A Creature in the Void

when the FUCK did i write this

i really wanted to become the kind of woman who confidently calls people "babe", but instead i somehow did the grandmaskip and now i call all my friends "dear" and "darling"

being a trans guy is great because you get all the negative effects of being a woman in a patriarchial society and all the negative effects of being a man in a patriarchal society

This is why I will never understand trans people trying to destroy other trans people. We are all in the same boiling pot. Turning on each other won't make the people murdering us spare some of us.

me reading the end of the odyssey

(Penelope is a small black chihuahua, roughly the size of three bagels, and is being held out at arm's length.)

i know i said i did not want to talk about the nolan odyssey but i do have one more nodyssey post in me. i actually think the idea of odysseus understanding his story as existing both in and out of a historic timeframe is a fun way to handle the liminality caused by the story being part of an extensive oral tradition. however having him say "our age of bronze is collapsing" is perhaps not the way i would have done that
