Lol Heyyyy

another Black trans woman was found murdered, louisiana this time, and the news is consistently misgendering her in all the reporting. her name was marlow trottie and she was only 35 and she was a woman. don’t let them erase her womanhood.

People die on the job every summer. Remember that water and shade breaks are crucial when working in the heat, and calling emergency services for signs of serious heat illness (fatigue, nausea/vomiting, headaches, dizziness, clammy skin, confusion, agitation, slurred speech, high body temperature, rapid heart rate, etc.) is entirely appropriate. If you’re afraid to call 911 for reasons such as being undocumented, you’ll need to get very familiar with how to prevent, recognize, and treat heat illness. If you are symptomatic and not allowed a break, water, or medical treatment, walk out. No matter how broke you are, your job is not worth your life.

Official please put yourself first sign

not to be poor on main, but if anyone can spare $75 so we can get food to last us for the next handful of days, that'd be immensely appreciated. working on some big things rn and hopefully some yield fruit. i also haven't gotten any sensitivity read offers all year, so if you're looking for the best in the business, @ me pls :(

you have to be nicer to nonbinary transfems and that's literally the bare minimum

maybe just like. consider us at all please

literally doing the whole "I wish femininity was as impossible for me as it is for you!"

Life is too short to have sex you don’t like. Be gross, be weird, don’t do it at all if it’s not for you. Expand your definition of sex. Remove yourself from things that don’t feel good. Find positions and kinks and toys that work for you. Don’t let anyone tell you that sex needs to happen a certain way or happen at all. Orgasms are optional. Involving your genitals is optional. Everything is optional. Do what you like to do and respect what other people do and don’t like to do. Good sex doesn’t make you feel bad about yourself. You deserve to have pleasure in ways that work for you.

god i love trans womens voices

like idc if shes voice trained or not or somewhere in between hearing a trans womans voice is so lovely and warm it lifts my spirits and makes me feel at home trans women i love it when you speak keep doing that

we dont fucking get voice change on hrt. we dont get to post monthly fucking updates on how affirming our voices are. we either get ridiculed for having deep "masculine" voices or we have to spend so much fucking time and effort and money to practice a voice we have to consciously use every fucking time. and you come on my fucking post celebrating transfem voices and have the fucking audacity to bring up how lovely it is trans men get their voices changed on hrt? fuck yourself

You really start to understand that the “angry black woman” and “mean lesbian” stereotype only exists to shame us for the fact we get reasonably upset about people wanting to horrifically abuse us indiscriminately. Let’s get meaner !

even legitimately useful sex safety advice is always phrased as an imperative to health, never do this always do that you must not blahblahblah. same with drug use harm reduction stuff, they can never just say yknow this substance is associated with these risks and you will increase them if you xyx and can decrease them if you pqr, it's always written under the presumption that the reader's risk tolerance is exactly the same as the author's and so it would be simply unthinkable to aim advice at anyone who is willing to risk something you're personally not, because of course this is not about providing the information for others to rationally adjudicate their own personal priorities and needs but merely a matter of educating the reckless masses so they too may live according to the objective truth of your own personal risk assessment. they tip their hands because it's not like anyone talks about driving a car or getting exposed to respiratory diseases this way, imagine if mainstream sources were constantly written like you're insane and stupid for deciding you're willing to incur a potential crash because you want to go on a trip or like you obviously would never exist in a room unmasked if only you knew what the flu can do -- these activities are invisible, it's the socially stigmatised nature of sex or drugs or whatever that render them specifically problematised in this way. read some samuel delany about it idfk

love getting a queer clothing ad and they're selling booty shorts that say "this pussy's nonbinary too" and a jockstrap that says "faggot" all over it. so like. can a penis be nonbinary or.......

a trans woman cannot embody or own her desirability. it can only be granted to her by others

sex positivity is for cis women, it's for "faggots," it's for trans men, and it's for nonbinary people if they're TME, but it's not for trans women. sexual liberation is for other people. we must let others sexualize us, but we can never sexualize ourselves. you know I think there's a word for this I've heard somewhere.... something like "lisogyny"?

Frankly, I don't buy the theory that the repeated sweeping deletions of trans women's blogs have principally been the product of bad-faith mass reporting campaigns abusing automated moderation. I've been falsely mass-reported before, on multiple occasions, and nothing's ever come of it. Someone is pulling that trigger.
