Learning what I can, doing my best.

  • Hmm,

    Jump
  • Lol not the ones who do yoga that is true.

  • Did...nobody tell them?

  • Is this real?

  • Hmm,

    Jump
  • Actually, a lot of people in WV do yoga and are armed; do with that info as you will.

  • Oh yeah, I just mentioned it cause the ants def saved the plant. I had written it off it was so bad. Covered with aphids. Then suddenly it started blooming and producing (with the ants of course) and was shocked till I realized what was going on. You mentioning ants loving it made me think of it is all.

  • I had ants save my okra by turning it into a afid farm one year.

  • I mean, I engage with them regularly cause of community work. Have to meet people somewhere. You just have to ignore the lost causes.

  • No she said that.

  • The call is coming from inside the house situation

  • Looks like a shot from a horror movie.

    Rage Virus takes DC

  • A lot are bots are this point. I would think.

  • I thought it was keurig?

  • I mean, every time you get someone on "our side" going after medical issues or the body, it's inherently annoying and bad.

    Like, all you are saying is "I actually hate this thing that is natural or needed, but I can't say it normally, so I'll target those whom I can get away with it." Like, you are still a bigot. You are just being a more clever bigot. Those of us who are still affected by these issues see you and know that you are not a safe person to be around when you do shit like this.

    "lol he wears diapers" for example is shitty and ableist no matter how you slice it.

    It's like that meme of the person shooting an insult at a person and it bounces off of them and hits their comrade instead.

  • Also interesting this is happening right when that thing came out about women having babies later.

  • We went for fighting against segregation of sports by gender to...this.

    Also I want to show him what women's "grace" is all about. (it's my fist)

    I'm just so tired of people just putting up with this shit in Western countries. All this fucking talk and we just let them do more and more. But we can't do shit cause "oh that's not nice!" like fucking hell.

    Then of course you have this issue where women have been propagandized to believe in this shit also. Like it truly saddens how internalized this idea that women can't win is just bled into everything. There was a women on a state council that was going on and on about how women are these dainty, pure creatures who can't be able to compete. I swear she was a sentence away from saying "and if women run to much their vagina's will fall out!"

  • I refuse to look at the comments for my mental health. I've spent my life being told my existence is wrong. I don't need to see transphobia (that is what it is no matter how you dress it up) by fellow trans people and Communists. As a genderfluid butch I have gotten shit from everyone.

    But because I know its important I want to share my experiences.

    I have been beaten and physically harrased by men and women.

    In high school I was chased down and attempted to force make up on me by girls.

    Guys didn't know what to do with me and I would often get harrased a lot that way. Books slammed near my head. Etc

    Girls slammed my head on the side of the bus so hard it knocked my tooth out.

    What I wore has constantly been made fun of. Even if I did wear girl clothes or make up it wasn't the right kind or correct way.

    Dad was constantly on my case. I was white trash for wearing the same clothes as him at home. I was to fat. Etc

    I could go on. All of these experiences had to do with my egg ass being GNC.

    Toxic Masculinity exists but so does Femininity. Any time you do something to adhear to the system not because you want to but because you are "supposed to" is part of it. (Of course safety is a issue that doesn't count) There are many women out there who do things or don't do things because they are trying go up hold this idea of white patriarchal idea of beauty. I know because they will just tell you that. "Yeah I wish I didn't have to do this, but women have to". Like it really sucks honestly. I'll see my wife doing her nails or wearing a skirt and it makes me happy because it genuinely brings her joy. And she doesn't wear make up, because she doesn't want to. That's awesome. That's how it should be.

    I bring this up because its not really talked about in the lens of the patriarchy. Honestly there is a lot to be discussed about the intersection of it all. Sadly we are often stuck in very rudimentary concepts.

    I have had trans people look me in the face and tell me its easier for me or that masculinity in women is celebrated despite the hell I grew up with. In reality I'm accepted no where and get hate by everyone. I am not a women and I am not a man but I am and I am neither.

    What is masculinity to me outside of the toxic? Its quiet contemplation. Its no mess clothes that are comfy. Bring the one to encourage my friends. Finding a balance between "strong" and "emotional'. Its feeling my anger but putting it aside. If I'm honest without knowing I've always saw Ashitaka from Mononoke as a role model. Its about inner strength. Comfort in existance.

    I'll end this scatter shot of points by saying this. Which I think is so important for understanding trans liberation that so many people fail to grasp.

    What is good for the daisy is poison for the cactus.

    Liberation for me means no make up. While make up to someone else is the most important thing. Both are true and don't contradict each other. Life is wonderful and complicated like that.

  • It happens when you are disabled. I have gotten so many "oh you are the youngest one here!" at this point.

    Also, glancing down, came_apart_at_kmart is right. There is a lot of bad things happening on the public health department. I have a LOT of friends who need to go to the doctor regularly but don't because either they can't or their doctor trauma makes it very difficult for them to go. Hell, I have a great doctor now, but even for me the day is shot normally because I get so anxious because of previous bullshit i've had to deal with.

    All of this to say, don't take it personally. It's good that you are there at all and it might mean that you will last longer now then you would have if you didn't go at all.
