A juvenile bug isn't called a larva until it reaches the surface. While it's still underground it's called a margma

My art inspired by @sparkbirdmusic's song Fog, I started this before it was officially released based on a snippet shown and now that the song is fully out I'm equally as proud of it

it actually infuriates me that we as a society have decided to medicalize and pathologize gender nonconformity

Also jealousy toward men who never have these experiences on account of not having a female body can really easily shift into "what if I could pass as one" when youre surounded by transition being the solution to everything online, and the idea that I could never relate to these thought patterns because really I just dont have that type of brain it's a type of brain you see and why are you trying to appropriate their stuggles. By explaining you might actually relate to them. Im going to tear my fucking hair out.

I also find it incredibly frustrating that because I myself am not detrans that means me relating to detrans and dysphoric people in the way that I do means nothing. I've had points of such intense disgust toward my body and *knowing* that stems from discomfort of being objectified I can externalize it more easily, I can understand that my body is not the problem. Idk just like. Listening to people describe their realizations of where their self hatred comes from and making a commitment in their life to improve their relationship with their body and saying fuck you to a society that tries to force women to be comfortable being feminine sexual objects or else they're failing at being a woman correctly has done a lot for me too and my identification with these people and all my past trans friends who I saw struggling in the same exact way means nothing if I dont have an identity label to go along with it idk whatever fuck that

Maybe detransitioners existing make some of you start having the realization that sex dysphoria is like body dysmorphia—a disorder—and that in itself is unfathomable. It being a disorder doesn't validate that mental state as worth giving into, and the inherent opposition and fight it proposes gets seen as personally hateful, blameful, derogatory.

I feel like I need to share this because idk if Europeans are familiar with the presence of Aldi in the US, but at least especially in my area they’ve been growing a lot recently. Like Aldi bought out some local failing grocery chains where I live (Louisiana) and have opened Aldis in all these somewhat rural communities and small towns, which for the record I’m fine with

But as a result of this they are advertising a lot more in my area and also in many cases, the people in these areas have never been confronted with Aldi or any European grocery store. So the ads that Aldi is pushing out to its new US customer base feature a cowboy shopping at Aldi who is explaining to new Aldi customers how Aldi works. Like this cowboy is explaining you gotta put a quarter in the shopping cart and why there are very little name brands. A cowboy is how they want to reach their American customer base. They gave us a cowboy
