Hello <3
I'm May. I'm 26, a psychology major, and trans.
I like photography, drawing, poetry, moss, fungi, moths, opossums, league of legends, magic: the gathering, frieren, pokemon, bones, lizards, and people who are nice to other people.
Always open for new friends <3
We're updating our Community Competition Guidelines and are bringing back Triumphant Ryze to celebrate League's grassroots legacy!

@Myraabtw_ I kept pads in my car for years and still have a box in my apartment if anyone needs. Highly recommend everyone does this for those close to them who menstruate.
@Music_Expresses I got mine at a LAN at my university. I miss local League stuff. I hope my school starts running then again. They even gave out a trophy with our summoner names on it.
My team was set up next to Draher's and we heard him yell about how busted Tabis were the whole tourney.
I wish Courage the Cowardly Dog, FernGully, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and Bambi were more culturally relevant today. I feel like I go years at a time without hearing of any of them being mentioned and I wanna yap about them more.
It hurts when we talk about people who are no longer around, either passed away or just parted ways with. It's because we're not used to it so the pain stays fresh. Talking about them often, years later, it feels like they're still with us and so is the joy they once brought.
@graveflowerlily You simply will have to not let them know your thoughts on their IQ or whether you feel them taking a bath with their toaster would be beneficial for the planet
When a bipoc person is talking about intersectionality, it behooves you to put yourself in their shoes before immediately treating their words as a personal attack.
When a trans woc says “white trans people are oppressors too,” don’t just fixate on how harsh the wording sounds to you. Stop and ask why she would feel the need to say it. What experiences, patterns, or forms of marginalization is she trying to articulate?
You can disagree with her wording or ask for clarification without making the entire conversation about your own hurt feelings. Intersectionality requires understanding that being oppressed in one axis of identity does not magically make someone incapable of benefiting from, or participating in, oppression along another.
And harassing her off the platform because her message made you angry is ironically a pretty damn good demonstration of why she was talking about power and intersectionality in the first place.
