The problem is that America has beaten down its people for decades and gotten them weak and desperate and now promises a way out, a way to transcend and rise above, through selling out their fellow man. They encourage contempt and hatred as one way ticket to not being included with the masses being death marched to poverty or imprisonment or whatever other bitter end surely awaits the people they’re told are beneath them. An embarrassingly large chunk of white men are just straight up nazis these days as a way to dissociate from the rest of the carnage around them, even if they’re broke and uneducated and from an impoverished background themselves. They’ll vote for and align themselves with anything for a taste of power and control that makes them feel a little less helpless. The same goes for minorities. They’ll punch down if they think it’ll get them somewhere, even if in reality they’re punching sideways. I don’t know what else to say, really. Everybody is so incredibly hateful. We are a loveless, disrespectful nation. We are so spread thin by our government that we would sell each other out in a heartbeat for an ounce of relief. This is what we’ve come to.

It’s not even about Trump at this point. He’s gonna get in office and do whatever he does and it’s gonna be a mess but whatever. This is indicative of deeper problem. This is just the ugly consequence of the already present reality in this country that we all just despise each other. There is no solidarity and there is no love. Trump being in office or not doesn’t change the fact that America is a breeding ground for violent hatred. Trump has given people a shining example of how to give in to the worst parts of your human nature and make it the problem of everyone around them. I don’t even know what we’re supposed to do about that. I don’t know if that’s something we can come back from. And if anything COULD be done about it, Trump certainly wouldn’t do it. Honestly, Kamala probably wouldn’t have either. We are so deeply fucked.

However, I must say, if you voted for Trump, I hope that peace never finds you. Instead, I hope clarity strikes you someday like a clap of lightning and you have to live the rest of your life with the knowledge and guilt of what you’ve done and who you are as a person.

Love yall. Shit is so bleak but the world keeps spinning until it doesn’t, I guess. We can’t count on the government for literally even a shred of progress or hope so just keep up the good fight in your own personal lives. That’s literally the only thing to be done at this point. Stay safe out there. Maybe buy a gun.

How did you get comfortable with sex and sexuality? I genuinely have a hard time with it and feel so weird for it

i don't really have an easy answer for that. sexual shame is something i've struggled with my entire life. growing up in the church, coupled with the social attitude towards trans people (specifically our bodies), i always felt as though any kind of physical gratification or pleasure was a direct violation of my body. getting raped as a teenager only compounded that. i disconnected from my body and saw it as a vessel of evil that stood between my pure soul and its interaction with the rest of the world. on the rare occasion i would masturbate, i would do it with my eyes closed because i couldn't bear to witness what i was doing to myself. every sexual encounter i had with someone left me feeling so broken. the journey to acceptance of pleasure is one of the main pillars of what perverts is about. i took my time, i pushed myself only as far as i could handle, and eventually the walls began to break. it's a very personal and complex journey that i wish i had more advice to give for. all i can say is go firmly but go carefully.

Hi ❤ friends 😊

I am so pleased at seeing the unlimited generosity and unconditioned kindness you have been giving over the last 330 harsh days of war ❤⚘

Your human support, no matter how small it is, brings much happiness and comfort for families in need. 🖐❤

Your donation eases the painful moments of the war 🤍 and relieves the tragic 😥 sufferings of the people of Gaza who have been going through the saddest and most painful😭😭 experiences they have ever had. Life in here is incredibly getting harder and harder either on the level of safety and peace or on the level of livelihood sources. Every single thing has become a burden and a load over our shoulders. You may wonder how possible a person in Gaza can't afford their needs and necessities. The answer is " the vast majority of the people in Gaza lost every single possession and 🇵🇸 belonging on the first days of the war and became displaced and homeless in the streets of the alleged safe neighborhoods in the Middle or the south of Gaza, adding the fact that all breadwinners have become jobless and with no source of living income amidst the rising prices of any item necessary for staying safe and alive. It is unbelievably😭 harsh and tough.

Safety and peace are all what we are dreaming of at the moment in addition to securing the least essentials and necessities of our

daily life. We don't need to entertain nor enjoy our time. Our life is filled with sorrowful events and heart-breaking situations.🍉❤🖐

I am asking you , my friends , to keep supporting my family who is full of hope and wishes that things could be better with you.

