you missed a whole part that makes it even funnier. "wesołego geja" uses the same phase structure as holiday wishes - "wesołych świąt" (merry christmas)
my favorite variation of this is "smacznego geja" ("have a tasty gay"), which is a spin on the polish phrase "smacznego jajka" (when we wish someone tasty eggs on easter)
As time goes on the idea of a "transtrender" gets funnier and funnier. At what point in time has there ever been a trend or clout to gain from being trans?

hoping to use this post as a point of reference for "you can totally inject your HRT even though you're fucking terrified of it". if you have any advice or anecdotes please do pipe up!
Basically I think a lot of White ppl think the antithesis to racism is "Black people are inherently Cool, White people are inherently Lame" and it's just very hard to convince them that this is also extremely racist lmfao
It's the combination of "seeing a racialized group as Fundamentally Inherently Good is still dehumanizing and you aren't seeing them as people" and "your self-flagellating White guilt is extremely annoying for the people of color around you to deal with"
i legitimately have not heard the Eljibbities Stole The Rainbow From God And Christians argument irl before last friday. it was like seeing a rare bird except the bird fucking sucks
everybody: you’ve got to advocate for yourself in medical settings!
medical professionals when a patient advocates for themselves in a medical setting (x100 if that patient is a part of any minority): damn. you’re a hypochondriac crazy bitch who has every mental illness and is seeking every narcotic in existence. that’s the only reason you’d be disappointed in the care you’re receiving here. in retaliation, we will be even less helpful and less sympathetic. our jobs are hard. people are dying. we don’t have time to deal with anyone who is slightly inconvenient for us.
you literally can not have a vagina without paying for it. vaginoplasty for some, period products for others, if you want to stop buying period products that’s gonna be expensive medicine or an expensive procedure, recovery from surgery requires time off work and vaginoplasty specifically requires money spent on dilators. our bodies shouldnt cost us this much on baseline. having a vagina shouldnt have such a hefty tax on it. it makes me feel like i’m in a fictional dystopia written for middle school classrooms when i think about it.
