It's always, like, mildly annoying when people see a het trans couple and go "all that work just to be straight?" like... one, you don't know if they're straight and two, trans people don't owe you a queer sexuality to "make up" for the fact we're trans. Transhet people aren't a subtype of trans people, they're members of the trans community, and the queer one if they so desire!

feeling very gender right now so heres some new jojo related gender terms i made up hhehehhehjehhehehehe (unless someone already did these in which case aw sorry for stealing ur idea):
joestaric: a category of genders related to the joestar family. themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: stars, fighting spirit, unwavering courage, fate, family heritage, nobility, sunlight/hamon, spin, resolve, diamond, gold, platinum, healing/restoration, dark determination, growth, the characters in the Joestar family themselves, or their stands/abilities.
jojovillainic: a category of genders related to jojo villains. themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: vampirism, the stone mask, red stones, the abilities of all creatures in the Earth, being made of/turning to stone, overcoming the sun, light, wind, heat, power/standing above humanity, the feeling of a greatest high, a terrifying yet alluring aura, living a quiet life, hands, bombs, cats, split personalities, overcoming fate, achieving heaven, Christianity, the 14 phrases, the United States, calamity, the Locacaca fruit, the characters themselves, or their stands/abilities.
standic: a category of genders related to jojo stands. themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: various colors, the tarot cards, the Egyptian gods, the songs the stands are named after, parallels with the experiences of stand users, protection/standing by one's side, the stand arrow, the devil's palm or wall eyes, stand cries, the thematic significance of stands, requiem stands, the stands themselves, or their abilities.
there is great overlap between these categories, so one may identify with one or multiple. not everyone with a gender that fits these categories necessarily has to identify within these categories (for example, not all stargenders have to identify as joestaric but certainly can if they feel that their gender is connected to jojo). it's all a matter of what you feel comfortable and happy identifying yourself as!
keep reading for part-specific categories cause i'm enjoying typing these:
phantombloodic: themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: sunlight/hamon, nobility, vampirism, the stone mask, zombies, gothic vibes, fire and ice, beginnings, fate, sibling bond/rivalry, the anime's soundtrack, or characters/locations in phantom blood.

stardustcrusadersic: themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: great journeys/transport, deserts, vampires, stars, platinum, power, stand awakenings, culmination of fate, the anime's soundtrack, or characters/stands/locations in stardust crusaders.
diamondisunbreakableic: themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: slice of life, small town life, diamonds, healing/restoration, hairstyles, admiration of a savior, wanting a quiet life, the anime's soundtrack, or characters/stands/locations in diamond is unbreakable.

steelballrunic: themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: horses/jockeys, racing, spin, the golden ratio, steel balls, one's own disability/trauma, nails, white mice, cowboy yaoi, Jesus's protection, alternate realities, dinosaurs, the anime's soundtrack when it comes out eventually, or characters/stands/locations in steel ball run.
jojolionic: themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: fruit, search for identity, search for identity/belonging, equivalent exchange, bubbles, sailors, rock humans, calamity, the anime's soundtrack when it comes out eventually, or characters/stands/locations in jojolion.
jojolandsic: themes of genders in this category include but are not limited to: rain, lava rocks, wealth, stealth, other themes that will eventually be revealed in the story, the anime's soundtrack when it comes out eventually, or characters/stands/locations in the jojolands.

i love my cishet straight girl allies very much but. my favorite of their reactions they’ll meet like their second lesbian ever and their first thought is always “oh, i know another lesbian! let me set you two up!” and (in my experience) it never works out but i love when their first instinct is to hook their lesbian friend up it’s very funny to me
now on the flip side my least favorite straight girl ally behavior is when you first come out as a lesbian and they respond with how they’re straight but have kissed girls while drunk before and are 100% certain this is a supportive response (not that it’s not, but you get it)

I made a set of pride badges featuring some of the less popular Pokemon.
Some of us folks have a harder time finding their place in the LGBTQ+ community because their own experiences or presentation don't quite match up with how certain identities are typically portrayed, even when they're portrayed in ways that are considered realistic, respectful, or empowering.
Shoutout to all my fellow weirdos and anomalies: You don't have to be iconic to be proud of who you are!! At the end of the day, we're all weird little monsters with our own unique sets of traits and abilities. If we all fit into a set of fancy expectations, the world would be a lot less colorful. The right people will love you for who you genuinely are, if you let them. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤
Please feel free to use any of these anywhere you'd like, as long as you leave my watermark intact.

