    Why wasn’t The Sound as big as Joy Division? So fucking good. Acquaint oneself.

  • Be Trans, Do Crime

    i want to say to all my eggy or trans curious friends: take the fucking estradiol. get the T cream. try it and see if you feel better, if the dysphoria you weren’t sure you had dissipates. at least then you’ll know. they warn you, “permanent changes to your body!!!!” but it’s slow, if you want it to be.

    for instance, my body had a lot of shape change in the first 6 months, fat migrated from my hips to my belly. i’ll be a year in april, and i’ve just started getting a beard on my cheeks and chin. my muscles started changing a month or two ago. and that’s at 100mg/wk.

    but the mental changes happened much faster. once my system was testosterone dominant, i felt more mentally healthy than i’ve ever been in my life. my body feels better. i feel *correct* I don’t know if that’s universal, it’s just my experience. i think people get scared off trying it.

    like, “changes are permanent!!!” fuck man, so are most changes in life. i didn’t choose being fat or sick, and those were things that left me with permanent bodily changes. it’s not something to be scared of, just aware. and you can stop whenever. no shame in it.

    you don’t have to be anything but not your birth assigned gender to want to try hormones. i am genderfluid but lean masc, but i still present pretty femme. you do not have to become a Man or Woman if you don’t want to, though you can if you do! that’s freedom, baby!

    if you feel the queer or trans community doesn’t accept you, you are not in the right piece of the community. there is no one community. you will find your people. it might take time. i’m kind of a queer cryptid and it’s taken me a while! it’s fine. you won’t be alone.

    you won’t be alone.

  • Pink Pony Club

    does pink pony club make anyone else tear up? there’s something about doing what you want while your loved ones are disappointed in you, “god, what have you done!” gets me every time. just like me to cry at a party anthem about stripping.

    reposted from my bluesky account, @zoem.me

    transhumanism, transgenderism and bodily autonomy are rebellion. you can, and must, own yourself.

    the ability to decide what we do with our bodies, from who we have sex (or don’t) with to tattoos and piercings and impants, to procreation or not, is our right. if there is a god given right, that is it. to decide what we do with our SELVES. body modification is rebellion. ABORTION is rebellion

    one more time, when we defend trans rights, gay rights, abortion rights – we defend ALL OF OUR BODIES from control. no one is exempt from the consequences of our existence being litigated. we have to support each other. we are in the same fucking boat even if you don’t feel the waves yet.

    this is why we PROTECT TRANS AND QUEER KIDS from their existence being litigated and politicized this is why we support SEX EDUCATION, and want it to be diverse and INCLUSIVE this is why we push back on EVERY restriction on ABORTION not declared by the person’s doctor and there’s so much more.

    but this is the hill i will, and might, literally die on. if i’m gonna die of mental illness because i can’t get T, i promise to go to a hill to do it. this is a core value. this is where humanism starts. creating an accessible, fair world starts with recognizing us as self-possessed human beings.

    it beings here.
