insane how you can’t even bring up shaving on tumblr without getting inundated with people desperately justifying why they shave (nothing to do with the fact that they were afab and therefore forced to shave at an early age, it’s completely a free choice that has nothing to do with their upbringing of course) or acting like they’re an oppressed class for shaving their whole body. like you guys are such losers jesus christ get over yourself & learn to scroll past posts that you dont relate to. i do it all the time! you can too^_^

it’s so funny bc my mom is like why do you shave and i’m like bc sometimes my leg hair starts feeling like little bugs and i get scared

if you grow it out enough it stops feeling like bugs and starts feelig fuzzy fuzzy cute cute

yea it’s been like 6-7 months since i’ve last shaved my legs now it doesn’t feel like bugs anymore 😂 it keeps me warm

Thought "you're not an ally if you're dating someone who is homophobic" was a cold take but some people are really struggling with the concept

You actually cannot skip to being good at a creative endeavour that you haven't put much practice into. You cannot trick your way out of the 'knows that your work is not what you want it to be but don't know how to improve it' stage by planning or reading or talking about it really really hard. At some point you just have to craft through it until your brain finds it's own unique way back to the 'everything I make slaps' stage and be prepared to start the cycle all over again. You just have to make that project you're excited about slightly less good than you want it to be. (Says this standing in a pool of blood and covered in blood and also coughing up a little blood)

if you are a queer earring maker at a queer friendly event you should have clipons and ADVERTISE THEM you will make SO MUCH FUCKING MONEY there are SO MANY CUTE TRANS GIRLS who want to try your earrings but don't have pierced ears!!!!!! I repeat YOU WILL MAKE SO MUCH MONEY IF YOU DO THIS

genuinely I have sold a couple runs of earrings now and I can provide solid evidence that advertising that clipons even exist as an option literally tripled my sales

And please if you have the options, get traditional screw backs without a hinged clip. Everything with a clip works by squeezing your ear as hard as it can. Screw backs let you manually tighten it enough that they won’t slip off, but no further, and are much more comfortable for longer periods of time. They seem to be dying out, though, and increasingly hard to get.

The early 2010s millennial hope of a better more progressive future contrasted with the sharp traditionalist alt-right U-turn that so many Gen Z and millennial men went down scarred generations of women.

90% of the time when someone's like "i they/them everyone i see :)" they rarely actually do that. they just they/them the people they think "look trans"

being a 26 year old woman is annoying as hell because youre either talking to people who are on the Im just a girl train or the Im decrepit and passed my prime train. hey what if we were just human adults

Blocking isff supporters and transandro bros in equal measure. I hate everyone on this site.

The rampant transmisogyny on this site only further pushes trans girls into that insulated group. Like sorry but transmisogynists do share an equal blame with the grooming of trans girls on here. It makes the job of isolating these girls very very easy by ensuring they have no outside support in the first place. Do better.

If you think misogyny doesnt exist within the queer community, you are probably benefiting from misogyny

If you think racism doesnt exist within the queer community, you are probably benefiting from racism

i am 100% convinced that mobile phone/ social media bans for under 16s are an attempt to remove kids and teens from public life. this is not protecting kids this is locking them in houses with no escape from their abusers. the world is so hostile to teenagers rn
