I'm not okay

It's scary to be transgender in the world right now but if you're transgender I love you and we have to stick together and keep fighting and keep living and keep loving

What the Living Do, Marie Howe

[cloudbeam]

Written for her brother, John Howe, who died of complications of AIDS

[itsgonnabeanofrommedawg]

full poem:

Johnny, the kitchen sink has been clogged for days, some utensil probably fell down there. And the Drano won’t work but smells dangerous, and the crusty dishes have piled up

waiting for the plumber I still haven’t called. This is the everyday we spoke of. It’s winter again: the sky’s a deep, headstrong blue, and the sunlight pours through

the open living-room windows because the heat’s on too high in here and I can’t turn it off. For weeks now, driving, or dropping a bag of groceries in the street, the bag breaking,

I’ve been thinking: This is what the living do. And yesterday, hurrying along those wobbly bricks in the Cambridge sidewalk, spilling my coffee down my wrist and sleeve,

I thought it again, and again later, when buying a hairbrush: This is it. Parking. Slamming the car door shut in the cold. What you called that yearning.

What you finally gave up. We want the spring to come and the winter to pass. We want whoever to call or not call, a letter, a kiss—we want more and more and then more of it.

But there are moments, walking, when I catch a glimpse of myself in the window glass, say, the window of the corner video store, and I’m gripped by a cherishing so deep

for my own blowing hair, chapped face, and unbuttoned coat that I’m speechless: I am living. I remember you.

Reminder:

Eating is good

Three meals is not too much

It’s okay to eat “unhealthy” foods

You do not need to purge to feel better

Eating is healthy

You deserve to be healthy

Eating is good.

• YOU DON’T HAVE TO EXERCISE TO EAT PROPERLY

[sense8-sonder]

You do not need to “earn” your food.

May I add:

Eating is essential to your survival

- You deserve food

- You deserve food that tastes good to you

- You deserve food that makes your body feel good

To the boy who loves me:

I like ramen.

I don’t get enough sleep.

I laugh at my own jokes.

Sometimes I get sad and don’t know why.

Sometimes I will need your shoulder to rest my head on because the weight of my thoughts will wear me down.

Sometimes I won’t tell you what’s wrong because there are no words with which to describe it.

I love flowers.

I love the sound of rain.

Poetry makes me giddy.

Injustice angers me.

I can’t wear makeup to save my life.

I love children. So much.

You will have to remind me to put sunscreen on.

I love a lot of things. You will be one of them.

I will get frustrated. Be patient with me.

I will be insecure. Remind me of my strengths and call me out when I am in the wrong.

Buy me coffee. Only decaf because caffeine makes me anxious.

I love books.

I love when someone knows me intimately.

And lastly, love who I am becoming. I am not there yet, but I will be someday.

- a.k.

you can kiss me whenever you want

cons of dating me

i get jealous easily

i’m sad a lot

i will never feel good enough for you no matter how many times you tell me i am

[blackwoolncrown]

pretty shitty how baseline human activities like singing, dancing and making art got turned into skills  instead of being seen as behaviors

so now it’s like ‘the point of doing them is to get good at them’ and not ‘this is a thing humans do, the way birds sing and bees make hives’.

Hey guys please be very careful when purchasing prosthetics. He does not have any product, but will pretend to sell you anything you want — a FreeTom, an Emisil, a Gendercat, Peecock, Reelmagik. Lies. Lies. Lies. I am appalled that a transguy would actually scam other transguys in our own community. That is effed up and not acceptible. They are photos from previous postings by other transmen selling their prosthetics. Putting this on blast so that no one else here looking to purchase a real product falls victim to this. Be warned. Be aware of the postings from the same guy.

Comment here if you’ve been scammed by the same guy and provide as many details as possible so everyone can see. A police report has been filed in my State and the State of TX. I believe they are in the process of assigning a detective to the case now. 

Sorry for everyone who has been affected by this.REPLY ON FTM GARAGE SALE, NOT HERE!!

your intelligence means fucking nothing if youre devoid of empathy

[krablord]

So I found a site that does a subscription box for your period- it sends you basics like hygiene products, pain medication as well as snacks and pampering stuff to make you feel good, 

but the best thing is they have a specialty boxes, like vegan or kosher only snacks but also 

they specifically offer boxes for menstruating guys and nb folks. 

which is pretty darn cool.

it’s called bonjourjolie and I think it’s 1000% awesome tbh 

[sketchthetrees-blog]

i think this is the best thing omf

[writerpyre]

@mygenderadventures, don’t know if this is content you’d put on your blog, but I think this is fantastic.

[mygenderadventures]

I don’t tend to post non-art stuff but thanks for the shout-out anyway!!! I’m sure this will be of interest to a few people here :)

[yournewapartment]

This is such an exciting thing!!

Please don’t read the comments, some people are so embarrassingly uneducated and cruel. YNA supports our trans and nonbinary followers! ❤️❤️

[mylegendaryquotes-deactivated20]

Whoever came up with this idea is just awesome. They really take their costumers’ diets into account, like there’s so many options. Look at all this

And if they still don’t have a box to accommodate your needs, you can even order special items and ask for a box that doesn’t have anything you’re allergic to in it

Not to mention how amazing this is

I hope this service might help some of you guys
