I Am My Own Enemy

I tell myself that everything will get better. That I will one day soon be able to transition. That the life I live is not forever. But there is nothing to show me otherwise. I work a shitty fast food job, studying for a degree that will do nothing for me. I don't go out to social events. I have no motives or wants anymore and I have no push to change this, and yet I tell myself it will change but I don't put in any work. Miracles don't happen and it's going to hurt me to continue believing they do.

I just want to be a little happier. I want to feel an ounce of normality. But instead, I am a depressed, anxious, and angry trans woman who has a hard time even being called she/her. Not because it doesn't 'feel right' but because I am aware of the difference between my presentation and the labels I choose to use. What's worse is I only hold this idea to myself but respect anybody's usage of pronouns despite their appearance because appearance does not equate to a valid identity. But for some reason, I do not offer myself the same respect.

And still, instead of changing anything, I go online to feel bad for myself when I am the own creator of my problems. I just wish I knew how to begin solving them. EDIT: Still sad but this was my 69th post, nice.

Be sure to leave a cooler of beer and a grill full of burgers, dogs, and brats out for when the dad army comes to visit your neighborhood.

It's best to approach them while they're in a group, if you engage them individually you run the risk of hearing the same 8 jokes 50 times.

Goncharov (1973) dir. Martin Scorsese

“The greatest mafia movie (n)ever made.”

i know people are joking with the "all of the deaths could have been prevented if andrey and goncharov just had gay sex" posts but some of you are taking them a little too seriously... like the tragedy is that all of the human toll could have been prevented, but, at the same time, that it was an inevitable result of the cycle of violence the characters find themselves trapped in. it's like saying "jesus didn't need to die if he and judas had just sucked each other off" like that's the whole point....

also it feels really demeaning to katya to act like her role in the love triangle was just andrey and goncharov displacing their homoerotic desires onto an 'acceptable' woman like she's a fully fledged character in her own right. andrey is fascinated by/envious of her proximity to goncharov but it's also her intelligence that he envies and finds attractive like the arthur/guinevere/lancelot of it all. and katya and goncharov's marriage has its flaws yes but they've stuck with each other through SOOO much and have so much respect and understanding of each other as people. also it was hot when she threatened to shoot him idc

how do you see someone's follower count, how do you know if you should feel better or worse than them?
