It truly hurts so fucking deeply how much the LGBT+ community hates transmasculine people. I never thought my own community would make me feel even worse than my own mother and sister did.

Okay. Let’s do this one last time. Istg I’m gonna make that full post of What These Terms Mean soon, but here’s a longer post than normal from me.
Here’s how I view Syscourse Labels.
Pro-Endo Beliefs (based on my experiences):
(Part of this group says) You can be plural without trauma. You can have a system (aka have alters/headmates/people in your head) without trauma.
(Part of this group says) If you do not support that idea, it means you are Anti-Endo.
(Part of this group says) If you support some aspects of the community, but not all aspects, then you are Anti-Endo, or else buying into Anti-Endo Propoganda.
(Part of this group says) If you reblog from anyone who has ever been or currently is using the label Anti-Endo, then you are Anti-Endo.
(Part of this group says) Having some split spaces is good, and having some shared spaces is good.
(Part of this group says) Why do we need split spaces? We’re all plural! If you advocate for split spaces, you are Anti-Endo, or else buying into Anti-Endo Propoganda.
(Part of this group says) If you do not openly use the label Pro-Endo, then you are Anti-Endo. This doesn’t include your actions, just the label you use. If your actions support endogenic systems but you don’t call yourself Pro-Endo, then you are still Anti-Endo or an Anti-Endo Supporter.
Anti-Endo Beliefs (based on my experiences):
(Part of this group says) You cannot be plural without trauma. You cannot be a system (AKA have alters/headmates/people in your head) without trauma.

(Part of this group says) Why do we need shared spaces? We’re not the same! If you advocate for shared spaces, you are Pro-Endo, or else buying into Pro-Endo Propoganda.
(Part of this group says) If you do not openly use the label Anti-Endo, then you are Pro-Endo. This doesn’t include your actions, just the label you use. If your actions criticize some of the endogenic community but you don’t call yourself Anti-Endo, then you are still Pro-Endo or a Pro-Endo Supporter.
Syscourse Unaligned, as I personally use it for myself:
You can be plural without trauma. You can have a system (aka have alters/headmates/people in your head) without trauma. (Pro-Endo Belief)
CDDs need to be focused on in CDD spaces, and not everything needs to be about Endogenics. (???).
Pro-Endos and Anti-Endos are not monoliths, and each individual should be heard, regardless of the label they use. (???)
Split and shared spaces are both good. (Both Beliefs)
I criticize some of the aspects of the endogenic community, particularly on the pro-endo side of things. I have trauma regarding that community that makes using their label a trigger for me. (This makes me Anti-Endo)
I criticize some of the aspects of the CDD community, particularly on the anti-endo side of things. I have trauma regarding that community that makes using their label a trigger for me. (This makes me Pro-Endo)
I still believe syscourse to be important, and thus do not want to stop syscoursing. I want to have important conversations. (This makes me not Neutral.)
So… what am I? A pro-endo with anti-endo beliefs? But to so many people, those beliefs are completely opposing (which isn’t always the case), and for me personally, I have trauma regarding those labels.
No group is a monolith. No group is entirely black and white.
I am not Pro-Endo, despite the fact that I believe in endogenic plurality.
I am not Anti-Endo, despite the fact that I have some harsh criticisms of the Pro-Endo Community.
I am Syscourse Unaligned because I do not use either label. That’s it.

I wanted to put put a tiny psa. I've switched to beta editor on all my blogs but, I didn't have the option to covert on one of my blogs to beta until late January. Which was significantly later than my other blogs. I just wanted to bring this to people's attention so they can be aware that some people who are delaying their switch over may not being doing so intentionally.

please stop scrolling and take the time to read this.
i don't think people understand the extent of the horror happening in palestine right now. "death" means nothing to people because of desensitisation so let me just tell you what white phosphorus is. it's being used in israeli munitions and has been and will continue to be fired across gaza and the palestinian borders.
white phosphorus burns when it comes into contact with oxygen (at nearly 800°C or 1500°F. the human body can withstand ~50°C for reference.) the air you breathe in ignites and it is near impossible extinguish. it sticks to clothing and skin and is very difficult to remove because it will continue to ignite in air. it burns flesh up to the bone and even past the bone because it penetrates tissue and is absorbed VERY easily. if you inhale it it'll destroy your respiratory tract and lungs. it can cause failure in multiple organs including the liver, kidneys and heart. it is being released in one of the most densely populated places on earth.
the only way to treat someone exposed to white phosphorus is to submerge them in saline or water and to pick out the substance with forceps, and when you undress a wound the substance can re-ignite. this is just ONE weapon that is being used to kill palestinian people right now. palestine does not have access to medical care, humanitarian aid, power, or internet. their hospitals are being bombed. gaza is one of the most densely populated places in the world with over 50% of the population being children. many children are the sole survivors of their families. there are videos of children experiencing panic attacks and symptoms of ptsd. the fact that israel has committed war crimes in plain sight means that we can only imagine what will happen to the palestinians in complete darkness.
israel has and will continue to deny this. your interests and fandom will still be here, you will wake up tomorrow morning and see your friends and family, but an entire nation of people are being wiped off the map. being silent is being complacent. reblog, spread information, tell people in real life, attend protests, sign petitions, call your government offices, at the very least be angry and upset and horrified because once you become numb and indifferent and hopeless the oppressors will have already won.
what's happening right now is more than a genocide and once it becomes a part of history we'll wonder how the world let this happen. genocides have been part of all nations. just because it is far away does not mean you don't have to be concerned. the fact that YOUR governments and YOUR idols and the people around YOU are supporting the mass eradication of an entire group of people should scare you. it shouldn't make you feel anything less than sick and angry and disgusted. DO something about it, no matter how small you feel your voice is, because palestinians no longer have one.
[edit] links to some helpful reblogs: one & two
post on how you can help palestine
learn about palestine with this masterlist of info
+ a further reblog of mine
[edit 2] about palestinians "not having a voice" at the time i wrote this post internet connection was cut off entirely and even journalists weren't able to report for a period of time — that is all i meant by that. they of course have a voice and i never meant to undermine how people are risking their lives in gaza to get information out there and i apologise if thats what people took from it, it was not my intention but it is entirely my bad. please continue to spread information and updates from gaza as they come.

