martyrdom is just suicide with good pr

I appreciate all the rallying behind trans masc people today but i want to make something abundantly clear

i dont need people to "not all men" for me. i internalized this before i transitioned, but i have always understood jabs at men not meaning that all men do [thing] but simply that 99% of people who do [thing] are men. it does not offend me. i really dont care. most of the time, i agree.

and instead of getting mad at random people for venting about men, i would much rather we put our energy into reshaping trans spaces that are so hostile to masc folks. say cis men when you mean cis men. dont say that T is poison. dont conflate "trans" with "trans woman." dont create dichotomies in the trans community to exclude trans masc people. i could go on and on you get my point.

we're in this together, and everything i do is to try to bring us together without pretending we're the same. we can acknowledge our different needs and experiences without excluding eachother.

you misunderstand. i said 'virtual crime free', not 'virtually crime free'. all the crimes are extremely real

confession: i never bothered to learn the difference between seattle and portland. whenever someone talks about them i just mentally code it all as the same place

trickle-down economics is when the blood pools at the base of the guillotine

@degeneracy @islieslytherin I feel that. I need two do 2 semesters of language courses for my degree and I'm thinking of doing more chinese. But there are so many languages to choose from O.o Languages are very cool

the obvious limitation with standard english is everyone refers to themselves the same way, “i”, “me”. which is fine when people are talking to each other directly, “you”, “your”. but that breaks down once referring to others — if you don’t know someone’s 3rd-person pronouns you can use “they” “them”, but also some people don’t like getting called by they/them

the idea of a gendered 1st-person pronoun is, it helps broadcasts clearly to everyone how to respond in turn

@lemjamin @lemjamin
ia: EYE ah
mea: MEE ah
mya: MY ah
miane: MY an

yua: YOO ah
yuar: YOO ar
yuars: YOO ars

then the masc and enby ones are basically the same except replacing the “ah” with “oh” or “eh”

Chinese is honestly a gorgeous language. The writing system is awful to learn, though. That said... the writing is like. Half the beauty. Ugh. Also, speaking it is like my mouth doing a one-tongue circus, which is fun

TIL that anarchists read so much theory that cops find it difficult to infiltrate our circles

what's the fuckin deal with sportsball huh? the big men have to chase the balloon for points? they shout "sports!" loudly for scores? and then they go into the changing rooms and embrace each other? and kiss passionately? and they start to make love, their fingers tightening around each other's hips, pearls of sweat forming on their foreheads, dropping onto each others lower backs, glistening with sweat, ablaze everywhere with passion? and that's why I'm supposed to care about sportsball??
