A milestone of sorts: Will you still need me?

[luxlightly]

Having depression is fun because one of the main symptoms is that you want to kill yourself and one of the side effects of the meds is you want to kill yourself but if you at any point even IMPLY you want to kill yourself to your doctors in charge of making you not want to kill yourself, you are forcibly put in "wanting to kill yourself jail".

And I have news that may not surprise you about how "wanting to kill yourself jail" affects your mental state and what it may make you want to do.

[luxlightly]

If you actually want to help someone with mental health issues, come to their house and wash the dishes in their sink. I promise they have them. This is 1000% more effective than locking them up against their will.

wanted to bring people's attention to the new anti trans bill that's been proposed in India. This bill literally erases our identity and our autonomy so it would help if more people were aware of what is happening to us in this country

^Community-led Mobilisation to Reject Trans Bill 2026. Please look into it.

Signing the Collective Statement on Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Bill 2026

Maybe I should've been more assertive making this post but

THE RIGHTS OF INDIAN TRANS PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET TAKEN AWAY IN JUST A FEW DAYS. I THINK ITS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR EVERYONE TO AT LEAST CARE.

I know I was being vague in the original post, and i apologise, genuinely. But to specify, this bill takes away our rights for self identification. Our identity will no longer be in our hands, no longer ours to determine, no longer our own but for medical institutions to determine. It's plain erasure.

Our lives are miserable enough as is in this country so it literally takes nothing for the 90% white userbase of this site to sign a petition or spread awareness. That's all that it takes from your side.

Fellow indian trans people or allies can use this this link to email your member of Parliament about the Trans Bill, made by members of the Queer Against the Trans Bill Collective.

Happy Trans Rights Readathon!

Obviously I won't be able to read all of these but as a die-hard mood reader, I have to cast a wide net! So these are the books I am going to have on hand for the Trans Rights Readathon. What are you reading?

Can you play an instrument? (Any skill level)

Yes (which one? 👀)

No

Nuance (up to interpretation)

Voting ended onApr 2

I’m just curious how many people at some point in their lives have played/learned to play an instrument of any kind.

I included a nuance button bc I know there might be some folks who might be like “well I played the recorder in grade school but idk if that counts” — count it if you want or hit nuance if you’re unsure! 😊

To be clear, if you studied an instrument to any level of proficiency, even if you’re out of practice now, please select yes!

Reblog with your instrument, if you wish 🙏🏼 Or just for more accurate results

[cyber-punk-rock]

Boosting again! I’ve been enjoying reading everyone’s responses so far, it brings me joy to see music has reached so many lives!! 😊🫶🏼

Re:64 Is it your birthday? Omg happy birthday! Glad to still have you kicking about

Thank you! Yeah, I’m 64 today. It’s strange - I do feel my age, the weight of years, the being able to look over my shoulder and see a long way back, and at the same time it’s as if time did not pass, as if I’m still waiting to finish something and then I can go forward. 

I get startled when I see someone my own age and they’ve gone gray and what do you mean time has passed for real? And I wonder if this is just a quirk of mine or if everybody at this end of the timeline has felt this and dealt with it. 

And dogs have no concept of time anyway, so why worry? :) 

Life is good, health is strong, I have a husband I worship and a family I cherish, a career in music and art that’s at its peak, a standing gig as a kink historian (this year Pup Play turns 40 and I’m touring the country with a Pup History gig), I’m blessed and I know it, and I’m grateful and thankful and so happy to be here.

Time to play! enjoy your day, awoooooo!

wags! OGL

It's spring now which means the kids in my city have started drawing hopscotches on the sidewalk and as a rule I do every hopscotch I see because 1. Use it or lose it (ability to scotch) and 2. If a child got down on the hardscrabble streets of Boston Massachusetts to draw a scotch the least I can do is use it, but in doing the hopscotches, I've learned that about 50% of them are the typical 8-10 step scotch and the other 50% are. Somewhat avant-garde. And of course I'm not vetting the entire scotch before I start it so sometimes it's like haha 8 steps woo! Childlike whimsy! And sometimes they're 20 steps or 30 or they've got a section with three squares instead of two where you have to do a little Charleston to step on all three, or, memorably, FORTY one foot squares. A full BLOCK of jumping on one foot but I'm no quitter so once I've started Jigsaw Junior's fuckin hopscotch gauntlet I'm there til the end just a daily pot smoker in her thirties jumping kasa-obake style through an affluent suburb while some little proto-kennedy watches from his bedroom window rubbing his sadistic little third grade hands together and cackling. It's amazing. I love spring.

Beautiful post

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

The problem with story concepts is that they take a while to ferment, so you think of something at 3am and you're like "wow that's fucked up" and then it sits in the back of your head for 3-12 months until it's ready and by then you're used to it so you're like "oh yeah the thing, the totally normal thing" and you write it and put it out in the world and people are like "wow that's fucked up" and you're like "what do you mean? It's literally normal?"
