  • i don’t have any words of comfort or appeals that it will get better. i will look for a piracy site for outlander the show. there is nothing i can prescribe you to say “Things Will Improve Massively!”

    sucks you two drifted apart. the idea everyone has different ‘paces’ in life has never soothed me. there’s only been the Best course of action for that specific person. you got sick and you resent that and it changed what your course was and it stopped you from doing many many things. you’re right. i’m sorry you have to deal with that, that it impedes your function and your mental state. steve being ‘ahead’ is still unfair. i’m sorry you’re in these straits. i’m sorry you have to do things like begfor things that should literally just be there, available. i’m sorry you have to deal with the shitty health system.

    sorry. i dont know if any of this helps, you know your life better than anyone here. what you described in all your comments just makes me angry for you and misfortune. as long as we can help you with Something concrete and material rather than the emotional toll/symptoms/product of a bigger problem

    what would, if not making you happy, would alleviate some of this immediate anger and misery? i mean apart from me shrinking into your body and fighting your sickness. which i would really want to do. the show you want to watch? food you like? what would you want someone to say? this is a sincere question. what do you believe would give you even an increment of happiness? i would like to try to see what we could do.

    also steve being a dick is like. Thats dickhead behavior. i can sort of be like, well im glad hes happy, and sometimes ppl do drift apart, but for one again it does suck u werent able to keep up w hik and also that his job is stupid

    also. u briefly talked about ur assault. i dont know what sorry means, and i doubt itd help, but i hope whatever justice exists, whether it means theyre removed from this mortal coil or something else, arrives. i dont believe in a specific means of justice being the best in absolutely every scenario. so if its punitive? Sure. damn them









  • this is less about the actual fighting and more about the now martyred khameini:

    "We must look to bring the ideas and system of Islam out of the realm of pure mental abstraction—like all schools of social thought—by looking at practical responsibilities, especially in the realm of social affairs, and reorienting theoretical discussions to see what their implications are for human life, what their goals are, and what methods they prescribe for meeting these goals.”

    taken from a book of young Khamenei’s speeches during Ramadan, 1974, called Islamic Beliefs: Reclaiming The Narrative. this is REAL liberation theology shit. recalls uncle ho’s quote about revolutionary morality.








  • i hope this does not sound patronizing, but i’m very adamant about this. don’t ever think about yourself infringing on the space of women or unable to speak on having a woman’s experience as a trans girl. first. you’re a girl. you’re a woman. trans girl makes no difference, in fact it only further proves you’re a girl, who systematically faces equal/more of a brunt by society on average than a cis girl (in no way diminishing how misogyny is for cis girls). girl is a political designation as much as it is an identity. you are of that political designation, you are equally if not more oppressed on a systematic level. trans and cis girls are, by the social organizations and structures of family, patriarchy, exposed and vulnerable to sexual abuse/predation. trans girls are equally if not moreso exposed and vulnerable to misogyny however early (esp for girls that knew they were girls much earlier, but even late bloomers/anyone that feels like they realized late).

    now, on the topic of individual experience: i’m a cis girl, and my individual experience with sex and sexual violence and individual people perving or creeping on me has very thankfully been minimal. if as an individual trans girl you have never experienced such things, that still wouldn’t really exempt you from talking about systematic oppression, even though lived experience is valuable for that insight on the worst abuses the systems allow. still even as a girl, if i don’t find myself exposed to the harsh realities that other girls around me are exposed to on a day to day basis, i still qualify to talk about structural misogyny and the like. i just want to make clear that like… youre still a girl, youre oppressed just like the rest of us, i dont know. just dont want u to feel as if there’s this major distinction that makes u less of a girl in any sense.

    and as for the idea of the individual ‘creep’, it’s kind of shocking to really think about normalized sexual abuse, but that’s so often because. yeah what it says on the tin, normalized. family entitlement and the child as property, no matter how ‘normal’, all of its benign products often fall under that shit, infringements on the kid constantly and their body. thats another topic but idk its something i been thinking about. for some people they dont actually THINK about it, is what i feel, on the topic of sex abuse, like a mother can just touch a piece of their child’s body without consent and comment on it since they’re entitled, or a man can be overtly aggressive and violate boundaries since they wont face any major consequence. it’s not someone being constantly hounded by unwanted thoughts about touching and being violent to kids, which is why often i feel so sad when people who are really depressed about their intrusive thoughts are really believing that they are evil or going to do something when they’ve already shown more precognition about stopping themselves than others


  • i think your response is completely justified. as salah said it’s something a lot of girls experience early on, but even i as a cis girl have never really had an outright experience with creeps directly hitting on me. so it’s still very blindsiding when you first realize the extent of that experience and how some girls have simply… grown around it.

    it’s something that would obviously cause alarm and negative emotions, whether or not you think the extent to which it threw you off is ‘reasonable’ is something i wouldn’t think too hard about. it’s fair to feel like puking. it’s fair to feel completely off or knocked off balance. your mind is responding to a stimulus and maybe something else is converging that makes you have a much more intense reaction. it’s totally reasonable, it’s rational, it’s empathetic of you. take care of yourself today.
