i don't want new friends who already like the things i like, i want family members to care enough to ask what i want, to ask about the things i care about without it being a way to pass the time, i want friends i already know and care about to care about me enough to engage me in my interests. am i just being childish? maybe. i don't know

hey is it unhealthy for me to feel deeply unseen and unknown because i spent the last two months trying to control my diet and lose weight only to recieve a literal kilogram of chocolate between 3 different gifts, as well as chutney (something i do not like) as christmas gifts, and out of 10 people giving gifts, only two items from my wishlist? is it unhealthy of me to feel deeply invisible because i can't seem to be important enough for other people to ask me about the things i like

The often repeated stereotype of trans women all being coders or hackers has unironically been the thing that has most made me feel isolated and unwelcome in the trans community, by a long shot. When is it my turn to be the modal trans girl so everyone has to get into cooking and model making and writing sci fi

If you are running a conference or expo in this day and age without 100% enforced masking and COVID testing, you are openly stating your hatred of the disabled, no matter how much you might think you're an ally, you're not

Learning about how this "39c3" thing has had COVID safety controversy swept under the rug and wow, I can see why.

CW: griping, genitalia 

I'm not a kind enough or gracious enough person to sit at the same table as transfems who've had grs, it feels like abandonment, assimilation into a privileged class, and I know that makes me a bad person but I don't have it in me to get over that jealousy

CW: griping, genitalia 

Sitting here seeing posts by other transfems who are talking about having had grs and just, being filled with hatred and loathing and jealousy knowing that I'm not even being seen by the NHS gender service yet let alone on the way to getting a grc or any kind of surgery. I'm barely diying my hormones with official GP support and it hurts to see just, joyful talk about something it feels like I'll never get

being disabled and kinky is an exercise in trying to explain to people that i want to be unable to walk because of something i wanted, not because of something that wasn't my choice
