The problem with being low support needs is that people mentally autocorrect that to “no support needs” and then proceed to give you absolutely nothing and then get surprised when you implode after six months.

Last year I made a post saying I wish I could be more like Superman. I desperately wanted to see past the hurt and anger I felt. And let go. To continue to be good despite everything. To not give up. To be "the real punk rock" so to speak.

My partner called me that while hugging me in the living room. I never asked for it. He just said "you're so much like superman. I don't know how you can still be so kind after everything people have done to you." .

Growing up kids would often call me carrie. Or say "you're gonna be a serial killer when you're older" or "I'll see you one day on the 5 0 clock news". I never laughed. It's not funny. It's not a good feeling to be filled with so much hatred or anger or confusion. Being teased when you're being abused is not helpful. And I guess I could be a villain if I wanted. I could have used an iron skillet as a weapon so many times

But I don't want to do that. I don't want to live a life where I'm cruel for no reason. To walk around with no understanding of the people I'm being hurt by is a disservice to me. Because there is always a reason. No one is ever cruel for no reason.

My favorite manga growing up is fruits basket. I relate a lot to Isuzu. The way she wanted nothing but to fall in the lap of tohru and pour out her heart. I remember saying "I wish I could be that person. I wish I could be kind. I wish I could hold out my hand and smile after being told the worst things imaginable about myself"

When he called me superman I just cried. I sobbed in the shower too. It's like I was releasing all the pain I endured for years. To be seen for who I am and how hard I try to be better felt so overwhelming I didn't know what to do. It felt like for the first time someone was looking at me, not my body, my face , my clothes, but me. Right to my core. And it was startling how I couldn't argue. I couldn't disagree. I just cried. That's all I could do. As if my teenage self was there and said "finally" before dropping all that weight.

Because that's all I ever wanted to be. In so many environments where people are just the worst, I wanted to be kind. I wanted to be gentle. I wanted to be different. One day, I hope I can be superman for myself too.

Let's say I really wanted to reduce the number of children who die in car accidents. Car accidents are really bad, right? Nobody disagrees about that. And it would be much better for both the environment and the kids' health if they spent more time walking, or taking the bus. Perfectly reasonable. More cars off the road, safer roads, fewer kids getting hurt, healthier kids. A win-win!

Therefore, let's ban children from traveling by car and require all cars to have a scanner on the door that scans the government ID of everyone who gets in the car to make sure no kids are in there. After all, kids get hurt in car accidents all the time! We need to ban this right away!

A wonderful artist to work with. Thank you again.

I don't understand how cis people obsessed with gender norms think trans people are the weird ones. they're going around believing that your name has to correlate to your genitals. your fashion has to correlate to your genitals. your behaviours have to correlate to your genitals. your hobbies have to correlate to your genitals. who you date has to correlate to your genitals. whether you can put sparkles on your eyelids or not has to correlate to your genitals. and then people like me go "hmm. I might not do that. maybe I'll just do what feels fun and okay instead" and they LOSE their MINDS

I work with kids and sometimes we have to do safety lessons with them about like, not telling strangers on the internet your home address or something. And sometimes the kids wont understand why, so you have to impart upon them that, well, some adults want to hurt children. And thats kind of difficult to do, because you have to beat around the bush, both because you dont want to scare them (while still making them understand how serious it is) and because you might lose your job if you explain it too straight forward.

Luckily, for some reason, the villain of one of the most popular franchises with children for the last 10 years happens to be a serial child murderer. So when a kid asks why they shouldnt trust strangers, instead of hand wringing and humhawing my answer out, I can just say "we dont always know when a strange adult has good intentions with children, or when they are William Afton."
