The two southern expressions "come Hell or high water" and "God willing and the creek don't rise" describe the exact same event. The only difference is one of them demonstrates a positive, can-do attitude, while the other shows a cringing servility to both floods and divine wrath

[butchfagminotaur]

this is harsh advice but if you’re medically transitioning for any reason other than to make yourself feel more at home in your body then you need to change that or it will destroy you

[butchfagminotaur]

if the only reason you medically transition is to pass you will probably never be happy with your results because a lot of these surgeries aren’t perfect and they will leave scars and whatnot and you’ll constantly be comparing that to cis bodies in media

i didn’t get top surgery to pass as anything i got it because for the first time in my life i feel completely and utterly at home in my body! and you know what? that means that even if my results aren’t “perfect” i don’t care! because i can throw on a t-shirt or tank top or even go shirtless and feel fucking free!

transition like you’re the last person on earth

[butchfagminotaur]

i wrote this because i see countless guys on the top surgery subreddits posting fairly fantastic results and lamenting that they’re botched or awful or horrible when they aren’t because they want to be 100% completely cis passing and it’s like ok well clearly that’s doing bad things to you psychologically if you think that your scars not being exactly symmetrical means you’re “botched” so i think you need to do some soul searching

don’t transition like you’re a subject in a lab

transition like you’re the last person on earth

[angelicfangs]

i think this is good perspective, even for people who aren’t pursuing being “cis passing”. i feel so, so much better after top surgery and yet i still fixate on some small aspects of how i’ve healed—stretch marks, uneven scarring, areola size, etc. i think if someone has been experiencing dysphoria for a long time, it’s easy to redirect that focus towards “imperfections” even when the root cause is addressed.

it definitely helps me to think about how much happier and more comfortable i am now than before, and also that cis bodies come in all shapes in sizes and can have any number of quirks. we can’t forget that we’re often not just comparing ourselves to cis bodies, we’re comparing ourselves to very IDEALIZED cis bodies! there are more people who DON’T meet those criteria than who DO.

The older i get the more i understand why some people become obsessed with privacy, not because they’re hiding something, but because being constantly perceived starts to feel spiritually exhausting.

Did you know that soda machines at restaurants and movie theaters spy on you? That most common new cars now record your sexual preferences and send it to the manufacturer (and also data about anyone who also gets in your car, walks by your car, and maybe happens to be within visual range of your car)? That grocery stores are trying to force customers to download an app to scan barcodes on shelves instead of putting up prices, so the app can scan the phone, decide how much that customer should be squeezed for, and adjust the price? That more and more innocent people are being sent to jail for crimes committed hundreds of miles away because an AI facial recognition algorithm spit their faces out and the cops didn't bother to do the most basic of checks?

I am not uptight about privacy because I'm hiding something. I'm uptight about it because the people who dismiss my right to privacy are dangerous to you and me and our families, personally, all the time.

And often, they are assholes, too.

It's about to be Juneteenth I hope non-Black people have a couple grand to give to every Black american from the south, and I'm not even close to joking.

[fluoresensitives]

juneteenth tomorrow! If you have ever laughed, chuckled, nodded in agreement with any of my posts, went 'ooh wow' at one of my playlists or moodboards, or if you've read any of my work and said, "damn, this Black southern icon can WRITE", you can go ahead and drop some money in my account. I'm currently in between checks, so any amount of help would be nice. But also search your soul and consider what evils non-Black people have done to Black people just this month alone, and try to match your donation to the amount of psychological damage done to the average Black southerner, thank ya!!

I paid all my other bills last month but totally forgot about paying my health insurance -_-. It's about $209, so that's fun. Also, I will need help next month with my credit card bills (boo) so everyone get ready to get sick of me.

holy shit okay may have found a game-changer for web searches...with duckduckgo it's easy to turn off the ai features permanently, but regardless of engine there's the increasing problem of the search results themselves leading mostly to ai-generated articles on random ghost websites that say a lot without any information, and then the information they do give is contradictory or otherwise just wrong. this is especially a problem for me when trying to search for, e.g., a current list of the best products in a certain category.

finally searched for a solution and there IS in fact a giant hand-curated list of sites containing this content. it can be imported to ublock origin on desktop or mobile, and even can be used on iOS via the ublacklist extension in the safari app. it's updated regularly, and importing via the link as described should allow those updates to go into effect automatically.

i've only tested it a little bit, but after importing the list and repeating my duckduckgo search for backpack recommendations, my top results now lead to websites that appear to be linked to actual organizations in some form, with an "about us" page and the name of a founder and everything. the text is still often a bit wordy and SEO-optimized, but it now has actual recommendations that are relevant to the query. BIG IF TRUE???

please do not start talking about The Definition Of Art on this post, or Whether Human Creations Have Souls. i am very tired.

[dykeselfcest]

once I added this it took me 15 minutes to find a backpack that met my needs and order it with free shipping. I feel reborn

I am a father of a baby. A few days ago, we were caught in a downpour, and water flooded our

flimsy tent. I have an amputated leg and am

unable to work; I suffer pain every day. What hurts me most is seeing my little boy shivering and crying from the cold and hunger. We urgently need a tent to protect us from the rain, and diapers and milk for my baby. My campaign is documented as number 23, and any small support could help us protect our child and live with dignity.

[ahmedans-blog]

Painful, but important to share... "The occupying authorities insist on continuing their tight siege on #Gaza, preventing the entry of medicines and basic food supplies. The lack of healthy food and hygiene supplies, in addition to the overcrowding of displacement camps, has led to the emergence of unprecedented diseases, especially among #children."

Help us buy medicine, a tent, and supplies for my child. 🥺🦵

cultures that do an afternoon nap are OBJECTIVELY CORRECT and the world should be learning from them

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

you've heard of the spanish siesta now get ready for places like Vietnam where it's commonplace to see workers pull out a mattress & take an afternoon nap on the office/store floor. very powerful way to roll. give kindergarten-style naptime BACK to the people ✊

[bobdylanyume]

women around the world heed my call. your comfort above everything. dont put on those shoes that hurt after walking in them for 30 minutes dont wake up 1 hour and a half earlier to put on make up or do your hair dont tolerate a man talking down to you dont follow trends you dont care for dont let yourself feel hungry dont go places or do things to please someone else and most importantly. try that hobby or class or job that you think you will fail at.
