Reminder that every TERF supports mutilation of intersex children, it is inherent to their ideology.
They are feeling more empowered so keep a watchful eye on who is around you.
T Journey Journal Entry #3
Time Since Start: 5 days
Oily. I am nothing but oily. Like at this point I better be careful before the US tries to invaide me for “freedom”((: Usually if my mental health gets bad I know I can go one day without a shower and my hair and skin will feel fine. But now? I’m not sure that’s possible. There’s so much oil on my skin and face and hair that I’m sure later down the line I’ll have to shower twice a day. Not in the sense that I’m complaining by any means, I knew this was gonna happen I just didn’t know it would be the first thing to happen on T. Haven’t noticed much else besides continuing to feel more awake and all that. Although, have been waaaaay hungrier as of late, much to the detriment of the ingridient house Mamá and Mr. Tennessee have cultivated((:
Speaking of, hopefully talking about Mamá won’t be a part of every entry, but it does remind me of a comment she made at Christmas. Mamá being herself means Christmas is usually filled with more practical gifts, socks, chones, so on so forth, and one of those gifts were shampoo and conditioner. It’s a brand that works well for my hair but she threw in a comment about how my younger sister (who got the same type of shampoo/conditioner) and I had “gross oily hair”. Kinda threw me for a loop bc I’ve never heard her talk ab any of us like that. She meant it as a joke or throwaway comment but that was just, uncalled for.
Ok
Sympathising with my mother but at the same time
T Journal Entry #5
Days since start: 22
Today was the first day I noticed a change in body hair, my arm hair is thicker. It’s not like corse or anything and it’s just the ones on my forearms but god I almost cried this morning. My body hair is legit black but it’s always been so thin no one ever sees it, I hope people start seeing it now:) Other than that I can feel my voice dropping. It’s happening slowly, but it’s happening nonetheless. I can tell it’s happening most often whenever I sing, which is cool bc it makes singing some of my favorite songs easier:D Still need to learn how to pitch down for Chappell Roan though((:
On other exciting news, there’s a cougar who’s flirting with me. Like, deadass older than my mom type cougar, throwing big hints that she wants me. Part of me is being a little narcissist and not complaining. The other part of me is asking why she’s flirting with a man who’s closer in age to her teenage son than her, but I fear the narcissist is winning. Thankfully, I am a man of many hoes and there’s this really sweet dude who’s like, so so sooooo down bad for me it’s damn near adorable. Like “awwww you want me to choke you and call you a good boy so baaaad<33” type adorable. I’m just glad I have sexual relations where I can be more dom, I’ve always felt more comfortable like that:))
Being a trans man with trans women friends is so fun bc you’ll help them clean out their closet and they’ll be like “here take this $300 suit that gives me disphoria” and you walk out of that encounter with the nicest item of clothing you’ve ever owned
(Quds) At Microsoft’s 50th anniversary celebration, Ibtehal AbuSaad — a Palestinian employee — interrupted the event in a powerful protest against the company’s complicity in the Israeli genocide unfolding in Gaza.
Facing Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman, AbuSaad didn’t hold back: “Shame on you,” she said firmly. “You are a war profiteer. Stop using AI for genocide.”
Her voice cut through the celebration as she condemned Microsoft’s role in enabling Israeli occupation forces through artificial intelligence technology.
“You have blood on your hands. All of Microsoft has blood on its hands. How dare you all celebrate while Microsoft is helping kill Palestinian children?”
Her act of courage joins a growing wave of tech workers and global voices calling out Western complicity in Israel’s ongoing atrocities in Gaza, where tens of thousands of Palestinians — the majority of them women and children — have been slaughtered under a brutal siege.
yesterday when working with my case manager, she went through a long checklist of my comprehensive needs to refresh our treatment plan. as a part of the questions she was asking me, she asked for various areas of my financial struggles, including if i was able to afford social activities such as hanging out with friends, going to the movies, etc. as part of my necessary purchases. the question was specifically phrased as "Do you have enough money every month to be able to afford social activities?"
this was not proposed as a "luxury". the question was not phrased as "Do you have enough money every month to afford luxuries/luxury purchases?" this was listed with the necessities like food, housing, medical needs, transportation, bills, and clothing. this made me burst into tears when i realized it was considered a necessary part of everyone's mental and well being. my case manager told me that not a singular person on this planet deserves to have to "earn" the right to socialize, interact with leisure activities, or to do things that bring you personal fulfillment. your money does not, and should not entirely go toward survival and practicality. it will ruin your mental health.
to any poor person who has ever been told that they don't "need" or "deserve" social or leisure activities or that your money "needs" to go 100% toward survival: they are straight up lying to you. it is a fundamental part of your mental health. don't fucking listen to them.
it's very surreal to see posts about palestine dwindling down after the ceasefire. israel is still blocking aid to and trying to make life difficult for palestinians in gaza. we still have to continue to speak up about gaza.
in this ceasefire, many palestinians are trying to rebuild in attempts to try and return to what they had before the genocide. despite the heavy and unbearable loss of life that gaza has experienced, her people continue to try to make a better world for their children.
alaa is a mother of two young children. she wants to rebuild her house and get a better future for her children. please have heart and consider helping her out. her fundraiser has been verified.