Team Fortress 2 Has a Bigot Problem
For those who aren't aware: the phenomenal, industry-changing shooter Team Fortress 2 is still alive and well as a free-to-play game. Unfortunately, the community in Quick Play matchmaking can be horrendously toxic. This is, in large part, a side effect of the game being free and wholly unmoderated. Valve both does not moderate the game in any meaningful way and refuses to implement even basic automated moderation on Steam profiles. Emboldened by this, bigots get weird with it in their newfound confidence they can rock an antisemetic username, transphobic profile picture, and straight up chant slurs in text chat with impunity. To (slightly) counter this, I have started a trans-haven Team Fortress 2 server. It's based out of Chicago, so all my Midwest queers will have decent connection and the coastal elite gays will be fine.
This whole venture was inspired by the YouTuber Uncle Dane, who through a little passion and disposable income created a network of high-quality servers. Shoutout to Dane for creating a corner of TF2 that doesn't let hatred slide. The gameplay ethos might be a bit sweaty for my casual tastes, but I respect the hell out of the moderation and commitment. Queertopia is in no way officially associated with Uncletopia, but the name is fitting, I argue. An oasis of queer love and fun in a desert of 13 year olds spouting right-wing conspiracy theories they half-remember their father ranting about. If you're ever in the community browser in TF2 and want to give the server a bookmark, the IP is 91.242.214.78:19001 The end-goal for this server is to build a community strong enough to necessitate more servers in more locations. I've spent the last few months fostering a Discord community of LGBTQ+ TF2 players and if there's one thing I can be sure of: it's that the TF2 community is full of queers. Hopefully Queertopia can become a fun hangout spot where people can play, have fun, and rest easy knowing if someone tries to spout grim statistics or debate womanhood, they won't last long enough to hear the drum roll of the vote-kick being called.

The Best News of Last Week - November 7, 2022
🏳️‍🌈 - Meet the best-looking couple in the world
1. Miss Puerto Rico and Miss Argentina reveal they secretly got married
Tumblr media
Beauty pageant queens Miss Puerto Rico and Miss Argentina secretly tied the knot on Friday after revealing they had been in a relationship.
In a joint Instagram post, newlyweds Fabiola Valentín, from Puerto Rico, and Mariana Varela, from Argentina, said: “After deciding to keep our relationship private, we opened the doors to them on a special day 28/10/22.”
Would this be the best-looking couple in the world? 😂
2. Book banning attempt defeated after community stands up for LGBTQ people
Tumblr media
After a heated public debate, the Greenville County Council in South Carolina voted to keep LGBTQ books accessible to children at the public library.
A resolution from city Councilor Joe Dill — who recently lost the Republican primary and will not be maintaining his seat — proposed requiring the 12-location library system in the area to remove books “promoting sexuality” from all children’s sections.
They refused to allow “Aristotle and Dante Discover The Secrets of The Universe” by Benjamin Alier Sáenz on the shelf due to “unnatural sexual behavior” when it has one gay kiss but Twilight has an entire human vampire hybrid. Glad the fight was finally won.
3. Man released from California prison after 38 years following DNA test
Tumblr media
Maurice Hastings cleared of murder charge after testing of long-held evidence points to another person.
4. The shrinking ozone hole shows that the world can actually solve an environmental crisis
Tumblr media
The ozone is on the path to recovery, if not fully restored. New data released on October 26 by NASA indicates that the annual ozone hole over the Antarctic reached an average area of 8.9 million square miles over the past year. That’s slightly smaller than last year, and continues a trend toward overall shrinking over the past several years.
“Over time, steady progress is being made, and the hole is getting smaller,” Paul Newman, chief scientist for earth sciences at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, said in a statement. “The elimination of ozone-depleting substances through the Montreal Protocol is shrinking the hole.”
5. Children refill a stranger’s empty Halloween candy bowl
Tumblr media
6. Icelandair Announces Carbon-Free Flights by 2030
Tumblr media
The airline will operate only emissions-free aircraft for its domestic routes. Some of these flights could start as early as 2026.
They will use only electric or hydrogen-powered planes. This decision puts Icelandair at the forefront of sustainable aviation, considering that other airlines are only aiming to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
7. Blindness Awareness Month: Don’t just be aware, be a friend
October was blindness awareness month, a month devoted to educate others about the realities of living without sight and to advocate for those who are blind or have low vision.
Because of this I wanted to give a shoutout to Be My Eye app. Be My Eyes connects people needing sighted support with volunteers and companies through live video around the world.
Tumblr media
That’s it for this week. If you liked this post you can support this newsletter with a small kofi donation:

