i mean this in the nicest way possible but some of you need to learn how to be annoyed

[weirdtranssexual]

people are going to annoy you and that’s not a reason to burn bridges or blow up relationships

some people will even annoy you often! some people aren’t good at social cues and will therefore be frequently annoying! still not a reason to blow everything up!

hey so something that i’ve been thinking about lately.

we’ve all been on the internet and in queer spaces a long time right? we all know the phenomenon of hyper specific identity label discourse or the personal pressure to figure out an all encompassing term for our genders and sexualities? maybe this was obvious to everyone but me already but i think that’s a direct response to homophobia/transphobia. like the fact that we’re constantly judged and surveilled in society and also battling even highly internalized phobias—I’m not like those other queer people—leads to us subdividing to any degree. i think a lot of us are pining for language that gets people to actually see us how we are—and treat us with respect—when that is something language doesn’t fully have the power to accomplish in a cishet patriarchal world.

i guess on a personal note this is part of the reason why i like broad terms and fluid definitions. i think the LGBT+ community benefits from finding solidarity rather than difference. at the same time i’m frustrated by the way cis straight people treat me and have had the urge to correct them. but that’s not the point, the point is that they’re shitty for making assumptions about people and our culture is extremely steeped in homophobia & transphobia. not cowtailing to homophobes is a good thing, even when they misinterpret my whole deal.

god I don’t know if I’m seriously returning to tumblr, although I have enough confidence and pride on the relationships and community offline in my life that I’m really not too worried about what social media is or isn’t. I like images and I hate fascism. I feel the need to scream at the void fairly frequently. I have friends I talk to and other friends I wish I talked to more and a husband and a therapist and fairly normal family and fairly normal coworkers. But the jobs I do are hard and it’s kind of a thought loop I get in sometimes. Unprompted shyness and unprompted tangents and rambling. It’s hard to keep a journal and it’s hard to trust one’s self. It’s hard to be someone but there isn’t any other option and people are always going to just see what they want to see. I want their desire to control others in attempt to control themselves to change. I’m feeling very spiritual about the whole thing. I can only do what I’m meant to do, otherwise my spirit is resistant to it. I don’t have it all correct and figured out but I’m also being pretty reasonable and brave about it.

stop buying tat. and by tat i mean cheap / shoddy / tasteless / tacky plastic shite. just stop buying it. listen. i'm all for a deal. but think of planet earth. stop buying plastic planters shaped like glup shitto. no more funko pops. you get the deal. but cringepics, you say. it's a birthday or a holiday season and my friends and family love tacky plastic fandom shit. please get them literally anything else. think of the planet. i live in australia and this country lights itself on fire more often than ever before historically and i'm not going to fry to a fucking crisp because you "needed" a hazbin hotel themed garden gnome. buy local. re-use. think sustainable. everyone wants to eat the rich and no one wants to stop lining their pockets