You are our last hope after we have lost all what we had.

❤✌💚✌🖤✌🤍✌🇵🇸

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

here to remind my lovelies

it’s been on my mind as of late so i wanted to voice it to all baby gays and older queers alike, that sometimes we forget the nature of our community and how we see each other.

there’s nothing wrong with looking up to older queer figures, or wanting to teach new queers important messages and information as they integrate themselves more into the community. it is undeniable that older queers (that is, people who have identified as queer and been part of the community for a longer time) have experience and time behind them that aid with problem solving. it’s important that we respect and help each other. but i also don’t want people to see queerness as something that requires achievements. sometimes we uphold certain older queer figures because they have attained more things, engaged in more relationships, transitioned further. we begin to see queerness on a scale, where people are higher up if they have had higher engagement in a range of acts. or even, if they can describe themselves in a more understandable, definite way.

so let me say it now, you are not any less gay if you have never been in a long-term same-gender relationship. you are not any less trans if you have not socially or medically transitioned. you are not any less queer if you can not define yourself in a short sentence. there is nothing that could make you any less ‘queer’, because being queer is not a scale. it is something you inherently are, something that simply is, something that can not be measured. just as we should not look at other aspects of people’s identity and begin to measure it, saying whether it makes them less or better than another of that identity, we should not with queerness.

criticism is good, learning is good, changing is good, but do not put yourself down or think that you must do any of these things to become ‘more’ queer. you are as valid now as you ever have been and will be, accept that, love that, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise :)

trans women can be butch without it invalidating their womanhood. trans men can be femme without it invalidating their manhood. if masculine cis women and feminine cis men exist, there will always be masculine trans women and feminine trans men. if being a butch woman doesn't invalidate cis womanhood, it doesn't invalidate trans womanhood. is being a femme man doesn't invalidate cis manhood, it doesn't invalidate trans manhood. trans people are allowed to be gender non conforming, too- this delight isn't reserved just for the cisgendered.

You know what, since I'm thinking about it anyways, let's talk formalwear accessories. Most of these are traditionally menswear but a bit of gender fuckery is good for the soul, and frankly most of these are about making your mass-produced clothing fit and lay properly without having to go to the tailor.

Shirt stays: these go around your thighs to hold your shirt down, so that it stays smooth and tucked in. They're usually elastic, with 1-3 clips, and if you wear skirts frequently this is a GREAT way to make sure your top doesn't ride up. The clips will be visible if you're wearing something tight, so loose pants or skirts are where these do best. There's also an insane version that clips to your socks, but that is for lunatics. If you wanted, you could also use one of these clips to hold up thigh-highs.

These do a great job of smoothing and narrowing the waist area by keeping your shirt from bunching there.

Sleeve garters: usually metal, leather, elastic, or silk. These are usually worn with button-down shirts to adjust where your cuff falls on the wrist or hand. They're properly worn on the upper arm, and you pull the fabric of the sleeve above the garter until you cuff is where you want it. Because this creates a puff of sleeve at the bicep, it also broadens the appearance of the shoulders. It's great if you're working with your hands or if your sleeves are often too long for your preference.

Waistband clip or belt adjustment clip/buttons

Three different ways of tightening the waistband of a pair of pants or a skirt. You're not going to get more than an inch or so tighter without weird bunching, and for most of these you'd want them to be hidden under a shirt or jacket, but they do the job if that's something you're having issues with.

Collar pins: There are so many fun ones out there, both with and without chains. They're not terribly practical, though the slight weight may help keep your collar where you want it. Also consider collar tips, which pin (surprise) to the very tips of your collar points.

Sweater clips/guards: meant to hold your sweater or cardigan mostly closed. Great if your cardigan doesn't button, or if you don't like it to be buttoned all the way.

There's tons of other stuff out there like this--etsy is a great place to find this stuff. A lot of these are old solutions to the very modern problem of mass-maufactured clothes not being as one-size-fits-all as advertised, but they're also a fun way to put a bit of personality into businesswear.