Have a great week ahead :)

gonna share some positivity :)
i think my favourite experience ever as a nonbinary person was when i told my dad, and he was just like "That makes sense". he's almost 50 and had never been in contact with lgbtq+ before as far as i knew. but, when i told him, he validated me by sharing every story he had related to lgbtq+, people he's known or experiences he's had. he assured me it wouldn't change anything. i was so so scared, but he was so relaxed. we just sat in the car talking about it. he asked me about my name, my pronouns, if there was anything that needed to be changed. and the thing that sticks with me most is that he told me that he will defend me against anyone, even our family, if they "didn't agree" with my gender.
i don't think he fully understands, because gender is very complicated & personal and he's not too in-touch with lgbtq+, which is fair with his age lmao, but he's trying and i love him. he told me about how his boss is nonbinary, and even though he slips up on pronouns, he tries his best. he makes me feel so real and valid. i feel so affirmed. i don't have to pretend to be his daughter anymore, i'm his child :')
shoutout to accepting parents! and if your parents don't accept you, i am your parent now <3 this community loves you and you are so valid
Thats so sweet! I love hearing parental positivity, thank for sharing it!

Hey,
Just wanted to say I absolutely love your work ❤️
I was wondering if you had any key tips for writing short posts without them sounding too dry. I am hoping in the near future to start posting one shots and just don't want them to flop.
Thank you so much and keep up the amazing work you do!
Heyyy there @clarkiewrites !! Thanks for the ask and your kind words 💕 I’m touched and eternally grateful for the amount of people that I have reached in this community! Every single one of you keeps me going 🥰🫶🏻
Interact & tag 7 people if you have any tips for writing or just blog etiquette in general ✨🤍
As for key tips for your writing:
Writing consistently helps blossom your unique style and grow your ability and skill (I try and write a little every day—even if it’s only a couple of sentences).
Remember why your writing and posting. For me, I’m writing to contribute, add, and expand to the safe space for all lgbtq fans but mainly geared to female preferring. I want to provide more content for as many female characters that I can, because they are underrated and deserve it.
Remind yourself that your success isn’t built on the amount of likes, followers, comments, tags, etc. you get. Your “success” is you being present and giving to the community. Your “success” is sharing your passion, kindness, and love to the community.
Interact with your community. As a writer, I actively try and read other blogs and interact with other bloggers as well. I actively try and reply to my tags and asks, because I care and that will grow you.
Last but not least; be open to critic and opinions of other users. We get nowhere without learning from ourselves and from others. Let others help shape you into a better you.
A few shoutouts who I’d love for them to continue this and I’d love to see what they would say(of course I’d love to hear from all of you):
@orchidsshine @v3nusxsky @athenodora-sulpicia-writer @grumblebee-93 @slutformisswena @shyladyfan @ladyzmilf002 @a-queen-and-her-throne @what-a-violet-world @weemssapphic

