Labour is going to win the general election and then say this doesn’t go far enough.

I've seen several sites mention this, it's real.

Do not make the MISTAKE of thinking you need to put your side forward. The Guardian is transphobic as fuck, and will twist your words. DO NOT ENGAGE.

By the way, this is in the aftermath of the Cass Report, and the goal will be to make Trans DIY something that needs to be regulated or stamped out. DO NOT ENGAGE.

Hey btw, here's a piece of life advice:

If you know what you'd have to do to solve a problem, but you just don't want to do it, your main problem isn't the problem itself. Your problem is figuring out how to get yourself to do the solution.

If your problem is not eating enough vegetables, the problem you should be solving is "how do I make vegetables stop being yucky". If your problem is not getting enough exercise, the problem you should be solving is "how do I make exercise stop sucking ass". You're not supposed to just be doing things that are awful and suck all the time forever, you're supposed to figure out how to make it stop being so awful all the time.

I used to hate wearing sunscreen because it's sticky and slimy and disgusting and it feels bad and it smells bad, so I neglected to wear it even if I needed to. Then I found one that isn't like that, and doesn't smell and feel gross. Problem solved.

There is no correct way to live that's just supposed to suck and feel bad all the time. You're allowed to figure out how to make it not suck so bad.

You can change your name, it doesn't matter how often you change it, it doesn't matter however many names you go by, if you want to, you can change it, you could change it every week, every month, every year, it doesn't matter, you can change your name, don't feel bad about it

#not fandom #gender stuff #queer stuff #yes!!!! #ngl the sheer gender euphoria of having people address me by a chosen name #(and also of getting to casually chat with people in a non-gendered language) #has just been so Good for me #even if it meant that at some point i got too much of a taste for it for the gender feelings not to insentify af #hence the itch to trans my gender even further even if i had little to no idea initially how to do it in practice #(especially when you're still closeted) #have made less progress than i would've liked since that itch first appearead. but i'm still happy with what i did made #and excited to carry on on this journey and keep finding myself #tldr sometimes even sth like a name change (even if only within particular safe circles) can feel fantastically validating and inspiring #so yeah go for it

being incredibly fatigued but not actually sleepy is one of my least favorite things ever actually . don’t wanna go to bed but brain fog is too bad to focus on anything and body is too tired to move :/

#not particular fandom #but also #the gray house #narrative #does a hell lotta plot happen in the gray house? nope #i mean there are obviously some intense more plot-focused moments every now and then #but mostly the characters are simply living their life and Vibing #they just do it in such a weird assortment of equally raw and genuine and soul-piercing ways #that you can easily gobble up a thousand-page long book of just that #and then never be able to forget it bc it has made a home in your very heart #and you wouldn't have it any other way

They say you die three times, first when the body dies, second, when your body enters the grave, and third, when your name is spoken for the last time. You were a normal person in life, but hundreds of years later, you still haven’t had your “third” death. You decide to find out why.

Solar Eclipse Shadows

These solar eclipse shadows form due to the distance between the sun and the leaves on the trees. The distance and the proximity of the leaves to one another cause for a "lensing" type effect, making the eclipse shadow clearer to the human eye.

aphobia is not just harmful to asexual and aromantic people. it hurts everyone when society tells people they are not complete without a romantic partner. that they are aren’t a whole person if they aren’t in love and sexually desirable. people spend some of the most fulfilling parts of their lives feeling like they’re wasting that time because they aren’t in a relationship. they spend so much time looking for “the one”. time that could be spent learning, travelling, building a found family. they miss out on meaningful relationships, on soulmates, because they are told that person can’t be the most important person in their life. it devalues the support that’s found in community, it devalues the love found in friendships, it devalues the importance for living for oneself.

nasa: we're going to shoot three rockets directly at the sun during the total eclipse. for study and research purposes.

me: oh cool

nasa: we have named the rockets apep. this stands for atmospheric perturbations [in the] eclipse path.

me: oh cool

nasa: apep is also the ancient egyptian deity of chaos and darkness, who ceaselessly seeks to extinguish the sun. we launch these rockets directly at the sun in the name of apep.

me: oh... cool?
