ok but fr cis ppl are like "oh so you were a boy but now youre a girl? ill make sure to remember you as primarily a boy who i have to remember to call a girl" instead of just "you are a girl". this is why my dad Accidentally misgendered my friend who he had only ever known as a trans girl, and other such behaviors. in this essay

My zine in the lineage of Fucking Trans Women by Mira Bellwether, about my anatomy as a trans woman who's had nullification surgery. It started as a user manual for a partner but I believe it has value beyond that.

my little cousin confidently declared that mother nature had a counterpart named daddy electric and i feel like this concept needs to be explored

[professionalchaoticdumbass]

had a dream that there was this new tiktok trend called "scrubbing" where people would take images of fictional characters and put them in images of bathtubs and drag around transparent pngs of soap and brushes with their tiktok art tablets and like liquify tool their hair down to mimic giving them a shower. and people would get into flamewars in the comments of every single video over the types of soap they picked and if the images had decently removed backgrounds and if they got soap in their eyes. and it got onto the news because it turned out everyone doing the trend was doing it compulsively like they physically couldn't stop and each video was a solid few minutes long because they were just collectively obsessively recording themselves fake-showering these fictional characters and arguing about it online

putting, idk, quasi connectivity halfway down a minecraft redstone iceberg is just disingenuous. at MOST it’s second level. you should be putting shit like directionality and zero-tick farming there and even that’s a bit of a stretch.

most of the time i cannot stand those “iceberg explained” videos because they’ll fill half of the third category (meant for semi-obscure things that are mainly familiar to people with a dedicated interest) with like. direct interpretation of the source material

actually yeah you’re completely right, there is a third group of “wants to get on HRT/medically transition, but can’t for other medical reasons” who also have unique needs. like, some people cant get surgery, some people might have allergic reactions to HRT, some might have really severe needle phobia, etc. unfortunately with a lot of these it makes helping someone get on HRT damn near impossible because of all these complications (sometimes the only thing you can do is “hope for a miraculous breakthrough in HRT science”) but they will still deserve the same level of support and respect as any other trans person.

thats one of the points i’m trying to get at, like a lot more good could be done if post-transition people actually gave assistance to people trying to medically transition instead of throwing an “uwu you’re so valid” blanket on all of us. bare minimum, write the process down and share tips.

it really bothers me when people say things like "support people who can't get/don't want HRT!!" because "people who don't want HRT" and "people who want HRT but can't get it" are two pretty distinct groups with different goals and who need different types of support

[professionalchaoticdumbass]

to support people who don't want HRT:

don't put pressure on them to start

don't treat HRT as a universal desire

don't treat desire for HRT as a requirement for transness (or the inverse, not wanting HRT as an indicator of being "not really trans" aka straight-up transmedicalism)

treat them the exact same way you would any other trans person: with respect, acceptance, and kindness

reduce stigma around trans people who don't want to transition medically, but still want to do so socially

help them in other areas of their transition

to support people who do want HRT, but can't get it yet:

tell them about your own experience with obtaining HRT

walk them through getting it, if the process is the same/similar for both of you

find resources for them on obtaining HRT

fight for easier legal access to HRT

give them a safety net if their environment isn't supportive (this ranges from helping someone come out to providing shelter if necessary)

treat them the exact same way you would any other trans person: with respect, acceptance, and kindness

help them in other areas of their transition

obviously this is non-exhaustive, there are many more bullet points for both that i could list. a lot of things will actually complement each other and provide curb-cut effects for all trans people. my point is, you have to recognize that these groups have both similar and vastly different goals, but you need to wholeheartedly support both if you want the trans community to flourish.

Idk if this counts as a peeve more of an art-astronomy pet peeve

but when people draw the cresent moon and where the dark, shaddowed part of the moon is they put in stars

like studdenly that part of the moon is invisible instead of just being in the shadow

like wtf

[professionalchaoticdumbass]

to be extremely clear: i support both groups and so should you. i am just a little annoyed how we get lumped into this monolith of "people not on HRT" by both cis people and post-HRT trans people

WHY ARE PEOPLE TAGGING THIS WITH CALL OF DUTY CHARACTERS X READER

what they don't tell you is that it is INCREDIBLY difficult to keep the mood during sex when you are a certified Funny Bitch, because half of the good dirty-talk timing is fucking identical to good comedic timing and it gets really, really hard to not make a joke

Shoutouts to trans people both pre and post bottom and top surgery. Shoutouts to trans people who are numerous years on HRT and trans people who aren't able to start yet. Shoutouts to trans people who don't want HRT or surgeries.

Shoutouts to all trans people, regardless of where you're at in your journey, you are valid and you deserve all the good the world can give.
