Catnip but for Martians

i hate that when you try and look up shit for writing purposes it starts linking suicide hotlines and addiction advice articles like bro i just wanna know the information im not killing myself i promise. now tell me what i wanna know

furious that i've never heard of this as an intersex transmasc so i looked it up to learn more and. well if anyone's curious: "Testosterone is a Schedule III controlled substance based on concerns about its performance-enhancing use in sports. By the virtue of this classification, prescription and dispensation of testosterone are trackable through state prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMPs). The number of PDMPs has rapidly expanded over the last 20 years in response to the overdose crisis; these databases now exist in every US state and territory. Individual state PDMP policies expand access to controlled substance prescription data for local and state law enforcement, often without basic warrant or other safeguards to prevent unfettered surveillance. In 9 states, PDMPs also track International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision codes, potentially allowing law enforcement to discern the diagnoses for which testosterone was prescribed."

in conversation about white people who go to Japan and expect their knowledge of anime to culturally carry them, I was once posed with “it’s like if there was a Japanese guy who was obsessed with spongebob and came over here and thought he could get by just communicating in spongebob quotes.” This is a false equivalence because if such a man existed we would crown him king. We’d love him. Americans would fucking love that. sometimes I get sad that this isn’t a real guy I can invite to a party.

Ok the last one got me laughing actually

hate when people think the only archetype possible for a male sidekick to a female protagonist is a soft boi and/or himbo. like the implication there is that the only reason a man would ever defer to a woman’s authority is if he was a bumbling idiot. love male supporting characters who are smart and strong and confident and can step up when necessary but still kind and humble enough to let someone else take the lead most of the time

i feel like those posts thatre like “REAL gay people don’t talk about yaoi discourse they go to gay clubs and do ket” are crazy like i understand they’re critiquing a hyper specific genre of online queer but babe they can do both… i know people who are ravers and are always on shrooms and read mcr rpf like i feel like we draw a big line between the online queer community and the in person one but that girls at gay bars have tumblr accounts it’s really not that seperate

Can I be honest with yall I don't want to hear SHIT against cishets at pride this year

"But it's not FOR them!!!" The biggest military power in the world belongs to a christofascist nation overseen by a felon found guilty of 34 federal crimes and has greenlit a gestapo with more direct funding than the entire military of Canada for the purpose of ethnic cleansing. Let Hetero Jessica throw some biodegradable glitter at a municipal parade

At this point if anyone is trying to exclude anyone benignly pro-queer from a pro-queer space I'm just going to assume you're a fed or something idk like something something destabilize the movement from within or whatever

i can't cope

I need to stop replying to “how do you make friends in your 30s?” threads because all my answers boil down to “you have to want to know people instead of have friends” and I don’t think people wanna hear that

It’s like. People can tell if you don’t really like or connect with them. If you aren’t truly enamored with someone you will have a hard time coming up with activities to do together to deepen the friendship. Because you don’t really like that person that much.

Thank you so much to everyone who's sent in their amazing art! Hopefully I'll have time to go through and reblog the rest of the submissions later today :D (Keep 'em coming, though! I plan to reblog/answer every single response to this post until pride month ends!)
