“i thought transmasc and transfem just meant your starting gender. transmasc are just afab trans ppl and transfems are amab trans ppl? like. if ur nonbiney you’re still one of them.. it’s just what it’s called or idk. maybe that’s not what this means lol-maybe this is abt being intersex and i’m just dum” END ID

With utmost sincerity, @dreary-giraffe​: this isn’t you being dumb. Plenty of people do use transmasc to mean afab trans people and transfem to mean amab trans people! But this wasn’t specifically about being intersex, though a big issue of mine with people using transmasc/transfem like that is the fact it’s intersexist. 

What I mean is that just because someone was AMAB and trans doesn’t mean they’re transfeminine. Transfem is a term for a trans person whose gender relates to or even relates their gender presentation to feminimity, in some form or another. It’s not even AGAB(Assigned Gender At Birth) specific! 

Not all trans people who were AMAB identify with feminimity, or want to be called transfem. And vise versa for trans people who were AFAB. By separating trans people out into these two categories, with assigned genders at birth attached, not only is it intersexist as fuck, but it’s transphobic and just creates another gender binary that tons of trans people don’t fit into.

Some people like to use terms like transandrogynous or transneutral but people shouldn’t have to specify which type of trans person they are or any intimate details about their gender at all just so that people don’t decide for them whether they’re a “masc or fem” trans person.

Since we are here might as well share the dhoti and the lungi

It’s only men in the photos but really anyone can wear them. I am wearing a lungi right now.

Can you hear this exoplanet screaming?

As HD 80606 b approaches its star from an extreme, elliptical orbit, it suffers star-grazing torture that causes howling, supersonic winds and shockwave storms across the planet. Its torturous journey boils its atmosphere to a hellish 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit every 111 days, roasting both its light and dark sides. HD 80606b will never escape this scorching nightmare.

This bone-chilling force will leave you shivering alone in terror!

An unseen power is prowling throughout the cosmos, driving the universe to expand at a quickening rate. This relentless pressure, called dark energy, is nothing like dark matter, that mysterious material only revealed by its gravitational pull. Dark energy offers a bigger fright: pushing galaxies farther apart over trillions of years, leaving the universe to an inescapable, freezing death in the pitch black expanse of outer space.​

Cygnus X-1 Presents:

It’s Dinner Time and You’re The Meal!

Lurking in our galaxy, approximately 6,000 light-years from Earth, is a monster named CygnusX-1. This black hole, which has about 14.8 times the mass of our Sun, will stretch and squeeze anything it captures in its immense gravity. Cygnus X-1 is waiting, snacking on its neighboring star. Don’t get too close, or you’ll become its next meal!

This chillingly haunted galaxy mysteriously stopped making stars only a few billion years after the Big Bang! It became a cosmic cemetery, illuminated by the red glow of decaying stars. Dare to enter, and you might encounter the frightening corpses of exoplanets or the final death throes of once-mighty stars.

Something strange and mysterious creeps throughout the cosmos. Scientists call it dark matter. It is scattered in an intricate web that forms the skeleton of our universe. Dark matter is invisible, only revealing its presence by pushing and pulling on objects we can see. NASA’s Roman Space Telescope will investigate its secrets. What will be revealed?

In the depths of the universe, the cores of two collapsed stars violently merge to release a burst of the deadliest and most powerful form of light, known as gamma rays. These beams of doom are unleashed upon their unfortunate surroundings, shining a million trillion times brighter than the Sun for up to 30 terrifying seconds. No spaceship will shield you from the blinding destruction of the gamma ray ghouls!

These doomed worlds were among the first and creepiest to be discovered as they orbit an undead star known as a pulsar. Pulsar planets like Poltergeist and its neighboring worlds, Phobetor and Draugr, are consumed with constant radiation from the star’s core. Nothing but the undead can subsist in this most inhospitable corner of the galaxy.

When you watch Shrek or Megamind you don’t spend the whole movie actively aware you’re listening to Mike Meyers and Cameron Diaz, or Will Ferrell and Tina Fey. Fuck it man even when you watch Despicable Me, Steve Carell does a good job of being the character. Chris Pratt is just like himself? Doing an impression of your friend from New York’s dad? And it actively pulls you out of the movie because you’re so aware of that! Good voice actors do the exact opposite and create a believable character and performance!!
