mercurial musings

Posting faggot and queer like 2am gunshots to keep property values on my blog low and scare away assimilationist LGBTs who want to replace my empty lot full of native wildflowers with a 5-over-1 because they're too traumatized by their upbringing to accept the reality of our diverse marginalized community

fwiw I've had to work with the NLRB (national labor relations board) and EEOC (equal employment opportunity commission) before in a similar situation (a few years back I was fired from a job in retaliation for striking), and i was able to work with a lawyer employed by the city who handled my case at no cost to me and eventually got me backpay. i wonder if similar resources might be available here... solidarity 🌹

I don't think u understand how much I need this

*through gritted teeth* you are not a child taking a test with the purpose of getting the highest score, you are an adult trying new things and finding ways to enjoy your life, make mistakes, be a beginner, be mediocre, be where you need to be, be unlikeable, just. be.

this what cis people sound like when i talk about being turned down for jobs for being trans “but they cant do that!” 

[id: tweet from @pettyfilou “mysterious enema” dec 1, 2018 “do u ever think abt what queerness would look like if a whole generation of us weren’t wiped out? do u ever think abt the families that could exist right now? the stories that are gone? followup tweet, same person: “i wish the queer experience wasn’t fraught with danger and sadness and just overwhelming fear. i wish i had billions of elders who were still alive today to tell me what i silly kid i am and that i have my whole life ahead of me. i wish i didn’t miss ppl i never got to meet”]

I just want…..someone to be so utterly enamored by me in every way?? but I don’t want to be romanticized. I want to be fully understood on every level. to be seen as fundamentally whole. I want security and respect and I want the freedom to still be me. I don’t want sacrifice tbh….I think it’s overrated… I just want to coexist. not two halves that complete each other but two wholes that compliment one another….and I don’t think that is asking for too much

one of my favorite tropes is when a character is talking in the foreground and something happens in the background that directly contradicts what they’re saying

This will never get old.
