@S0phie_S0pht I’m asserting my personal boundary by not referring to you as “Sophie” as I dislike the name. Have a good day, Arnold. Hope you don’t mind me asserting my boundaries about your name.
Mustache is officially long/thick enough that water clings to it, I’ve gotta re-learn how to drink lmao. One of those many unexpected side effects of being trans
the reason I don’t call myself a “Leftist” is because there is no shared goal I have in common with neoliberal blue voters or authoritarian statists with the hammer and sickle in their bios or any “anarchist” who does not recognize and work against all forms of oppression
Thoughts from a suicidologist on the new 988 crisis hotline:
1. Having a simple number is good.
2. Having more trained crisis teams is good.
2. It's still linked to nonconsensual active rescue which means they can & will trace your call & send police if they deem it necessary.
For #DisabilityPrideMonth I wanna talk abt how psych illnesses are disabilities but not only are many ppl w psych illnesses not exposed to idea of psych illnesses being disabilities but there is sanist discrimination in structures that are supposedly designed for disabled folks.
some of yall might be mad at me for this but stop using “any pronouns” and just say “she/he/they” if you dont want ppl to use neopronouns when referring to you.
Yes, I care about these women’s reproductive rights. But they don’t seem to care about mine nor do they recognize the fact that this goes beyond reproductive rights. Especially for disabled people and our medicine.
I’m so sick and tired of being completely erased. As a disabled, Mad, trans/queer man I need white abled cis women to SHUT THE FUCK UP. JUST. STOP. TALKING. This is a GRIM time for people like me and we’re DONE with the gendered language and erasure of disabled experiences.
And it's not a coincidence that most of the people speaking up about this issue are marginalized while the ones blithely suggesting that eugenics is a-ok are white and able-bodied and doing their best to put those marginalized people in their place.
A lot of people are upset about "just sterilize all the men" jokes not because male bodies are precious and shouldn't be controlled even in jest but because this is a thing that actually happens to men who are disabled/PoC/poor/etc. (It happens to women also.)
