Robin :]

Life sucks sometimes, but at least there's cheese I guess!!

[your-new-big-sibling]

Hello all!!

I've got a good few years of being an older sibling under my belt, so I might as well put it to good use for this blog. Need advice? Comfort? Support? Somewhere to just pour all of your thoughts anonymously and someone to say "damn, yeah that is pretty fucked up and it sucks"? Here you go!!

Names are a weird thing, but you can call me Robin, and I go by any pronouns!

Remember, you are more than you are right now. Pain doesn't last forever, you will grow around it. There is so much for you to look forward to, so don't give up now. You got this, I believe in you.

Note: this is a safe space for everyone, and I mean everyone. Whatever your identity, you are welcome here.

practicing self care less out of self love and more for the sheer logical reasoning of it’d be kinda stupid of me to expect myself to be able to function without proper maintenance

“oh i don’t deserve rest and relaxation, i haven’t done enough, i haven’t earned it” and my car’s breaks don’t deserve break fluid because they aren’t breaking well enough to earn it. that’s what you sound like!!!!!

You still have time. Time to change your wardrobe. Time to get divorced and married again. Time to change majors. Time to learn a trade from scratch. Time to pay off debts. Time to travel. Time to love and be loved. You still have your whole life ahead. Whether you're 19 or 66. You still have so much time. But you have to take it.

Change is part of life. You are capable of great change.

You are doing a good job

[i-am-a-fish]

don't be mean to yourself that's you

[dragon-in-a-fez]

"you don't know what you have until you lose it" works for things that suck too btw. sometimes you need to experience life without something for a while to realise oh damn that was some bullshit

Just passed a church, a unitarian church, but a church nonetheless, with a sign saying "trans rights are human rights" and to the side of that it had a little lgbt+ flag.

I would've taken a picture of it, but I didn't think of doing that until we were already passed it.

Just wanted people to know about this. There's so much bad news all the time that I love to share good things when I can.

don’t make other people’s decisions for them. apply for the job you don’t think you’ll get. let them decide if you have the skills they’re looking for. tell that person you like them even though you think they’re out of your league. let them decide if they like you. stop trying to predict and control everything. bring what you have to the table. let the rest go.

*through gritted teeth* the world is GOOD. people are kind. Humans are NOT inherently selfish. you will make it through this year. recovery is possible. people you don't know yet will love you. You are going to do things you can't even imagine right now. You are going to read a rlly good book. You are going to eat some rlly good food. You are going to experience joy again. Things can get better. Situations can change. You can choose to be kinder. The world can change for the better.

A Japanese transmasc rapper named Cocona has become a Brand Ambassador for Gucci. GUCCI!!!! And he’s in Milan Primavera, a really important and fancy fashion show, strutting around with a buzz cut and all his piercings and visible top surgery scars and I’m like genuinely so emotional about this I need all of you to see this!!!!!!! 🥹🥹🥹

[spotted-tomcat]

He has been out for about 2 months, and in the time since his bandmates (as he is part of a musical group) have been nothing but extremely loving and supportive towards him, even rebranding from “Xtraordinary Girls” to “Xtraordinary Genes” as a way to support him :D

They now refer to him as their little brother and pet his buzz cut like a cat :]

I hope this can serve as proof to any trans people who may see this that there will always, ALWAYS be people out there who see you as you are and love you for it! It just takes a little time.
