I feel like by framing this as dating only it misses a seperate point where I would offer every single assistance to a newly out/realized trans girl, but I wouldn't want to date her, for HER sake. It has nothing to do with anything but the fact that I deeply regret all of the relationships I entered into at that point in my life and wish I had listened to the older girls who told me to slow down and focus on myself first. In the same way that I wish I had slowed down and focused on myself in an entirely different paradigm of simply growing up. Maybe a crass metaphor, but I feel like "time since transition" is somewhat akin to adulthood, and that the first responsibility of trans women who have had a lot of time to understand themselves is NOT to start relationships immediately with their less-experienced peers, but to offer platonic and straightforward assistance and community. A lot of that can be ruined by a messy relationship while one is still figuring oneself out. In particular, I think the greatest help a closeted woman can be given is the effort to get her into a position where she can come out as herself. I dated a girl who had just barely realized she WAS a woman, and I regret it for the ways our relationship got in the way of her journey and the help I struggled to offer because of the simultaneous difficulty of navigating a relationship. It would have been for the best if I offered her what companionship and aid I could without making it romantic.

Close to half of these responses were from trans women.

Fuck each and every one of you. Every trans woman who has ever abandoned her closeted sisters. Indistinguishable from the oppressive forces of cisheteropatriarchy. Denying compassion, support, and community on the basis of appearance. Social murder in its most insidious form, just in time for TDOR so all of you can pretend to care.

Transmisognyists, the lot of you.

every once in a little while I start thinking again about how there is a little doll made in the shape of a Mynah and I go insane. someone somewhere carved and painted this little doll in the shape of a multi-ton android meant for heavy industry. because they think she's cute. because she is cute.

I feel like this is important to say regarding the current @autismswagsummit situation. (also tagging @autismswagreblogs)

From what we're aware of, two of the current Semifinalists (Donnie and Mob) have been accused of voter fraud. The poll runner responded to a few different asks about it, before coming to this decision;

There is no reason to accuse voter fraud if it's false, or to partake in it if it's true. Guys, this is a friendly competition, composed of characters we feel are portrayed well with autism, or we headcanon has autism. This isn't a battle to determine which fandom gets to see more of the source the character comes from. It doesn't mean the end of Rise or Mob Psycho or Undertale or Sonic. It just means those characters gave it their all. Like, jesus christ, all four of these guys made it to the Semifinals! That should be a celebration of itself, that your favorite character made it past all the others. It's good on op, making this decision. No matter what happens, a character will lose, and if we keep making empty accusations, then there's no winning for either Mob or Donnie. They will both be disqualified and, if op ever decides to host a second autism swag summit, i doubt either of them will make a return. Not only because of the allegations and toxicity from both fandoms but also because this has most likely put a ton of stress on op.

as not only rise fans, but as a system with a lot of rise-sourced alters, we are very disappointed in this fandom for immediately jumping the gun without proof. yes, it is suspicious, but to be shouting things without proof makes you seem like a sore loser and we haven't even lost yet. We are also disappointed that everyone immediately decided that if Mob is cheating we might as well too.

Don't fight fire with fire. If one side is cheating, let your side remain pure. If you lose, at least you lose knowing you gave it your all without being the same people the other team is. If you win without cheating, then, genuinely, we're proud of you, and best of luck in the finals.

But we need to address this.

Rise fans, winning won't give you a season 3.

Mob fans, winning won't give you a season 4.

Winning this is just for fun. It will do nothing to bring those medias back. Maybe it will, someday, but not with this competition. Yes, the reach os spreading to other people because of this competition! but thats not because you're winning, its because op, who designed this event, and let your character in because people wanted to see them.

Fight fair. Fight respectfully. Treat op the respect they deserve, too, because goddamn do they deserve it for putting up with this shit today. And no matter how this ends, whichever team loses should shake hands with the other and say, "we did our best, and so did you. now good luck in the finals, i wish you best of luck."

I really wish I could have this attitude, but for a variety of reasons I just really struggle to do so unless the person is someone I know very closely and even then.... eugh. In this day and age there are so many people out there who DO just want to hurt you for no reason and it sucks.

if i can impart any one piece of wisdom to y’all, it’s to, whenever possible, assume good intentions

assume people are trying their best, want to be good and treat others well, and that when their behavior doesn’t align with those goals, it’s because of outside factors that are pushing them to their limit

it’s hard to do, it doesn’t always come naturally, but it’s worth it

My main takeaway from Babel: In like 5-10 years Amiya is gonna be the most hardcore age regressor terra has or will ever see. like. truly legendary. girl who is going to pine for literally every step of her lost childhood. Its not even funny how much she's going to keenly feel like it was stolen from her and that she wants to reclaim it however she can.
