My name's Grave

A quick intro...

for a group claiming to want bodily autonomy for all, why are you against his choice of tattoo?

OHHHH YOU'RE TRANSANDROPHOBIC GOT IT

"oooo he's so misguided, ooo he doesn't understand his own feelings, ooooo he's confused"

actually fully fuck off if you try and exclude people from the intersex community because of

A) lesser known/lesser recognised intersex variations (PMOS, mullerian duct anomalies, etc)

(also i don't hear people talking about this ANYWHERE so)

. . .

IT IS NOT JUST BAD PERIODS

it is bloating so severe it feels like my organs are pulling on eachother

it's periods so painful i can't stand up straight, i pass out, and i feel so nauseous that i might as well be in my deathbed

it's ovulation pain so severe i've been to the ER multiple times because of it

it's the slow but sure WORSENING of these symptoms as it progresses

it is LIKENED. TO. CANCER.

it's pain so serious that OTC pain meds don't help .. and the ones that do are so strong that i can't function and deal with intense side effects

it's chronic constipation that becomes so normal you forget what it's like

it's numbness and pain not just around your pelvis but it travels through your body

it's such severe pain during/after sex that i can't stand afterwards and there's maybe 2 good days a month where it STILL HURTS just slightly less

it's doctors constantly gaslighting you saying hormonal treatments are the only fix, that getting diagnosed is pointless, that your pain isn't real, spreading literal misinformation

it's that 1/10 people with uteruses have it.... but it's ACTUALLY 1/6 people with uteruses according to specialists

it's that it's yet another underfunded and misunderstood condition that gets pushed under the rug by professionals

it's the slow creeping fear that nothing you love will feel good again out of fear of a flare

it's infertility.

it's cancelling plans.

a lot of what you see as normal is privileged if you are non disabled or less severely disabled

i cannot physically keep my flat clean without help. tasks take days at a time and i can't even do my rubbish or recycle. i also can't often walk my bins to the kerb.

i cannot do my hobbies often. i can't draw, paint or play music most of the time despite them being my hobbies. so people will say they aren't hobbies because i can only do them maybe once a month

i cannot go to protests. yes i'm being serious. i'm punk but i can't make it to protests or pretty much any public eveny

i can't make phone calls or even pick up of the phone 90% of the time. i miss important things and i can't control it

i am SICK my heart breaks every time i remember Killua exists as a character

related to him so hard (abuse and all) and i havent found a single character like him that i relate to in that way (Kurapika comes close tbh but... my god)

i get told i can't say i'm bloated because i'm skinnier

i have endometriosis and i dress strategically around my bloating to avoid discomfort

bloating is not a bad thing

anyone can be bloated

i hate people calling it "endo belly" because i want to be able to call it what it is. i personally find it disgusting that we're steering people away from using the proper language because we shame anyone who has chronic bloating issues like myself

a random load of seal belly slaps?

... big loud fart

muttering incoherently as usual

uh

every person i have ever encountered in the wild has been horrified by the thought of endos trying to be a thing

they just don't go round saying it cus it's not a tumblr blog where they post their vents and negative thoughts or viewpoints all the time
