let this radicalize you rather than lead you to despair

god whispered to me in the depths of my despair and she told me that i am loved. she kissed my temple and gestured to the rainbow in the sky. “you, my love, are my forever promise.”

ms. jenny calendar in her very first episode: calls giles old on three separate occasions, complains about white men gatekeeping knowledge, shows up late and hungover to her own class, calls herself a technopagan, exorcises a demon from the internet and shocks giles by implying she has a nipple piercing which she lost in his library. jenny calendar nobody will ever do it like you.

ever since i was a little girl i knew i wanted to put no effort into my appearance

actually im not done buffy is transgender for real. she's a girl, but she's something else too that the other girls at school aren't, and she knows that that identity automatically makes her an outsider from all the other girls at school. she likes who she is, but sometimes watching Cordelia, she can't help but long for the ease of being "normal". her friends love and support her, but they aren't like her, and she knows that means there are some parts of her life that they'll just never understand. she wants to be homecoming queen so badly, if only to prove to herself that she can be this other thing and also a regular high school girl at the same time. how she tries to hide her identity from her mother for as long as she can. how when she finally tells joyce, they get in a huge argument because joyce is so afraid of what this means for buffy's safety that she tries to stop her from being herself. the fact that buffy, arguing with her mother about her own identity, says "You think I chose to be like this? Do you have any idea how lonely it is? How dangerous?" The fact that a stranger tells her "But you're just a girl." and she says "That's what I keep saying."

*packing my suitcase for a 3 day trip* hm, but what if I need my terracotta warriors..

all the rights that come with marriage you should be able to have without marriage btw. you should be able to designate a person who can visit you in the hospital regardless of your relationship to that person.

to be honest im really sick of the fact that fat people are supposed to suck it up when other peoples worst fear is looking like them
