the idea of public restrooms as "women's spaces" continues to confound me. you know who I hope is in a public bathroom when I go in?? no one. I would prefer no one else be in the bathroom. and if someone else is in the bathroom I am going to ignore them as much as possible. I did not go into the bathroom to connect with other women. I went into the bathroom to piss and/or shit. it's a toilet's space, not a women's space. shut the fuck up and let trans people piss and shit in peace. let's all continue to avoid eye contact with each other and any and all interaction in the toilet's space.

heartbreak high is a lovely show as a whole but it was genuinely so exciting to see struggles that i deal with on a day to day basis that i’ve never seen in media before exemplified with quinni.

like personally, one of my biggest hiccups is when someone wants to change my plan, even in the slightest way, it can be upsetting, and not exactly being able to explain to others why it makes me so upset because it simply does.

and seeing this exact scenario happen to quinni in a way that similarly it’s happened to me in the past literally almost brought tears to my eyes.

felt very seen. anyways.

transition milestone:

a couple of weeks ago, i knocked off from my pole class where i was wearing very little, and went and got a pizza. i was like, fuck it, it's already super hot and the pizza shop is gonna be even hotter, so i'm not going to bother putting my clothes back on.

so there i was, in the middle of a shopping centre car park at 8pm, walking towards an unsuspecting pizza shop. i was wearing a sports bra, a tennis skirt with shorts underneath, and a pair of thongs on my feet. no pockets so i'm carrying the car keys and phone in one hand. wearing sunglasses because it's still dst in australia and i was driving west.

according to my wife, the only thing that was missing from the outfit to meet the sterotype was a keep cup from starbucks.

i live in a regional area of victoria, and taking a casual stroll across a fairly busy car park wearing only slightly more than the day i was born, as a transfemme who does not pass (or passes until i speak), has some very powerful energy about it.

NASA advertising "do you want to be an astronaut" to tumblr users surely means something. What have you found out there, NASA? What have you found that you believe tumblr users, specifically, are best equipped to handle?

Trans allyship leaving y’all’s body the moment a trans man has a unique relationship with masculinity/manhood and doesn’t want to look like a cis man

Step one: Identify a musical theatre nerd. No, not you.

Step two: ask them how many minutes are in this year?

Step three: wait for them to take a deep breath.

Step four: remind them it’s a leap year.

Step five: watch as math and scansion collide head on.

I bought the DVDs at the time they were being released, I think it cost like $300 in 2007 dollars.

The last time I watched Seed Destiny I think was last year.

In spite of the fact that it is objectively bad, I enjoy rewatching it every few years.

I can say that about a lot of things tbh. Stargate Atlantis is objectively bad but fun as hell to watch.

"It was bad" and "I like it" are absolutely ideas that can be in the same room together.

Time to watch Gundam SEED N'Feed (Formerly Chuck's)

Ah, Seed Destiny, the one with an ending so bad they gave it the Death and Rebirth treatment and it still came out shit.

anarchists: i hate that our lives are largely controlled by arbitrary authorities who use covert threats and overt violence to maintain their positions of power. it's really bad and i would prefer if we could all just exist without having to exert systemic power over others like that.

dozens of chucklefucks crawling out of the woodwork: explain to me right this fucking second the exact details of how you personally will maintain the supply chain for insulin, or you hate disabled people and your ideology is actually fascism
