It’s not entirely jealousy. It’s more that the experiences, values, and challenges being discussed are from frames of reference so unlike my own that I could more easily relate to digital noise. Yet my engagement and investment are presumed because I’m “part of the community”.

10 months out of the year, the thing that annoys me the most about being queer is seeing self-deprecating posts from tall shapely dark-haired trans women with perfect bone structure who fuck a lot and have book deals. The other two months, it’s posts about Pride

Zelda, mournfully: “Witness the blood moon's rise. When its red glow shines upon the land... the aimless spirits of slain monsters return to flesh.”

Me, clawing my way out of a swirling red vortex of smoke: “cool”

imo a monster should bite me really hard in a non-vital area

practicing radical self-care by unfollowing nice but annoying people on multiple platforms. "if it sucks, hit da bricks”

werewolf transformation body horror (+)

Dysphoria 

Today while I was out running an errand, I saw a femme person whose shape, comportment, and wardrobe were all exactly what I wish I could be/have/wear as a human. That she was 20 years younger than me and also did not have her skeleton warped by The Wrong Puberty did occur to me, but not before I felt a wave of envy and self-loathing as sharp and disfiguring as a scalpel.
