musing about "signs" kids are trans
a lot of times when a trans person talks about how they shouldve known they were trans sooner, i dont let it bother me because you know, whatever someone needs to realize theyre trans is valid, and different things validate peoples genders differently and its completely dependent on the person
now when a trans person expects OTHER people to have known because of those actions,, then i get a little squinty.
like yea 90% of my friends in high school were dudes and i played a lot of video games but i would never say my mom shouldve known i was trans because of that. plenty of cis women do that. i refuse to invalidate them by expecting this to be so abnormal as to say its a "sign" that someone is a boy
Like, she/her pronouns? Love 'em, great, never wanna go back. Calling myself a girl or a woman? A little weird when I say it out loud with my man voice but still workable. Calling myself transgender? Hang on have I earned that one?
i want to see a pokemon fan game where you play as a pokemon who stole a trainer's hat
and discover that nobody can tell you're a pokemon as long as you're wearing the hat
the professor offers you a starter pokemon and you just kind of bat at one of the pokeballs with a paw, so they say "the strong silent type, yeah? some of the most powerful trainers in the world were the same way"
you fight the first gym leader by placing a pokeball down with your mouth and pressing the button, and your opponent is wowed by your eccentric technique
and the whole game continues that way until your hat gets knocked off in the middle of the battle with the champion

Self-harm, question
So, after a bit over a month clean, the urge to start beating myself is returning. Does anyone know any good alternatives for the *sensation*? I'm looking for something like how with cutting you can snap rubber bands against your wrist. Something that gives me that same feeling as beating myself would, without being as self-destructive.
(Please don't just tell me to hit a punching bag or do something else or whatever. That's not what I'm looking for right now.)

@DissidentKitty @sydneyfalk technically everything we see is only an image of the thing reflected in our eye, and an image subject to interpretation at that. The real may exist but it cannot be perceived objectively
i think sharing some older #inktober work would be a good place to start 😊 i followed a witchtober prompt. started october 2016 and finished july 2017!
all pieces were created using a dip pen (513ef nib), black sumi ink, two or three gray copic markers, and white bristol paper.

Gender and underwear discourse
Is it really that big of a deal that I find boxer briefs to be more comfortable than underwear sold in the "women's" section? Is it really that big of a deal if some masc presenting people prefer underwear sold in the "women's" section? Like, no one even sees it. What's the deal?
