My doctor and therapist: now with this autism + ADHD diagnosis you need to learn to unmask because masking all the time will make you burn out again and feel like shit

Other people: well it's just interesting how after getting the diagnosis you suddenly start behaving like that I mean I'm not saying you're faking it's just funny how you suddenly cannot be normal like you were before

advice from dad

So, my Dad is a 73-year-old Mexican man who has lived here since he was 16. He was in Watts during the riots in 1965; in 1992, when I was in LA, as soon as the Rodney King verdict was announced, he called me, told me what was coming, told me how to stay safe. He has survived horrible living conditions, being kidnapped, physical abuse, prejudice, discrimination. He learned English, got his green card, pays his taxes, works hard, and has three daughters. 

I thought he would be devastated today.

But he wasn’t.

He saw that I was sad and angry, and he asked me why, pretending he had no idea. I almost started crying. And then he said, “no se me chicopale.” 

It means, don’t lose heart. Don’t give in to despair.

I asked him why he wasn’t upset.

He said, basically, “The world has always been this way. There are always people who are afraid, who are racist, who are awful. This is not new. And it will never go away. He won. We can’t do anything about that. All we can do is what we can do. Fight for what matters to us. Take care of each other. And don’t lose heart. And here, I got these unsalted cashews for you and a bag of jamaica drink mix and can you show me how to use the new washing machine because it’s not working.”

And, for reasons I can’t articulate, I feel a little better.

the Traveler, upon deciding that Furina and Wanderer were fairly similar, set them up to be pen pals. they've been sending letters back and forth to each other for months.

...when Furina opens her latest letter from the mysterious Wanderer, and sees how he describes the "busy little bee" Sethos, she chokes on her tea-

and then starts packing her bags immediately for her first ever trip to Sumeru because what you have just described in your letter, dear Wandy, is a crush, and by the archons she HAS to witness this-

No offense but also full offense if your first reaction to seeing a character design is to immediately tell me to change it because it doesn't fit your personal aesthetic preference then that's on you sorry

I am gonna make it through this year, and the next four, if it kills me.

I will outlive this fascist sonuvabitch if it's the last thing I do.

I'm going to survive to see things get better and drag as many people as I can with me and that is a THREAT.

I know there’s an existing post somewhere, but here’s the list of OBGYNs in the USA and other countries that will perform tubal ligation (aka female sterilization) without arguing with you

I hope none of you disappear in the coming days. Seriously don't do anything that can't be undone.

To all the trans people who see this tonight, no matter what happens, we will survive. Trans people will still be here 4 years from now and 10 years from now and 100 years from now and tomorrow. We have always existed and we always will. The world cannot unlearn about us; we are too public, too loud, too beloved, too present. Ill be here tomorrow. Please stay here with me.