so while i was writing the book, i became violently suicidal.
this was mostly due to the fact that i had a very bad reaction to some meds and my brain stopped producing any serotonin. also i was in the last semester of grad school where it's actually illegal to feel anything but dread. so it wasn't going well.
somewhere in the fog of it i became aware i needed help. nobody was taking clients or my insurance. i didn't want to do inpatient care - it wasn't right for my needs. there's not really an "in between" stage between "inpatient" and "no care," but i was trying to do the right thing. i was trying to activate the chain of command that was my emergency plan. i knew i needed help now.
i used betterhelp.
i know, i know. i'm a straight-A student and so smart and so clever, how could i ever use something so blatantly bad. to be honest with you, i didn't feel particularly keen on it from the getgo - things that seem too good to be true usually are. also, if something online is free, the price is usually your privacy.
the thing is that there was kind of a global pandemic happening at the time and i worked 5 jobs alongside of being a fulltime student and also like writing a book on the side. it is a miracle that i even thought about getting help. i would love to tell you i had the mental wherewithal to like, process whether this was the right choice for me. mostly i was desperate. i was so suicidal that i was trying to find a reason to stay inside of fortune cookies. i was the kind of suicidal that looks like splatterpaint. i hadn't been that bad in an entire decade.
they took my data. i gave them it freely. somewhere out there, they have a dossier on me. on everything i survived. my story in little datapoints, scattergraphed beautifully.
the first woman told me that really i should be grateful, because (and this is a direct quote): "at least you're not anne frank." i said that i felt that statement was antisemitic, as anne frank's life and experience shouldn't be compared to like, a nonbinary lesbian in western massachusetts. the therapist said that i should try to use lucid dreaming to try to picture myself in an actually scary situation, like running from nazis.
i applied for another therapist. i was willing to accept the possibility that there was a bad apple in the bunch. the next therapist and i even laughed about how inappropriate that statement was. and then, in our next session: the new therapist said if i was struggling with body image issues, i should just work harder on my appearance. she spent 3 sessions in a row talking about how she was grieving, and made me memorize facts about her grandmother so "she can live on through my clients."
i am a three's-a-charm kind of person. okay, so what if the last person made me uncomfortable. i figured it was just a misunderstanding of priorities - she had felt she was sharing with me, i had felt like i had to take care of her. i applied for another therapist.
the last woman asked me to help her pray. she bowed her head. i stared at her, frozen, while she said: lord, i beg you: cure her. take the pain of being gay away from her.
i spent somewhere between 2.5 and 3 months on betterhelp. in that whole time, i was not getting the professional help i so desperately needed, even though i was fucking trying.
in the end, i survived this because i finally could get off the meds that were literally killing me. a request for a real therapist finally went through. i survived because my friends saved my life. because nick let me sob myself dry in his arms. because maddie took the razors out of my room when i asked them to. because grace slept over in my bed for like 3 weeks in a row since nobody trusted me not to hurt myself when i was alone. i survived because i got fucking lucky. because even when i was desperately suicidal, i was too old and too self-aware to take "you need to be prettier" as good advice.
the thing is that there's a 19 year old me who isn't like that. who would have heard "just think about how grateful you should be" and said - oh, i see. i would have assumed that is what it means to be in therapy: the same thing my abusers used to tell me. that i am just pretending and lazy. that i am ugly and unworthy.
betterhelp positioned itself to take advantage of an incredibly vulnerable community. it preys on desperation. it knows it is serving people who are not doing well mentally. it saw that there is a huge need for real, immediate, compassionate mental health care: and then it fucking takes your money and privacy.
i still get their ads on instagram. last night i watched as a woman in a pool pretends to talk to a different woman. they discuss her anxiety.
there's a 19 year old version of me, and she didn't survive this. she was too tired, and drowning. i almost fucking died. this thing almost fucking killed me.
in the ad, the woman playing the therapist takes a note on a clipboard and then nods once, sagely.
i have to admit it's a pretty scene. the steam and light coming off the pool water lands on the actresses. like this, it almost looks baptismal, holy.
