I was a trans kid and knew it around age 6, I was denied who I am forced to be someone I'm not.
I lived with a situation where I was punished, and reminded that I am a BOY, repeatedly trying to reinforce that, making me feel like who I am is WRONG, and making me suppress who I am.
I lived in MISERY, the feelings and fact I am trans didn't fade, they were still there, and what joined it was a desire to die.
I spent the first 20 years of my life thinking that happy was just something people PRETENDED to be for the sake of others, I wasn't allowed to exist in a way that made me feel comfortable and happy.
Being told I think I'm trans because I'm depressed didn't make me stop being trans, and treating the depression didn't make it go away it just allowed me to have SOME moments of peace.
Being trans isn't some trait that's forced upon us by our parents, it's not some exposure to anything nefarious.. It's simply who we are, it's no different than a straight person being straight, it's just part of who they are, they cannot just decide to be gay if they're not gay or bi.
Someone who is c!s cannot decide to be trans, it doesn't work that way. It's not something you can beat into someone, and it's not something you can just will yourself to change.
Being forced to go through a puberty we know isn't right is torture, and it doesn't get better for those who are trans it just gets worse, quality of life suffers, and that's unfixable without transition. You just don't care.
The reason suicide rates among trans people is so high, isn't because of us being 'mentally ill' it's not because of whatever crap you people make up, it's because very simply you cause it.
You punish us, you attack us, you make our lives miserable for something that can't be changed, you choose to be cruel, even to children.
The reason we fight for trans kids to have the ability to explore who they are, socially transition, block puberty is because we KNOW the pain, we KNOW that you don't 'fix' a trans person we just are who we are.
It's such a long drawn out process, with so much time to realize you're not trans that the rate of c!s kids ending up down that path is SO low, it's lower than any other category.
You can't just decide that someone doesn't know who they are after in my case 6 years (average point of getting puberty blockers) or 10-12 YEARS (earliest point of getting surgery.) Because weather you like it or not, we DO know, and we DO deserve to be happy.
It didn't work on me, and it doesn't work period. I'm still here, and I was when I was a kid too. You pretend we don't exist, well I'm sorry we DO EXIST in this world too, and we deserve to exist just as much as you do.
So I just want you to know that you're in the wrong, you're the cruel monsters, and you're the ones torturing kids and adults for being themselves because it makes you uncomfortable.
everytime I see a tweet about how "The movie Cars is facist" or some other stupid negative twiddlefuck, or have a stupid "commission" scammer show up in my streams from this stupid site, the more tempted I am to just delete the app as a whole.

As for the lack of content on the main channel, I haven't had the creative energy to do anything on there, buuut I do have a couple ideas fermenting in the noggin.
Figured I would post an update regarding the lack of streams recently: I've been wanting to strwam more, but find that I've been getting up too late of a morning to actually have the time.
Sometimes I wish I just didn't need to sleep, I swear 😅
