I see grown ass adults who are emotional cowards seek continual easy hits of deluded superiority, and I watch in fascination as they return over and over again to racist/misogynist/transphobic talking points just as dogs return to their vomit.

Maybe feeling superior to bigots isn't that scandalous (I'm evaluating the content of their character after all), but it's an uncomfortable feeling still.

I've had a minute to process my feelings about how a very large percentage of my country are xenophobes, white supremacists, or nazi sympathizers and that they've embraced this ideology intentionally. Right-wingers haven't been "tricked" or "conned," they're obviously happy to enact their malice. But like many of you, I want a pluralistic, egalitarian society where everyone is safe and valued, where we collectively take care of each other.

Conservatives: how dare these children try to take gender for themselves and change it? Don't they know it is us who rules over gender

For anyone who’s curious, here’s a transcript of the part of Natalie’s Q&A livestream where she talks about the buck angel stuff https://pastebin.com/7rT69LU3

How do I even start going about trying to come out as trans? Are there resources for this? How do I even go about describing this? Assume my parents don't have the slighest idea what being trans is, they don't want a daughter all of the sudden, and I more than anything just want to be honest about my mental space with them. I'm drafting a letter to read to them right now, I guess.

Gender assigned at birth is deeper than just how parents raise them. It’s what media tells them they’re supposed to act like. It’s how teachers and caregivers influence and treat them. It’s how these influences make the child think they’re supposed to act like. You cannot escape gender in current day society unless you actively push back against it.
