People are like "be careful of that trans woman, she was socialised male so she's dangerous" and then you look at her and see the most timid creature in the world who has never heard "I love you" from someone who didn't hurt her

been writing a thing, but it's like Maybe Too Personalℒ️ and idk if i'll actually post it when it's done but also it has felt good to actually write about and it's topical given recent high-profile events / timely for me personally aaaaa

I was staying strong until this point but I think seeing other women defend a cis white male rapist by saying it's just like a trans woman and shit is breaking me a bit and just logging off isn't gonna make me feel much better

I think a lot of liberals and democrats have such an alienated view of trans folks that they see us as β€œreally” our assigned gender, and think that they’re humoring or being polite to disabled or mentally ill folks when they use our pronouns or our names. They see it as kindness, politeness.

i'm so tired of it. tired of ignoring the harm these systems have done and will continue to do to child development. to mental health. to the environment. to poor communities, especially poor black/brown communities. to our ability to actually understand things.

I've increasingly seen the terms "Biological [male/female]" used to talk about trans people, even by people trying to be supportive, and I wanted to get my thoughts down about that. The tl;dr is that the terms are slurs and factually wrong, and pushing back when you see them is appreciated.

ok but one thing: what the hell is with the rng when artifact-hunting, i feel like it should be weighted (even slightly) towards finding unidentified artifacts in rare locations (ritual chambers, mist spots), and yet i keep getting the same damn artifacts every time

in a world of (arguably) too many "stardew clones", i think fields of mistria is my favorite super cute art, interesting characters, and really REALLY good pacing