An Author's Rambling
I'm not really sure how to do this social media'ing thing. I don't use this site, or really have any desire to do so, so I feel like some hack making self-advertisements with the help of guides and AI and stuff, just throwing them into the wind where they'll be seen by no-one, because I don't have a follower base that would reblog them. It might seem self-defeatist to not want to really do the social media thing, but I'm asocial, a hermit, content to not interact with other humans for the most part, plenty neurodivergent. I guess this ramble is also me technically coming out in public pretty widely. Yeah, like Reggie, the narrator/main protag in my webnovel series, I'm an aro-ace with neurodivergencies up the wazoo, disabled in a few ways.
What am I hoping to accomplish? Just to get "An Age of Mysterious Memories" out there to people that need it, that need to be seen, to feel represented. But, like I said, posting here feels like throwing fliers into the wind, hoping that they'll land somewhere that someone picks it up and goes, "Huh, neat, maybe I'll check that out someday when I'm bored or depressed."
I'm actually surprised that a couple of my posts have been seen by at least one person that wasn't on my follower list, which, hey, shoutout to you new fam.
This social media stuff really burns me out and detracts from my writing, but between this, and some pretty-expensive google advertising, I don't know how else to offer up my story to the world.
I don't even care about "conversions" or conversion to click ratio or whatever. I have 0 patrons on Patreon, and that's fine. I've been skating by in life on the thin ice of every new day (Thank you Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson, heh.)
I guess maybe I should ask how I should even do this. Should I get more personal? Post more ramblings, with popular tags, and just hope that those bring traffic, and then hope that that traffic sees that I have a free webnovel up?
A lot of the guides suggest quantity, and a regular posting schedule for this social media stuff that's way too hard for me to keep up without burning out, because I have chapters going up every day or every other day, basically, nonstop. In the approximately two years since i started getting serious with my webnovel series, I've averaged at least a chapter every other day. Some days I write ten to twenty chapters, maybe a few days in a row, then I don't write anything for a month or two, because titling them, posting them, advertising them, burns me out. I could keep writing, forever and ever, even if that means writing chapters I can't post yet (I have so many chapters written for the next volume in my series that it's not even funny.) Or I could write side-projects, or fanfic I guess. I took my first foray into that a while back, and I kind of want to do a reread on my fanfic and plot out a conclusion to it, instead of leaving it hanging like it is. But fanfic isn't my baby, it's not what I want to get seen.
What I want seen is AAoMM, because it's... it's the representation, it's me putting myself out there, my internals, my neurodivergencies into a narrator, my Q status in the lgbtqia, having intrusive thoughts and not acting on them, and just so much more, that I know other people identify with, and honestly need. The representation matters, and I just want to provide that, because I know people who have been, or are hurting, or struggling, or are just in a funk, or depressed, or bored, or any number of things, that share so many of the traits that Reggie carries, that I carry. Several of my readers have said that it feels like the thoughts that are expressed are them in the situations Reggie is in. I don't think I've seen another adventure novel series where we get stream-of-consciousness moment-to-moment inner narration of a neurodivergent narrator that falls into the lgbtq community.
What a niche, right? Except... it's not. We're all having our own inner adventures. We all do have a stream of consciousness, whether we acknowledge it or not, and there are *Tons* of people out there who are neurodivergent in the lgbtqia community. Hell, at this point in Earth's history, I'd be surprised if anyone has survived unscathed without any neurodivergencies, trauma, or panic. We went through a global epidemic, a pandemic. That must have been rough on you peeps out there that actually leave your homes and do stuff with other humans. My sympathy to you guys. I'm a hermit, my life got a little bit easier, because things started allowing web-based doctor's visits, and delivery of groceries, and other stuff to help with social distancing. I'm rambling, but I just want to give AAoMM to everyone who needs it.
I want to nerd out about my webnovel series with people, and answer questions ranging from silly, to heart-wrenching. Why? Because I am in a good place, I've gotten somewhere in life that I feel content, despite all my comorbid things, all the depression and trauma and anxiety and social-phobia and adhd and spectrum'ness and the struggle with identity, especially my AA agendered ace identity, that I've slid around on, and worried I'd invalidated myself over the years, and everything else I've got, gone through, carry around, or deal with. Reggie's narration is that--, that beacon of, no matter how hard things get, what slams your mind with intrusive thoughts, that there's hope, that there's warm, soft times, contented times, happy times, ecstatic times, somewhere along the tunnel that is life's journey. Also that you can slide around on the scale of your agenderness or aromanticness, or your sexuality, and that that's okay, that you still are who you feel you are, or say you are, no matter what others think, that there can be romances and fluff and all kinds of things that are exceptions to rules, whether those rules are imposed by others, or yourself.
It feels like I'd look like I was shilling or pandering though if I interjected all the tags though, for every chapter, because not every chapter does it really come up that Reggie(and most of the inner circle) is at least technically agendered, or that there are several LGB relationships for side characters, or--. Well, it is always pretty evident that Reggie's brain is neurodivergent, we hear every thought that Reggie ever thinks, including the intrusive ones, almost every thought anyway.
But I also sort of want to put AAoMM in front of non-ally neurotypicals who are ablebodied and cishet, and be like:
"God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in our shoes 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues" (Thanks Everlast, for those lyrics.)
Not in a malicious way or anything. I don't want them to suffer, I don't want anyone to suffer. Plus, I'm sure they're going through their own things, just like everyone else. I just want to try to remind people to be empathetic to each other, to think for that brief moment, before interacting with another human being, that -they are another human being-. That they deserve to be treated equally to how they're interacting with the world around them, more or less. Everyone deserves human rights, and the dignity of being acknowledged as existing with their own struggles.
I got pretty soapboxy here I guess, probably best if I shut up now and just hit post. (Could you guess that I'm an author by the verbosity of this goofy-arse post that was just supposed to be me semi-ironically whining about social media on social media?)

