avoid loneliness from absent husbands because it didn't count as cheating, Are you telling me that when the virgin goddesses wanted to always remain chaste, it was more of an anti-pee pee club because lesbian sex didn't count?

————

Greek Civ. Professor: Yup.

And suddenly the scene in the Odyssey where the virgin goddess Athena tells Odysseus "I'm off to Sparta, where the women are a wonder," has a whole new meaning:

animated movies need to go back to hiring normal voice actors instead of celebrity cameos if only because it’s funny to show someone this

and say “yeah this is all one guy”

[mortimermcmirestinks]

animated movies also need to go back to hiring voice actors because voice actors are voice actors and screen actors fucking aren’t
