I try to be a safe person to as many people as possible, especially if they are a part of a marginalised group, so if I do something wrong in that regard please, feel free to tell me!
What you should look out for on this blog:
Pride, both inregards to trans feminine people like myself and other queer and or intersex people.
Sharing of interesting, strong or beautiful thoughts and opinions of other marginalised people, including people of colour.
Some nsfw or kink related art or posts- this account is primarily for me being myself and that includes kink!
What you don't have to worry about:
Exclusionist statements or language
Endorsement of harassment
Ableist language against people with mental disorders (no shallow use of narcissist, psychopath, etc)
As few uses of terms like stupid or dumb or other similar ableist words in general

I saw a comment on your blog that says 'the way you eat does not cause diabetes'...are you able to expand on that or provide a source I could read? I've been told by doctors that my pre-diabetes was due to weight gain because I get more hungry on my anti psychotics and I'd like to fact check what they've told me! Thank you so much!
There are a lot more factors at play in diabetes — more complicated than “I had a cupcake at lunch.”
Pre-diabetes was rejected as a diagnosis by the World Health Organization (although it is used by the US and UK) - the correct term for the condition is impaired glucose tolerance. Approximately 2% of people with "pre-diabetes" go on to develop diabetes per year. You heard that right - TWO PERCENT. Most diabetics actually skip the pre-diabetic phase.
There are currently no treatments for pre-diabetes besides intentional weight loss. (Hmm, that's convenient, right?) There has yet to be evidence that losing weight prevents progression from pre-diabetes to T2DM beyond a year. Interestingly, drug companies are trying to persuade the medical world to start treating patients earlier and earlier. They are using the term “pre-diabetes” to sell their drugs (including Wegovy, a weight-loss drug). Surgeons are using it to sell weight loss surgery. Everyone’s a winner, right? Not patients. Especially fat patients.
Check out these articles:
Prediabetes: The epidemic that never was, and shouldn’t be
The war on ‘prediabetes' could be a boon for pharma—but is it good medicine?
Also - I love what Dr. Asher Larmie @fatdoctorUK has to say about T2DM and insulin resistance, so here's one of their threads I pulled from Twitter:
1️⃣ You can't prevent insulin resistance. It's coded in your DNA. It may be impacted by your environment. Studies have shown it has nothing to do with your BMI.
2️⃣ The term "pre-diabetes" is a PR stunt. The correct term is impaired glucose tolerance (or impaired fasting glucose) which is sometimes referred to as intermittent hyperglycemia. It does not predict T2DM. It is best ignored and tested for every 3-5yrs.
3️⃣ there is no evidence that losing weight prevents diabetes. That's because you can't reverse insulin resistance. You can possibly postpone it by 2yrs? Furthermore there is evidence that those who are fat at the time of diagnosis fair much better than those who are thin.
4️⃣ Weight loss does not reverse diabetes in the VAST majority of people. Those that do reverse it are usually thinner with recent onset T2DM and a low A1c. Only a tiny minority can sustain that over 2yrs. Weight loss does not improve A1c levels beyond 2 yrs either.
5️⃣ Weight loss in T2DM does not improve macrovascular or microvascular health outcomes beyond 2 years. In fact, weight loss in diabetics is associated with increased mortality and morbidity (although it is not clear why). Weight cycling is known to impacts A1c levels.
6️⃣ Weight GAIN does NOT increase the risk of cardiovascular OR all causes mortality in diabetics. In fact, one might even go so far as to say that it's better to be fat and diabetic than to be thin and diabetic.
Dr. Larmie cites 18 peer reviewed journal articles (most from the last decade) that are included in their webinar on the subject, linked below.

for me it's harder to do that when characters hate eachother ngl
Yes please hate eachother more it makes me feel alive
Sorry to derail yes, forced romanticisation is icky especially when it comes from a place of making something "better", as if a relationship not being romantic is somehow a bad thing.
Tbh all types of love should be treated equally, and all dynamics two characters have with eachother should originate from the same point: the characters. Just like how a romantic dynamic doesn't have a free pass on making someone ooc just because it's romantic so should platonic or familial dynamics too grow from a solid understanding of the characters involved.
right wing handwringing over birth rates has always unsubtly been a combination of wanting more white babies/wanting control over women, so it's bothersome that the popular response to that is just pointing out the cost of living. "we Would be having more kids if you guys made some positive changes to society" and such. pronatalist sentiment is becoming so much more explicit that I don't think many self-styled progressives are ready to reconcile with the fact that many women simply do not want to have children. we already see how women are demonized for refusing to undertake the thankless burdens of their mother and grandmother's generations lol, I can't imagine how full abdication from child rearing will come across to some people.
I can't even see "we Would be having kids" as a strategic approach to get conservatives to consider advocating for a higher quality of life considering that they truly could not care less if you, specifically, are poor. it's true that more couples would have kids if it was cheaper, but that will not be enough for these types until women's subservience is codified. even now, they consider the lack of child rearing in today's insane society to be a matter of selfishness. they view themselves as completely different animals than you. they have and will continue to advocate for more advantages for people of their specific backgrounds and income brackets to reinforce this lol.
I think this rhetoric also ignores that the right wing want the inverse for Black and brown people - this logic of “raise living standards and we’ll have more kids” is a white perspective that ignores white supremacist medical violence, forced abortions, forced sterilisation, mass deportations, mass incarceration, police murder, imperial aggression, and forced removal of children from families as institutional programs of population control (Canadian residential schools, for example, were built for this exact purpose).
Increasing white birth rates is only one half of the equation for the right wing, and this raising-living-standards rhetoric fails to address this completely. Even in the outlandish scenario where the right wing accepts this logic and institutes robust welfare programs, do people think the state will offer these things to black, brown, and indigenous people? In any scenario where this happens it would just be Aryan UBI

Job satisfaction at all time high for "slime girls who work full time as incredibly skintight sentient body suit for girls" what the industry can learn from this record breaking trend.
so, i have a slight conundrum in writing a Black oc of mine, and would like your thoughts on this
to keep it brief, i realised a while ago that the oc in question would likely casually say the n-word. however, i am very white, so i'm doubtful if it'd be okay for me to write that.
I want to clarify here- and you are not the first to ask this- that the issue lies in the confident presence of the belief that this character would say the n word. Because... Why? Reflect upon why that is. Why do you (general), as a white person, believe that this character that you came up with would do that? What are the standards that this character supposedly meets that say "ah yes, he would say the n word"?
Because I won't lie, there absolutely are Black characters that I believe would do that. But is your belief coming from experience or is it coming from bias? And even if he would say it casually, do you recognize what "casual" actually is? Because what you think might be casual might very well become fighting words!
I just think if you have not shown a confident grasp on how Black people interact with each other on a very comfortable level to begin with in your works or life, the use of that word should be thee last priority.
