Pinned post!! hello! i'm alive!

you can call me August, pronouns are they/fae/she

I love to write but i'm so bad at plot so i usually just end up with half-finished planners

I love fiber arts! As of right now I only know how to crochet, but I really want to learn how to sew, embroider, knit, macrame, etc.

Media I like (i can't find a better way to phrase this 😭)

this pride it is mandatory that everyone is nicer to lesbians. especially trans lesbians

[mad-dog308]

Transfem lesbians.

[thinkingabout-girls]

transfem lesbians are included in trans lesbians. this post is made in support of ALL trans lesbians

[mad-dog308]

The only trans lesbians are transfem lesbians. TME non-women aren't lesbians. If they are then gay men and straight people might as well be lesbians too.

[crippled-peeper]

transmasc lesbians have existed since long before you were born and will continue to exist long after you die.

you can be as mad about it as you want, you can call it something else, you can build your entire personality around how icky it makes you feel, but this is simply others lived reality and you don’t get to just decide it isn’t.

I made a pride flag out of free bug stock photos.

Grace “can I think about this” and Stratt “you have 3 hours” versus Grace “can I think about it” and Rocky “yes think about it long time”

it would be so awesome

it would be so cool

[patricia-taxxon]

the thing is, if your younger self was a bigot or an abuser, u can't make people forgive you. but you still gotta forgive yourself, like that's non-negotiable, dude. that happens before u can even ask the question of earning forgiveness from anyone lese

[patricia-taxxon]

oops, in your attempt to martyr yourself out of respect for your victims you accidentally sabotaged your own ability to conceptualize yourself as anything but a perpetual evildoer who is always one bad day away from hurting everyone you love, all but guaranteeing history to repeat itself. rookie mistake

[patricia-taxxon]

im gonna try explaining myself, cus im a gambling addict and im waiting for the day that it actually works.

"forgiveness" is personal, that's why I said in the post that you might inflict harm on people for which they can never forgive you, but that's their quest. if you abuse someone, you can't go no-contact with yourself. you actually keep living in your own head indefinitely, and ultimately you need to learn to live with yourself in order to continue living a full life without further harm. this is not necessarily an anti-carceral thought, although i am generally anti-carceral myself. I simply want people to like, fix their heart and atone for real with measured accountability & self love instead of dissociating, self-marking themselves forever and guaranteeing their recidivism.

You and a remorseful abuser would both think I'm giving the easy, coddling path. It's actually the tough pragmatic path in disguise.
