the whole “you are silencing survivors” thing transmascvoicesproject/transgendervoicesproject pulls does not need to be taken seriously under any circumstances. mousidy ran a project dedicated to opening a dialogue for tma victims and survivors of abuse, took a break for her mental health, and this blog was created immediately. the purpose of the blog is to archive instances of abuse where the perpetrators were tma and the victims were tme — this is the language used, and this does explicitly include cis people. the blog took its initial intro post directly from the transfem voices project, and has accused mousidy of being “rapey” for discussing her experiences with sexual coercion (doubling down twice), having more ideological alignment with abusers of transfems than transfem victims, and directing her followers to send the blog gore and rape threats, an unsubstantiated claim. this is a transmisogynistic hate blog, and it is specifically a harassment campaign against mousidy, which seeks to make her look unreasonable for dissenting — why would you want to shut down a survivor-centric space? are you afraid of people knowing how pervasive the issue of transfem sexual violence is? this does not need to be taken in good faith. the point of the blog is to silence and punish a transfem survivor for discussing sexual violence. taking it at face value is pointless; we don’t have to play along.

been stewing on an analytical approach to fiction which I call "is this book afraid of me?" and in order to answer this question you determine how hard the book is trying to make sure you don't come after the writer on twitter

Please keep making art. Please make it for yourself. Please don’t let everything become even more of the same flat general appeal nonsense that doesn’t seem to have anything to say

ive had trans men ask me before how to overcome the insecurity/fear that they are transitioning just to escape misogynist treatment and wondering about the validity of their identity. the simple solution is that u must continue to engage and fight misogyny even when you are not a woman. prove your fear wrong

u really cannot out-validate an insecurity that u do not do the work to fight against the structure that supports it u know. i am the gender i am simply because it looked fucking yummy. the reason i dont experience doubts w it in this way is because any time i do i turn around to face the thing im 'running from' and punch it

"here's my original character, Man Who Sucks But Loves His Daughter Very Much" and it's a guy who worships at the altar of patriarchal violence and the woman he uses as an excuse and an effigy to absolve him

well i think his daughter should tell him to kill himself

the ontological innocence of being a downstairs neighbor cannot be understated

contrasted, of course, with the inherent villainy of being an upstairs neighbor

perfection is only achieved in the morally neutral next door neighbor
