12 nominations for daring to ask the unheard of question: did you forget to consider how sad the guy could be?
12 nominations for restoring the patriarchy and victim blaming

but it’s “about grief” so it must be deep, right?

you should go out of your way to use your trans friends' names when you talk to them

they chose their names and they feel it in their chests when they hear or see it

we waited our whole lives to hear our real names and it doesn't get old

Children are fully people, not people in waiting.
Children needing assistance to learn how to communicate their needs and wants isn't an indication their capacity to assess their needs and understand who they are is less authentic. Adults misidentify our needs and who we are plenty. We change
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Have no idea what to expect with the final result, but regardless, I'm so damn proud of what I put into it. 5 months ago, I was rather resigned to the idea that I couldn't effectively translate my thoughts into words (thanks to missed dyslexia+homeschooling and spec-ing into music comp). But a few

transness is a gift. i need every trans woman to understand that by nature of their existence they have been blessed with the ability to pluck the strands of fate with their hands if they choose to. it is not always easy and it is not without hardship but every trans woman is capable of greatness.

Part of the reason I think there isn’t as much pressure around stopping ChatGPT re: suicide/psychosis as compared to stuff like Panera Lemonade is because people are inclined to blame it on mental illness versus the tech, a kind of victim-blaming mentality that fits neatly into just world fallacy

Are you questioning your gender and searching for fiction that’ll help you figure out what a transition might look like? Are you a trans woman or a femmeby who’s never seen herself on the tradition…

this is the heart of it. "you don't need dysphoria to be trans" is both axiomatic and a truism by virtue of the fact that framing transition around negativity is unhelpful when the joy of euphoria is far more notable.

when every day is full of grey clouds, you're going to be shocked by a sunny day.
the reason you don't need dysphoria to be trans is because dysphoria can be impossible to realize without first accepting your own transness

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo
