s. wants a hug

academic writing these days is always like “be/longing” “re-membering” “(under)standing”

STEM academic writing is like "we present the results of the ACRONYM project (A ContRived mnemOnic is NecessarY Material)"

If you see the quote "I refuse to share my body with a man who wouldn't defend it politically" or any variation of it floating around the internet — it was Kat Blaque who originally said it and she would really appreciate it if people gave her proper credit for it but it's gone viral on a lot of different platforms and most of the people sharing it don't know it's from her or choose not to credit her on purpose.

Watching a Kat Blaque video and she said "when you are a trans person, nobody wants to trust that you know whats going on". People would prefer to believe your self identity convictions are a greater delusion than the binary they base their reality upon. That you too, are just a child pretending to escape reality as a puppy dog. When trans people, in reality, not only have to live every minute, every second, every hour, every year as said identity, they spend the entire time having to defend it gruelingly. To live queerly and as oneself is to walk away from death while behemoth social structures are trying to drag you towards it.

we’re so lucky that gilgamesh survived and is a banger. can you imagine if we found the oldest written human story ever recorded and it sucked balls.

you actually do need to center all trans voices in feminism, and that includes trans men. if you cannot wrap your head around the fact that trans men belong in feminist movements - without erasing their identity as men - you are part of the problem and you are not an ally to trans people.
