I'm sorry I'm going fucking insane over trans people in sports issues the anti trans crowd has lost the fucking plot and then has the audacity to act like its the trannies who are ridiculous

I used to be of the "well the sports issue isn't really important to me its w/e I just don't want it to be a gateway into other transphobia" but oh my fucking god we are so far gone. The fencing shit is sending me over the edge. What the fuck.

hello kinky people in my phone, please read

this is a gentle but very sincere request to please start taking COVID seriously again if you've stopped doing so. you have the power to protect yourself and the most vulnerable members of our community.

in the US, about 1 in 10 adults report having long COVID. 79% of these people say it affects their daily activities. earlier data has suggested that trans and disabled people are most likely to have long COVID, at 11% and 12%, respectively. (source)

i have been slacking off but i can't take the cognitive dissonance anymore. taking any amount of increased precautions is a step in the right direction, but here are some actions i am personally (re)committing to:

wearing a mask (KN95 or better) at ALL times outside the house in indoor & crowded outdoor spaces—this means no dining out. (find a mask bloc near you if you can't afford high-quality masks)

being aware of the high false negative rate for at-home tests; testing twice 48 hours apart to increase accuracy if i must use them, but preferably getting a NAAT test done instead

having serious conversations about COVID with my friends, sharing the precautions i'm taking & encouraging them to do the same

masking around people i don't know the precautions of, or who don't take sufficient precautions for my risk tolerance, unless they've reliably tested negative beforehand

using a sip valve to drink when masked

using CPC mouthwash & iota-carageenan nasal spray regularly eh, turns out evidence for these is really not sufficient for me to be recommending it, please disregard that. see this article for more info.

i understand it is frustrating, exhausting, and isolating to be living under these conditions. i'm especially sad to give up being part of my local kink scene in the same capacity. but i truly feel this is the right thing to do and i'm hoping to find covid-safer ways to engage in kink. i'm posting this here because deciding to make these changes has been extremely stressful and lonely, and i'd like to feel less alone and spark some positive change if i can.

please help keep our community safe <3

call her neopussy an expertly-crafted narrative the way i want to be gripped by it

I apologize for posting more bullshit from the White House:

The department of Justice has formed a team to investigate transgender students, with the stated logic of "protecting women from gender ideology under title IX". The particular emphasis seems to be sports and bathrooms. However, this is an investigative team, and the goals of it remain extremely unclear.

This is an especially devastating gut punch when paired with the Trump administration's actions earlier this year, which added substantial barriers for reporting sexual harassment and abuse under title IX:

It is impossible to see this as anything but a siphoning of resources from investigations of sexual abuse, right into discrimination against transgender women.

This will result in an increase in women subjected to sexual abuse in academia, both cis and trans.

I hope for the safety of all of my fellow women in academia.

Wacky Tumblr challenge. Level: IMPOSSIBLE

Part 1: Compare a transgender woman's appearance or voice to another woman

Part 2 (BEYOND HUMAN CAPABILITIES): don't describe a transgender woman's appearance or voice by comparing it to a famous cisgender man, and then slap a "but a woman version" onto it

give that trans girl a lil bit of cheese

more men should be on their knees begging desperately. like in general

to elaborate on that a bit more clearly, ive been really feeling the pressure of like. media as talking point lately. how increasingly it feels the push of many things is less, "read or watch or play this to experience it," but rather "read or watch or play this, to say that you experienced it." art as a disposable commodity for an increasingly wide-scope keeping up with the joneses. and that's all i can see in really griping about how expensive the switch 2 stuff is. like, there's such a wide bank of video games as an art form. if they never made another you could play game all of your life for free. so why is it so bad the new ones are expensive on launch? because their function is not to be understood as a work but as a checklist.
