good boy but in the way you praise a hunting dog after you have it gore something

i talk about transitioning and all anyone ever says is "I hope you don't regret it" what if instead we said I hope you love it. I hope it's everything you ever wanted. I hope you live the rest of your life in utter bliss. etc etc.

I hope you transition and I hope it's the best thing you ever did and I hope you never look back and I hope you finally feel comfortable in your own skin

How do I explain Plato's allegory of the cave to my cat?

gato’s allegory of the fishtank

WRONG FUCKING IMAGE

it's not toxic positivity to say "humankind has the capacity to do good when you least expect it" it's not naive to say "make room for joy or else it will fucking body you when it comes" and it's not stupid to say "I believe we will win." are you going to lay in a ditch for the rest of your life, darling?

as you may have suspected, I've gotten on T since making this post

the female half of my soul is always fag hagging for my male half that's why i am such a balanced individual

OP, how beefy are your neck muscles to hold up that giant fucking brain of yours? this is AMAZING.

A better world is possible, just btw, in case you were wondering. It's not guaranteed, but it sure as hell is possible.

Oh, also: It's worth fighting for

It may, in fact, be the only thing worth fighting for.

I think if I could be the kind stranger in someone’s memory, that’d be enough.

The morning my mom died, we left the hospital and didn't know what else to do but go get breakfast at a McDonald's. We shuffled in like zombies. We were pretty shell shocked after everything we'd been through. And because of that, I guess the three of us were kind of struggling with getting our drinks and napkins and carrying our trays of food. I couldn't even tell you how we struggled with such a simple thing. We were just lost in thought, I guess. All I really remember is this little old man, a complete stranger, helping us bring our trays to the table. We didn't even ask for help. He just did. It was so weird because it was like he knew what had happened. I never got his name. The whole interaction couldn't have lasted more than 5 minutes. But I can still see his face.

I dont care if you think people are fundementally selfish. I choose to believe people are good and even if i get taken advantage of im going to do my part to make the world fair and kind

*through gritted teeth* the world is GOOD. people are kind. Humans are NOT inherently selfish. you will make it through this year. recovery is possible. people you don't know yet will love you. You are going to do things you can't even imagine right now. You are going to read a rlly good book. You are going to eat some rlly good food. You are going to experience joy again. Things can get better. Situations can change. You can choose to be kinder. The world can change for the better.
