like there comes a point where you think something is fundamentally wrong with you. and then it turns out it’s just Friday and you haven’t washed your hair in three days and maybe you’re also just a little lonely and the combination of all three of those things is whittling a hole into your chest every time you breathe. but also the sun’s up. and you’ve survived everything so far, so you’ll survive this too, even if it hurts, even if you have to survive it many times.

when georges bataille wrote, “no greater desire exists than a wounded person’s need for another wound” & when gillian flynn wrote, “a child weaned on poison considers harm a comfort” & when ocean vuong wrote, “sometimes being offered tenderness feels like the very proof that you’ve been ruined” & when lisa m. basile wrote, “did you inherit a sickness? did you blame god? do you believe in god? do you believe in yourself? are you still on fire? did you ever put out the fire?” & when stephen a. guirgis wrote, “why didn't you make me good enough so that you could’ve loved me?”

Just so you know, when I say I’m a dyke I don’t just mean I’m a lesbian. Dyke is a gender. Dyke is a political view. Dyke is an attitude.

I think I have a controversial thing to say: I love and recommend (have recommended) Stone Butch Blues as much as the next person, but there's other books from and about butches that get slept on because people only know Stone Butch Blues

[goldxnfemme-deactivated20241112]

Here's a couple that I recommend all the time:

Butch is a Noun by S. Bear Bergman

Tomboy Survival Guide by Ivan Coyote

No, but like Ivan Coyote for example has so many books and I have some of those here
