i love it when a girl is traumatized and put in situations that leave her no good options or even options that even make half a lick of sense, so all she can decide is which way to go off the rails. it's one of the most relatable ways a girl can be, and that's why i love quess and flay et aliae

you don’t “need” anything to be the identity that you are but you “need” to be given the autonomy to make choices that give you, like, a pathway out of passive suicidality and complete apathy towards your own flesh
you don’t “need” hrt to be trans but you may need hrt because you are trans

Many, many people focus their understanding of transphobia on cis women and cis women’s movements, such as TERFs, GCs, or anxiety around “female spaces.” To the point that cis female gender anxiety gets blamed for the entirety of transphobia.
I do not like this! It is misleading and it is misogyny.

at one point, when I would play hard games, I would berate myself for mistakes with things like "that's so stupid!" or "why do you suck so much?!"
now, I respond with things like "come on, you can do better than that" and "that's okay, keep trying!"
even little things matter

I cannot overstate the value of developing an intrinsic sense of self-worth
I think we should see it as both an important life skill generally and also an especially crucial transition skill because of how much it will help you navigate the world

transition should not be regulated or controlled. HRT should be over the counter and affordable. letters should not be required for any treatment or surgery.

Like if the idea that you still, regardless of what gender you are, still have internalized misogyny to deconstruct, offends you, that’s a great indication you haven’t even started.

I dont want to hear shit about how trans people need to accept "reasonable compromises"
puberty blockers instead of hrt for minors *was* the compromise
2 years hrt and hormone testing requirements for trans women athletes *was* the compromise
taking more of our rights away is not "reasonable"

A lot of us come from abused childhoods. We're eager to find anyone, anyone at all who will show us love and kindness. It makes us very vulnerable to anyone who knows what to say or do to earn our trust and there is such a danger in how easy it is to betray us. After all, who will rescue the tranny?

I think one of the best things you can do is to help reinforce a trans girl's confidence and help her believe in herself so that she's better equipped to deal with all the people who are going to try to exploit and abuse the hell out of her because there's a lot of people out there hunting for her

I'm gonna gripe for a second: there's an attitude I've seen passed around the net which often villifies transfems for loving cutesy things. Gee, I wonder why a lot of girls love anime and headpats and so on? We're all embracing that which we've been denied, there's no evil plot to it. Fuck off

And to be clear, FDR campaigned on "we are gonna throw shit at the wall till stuff gets better & something works" and he won *4* terms.
The "pragmatic" and "strategic" electoral strategy, is to admit that you don't know everything but you're gonna try stuff till it works.

After FDR, republicans didn't regain the house again until like, the bush years.
"moderate" dems are committed to making sure that republicans are never sidelined like that again, because all of their donations bank on them being the 'swing' vote.

a democratic edge to yuri being for all: that for the first time in history the female subject in art is not restrained by the particularity of subordinate femaleness but in becoming a poetic couplet (woman begins not at one but at the relation or rhyme between two) gains a universal subjectivity

In the transphobic narrative gender-conservatives traffick in, the transfeminine spectre is a rapacious other while the transmasculine is a corrupted innocence. The dehumanization of both is distinct but linked; transmasculine people are regendered as a patriarchal resource to be protected.

@sayladarkmode.bsky.social acutally just informed me that he said in an interview that the mech design is a combo of wing and x, which makes perfect sense because virsago is how aegis is an altron
