When we think of the past it's the beautiful things we pick out. We want to believe it was all like that.

I wish I was aware of more poly relationships that consist of respect and love for everyone involved. It’s exhausting hearing people use “poly” as an excuse to validate their cheating behaviour. If everyone isn’t happy, somehow I don’t think that’s a working relationship...

So please, if you are part of a functional poly relationship drop me a note, or reblog with how y’all met. I’d love to hear some positivite stories. You who know how to make it work speak up for your breathren, because I’m sick of toxic people slandering such a beautiful concept.

I went to a trans, nonbinary, intersex, 2 spirite, and gender questioning support group!

My town is SO FUCKING SMALL, and we are behind on a LOT of stuff. LGBTQ+ groups and organizations being one of them. But tonight there was a support group SPECIFICALLY for trans, nonbinary, intersex, 2 spirit, and gender questioning people. Me and one of my freinds went.

There was only a few people there, but it was a really good experience, and it's the first group like this in our town. I met some really cool people and we had some good talks as a group. A relative of mine was there and I learned they are intersex! It was so amazing to see other people who share similar experiences to me, and to be in a space with them that's safe. My freind also had a really good time, while I spent most of it being really anxious 😅

The group will happen once a month, and I'm already excited to go back

The desire for more positive experience is itself a negative experience. And, paradoxically, the acceptance of one's negative experience is itself a positive experience.
