this is how some people on tumblr and twitter think about mutual aid and collective action
[ID a comic strip of a white woman with short hair saying "freedom" while dreaming of an apartment where she's standing in the background. a pair of legs are just in frame with the label: thinks leftist is a southpaw fister. End ID]

#the conversion rate is not like yen btw. when i say 89 reais it's the equivalent of 89 dollars. oh well!#i hate living in the global south. to be quite honest#and yeah i know it's not affordable to all americans#but god overall you're all so lucky and don't even know it#anyways who wants to buy me the essential dykes to watch out for. it's just a mere 100 reais + shipping

I'm tired of support for masculine dykes not extending towards transfeminine masculine dykes. really, there's not a lot of support extended to transfeminine dykes at all. there's a lot of transmisogyny within dyke spaces, (courtesy of a lot of transmisogyny being within Society) & we need to address this. how come boydykes are only celebrated from a transmasc, tme angle? more than that, only defended from a gender essentialist, transfeminine exclusive angle-- "trans men should not be excluded from lesbian spaces due to their afab experience." check your biases & gender essentialism, if you defend 'boydykes' on the basis of gender essentialism, with exclusion of transfeminine gnc dykes. check yourself & your biases. ask yourself what your defense for transmasc lesbians implies in the inverse scenario, for trans women. watch your language, adapt accordingly, be inclusive of trans women for once.
there are butch trans women, trans women who identify with masculinity, trans women who identify as boy dykes. genderqueer tma dykes who identify with manhood and womanhood both. the human experience is a spectrum & for every hypothetical transmasc you can envision & support, there's a transfem out there too. so what is with the lack of support, the judgement, gatekeeping, the transmisogyny?
trans women are punished doubly for not conforming to & performing femininity. extend your support towards gnc trans women with just as much, if not more valor than you have been for the gnc tme.
or, yknow--just extend your support towards trans women. there's seemingly a lack of that in our community.

trackerbees broke up and instantly became 300x more compelling like. i've seen a lot talk of talk about kristen not being over tracker but like... tracker calling kristen out on her bullshit but then dating a carbon copy of kristen (but with money). kristen essentially calling tracker a sellout leading to tracker collapsing into her arms while her new girlfriend watches. TRACKER STILL BEING DEEPLY ATTRACTED TO KRISTEN. tracker calling KRISTEN'S name when she's in distress even though nara is right there. she is FAR from over kristen and i personally cannot wait to see the juicy dyke drama that arises from all of this
#rubbing my hands together evilly#i wasnt even that much of a trackerbees guy but i am now. i am now#fantasy high#kristen applebees#trackerbees#tracker o'shaughnessey#fhjy

wait whats wrong with stone butch blues? is it a similar situation as the transmisogynistic things in dtwof? also i feel like it’s mostly transmascs not cis lesbians who like it
nothing's wrong with it in particular just like nothing's wrong with dtwof (i have a copy of the essential dykes to watch out for sitting on my bookshelf within arm's reach as i write this!) -- i just find the particular type of person who preoccupies themself greatly with the lost glory of the (white, cis, usamerican) 80/early 90s queer scene and then gets extremely sanctimonious about it when other people do not share their reverence v. grating and it is funny when they are mad online
