**you're not an ally simply for using the name and pronouns you call our "preferred" ones, that's just the bare minimum, but you are definitely a transphobe for using a name that isn't ours to call us**

you're not an ally for just not going in an enraged panic that your friend came out as trans.

you'll be an ally when you stand up for them when they're being kicked out of their home, fired from their job, denied healthcare. when you work to make it so those things can't happen.

cis should not be considered trans allies for doing the bare minimum of not killing us, if you want to call yourself an ally then actively fight against the forces that want to commit genocide against us or shut up

Trans Day of Visibility is in two days.

I don’t want to hear about how you as a cis person relate to trans visibility. I want to hear what you’re concretely doing to stop what is quite literally genocide. twitter.com/aclu/status/137664

Re: Subtooting myself 

In my defense, writing is something I do A) for fun, and B) for myself. I'm lucky to get to a finished story with all my executive dysfunction issues and I pretty much never start writing with the intent of sharing, so if I do decide to do so, it'd need so much revision that it'd probably be easier to start over. So, yeah. I don't really revise or proofread and that's why.

Subtooting myself 

Nothing says "I didn't bother to revise or edit this" like a story being posted by me

I'm a snowflake, wondering where I shall land and what shall become of me over my short, short life

In the past 48 hours I've seen "If you use a tiling window manager you're probably a racist toxic fossbro", "if you support FOSS you're likely a liberal or a toxic fossbro", "If you use emacs you're part of the problem" and uh...

Can we just stop putting people in bins based on what tools they use and, more likely, what they had available to them when they first learned how to interact with tech?

Y'all stressing me out because I've seen these funny little takes go viral and become zeitgeist material.

If you think Stallman and/or the Free Software Foundation are the victims in the current situation please, for the love of christ, unfollow and block me.

If the founders had put driving a carriage in the bill of rights instead of bearing arms, we'd be having debates today over whether you should need a license to drive a car. Right-wingers don't actually care about whether bearing arms is an actual right that makes any sense; they just care about deifying a piece of paper written by some dead white men hundreds of years ago.
