—the mind is a lonely playlist waiting for the right listener—

[leonardospoetry]

Feeling too much can hurt sometimes, but one day you grow and realize that your heart was never really broken. It was just wide open.

[lyralit]

show, don't tell:

anticipation - bouncing legs - darting eyes - breathing deeply - useless / mindless tasks - eyes on the clock - checking and re-checking

frustration - grumbling - heavy footsteps - hot flush - narrowed eyes - pointing fingers - pacing / stomping

sadness - eyes filling up with tears - blinking quickly - hiccuped breaths - face turned away - red / burning cheeks - short sentences with gulps

happiness - smiling / cheeks hurting - animated - chest hurts from laughing - rapid movements - eye contact - quick speaking

boredom - complaining - sighing - grumbling - pacing - leg bouncing - picking at nails

fear - quick heartbeat - shaking / clammy hands - pinching self - tuck away - closing eyes - clenched hands

disappointment - no eye contact - hard swallow - clenched hands - tears, occasionally - mhm-hmm

tiredness - spacing out - eyes closing - nodding head absently - long sighs - no eye contact - grim smile

confidence - prolonged eye contact - appreciates instead of apologizing - active listening - shoulders back - micro reactions

we've said it before, i'll say it again:

if someone puts a /j on a post that, to you, is obviously a joke? that just means the tag is not for you.

if someone puts a /s on a post that, to you, is obviously sarcastic? that just means the tag is not for you.

if someone puts a /g on a post that, to you, has no reason not to sound genuine? that just means the tag is not for you.

if someone puts a /nm on a post that, to you, sounds perfectly calm anyways? that just means the tag is not for you.

if someone puts "#unreality" on one of your shitposts, when you can clearly tell it's a joke/shitpost? that just means the tag is not for you.

this goes for literally any other tone tag, trigger tag, or content warning. the internet does not revolve around you, and you do not get to judge or make fun of other's accessibility measures or safety measures.

Can the Harry Potter fandom have some sort of fic/art fundraising drive where we all create works about trans issues in the magical world, and all the money we raise goes to helping trans folks, and can we make this huge, just as a giant Fuck You to JK Rowling?

[notbrianna]

Her birthday is July 31 if anybody wanted to pick a day for such an event to take place

[emperorsfoot]

Let’s do it! 

Where can I sign up?

[moku-youbi]

Okay, let me figure out the details and I’ll launch it!

[moku-youbi]

I am working on putting this together, but I would love input from those more involved in the HP fandom, and from transgender folks so I can do the best job possible and come up with a good title for the fundraiser, as well as suggestions on foundations to support!

[moku-youbi]

Here is a link to the dreamwidth journal I created for this event. Right now I’m still coming up with a timeline, gathering resources, and just figuring this out. I have participated in fandom auctions before, but never run one, so I welcome any and all help. Please signal-boost the hell out of this and my post on the tumblr Trans Wizard Tournament blog, which is a more detailed introduction, private message me if you’re able to help and just keep your suggestions coming.
