people say lesbians are unnatural but if thats true then how come every lesbian instinctually knows that after twenty minutes of making out with a girl you have to break apart to say hi to each other before continuing?

I saw this on Discord and I kinda liked the idea.
A Tumblr post by quousque that reads: "I just saw the most Galaxy Brain gender take ever, from a cis man on reddit" The post reads: "This doesn't make a ton of sense to me either. Setting aside the question of whether gender/sex is assigned or observed at birth, the gender I was assigned at birth was 'boy'. The gender I have now is 'man'. Boys and men have different gender roles, and few adults identify as boys anymore. From this standpoint, every adult has a different gender than the one they had at birth." quousque goes on to talk about this post: "Framing "girl" and "boy" as separate genders from "woman" and "man" is such an amazing take. it's a framework that accommodates and explains so many trans experiences. Some trans people never were their AGAB. Some feel like they were their AGAB, but that that changed (usually when puberty hits, which is when you start "becoming a man/woman". The accepted societal path is that girls grow up to into women, and boys grow up into men. But some girls grow up into men, and some boys grow up into women. This guy was a boy who grew up into a man, which generally works out pretty well for people. Some boys and girls grow up into people who aren't men or women, even! It's like this random cis guy skipped right over transgender 101, 102, 201, etc. and stumbled directly into Transgender Nirvana."

sapphling a lesbian life tip is that complimenting a girl on the shape of her hands is a way to appear relatively normal or maybe slightly odd and painterly to everyone else in the room while still indicating to her directly that you are deliriously slobberingly verge-of-blacking-out horny

We have published the following update to our article following an email response from the New York Times.

Trans News Network has a policy against platforming bigotry. As such, we have declined to publish the Times' statement which included blatant transphobia.
Editors' Note, 1/4/26: A spokesperson from The New York Times emailed Trans News Network the Sunday after publication, disputing various parts of the interview. We reject their disputes as unsubstantiated, nitpicking or willful misreads. We have added minor clarifications at two points in the interview alongside the transcript, which remains as published. We stand by our reporting of the interview with Sweeney, former editor and 11-year veteran of the Times. The Times also provided TNN a statement responding to the interview, which we have declined to publish due to its inclusion of overt transphobia (such as framing the existence of trans people as “fiercely contested medical and legal debates”). Even in their PR, it seems that the Times can't stop denigrating our lives and communities. We do not have an obligation to publish damage control on the behalf of a news outlet undergoing a legitimacy crisis because of their own actions.

So.. 2025. The third year in a row I’ve felt I had to leave communities. That’s still top of mind for me. I have new ones, but I can’t help but wonder when those will fall apart too. But it’s also the third year I’ve been out. The third year since I started trying to reinvent myself. 1/3

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

This is exceedingly unlikely to happen, but there is an official petition asking the federal govt to use its disallowance power to block Alberta and Saskatchewan’s trans laws. I signed it if only to help send a message and prompt an official response. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Remembered a time in grade school where we were asked to get a hair off our own head to look at it in a microscope and all the long-haired people had no problem, and I couldn't find one and had to ask one of them for theirs. I now fully understand why they had no trouble.

So I left all my remaining speedrunning and adjacent communities today. I've been sitting on this for months and I don't think I really had any good alternatives. I just need to move on.
