Yeah yeah I know his new album came out today, but that made me think about his discography overall; how important and deeply emotional this record + song is to me.

people have invented so many different ways of rephrasing "don't transition" to sound plausibly progressive enough to bystanders that they'll think trans people are over-dramatic for reacting negatively to it.

medical transition is permanent so you should really consider it thoroughly and put off trying it unless you know for sure. yes, just keep second guessing yourself. 6 months, 3 years, 20 years...

you might not like how you look. other people might not like how you look. you might not look cis. don't you want to be desirable? do you want to risk feeling worse and more insecure? you look so good now! we think you're so hot right now, and you wouldn't want to change your body and make it not hot to us, right?

you are so valid if you don't transition. you don't need to transition. no one needs to transition. it's just cosmetic, it's just aesthetic, it's all optional and means nothing at all. (no, of course this is unrelated to arguments used for insurance not covering transition, or doctors denying care.)

why do you even want to transition? are you trying to look cis? are you trying to adhere to beauty standards? are you doing this to look hot? that's regressive and outdated and assimilationist. (if you want us to take your politics seriously, you shouldn't transition)

it's a waste of resources/privileged/bourgeois to transition. it's kind of morally suspect that you would transition and still ask for help ever in your life. why should we support someone who's transitioning if they're obviously not oppressed anyway.

DIY HRT is too dangerous. you could hurt your body. you could get arrested. your life will probably end if you take HRT. if you can't access HRT legally, you just shouldn't take it. not for transphobic reasons!! just for your own sake <3

like when will it end

It took all my strength to not add disgraced artists with Reflektor and Yeezus, respectively. btw @socialistexan great picks, I LOVED Strange Mercy and The Rip Tide so much back then.

Figured I'd bring this repost-bait over here, because I'd love to know what albums y'all would put.

Honestly, if was hard picking just 4.

In less than one week, we witnessed the massacre of well over 700 Palestinians by Israel.

During this time we also learned that 170 of them were children all killed within 50 minutes while they slept, and many of those who survived joined the ever growing number of child amputees in Gaza, cementing its position as the area with the highest number of child amputees per capita in the world.

We also saw videos of Palestinian families in Tulkarm in the occupied West Bank being forced out of their homes in mass displacement campaigns, and similarly saw heartbreaking scenes of hundreds of other families in Gaza who face the same fate.

It's a lot.

This is not a call of despair, and I refuse to let go of hope. But at this stage, it just feels almost futile to try to "keep people informed." One thing I had promised myself years, decades ago is to never stop talking about Palestine. But who am I talking to now? There's an abundance of reporting and documentation that everyone can access. The silence is a deliberate choice. What else should I do? Do I need to walk the streets and scream that Gazans are breaking their fast with only bread and water? Do I grab people by the shoulder and tell them that the Israeli cabinet had already approved a "voluntary transfer" plan for Gaza, which is word for word what they implemented during the Nakba? How do I know that anyone is listening and recognising that the map of the West Bank is forever changed with intensified and active campaigns of ethnic cleansing? I don't even think people fully realise how gruesome the first sentence in this post really is, when Palestinian suffering has become so normalised due to it being live-streamed for 17 months and counting.

It really is a lot. Palestinians are experiencing one of the darkest times in our history and navigating an immense amount of grief. The least you can do is to not allow yourself to get used to this.

I am Mohammed, I live in the northern besieged Gaza Strip, I am 21 years old, I have always tried to create a beautiful future for myself in which I achieve all my wishes. I had ambitions and dreams, but they evaporated because of the war, but I still want to achieve them despite the siege. During the war, I lost many things, including my university, my dreams, my job, and some friends. Despite that, I still want to achieve my dreams and ambitions. I want to rebuild my life again, so please help me in that and rebuild my life. Therefore,

please donate as much as you can because that helps me a lot. If you cannot donate, tell people about my suffering.

Genuinely, posts like this helped me realize that I should at least start working towards transitioning; even in this fucked up political environment (understatement of the millenium). Straight up, I'd rather die a woman than live as a man. Even just acknowledging that I'm actually a woman is a huge boost. Everyone is right, it's not too late.

I want to be a girl so badly but I have horrible skin and broad shoulders and I’m already 19 so even if I go on E it’s too late I just. Wish I was born a girl. I’m sorry I just need to vent I’m so unhappy with everything right now

Too late?? Girl you’re so young go start hrt!! It’s not too late! Your skin and shoulders don’t define you, and they stop your from being a beautiful girl even less!
