I haven't caught up with campaign 3 and haven't been talking or blogging about it but I honestly I don't think a week has gone by without me rewatching the Imodna kiss just to unlock the secret emotions it gives me again

I like to say I'm aromantic, no scratch that I LOVE saying I'm aromantic
I'm proud of this part of me, because I've felt so isolated and alienated for so many years, and now that I know that there is an actual word for what I feel, for how I feel, for how I don't feel...of course I'm going to flaunt it

It's so interesting and so exceedingly frustrating how agab is being utilized now within the queer community as a way to isolate and sort nonbinary and genderqueer folks into binary boxes that determine their moral purity levels, and their authority to do and write and exist.
The way nonbinary writers are being put under accusation of fetishizing gay men while their AGAB is continually brought up in a way that feels like queer-space-approved misgendering.
The way feminist circles that are supposedly trans-inclusive will use the word AFAB in a way that implicitly but intentionally isolates nonbinary people who aren't AFAB from joining. It's for women*.
The way the language is already flawed and leaves out intersex folks from the conversations while focusing on a binary of sex that isn't truthful.
The constant obsessing over whether someone is AFAB or AMAB and whether or not that gives them the privilege to join, do, write, or be present in certain spaces really really concerns me. How are we supposed to dismantle a binary system of gender if we can't even move past forcibly assigning and focusing on people's genders assigned at birth?
#and yes i understand! that agab language can in some circumstances be helpful in inclusive language and in the medical world but ultimately#is misgendering and unnecessary it should be up to the person to disclose their agab not an expectation of them to give up freely#I think that inclusive language shouldnt be misgendering in nature and agab as far as i can tell should only be used in select discussions#and certainly not as a way to frame a nonbinary writer as a “biological woman” but in a way where the queer community will nod along and sa#“oh they have a point” because you used the word AFAB instead#honestly afab is the term i see used most frequently and most harmfully towards other nonbinary people who don't identify w the label#to exclude trans women and amab nonbinary people#to frame nonbinary people as “still women” because of their assigned gender at birth#also i understand its not as simple as “not using” these terms bc they still serve a purpose and are important#but as they leave the queer community and as they enter the hands of cis queer people they become weapons#i wish i could like manifest my thoughts super clearly but i really cant bc its a difficult situation#its just another example of misogyny and bio-essentialism creeping into the queer community#because the patriarchy impacts all things including our discussions of trans oppression and gender we need to stop viewing it#as a strict binary of male female and oh sometimes we'll mention nonbinary people but we're all afab and amabs at the end of the day <3#like flames literal flames#if you wanna like chip into the conversation just shoot me an ask or respond to the post i'd love to hear other peoples perspectives#im not infalliable so if i said anything you view as incorrect especially in regards to intersex folks and how you all would like to be#included in these discussions as im not intersex but am aware of how agab is a subject that leans into the idea of a binary of sex#so yeah rant over <3#retro.bullshit#rant

Clark Kent could have stopped the trajectory of Lex's downfall simply by being honest. Like dude, he's your friend, he loves you, JUST TALK TO HIM.

freshly baked bread and headscarves and watercolor paints and dried bunches of lavender and baby animals and farmer’s markets and statues of female saints and embroidery and prairie dresses and backyard picnics but not in a tradwife way, in a gay way

Upcoming Surgery
Hey everyone! I have surgery this Tuesday. It's to help with quality of life issues lingering from when I had sepsis in April. I can't work a day job and won't be able to do as much for a while, so I'd be grateful if y'all checked out my art and TTRPG work available from https://linktr.ee/bekandrew

yall this old lady craft group is the best thing ever and i want to cry thinking abt how grateful i am to have it fjfkdl i think this might be the one group that i feel wholly welcomed into and actually a real part of for the first time in my life ;-; ♡
the group leader always seems to want me to sit next to her and her daughter is always interested in seeing what im working on when she comes at the end and she also tells me abt different crochet patterns she's seen on fb marketplace or she brings in old patterns for me to look through and take what i want, and then the card maker lady is offering to give me this big old crocheted clown doll that her mum made her years ago and she immediately offered to give me a ride home without me even saying anything (so that i wouldnt have to try take it home on the bus fjdkdl), and they were all super excited for me when i told them I was able to fix my accordion, and they just... treat me like an equal and a human person and fjdksl man ... it's so nice
AND IM JUST 😭💗 about it all !!!! it all feels so foreign to me !!!! i do not know when I've ever felt so fully part of a group and an equal to everyone there !!!

retracting and being closed off abt my own caste, identity, and personal opinions in general on this site has been sooo good for me <3 a couple of years ago some of you supposedly progressive savarna clowns would hound non UC folks for talking about our experiences with caste and our opinions. you'd put us all on the spot and drag us into 'debates' that attracted the h*ndutva side of this hellsite. need u all to sit down and have a think about why u all were readily sharing ambedkar quotes and links to PDFs and quoting all the right things while talking down to bahujans.

Y'all I'm confessing to my best friend who I have been madly in love with for a very long time and I bought her a bracelet and some chocolate and a card but oh god they are so pretty and my stupid gay brain said "oh! valentine's day, that will be a good day to make a bad decision!" And so now it's day after tomorrow and I'm panicking because they're much too good for me and aaaaa she's already turned down like five guys (they're bi) and they give me so many mixed signals and they've been doing that for years H E L P.
