This [and by this I mean the pdf in the link. plz click the link. I wrote a thing] is basically my life story and how I realized I'm trans. I kind of had to come out to my family this weekend for reasons. I was raised very conservative christian so I've been scared of their reactions, but my sister (who I came out to about six months ago) has been encouraging me to tell them as they've gotten more liberal since I moved out.

tl;dr: I came out to my family this weekend by telling them all the things they never knew about me and all I got was love <3 <3

take one, pass it on

a hug

a hand to hold

a cottage in the woods with no phone reception

a beer

a guttural scream in a field somewhere

“everything will be okay”

a snack

a comfort read/comfort movie

uninterrupted sleep

whatever your heart desires (you deserve it)

Yesterday I got a message from a friend in Germany who told me she cannot watch John Oliver's new video titled "The West Bank, JD Vance & Kamala Harris" that her boyfriend sent her from Serbia. This struck me as odd but also unsurprising, because John Oliver talks, amongst other things, about how Israeli settlements in Palestine are illegal. So I started investigating, asking my friends all around the world if they can see the video. Austria was a no, USA was a no, UK was a no, UAE was a no, India was a no. Then my friend with access to VPN got involved, and she checked the world for me. She then found a site that lets you tell where a video is blocked. Here is a map of all the countries where the video is blocked:

Now, some of these countries have YT blocked completely, but I really want you to ask yourselves why this video is blocked. Why is it blocked in countries where, as another friend has said, John Oliver is known and watched and trusted. I want you to think about that for a bit, and then I want you to wonder what it is that he says in this video that warrants it being unavailable for half of the world, and which half of the world that is. Why won't they let a white British man speak to the audience of the "western" world. What is it that he has to say? Then maybe watch it, and come to your own conclusions. Some critical thinking won't go amiss here.

Here is the video, if you can open it:

And here is the link typed out: https://youtu.be/LCXdbtlY9WM?si=tOl_sCdYKqWGKkxX

Here is the link for the video on Instagram, which should be available to watch: LINK.

Walz is a former school teacher, served in the army, and was very pro-active in getting progressive stuff passed in his legislature. Besides codifying abortion/IVF rights, see this list of his accomplishments. A solid pick.

just read through that compilation of twitter posts and i’m mad again SO

for the people in the back who haven’t been paying attention: transandrophobia entails the rape, forced impregnation, forced detransition, murder, and suicide of trans men. often before we ever have the chance to leave the closet.

if they get us early: we don’t fit into the mold of girl well and as such are overcorrected and more forcibly socialized than many of our peers. failing that we’re ostracized and ridiculed by our communities.

many spaces we feel are open and welcoming to us are just as rapey and detransition happy as the previous: notably lesbian and sapphic spaces.

failing those if we decide to transition within our communities in enters to aforementioned rape detransition but but with the added flavor of forced impregnation.

if none of the above have driven us to suicide yet, and we manage to do some kind of physical transition. we will be heavily and violently punished by broader society for our gender deviance and confusing secondary sex characteristics.

this is where a lot of the murders occur if they haven’t already from some kind of domestic abuse.

so no, transandrophobia isn’t people just making fun of facial hair. it’s the bodies of transmasculine people you will never come to know because we didn’t get a news story. there was no police report. we are buried as women and the times were killed as men are brushed aside as misdirected transmisogyny.

we get lucky if we’re buried as men, most of us don’t make it that far.

“u can’t just decide that ur no longer a man when we say ‘kill all men’ ur basically misgendering urself!!!!!!!” i’m actually not bc i’m not required to offer myself up on a silver platter to fulfill some girlboss’s hate crime fantasy

[queer-folk-abroad]

No ‘girlboss’ is going to kill you. Grow the fuck up and let women vent.

[black-rabbit-fiction]

didn't know wishing death on half the human population was venting

[spacelazarwolf]

“grow up and let people actively hurt and oppress you because they’re not mature enough to suck it up and go to therapy”

anyway cis women shut the fuck up challenge!

[spacelazarwolf]

also it’s endlessly fascinating how someone can seem to have otherwise intersectional views on gender and queerness but when it comes to trans men they snap right back to 2013 tumblr te/rf feminism. i wonder if maybe it’s bc the queer community, yes even the super woke gender anarchist ones, have incredibly white cisnormative views of masculinity and the gender binary they learned from ra/dical feminism that they refuse to let go of………..hmm………………………………………….

I still can't get over Bill and Frank. I ugly cried because I wanted to be them so bad. what is wrong with me that two old, hairy, gay preppers unaliving themselves together in a post-apocalyptic nightmare is my pinnacle of romance???
