Mike!!

imagine you had a friend who constantly made jokes at the expense of something you loved. they're never funny, but they seem to expect you to laugh even though the punchline is just, "this thing you love sucks ass". it's not even really a joke, there's nothing funny about it, you can tell that they genuinely actually believe it. but they insist it's just a joke!

#actual advice: switch to self-aggrandizing humor #have the biggest ego in the world even if it's fake #does wonders

Making motivational "it's never too late to transition" posts is really undercut if the age you're highlighting is still young. Claiming that your transition was late and it worked out great for you actually makes older people more afraid to transition if you're saying that shit in your 20s. How do you think a trans person in their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s feels when you're 23 and calling yourself a late transitioner?

off topic to the absolutely amazing and brilliant new game changer ep, but i just have to say how much i loved hearing jiavani and demi be referred to as she/him and he/they, respectively, so naturally by sam and the cast. i don't think we'll see mainstream media refer to, let alone cast, genderqueer and gnc people with such normalacy.

we have the privilege of looking at the black parade in hindsight which is why we can confidently say it's a game changing album but i can imagine in 2006 it felt like waking up one day to this going bonkers on limewire

Help Nader, I am out of a lot of work due to two injuries & intense PT and I wish I could help more but I also beg you guys to help him supplement even the little bit I was able to give.
