so there's a twitter (X? xitter??) thread about how cis people experience gender dysphoria and euphoria, about how it's not just a Trans Thing.

and i was reminded of one of the first times i tried explaining gender euphoria to one of my cis friends in more words than "it's when i feel good!"

i remember telling her about how i know when i feel euphoric because it shoots through me and makes me feel better instantly. about how it's a feeling of looking in the mirror and feeling like i'm finally actually looking at Me. about how it's more than thinking i look objectively nice but rather that i don't feel like i look like a girl. about how yes i get gender euphoria when i put on a sick ass outfit and put effort into my hair & makeup & accessories, but sometimes i also get it when i'm right out of the shower and my hair is falling in that "teenage boy heartthrob" way that makes me look androgynous.

but more than i remember explaining those feelings to her, i remember the look on her face as she realized she felt those feelings to. not over the same things, but she told me about how when she wears X outfit or does her hair in Y way she feels very Her. and how that feeling is so nice and how she didn't realize that was gender euphoria.

and i think that's the root of the issue, that people don't have words to describe those feelings. almost everyone experiences gender euphoria in one way or another. but we don't have mainstream words to describe it, because we've somehow managed to convince people that gender euphoria and dysphoria are uniquely trans experiences when they AREN'T.

i think it's so important to have language to describe these feelings because, for me at least, gender euphoria is more than "i look nice" or "i feel good," it's about "i feel like Me. i look like Me." it's more powerful to have precise language.

I dont talk about Will Wood a lot but I want to more because i like his music and i just kinda wanna talk about the music i like more

Im listening to The new normal right now (Normal album 2024 remastered) and it’s so good, i like the original one but i think i might like this one just a tiny bit better.

The songs that Will Wood makes are just so catchy and are nice to listen, they either make me feel high or depressed and i enjoy the experience a lot :D

I just started listening to him in like February but I already have good memories of me and my friends listening to Will wood on the track and syaing his name multiple multiple times, (over a thousand) and my favorite memory is pulling up his music to listen to it and my friend screaming straight into my ear “WILL WOOD? YOU LISTEN TO WILL WOOD!!”

So that was fun, anyway, Will wood cool :D I completely forgot where i was going with this but i just wanted to say i like the remastered Normal album and it made me giddy :D

Im not a Taylor Swift fan but the entire time I was listening to the album all i could think was “Is this how Swifties feel when Taylor swift drops a new Taylors version?” Which is weird because ive never thought of things like that but you know. Listening to it was really fun! And it was cool to be there for my first Will Wood album drop

You ask for a cat? I deliver.

Feel her purring gently reverbating...

Also a beautiful Scottish landscape...

It's a personal calming effect to me...I love all this green and pretty nature. ❤️

You are a sweetheart. Your cat is gorgeous and Scotland is beautiful - big fan of soft greens 💚

hello @drwninglessonz how are u today

[imsodunwiththis]

All you know is happiness… No, no you don’t you also know hate, and pain, and violence, and danger, and anger, and unkindness, and unfriendliness, and fear, and terror. You knew first the hate of a human hand and the ignorance of the human tongue and you will have yet to learn human love.
