btw with art when people say 'youve got to do it scared' 'youve got to draw bad' 'youre not gonna know how to do it until you do it' it sounds like bullshit but its true. 90% of art is just getting over the fear that it's not going to be good enough to deserve to be made in the first place. but you're here. you're alive and, with no need to justify that, you're going to make art. it's just part of being alive. you'll spend so long worrying you aren't doing it good enough that you'll look back and realized you didn't live a single day of it.

It feels taboo as a childfree person to admit this but I actually do have concerns about who is going to take care of me when I'm old. The elder care system in our nation relies A LOT on the unpaid care labor of adult children. I just don't think that's a good reason to have kids.

"But you'll have more money!" does not completely put this to rest for me. Neither does "Buy care insurance!" Even if I can afford direct personal care, who is going to advocate for me to get it? Who is going to navigate bureaucracy for me when I'm 80?

"If you do have kids, there's no GUARANTEE that they'll take care of you when your old!" That's true, but doesn't solve my problem.

I think childfree people get very defensive about this question because its used as a kind of "gotcha!" against us, but I actually do not feel we can afford to be in denial about this reality. Based on current trends of more people in their 30s stating they intend to be permanently childfree, we are going to see a huge wave of childfree adults hitting the eldercare system at once in a few decades. Childfree people in their 30s should be advocating around eldercare NOW.

the thing about madoka magica is that it has the vibe of something that would be super overrated by annoying people who have never actually experienced the object of its homage in earnest, but no, is literally just an extremely good magical girl show with dark elements. it just keeps showing its hand over and over again, but it has so much to offer on the other side of its misdirections. i saw it when i was a teenager and i think it might have transed my gender at the time

unavoidable that you will be the villain in someone else's story. You will be painted in an unfavorable light. You will be the irredeemable one. and all of this will happen despite how nice you might usually be or how kind or how respectful or how warm. and you will just have to move on.

TTRPGs for Trans Rights - West Virginia bundle!

Over 500 (!!!!) games for $5 (?!?!?!!?!) to support a West Virginia based organization called Project Rainbow! There are so many amazing games in this bundle and it supports a really cool org.

Some info about Project Rainbow from the bundle page:

Since its inception, the project has been curated to serve unsheltered LGBTQ+ individuals to help them better navigate the housing system safely and compassionately. Project Rainbow has opened The Rainbow House in an effort to serve this community and meet this goal. Although the shelter is our community's most urgent and immediate need, Project Rainbow recognizes that there is far more work to be done. They serve as advocates for the individuals we serve, and the Appalachian LGBTQ+ community as a whole. They also work closely with partners in the housing system, health and mental health care systems to not only find solutions for their guests but to make these systems themselves more accessible for their target population.

Share this around and get this bundle!

Emergency aid request!

I've finally secured an apartment and have been making plans to make my move out of Florida and live safely and out as a queer person. But I was surprised today with an "unwritten policy" from my landlord that they will only release my key directly to me, and only on the day my lease begins. If I do not find a way to cross the country round trip by tomorrow, I am losing this apartment, and all the money I've already put into deposits, utilities, etc. And with the price of last second airfare, I am in dire need of help.

Please, please share, and any help you can give would be appreciated.

Man, I thought we were done with talking about the "gay lifestyle" as a problem back in the 90s. This is some retro bullshit.

I really, really thought that the generation younger than me would not have to deal with this bullshit. "Oh, it's not discrimination to say that we just don't want to hear about his lifestyle. If we invite a gay person to speak to our kids, of course he's going to only talk about his gayness, and since gayness = perversity and sex, well... "

This is what us Old People have been warning y'all is coming, and it's not going to stop unless we fucking stop it. This is why I am so fucking tired of the bullshit infighting, because while people are trying to "defend" the community against "ace invaders" and "transandrophobia truthers," this is what is happening. Again.

Your bullshit does not make anyone safer. The threat is not coming from inside, and it never has been. They don't want to be us, and they're not trying to become us, and they're not trying to "invade" our communities.

Fuck, I am tired.

If your game store doesn't have a Game Store Trans Gal its ecosystem is unhealthy and I don't want to be there.
