i think when some of you say "neurodivergent" you just mean adhd and autism
A small collaboration with Ibraheem, whose campaign is still going!!
So if you have the money to spare I implore you to donate:
trans women do not only start to experience oppression or harassment when they start to present as women, and trans men do not stop experiencing oppression or harassment when they start to present as men. when you exist outside the status quo of the sex and gender binaries you experience these things constantly through your whole life, both before and after transitioning. the idea that trans women were "socialized male" and so grew up not experiencing sexism is bullshit. the idea that trans men have as much privilege as cis men and get to just stop experiencing sexism when they transition is also bullshit. both these statements are transphobic and are meant to diminish our experiences
Here's the thing though. No amount of posturing and blaming what caused Harris to lose really means anything. We live in a racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, extremely bigoted and selfish country. We need to reckon with that, not the minutia of the campaign.

something rlly fascinating about one kind of response ive gotten to telling ppl im cutting off my parents: “im sorry its come to that”. sympathetic right? its assumed that something has gone wrong, the relationship has followed a trajectory to a stage that is irretrievable (from where?), and that this stage is something i regret and would rather not have reached. that the parental bond is good, that i would obviously prefer to preserve it, and that my parents have said things or taken actions of late that have necessitated this step. in a recent attempt at contact, my mother asked “if we have done something to upset you”. i could say lots about my relationship to my parents here, but i dont want to miss the wood for the trees. that relationship was formative; i was a child, these are people that raised that child, that taught it how to be a person, as parents are wont. what if my parents have not done anything new? what if nothing has changed in their disposition to me? the problem may be precisely that, that nothing has changed. is that not the promise of the family? the infinite perpetuation of the blessed present? not the exception but the rule. this present is unbearable to me, and so i would like to change myself. im not sorry
don’t soft block me i will follow you again i’m not that bright
