Feeling pretty gender today. Happy TDOV from a 44 year old trans man.

As legislation gets more and more hostile towards us, I get increasingly bitter at how visibility without action results in us becoming targets and wedge issues. It’s exhausting.

I hate having to plead every day to cis folks to take this crisis seriously. TDOV especially feels like “beg to be seen as human beings” day.

Every trans person posting today is opening themselves to a spike in harassment that might follow them for the rest of their lives. Just in the hopes that our allies could do something beyond telling us we are valid. We know we are valid. We need action so we have the same opportunities to survive and thrive.

Cis folks, you can challenge transphobia in so many ways:

Give to trans orgs and trans people directly

Stop supporting and platforming transphobes such as the wizard lady

Become more involved in local politics, from contacting your reps to voting regularly

Make your workplace more trans friendly by explicitly protecting gender ID and presentation. Normalize preferred names. Get rid of gendered dress codes. Etc, etc.

Be brave and call out all the casual transphobia you encounter. Even if it’s coming from your own family. Especially here, really.

Listen to trans people. Follow us on social media, uplift our voices where you can. Resist the urge to tell us you’re “one of the good ones”. Learn about our challenges, especially how they intersect with race, disability, etc.

I’m being visible today for fellow trans folks who are being made to make themselves small, or even invisible. I want to let y'all know that you deserve to take up space in this world. That trans folks of all ages exist and have always existed. That being trans is not a tragedy or a threat, just because cis folks think so.

i am in NO way like Martin Blackwood! Why do I keep getting him in TMA quizzes

GUYS GUESS WHAT

I took my friend (who doesn't get out much and needs to have a quiet retreat space) to the library today.

I FORGOT HOW RAD THE LIBRARY IS.

-My library has private rooms with locking doors that you check out with your library card and then have keycard access to.

-These rooms are made of plexiglass for Obvious Reasons, but still. Rooms.

-I checked out a Lounge space and, guys, it's a balcony.

-It's over the main entrance to the library so you can see everyone coming in and out. The door locks so it's private, but it's also open air to the tall ceilings and has SO MUCH natural light.

-literally so much natural light the one exterior wall is floor-to-ceiling windows with a view over a fountain and a courtyard and the local shopping district. the sunset was rad.

-My laptop connected directly to the WiFi.

-There were so many people there! There are chairs spread throughout and a bunch of computers and people just chilled and hung out!

-My friend was thrilled to be able to navigate a quiet space with strangers who didn't speak to her, and then to have a retreat space.

-My library also has a Makerspace (!!!) and a Cricut machine (!!!) and I can email someone and get trained in how to use it!

-Someone was in the recording booth and I couldn't tell what she was reading but it sounded cool.

-There's a whole room along the side of the upstairs that's just for teens. Like literally just. The sign says that if you're not a teenager you should see the staff for other rooms. There wasn't anyone there when I stuck my head in but there's a giant whiteboard and orb-style chairs and

-sorry I forgot to mention that my balcony has not only a couch but also several big comfy chairs (like, I can sit on my chair and put my feet on it too and balance my book on my knees and it's STILL not too small of a chair) and a couple coffee tables and a corner where the sunlight isn't direct y'all it's so nice

-I'm so glad my tax dollars went to this, guys. We're stuck on campus for Thanksgiving break and we desperately needed to go somewhere that didn't cost money.

-for as much as I get on about the necessity of Third Spaces, you think I'd remember this.

-I also found out my friend likes Agatha Christie novels. She read me a section while I washed dishes tonight, and I think I'm gonna like them too.

Happy 40th to the special-ist man, 7 and a half light years away!!

Today’s his big day guys! Nothing could go wrong on such a special day right? Be nice to the birthday boy :)

God, shout out to blorbos. You're the only people I can say "you're stupid, I love you" to and make my heart ache

Listening to Malevolent feels like:

I don’t think I’m the first nor the last to say it, John right now sounds like a man in a tin can

I am:

○ Male

○ Female

○ Other

● drowning (there is no sign of land) (you are coming down with me) (hand in unloveable hand)