Jeric double date with Rachel and whatever bitch they try and set her up with real (also I’m pushing lesbian Rachel)
7. Do they want (have) kids?
Yea :)))

9. If they got engaged… who proposed?
Jack,,,,
10. How do they deal with the other’s family?
I feel like jack would kinda wanna impress Alan and Amy but overall he gets along with them and like,,, Shawn likes Eric and that’s all that rly matters
11. What is their love language?
Both prob mostly quality time but Eric also probably physical touch
12. How are their communication skills?
Average? I feel like Eric is kinda defined BY his emotional intelligence so that helps but they’ve got their issues (specifically cause of the time gap thing)
13. A little personal… but… Hot and Steamy or Soft and Tender?
Haven’t thought too much about this and if I’m being real idk if I wanna
14. How did they first meet?
K that one is just canon, shoutout to Cory for introducing them, he is a real supporter of the lgbtq+ community
15. Why do they like each other?
They both kinda bring something to each other that they themselves don’t have so they kinda balance each other out and bring out the best in each other because of that, I think that’s kinda why they like each other???? Cause of the differences and new perspectives and shit idk
17. Morning rituals?
Thinking about adult jeric, y’all they have real jobs now and Eric probably has to get up early as fuck, I doubt he’s at all functional when he first gets up, my guy is like “five more minutes” when he’s literally a senator, jack probably read some article once about the healthiest morning routine and has tried to abide by that ever since
18. Evening rituals?
Mfs watch tv and films till one of them falls asleep and I really believe that
19. How are they at parties or gatherings?
Jacks mostly cool and normal, Eric makes things fucking crazy/pos

22. Who is the photo bug?
Prob Eric but I could see it being jack
23. How well do they know each other’s favorite foods?
Pretty well probably they literally live together (side note but Eric’s either the type of mf to eat like three different type of foods with very little variety or the type of mf to have a new food he’s obsessed with every other week no I’m not elaborating)
24. What do their texts look like?
Adult jeric time :)))) jack has that stereotypical old man texting style, Eric does that weird thing my grandma does where it’s like “congrats on the show today🏄‍♀️🌈🍰”
25. Parenting style?
Dude Eric would literally be such a good dad, fun parent, Eric Matthews be my dad challenge, I think Jack might be worried about fucking up but overall I think he’s do a good job, he’d make sure that kid didn’t die
26. If they have kids, who named them? What would they name them?
I’m not entirely sure?
27. Who brings home an illegal pet?
Eric if either of them (Eric’s not rly a pet guy and jack has a hard enough time taking care of himself)
28. Who takes the longest getting ready to leave?
I’m not sure, this could go either way
29. Who said I Love You, first?
I like the idea of it being jack but it was prob Eric
30. When did they realize they loved each other?
Eric was prob during witches of pennbrooke cause,,,, I love that episode and I like the implications of it,,,, jack I legit think was probably after the end of the series but before girl meets world (I mostly like to think this cause it makes me sad 👍)

