people slipping up and saying shit like “biological name” instead of “deadname” is more or less proof these people don’t actually care about real science they just want smart sounding words and i guarantee if we could manipulate chromosomes they’d abandon all pretext of science and start yammering about how people are born with a “masculine/feminine essence” that “cant be changed” like none of these people actually know the chromosomes real fuckin function and they dont care they just know they cant be changed
Man I had a great time watching this today. Heck it's been a long time since I've seriously picked up a pencil. I miss this so much, I figure I'll work harder to take up drawing again. Just a little doodle every day should help. Don't expect anything though 😅
I feel this so deeply. Down in the depths of my core.
sometimes we are childish. sometimes we do something our 16 year old self would have done, think something our 11 year old self would have thought, cry like our 7 year old self would have cried. why is this so embarrassing? why does it make us feel such shame? when you’re 20, 30, 40, are you not also every age you’ve been before? do all of your previous incarnations not still live inside of you?
Even now having grown up I still feel like I'm arguing when I disagree with someone it's so hard to shake that mentality. It can make me act a fool and feelings of desperation bubble up. It's almost physically painful.
I believe there is a difference between wanting to be right just for the sake of it and wanting to be right because it's something felt so strongly in your core that it's worth worrying about and fighting for.
Just because it can be a small thing doesn't mean it has to mean any less either. Small things can be important too.
Urgh my head hurts. I feel like I'm caught up worrying about small things.... even though as I say, they are important to me. Even so I can't help but feel like I'm bad for wanting it to go my way. Damn childhood trauma shaming me for wanting things to be done in my own ways -.-
The best thing about posting on tumblr or Twitter is that none of my family will see this shit.
I know it's the internet and to post anything is to invite comments but I've been getting really annoyed lately that I can't seem to make posts about my body without family and friends making comments on how to "fix my issues" or that I should have kids because "they are a gift".
I feel conflicted about it -.- yes they care but also I wasn't asking for advice, I just wanted to vent.
Hell even when I think I've made it perfectly clear it still can't be avoided. I just feel like everyone has started to disappear up their own ass 😕
