Welcome to my stupid blog

Kat | they/she | 30+  I have the humor of a 10 year old. All the things here will probably reflect that. I tag for triggers, spoilers, and post appropriately labeled NSFW art. if I am not tagging something you need to block I'll try to add it..

It’s so annoying when I say I have an irrational fear or a phobia and people try to logic me out of it. I just told you that it’s irrational.

i think it's beautiful that cats eat you if you die in your apartment and nobody finds you for a while. i don't know why it's used as anti-kitty cat propaganda as if eating you means they don't love u. if i died and no one found me for a while i would want my kitty cat to eat me bc i love her so much and i don't want her to starve. it's not her fault i'm too dead to give her her fancy feasts. she's going thru something scary ok. i don't know a single cat owner who doesn't feel the same way

The way adult fandom people hold indie online creators and cartoons to a much higher standard than their actual local politicians. You could be putting that energy into terrorizing and protesting conservatives at your town hall and actually make a good material impact on the world but instead you're background checking everything the trans woman who made the amazing digital circus has ever said

"Canceling" was also an AAVE term that originally meant "We ain't fucking with this person anymore because they're weird with weird and questionable beliefs" and white people took it and tainted it to mean "You're trying to ruin someone's life, how dare you make someone take accountability for their actions !" like they really thought that saying "Hey this person is racist, maybe you want to think twice before giving them money and support" is a bad thing and that says a lot more about them than it does about us

Trans Woman Eryka Caldwell Fatally Stabbed in Bushwick, Brooklyn

Caldwell’s boyfriend, 38-year-old Jonathan Fernandez, has been charged with murder.

another Black woman lost to intimate partner violence. another Black woman lost to transfemicide. Black trans women are some of the most visible among us, statistically face the highest rates of violence, and are still at the bedrock of every trans community, holding up half the sky. Black trans women deserve to be loved out loud and uplifted and appreciated while they're still here.

rest in heavenly peace and pride and power Eryka. i know she's being welcomed with open arms and so much love by her late mother. but Eryka should still be here.

if anyone is able, please donate to or share around her family's fundraiser, they are raising money for the funeral, travel to NY to identify and claim Eryka, as well as transportation of her back home to Kentucky.

sorry to everyone tagging this "malicious helplessness" "learned incompetence" "some straight girl's bf who sucks at doing the dishes on purpose" etc etc etc but this post was actually about disability.

This kind of response to things I say about sex work, which isn't always phrased like this but almost always focuses on me being male or a man or my pronouns, shows a fundamental misunderstanding of why mansplaining is bad.

I am a sex worker. I have been for a decade. The majority of people I know are sex workers and I'm embedded in sex worker community. I started before 18 and have done it in brothels, cars, my own home, clients' homes, saunas, and hotels.

It's absolutely reasonable to criticize men who speak on issues they don't experience like an authority, especially when they speak over women to do it. It is not reasonable to raise someone's gender (or in this case, pronouns) as a reason their thoughts aren't worth hearing when the issue is one they do face.

[mxjackparker]

I see people bringing up that I'm trans in response to things like this, as a way to legitimize my speech. The reason I refuse to do so, despite many of my experiences selling sex being pre-transition, is that I equally do not want cis men who have done sex work to be silenced on the topic.

We need more active and former sex workers to speak out. That won't happen if we're dismissing those who do.

i hate dogs with blue eyes. why is fucking jeff the killer at my back door

[wav48k]

Do you need something.

[wav48k]

before this starts getting notes i have to add that this is not my dog. i dont know how he got in my backyard

[wav48k]

someone made a terrible youtube video searching for the source of this dog picture like it's lost media and he on-screen scrolls by a live tumblr link to this post before claiming i deleted my account, pulling up a wayback machine archived page, and then lying about contacting my ex boyfriend for more information

“I never let my chronic illness stop me from doing things!”

That’s nice, I do. Not listening to my body is part of what got me this bad. Sometimes you have to balance taking care of yourself and achieving your ultimate goals.

[learn-how-to-love]

Way too many people are comfortable making their own personal discomfort about their past other people’s problem. I was an autistic little fat girl, injecting testosterone every week doesn’t change that for me. At one time that’s who I was and it fundamentally shaped my life in a way that I know for a fact it wouldn’t have if I’d been an autistic fat boy. I’ll always carry a little piece of her inside me, and that’s okay. If you would find that viewpoint on your life invalidating then that’s completely fine, you don’t have to identify that way. How I or anyone else views their pretransition selves has no bearing on you, says nothing about you and is most importantly not up for you to decide.

tl;dr: all "algorithmically" pushed stuff on a newsfeed is mostly ads. nothing that's really surprising form this vulture article, but it is dismal and makes me grateful for one website where you only see things from people you follow WITHOUT horrible short-form video content

[bitchking-of-angmar]

The Feed Is Fake

What if every viral song, movie, meme, influencer, and celebrity drama in recent memory was the result of a stealth marketing campaign?

I think this idea of transfems can only be safe around transfems is... I mean it's a problem because it's false, right, someone being the same demographic as you is no guarantee that they won't be toxic or abusive. And if you're restricting your social groups based on criteria like that, you'll have less options, you'll be more isolated, you'll be more reliant on fewer people and thus more vulnerable to abuse. The safety is an illusion.

I've reached the point where cynicism is a major turn-off for me. You're not smarter than idealists, and you're not helping.

[quasi-normalcy]

Funny that the stereotypical cynic is an idealist who aged out of it. In my experience, the reverse is true. I was an extreme cynic as a teenager and then I noticed how profoundly limiting it was, and also that "cynics are cool and smart" was a message that was being constantly reinforced by corporate media for some reason.

[quasi-normalcy]

#yes! cynicism reads as very juvenile to me#and yes prev often stemming from teen pain

Yeah, like I see black-pilled people on here and my default reaction isn't "oh, these must be world-weary old warriors who've lost their faith in humanity", it's "these people are in their 20s and need a hobby"

[quasi-normalcy]

I also think that the present era has proven that authoritarian leaders don't actually want a population of wide-eyed idealists, they want a population of jaded assholes who are convinced that everyone is lying, any resistance is either a scam or doomed to failure, and nothing can ever get better.

we're moving to an internet where children would be banned from reaching out for help and friendship online but abusive parents can post their children's every second online to humiliate and expose them for money with no pushback

[themaveriqueagenda]

it's weird that "i'm nonbinary, but i have a job" was turned into a "lol, being nonbinary is super unprofessional" meme rather than an actual conversation about nonbinary employment discrimination.
