the thing about all this "tma vs tme" "trans infighting" discourse is that its all pretty easily solved by caring about and listening to transfems instead of viewing us as rapists waiting to happen. Like thats really 99% of what is being asked of TMEs on this site. Thats all it takes but you cant even manage. instead you cry crocodile tears over being treated like an "oppressor"

Sometimes i do come across TME trans folks who genuinely seem to think they don't view transfems as rapists waiting to happen, but they are. You can see their guards go up the minute they realize theres a transfem present. And like, if you were truly able go get over your preconceived notions you wouldnt do that.

"But its work to get over my preconceived notions!!!" yes it is. but its necessary work. Idk what to tell you! I dont get to ignore unlearning racism just because its hard, and you dont get to ignore unlearning transmisogyny!!! Oh no you have to put in effort to be a good person!!! Get. over. it.

in case folk outside the UK aren't abreast of our news, the British press just hounded a black academic to death

It literally does not matter how many hours I work this week, I'm going to be behind on bills because the only jobs I can do don't pay and make my condition rapidly worsen until I physically can't even get up, much less work, at all

listen I'm ambulatory again today but I am shaking and having a hard time standing up, I need help

Hey, if you've read any of my work and thought about giving money to me, I'd really really appreciate if you helped my friend out. They have to make $600 in (now) about a day. Please fucking help them.

I just lost my job

not to drive the implicit point home too hard but I also can't think of literally any other instances where it's been good or helpful to say "[class of people] are all universally bad and stupid because of their small brains and crazy hormones". so idk why we think saying it about teenagers is the one exception to the rule. even if you're tacking on a "so this is why we have to be nice to them. because they can't help having small dumb brains." who does this rhetoric help?

Maybe one day we can stop moralizing the concept of privilege & everyone will get normaler about being told they have relative privilege over other people. Like literally everyone everywhere in some way. It's fine. Being aware of it can't hurt you

There's such an endless chorus of outraged "but what if I'm poor? What if I'm autistic" and it's like. Ok. You're not getting this at all let's just start over

It's like. you don't get your own childhood. not "didn't get the childhood you wanted," it's "didn't get a childhood that was yours." and you're supposed to be normal about it. and people tell you Oh you didn't miss much it was bad and awful for xyz reasons you really don't Actually want to be raised as a girl. well, what if I was a girl anyway and everyone acted like I wasn't. called me a name that wasn't mine. told me I was a person I wasn't until I believed it and clung to that fake person until I saw it was cutting into my hands. it wasn't mine. that child wasn't me; wasn't allowed to be me; wasn't even allowed to know there was a me. what if, on a very real level, my childhood was not mine? what if I wanted a childhood where I was actually seen, even if it hurts? and I'm supposed to be normal about it

It's how so many people from the USA and Europe, don't even realize that they share the Internet space with Global Southerners and that a post circulating on the net might be based on a very real lived experience of these people; they are so used to not hearing from us, to ignoring us, that when they do in fact hear us speak they react with shock that someone can even hold a political stance that might not be as popular in the circles they move in. Your politics of always supporting indie authors of your country by buying their books will not really have as many takers from the rest of the world, I am sorry to say. You will also sometimes see us taking pot shots at these authors for complaining about people pirating books, and whining about how people could have just gone to libraries instead or could have taken a $1 Amazon subscription. Like I am sorry impcore baby you don't get to say that, when your countries have maintained such disproportionately strong currencies by shitting on the rest of the world. Your one william dollar costs quite a lot of money for the rest of us and neither do we get to maintain such public infrastructures so seamlessly like your country does by redirecting a portion from the imperialist spoils.

call me crazy but I think it'd be easier if surgeons learned how to operate on fat bodies instead of expecting every single fat person to lose weight before getting surgery

Because of his illness, Qais has struggled to eat or drink for more than a week, and his weight has dropped to only 7 kilograms. He urgently needs medication and treatment, but I cannot afford the cost while time keeps running out.

Unfortunately, I am still using torn pieces of old cloth instead of medical bandages because I do not have enough money to buy proper supplies, and my baby Qais’s wound keeps reopening and bleeding. Please, I beg you, donate now and help me save him.

Please, please help this family out. Please donate anything you can !! sharing is also appreciated but donations are so needed
