amy schneider drawing correlation between being trans and her aptitude in Jeopardy won't leave my mind. she basically thinks that the years of being forced to suppress her feelings and realisations that she is trans completely crumbled her trust in all of her instincts, giving her an elevated need to understand everything objectively very deeply. relying her whole perception of the world on facts separated from the self. my experience is completely the same yet i only realised when she worded it so well on the Gender reveal pod.

#if you see me reference this idea you know where i got it from. #this was part of like every longer conversation i had at one point. like i have insane problems withh overthinking and #objectivity obsession and there is very much so a correlation between them and puberty hitting.

confusing comic about existing as a trans person during confusing times of trans visibility.

#been making another short comic about old/new pre/post thinking and identity #but it's been slow. plus... it discusses caitlyn jenner as an apolitical example quite heavily and now im second guessing #my want to include her so heavily but idk. i think it also is part of my ideology to not exclude completely even someone like her #butttt anyway have this once more i'm only bloggin bcs i just a few days ago had one person thank me i shared this so there #still seem to be folk who are searching this thing :D

My copy of mutilation grindset arrived today. When I initially ordered, it was entirely because of the recent august comic and I knew nothing else of your work - I was simply moved, and suddenly I needed it.

I'm reading through the rest now, particularly the essay that begins with the Preciado quote and I'm so very grateful I've been able to read this, despite not expecting it. I hate gender - when it comes to me, personally, and my inability to align myself with it. I've always been trans, but not trans in the way I felt was expected of me, somehow incorrect. Always looking at trans people who seemed to be able to pick a side and fully commit to it, and cis people who never needed to, and finding myself wanting *that* surety but unable to take it.

I think I can be whatever I am, though. I think I'm going to stop searching for the labels that fit my gender, my sexuality, my everything.

You've helped me immensely on this random Thursday of no particular importance, slipping through my letterbox with the usual ads and flyers. I'm still a work in progress, but now I feel I actually know what I might be progressing towards.

Apologies if this is too personal for your ask box. Just know you've helped me, I don't need a response.

I'm very grateful, thank you.

this ask has been sitting in my inbox for a long while because i didn't know how to word how much it means to me. thank you so much for sending this! one thing that's really important to me is to change the idea of identity only being solid and secure when labeled.

tho the increasing popularity of "queer" as an identity is a sign of progress, having no label is still often misinterpreted as questioning or not discussed at all. it took me years to finally understand that feeling connected to labeling is a subjective and not objective experience, that i propably wouldn't ever find "the right one" since to me labels in themselves felt foreign. even though just like you, i have always and will always be trans. obviously i don't think everyone should be non-label, but i've actually been a bit surprised how rare gender abolitionist etc. thinking is among queer discussion. though maybe im not looking in the right places, or interpreting these very subjective and hard to word ideas wrong. but anyways, so glad to find someone who relates to some of these thoughts, this text is very touching :,,,3 sending love <3

my life has many times been altered for the better by queer people before me, so it's very meaningful for me to see myself now take my part in the chain of information and ideas. thank you again <3 going to prolly write more about labels and why we have this craving toward them, i think it relates to western thinking, assimilation obsession and medicalisation, at least.

main characters of a comic I'm hoping to dedicate a lot of my time to this year

#currently still untitled. i've been wanting to make a comic for so many years but been kinda too fucked in the head to #actually bind myself to a long project. we'll see how this one goes. not putting any pressure on myself. #it's a old-ish concept which sparked first from that old skephalo au i had. but is nowadays more about actually learning to live #i may hav posted angel here before.. but yeah more to come some day. next up is opening my etsy store again :'''D #but yeeahhhh happy new year everyone! <3 #angel demon dichotomy as always babeyhhh
