I should be able to turn into a fucked up monster whenever I want. As a treat.

[biblicallyaccuratemoth]

God knew I’d be too powerful as a horrifying shapeshifting monster that could grow extra eyes and claws and fangs

I will never forgive him for that

Being trans is so hard sometimes you're like "god I miss having a cat" and then three different trans women all look at you and meow and rub themselves against you and it's like I appreciate the affection but you hoes know damn well what I meant

[dingdongyouarewrong]

i'm getting the sense some of you are not actually forklift certified.

[dingdongyouarewrong]

well damn . egg on my face

THE PLOT THICKENS @averagejoey2000 explain yourself

[averagejoey2000]

I can't believe this is how I'm finding out that I got a scam forklift cert.

I took the cargo ops class at school but my teacher explained that it doesn't give a certification and I'd only be okay for ship's crane and the school forklifts. she said I could take an online exam and get my cert. I paid 60 bucks.

I'm googling and I'm seeing a lot of resources saying that the online programs cover the classroom part of the exam but not the in person practical aspect.

29 CFR 1910.178 (l)(2)(ii)

but I did the in person practical shit at school.

[averagejoey2000]

the back of the card even had fancy numbers on it. I couldn't have known that this isn't the one. this website sounded more official than certifyme.net, and there wasn't one with a .gov address.

[averagejoey2000]

so, I emailed OSHA, and they said that so long as I live and work in California, there's no such thing as forklift certification. I have to be told how to do it every time I get the job.

[averagejoey2000]

Update: I took a certification class in shipboard Material Handling Equipment at my federal job. *now* I'm forklift certified, but only on ships and piers and only for this company, but also rated to forklift explosives and hazardous materials. Also I'm a woman now.

Are you a trans woman living in the US? Do you have complicated feelings around celebrating the 4th of July this year because the country is actively trying to kill you?

May I suggest instead doing what I do every year? One of my oldest and best friends was born on the 4th, she’s a badass trans woman and every year she throws a party to end all parties where we celebrate her, instead of this genocidal imperialist capitalist hellscape.

it’s far too common for trans women to have had something that brought them joy only to have it stolen by the testosterone they didn’t want

[biblicallyaccuratemoth]

I’m sure darn sick of people tripping over themselves to tell me that my inability to carry a child and be a mother is a good thing really because pregnancy is so painful and inconvenient and whatever

Not only does my mourning over lacking this ability get treated like I’m a fucking weirdo (which is certainly not how cis women with fertility issues are treated) but everyone knows I can’t have kids and feels entitled to comment on it like it’s something I chose or wanted or whatever

I didn’t choose to be a woman born with dick and balls syndrome

[biblicallyaccuratemoth]

“This character didn’t suffer enough to deserve redemption”

Uh excuse me your internalized Christian sensibilities are showing

[lynnsenpai]

The bra strap meme or whatever

Secret's out: I - a boob haver - have boobs, and I wear a bra. You got me. How will I go on?

[kandiravefur]

happy pride!! :3

[salamanding]

art for pride :3

dance, my bunnies, dance!

[imjunebitch]

when we "lose" a cis butch woman because he becomes a trans man or masc you should actually say such things as yay, yippee, or hooray.

[ayviedoesthings]

Saying this with all the love in my heart, "Trans" is not a magical title that erases all social biases and discriminations you hold in your mind the moment you transition.

You have to actually ACTIVELY unlearn all that shit. You can actually be trans AND hold TERF and racist beliefs, it is in fact very easy.

Read studies and essays, Engage with the works of other minorities, Don't think you're just better by virtue of losing *some* privilege.

[kaylasartwork]

This is something I am still learning to this very day. Growing up in a Christian Conservative Town and family gave me a lot of unfortunate views that I struggle with constantly. Everyday I try to chip away at those views.

My twin and I are watching an anime. I gesture to the main character:

“Look at that twink. I’d smash that twink. Would you smash that twink?”

Without missing a beat he replies, “I’d smash that twink,” nodding, “damn good twink.”

[joylelly-talking-comics]

Curious about which twink brought this post to life.