this was too long for twitter but honestly i was pleasantly surprised about the publicity for heartstopper because i expected everyone on twitter to be like "wELL if every single actor doesn't immediately come out to everyone then how do we KNOW all the queer characters are actually being played by queer actors hmMM??" bc yknow. the internet is just Like That 🙃
and heartstopper's response (bc they almost certainly anticipated this) was literally just like "we have a queer cast, trust us, and not a single person in the cast owes you any more information than that. not to MENTION we go above and beyond to show you that this tv series was CREATED not only by an openly queer author who was given FULL control to write the entire screen adaptation of their own graphic novels, but also by a openly queer director who specifically made sure to hire as many queer workers as possible for every. other. department of the show. because yes, it's super important that queer actors play queer characters; but it's even MORE important that the representation extends FAR beyond the people you see on screen."
bc THAT IS HOW YOU HAVE GOOD REPRESENTATION. NOT forcing all of your actors to spend every single interview fielding questions about their own personal gender & sexual identities. good representation is making sure that―unlike the majority of films and tv shows, sadly―if you look beyond the main cast, the roles of director/producer/writer/photographer/makeup artist/crew member/etc are ACTUALLY fulfilled by a diverse group of talented people. true representation doesn't stop at the actors, or the portrayal of characters. it goes all the way up the ladder to everyone making the movie/tv show/etc happen in the first place. change can't happen long-term unless "older," well-established people in the industry (like euros lyn) use their position to create opportunities for fresh, new, young, diverse talent.
tldr heartstopper is a brilliant example of how to properly create a series both by and for the lgbtq+ community, and i was SO relieved to see all the publicity revolve around the story and the actors and the importance of representation WITHOUT requiring anybody who wasn't already out to clarify anything about themselves.

My #1 post of 2022
ok slight tour spoiler ahead but: during one segment he asked us to pick a noise and an influencer. someone said ‘boink’ and he was like ‘somehow that still sounds sexual’ and then we got to influencer and he was like ‘oh my god did someone say PHIL??’ so the sentence ended up being something about a secret society called the boink run by phil lester
and THEN he fucking says (something like) ‘joke’s on you, me and phil have been in boink together from the START!!!’ and. dan. my dude. YOU were the one who said boink sounded sexual do you not realize what that Sounds Like 💀

‘There’s something I’ve never told anyone. Do you promise not to laugh, and not to tell no one? It’s my name… it’s not really Ace. My real name’s Dorothy.’ ~ Dragonfire 🐉🔥 Well look who it is… it’s Dorothy Gale… MCSHANE?! 🤣 I’ve been toying with the idea of colliding two of my favourite characters from two VERY different worlds together, with my Dorothy Gale dress and the Ace jacket. And I’m so happy with the result! Plus both of them have connections to the LGBTQ+ community - Judy Garland and Dorothy Gale being icons for the community (think Friends of Dorothy!) and Ace? Well, there’s definitely some bisexual undertones in her stories. Plus, there’s now Friends of Ace! @friendsoface is a wonderful community and safe space for LGBTQ+ Whovians and allies and they helped me to discover and be proud of my own bisexuality. Shoutout to @aaroonio for founding the group! 🥰🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (Swipe through to see some fun shots!, including with the Progress Pride flag and my @dragraceukbbc S2 cracking fan!) And in the words of @elliediamondofficial : ‘Stick to the Yellow Brick Road, and get to Oz in the end.’ 💎🌈 #cosplay #wizardofoz #costume #dorothy #dorothygale #crossover #pride #pridemonth #friends #judygarland #ace #doctorwho #whovian #bisexual #gay #lgbtq #flag #fan https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce_ORpZoKYU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
