i’ve struggled with this since i was a young girl plagued with awareness but not enough to understand there was a tangible and feasible solution. but i’ve learnt throughout the years (even those where i thought it was entirely hopeless) to let myself turn my brain off through watching (not shortform content or reels or things with nonsense algorithms or exposing myself to stupid social media) comforting media/shows/youtube vids (again whatever platforms i use i control by being very selective with what i watch rather than hoping just to use recommended), looking back with love at old photos of myself and those i care about (i’ve started to sort of worship this old baby photo and it makes me love myself), writing, drawing, and just remembering it’s okay to suppress most of those emotions when i don’t have a productive outlet. i sequester them away and i comfort myself with telling myself endless burning rage without a valid target just eats me alive, and i’m meant to be the fuel to something more important rather than letting myself die so quickly. sometimes you can let yourself forget. you need time for yourself.

and no offense to you op i know u and recognize u and i think a lot of ppl are a bit willy nilly with throwing around ‘ahh fed’ nowadays to genuine questions, but also like, this is not a serious ideology that is actually relevant in any capacity in terms of it succeeding at any point. there are people that express they want it on grounds that they’re transphobes and this is nice language to dress it up but really who gives a fuck.

prelim edit to add: okay yeah there’s that one samsung korea thing about like 3e? 4e? whatever that’s sort of like this but eh. i do not bet on the idea that the whole world will successfully install Large Scale Gender Segregation as the proponents of it envision (i mean we have some nowadays in terms of like. i guess bathrooms, sports)

i made some gijinkas for lemmy and hexbear specifically heheh… thank u for getting me somehow to do two full body shots, i was meaning to and this post somehow inspired me so much

thats the other thing i considered… hexbear and lemmygrad as sisters… magic bear and tankie lemmy gijinkas

heehee koopalings

it’s interesting cuz i was ruminating on this character design and since lemmy is decentralized and really all platforms are just offshoots, i was wondering if i would draw lemmy represented as one big frankensteiny girl… you know…

personifying lemmy sounds fun and i rlly like ur design for her, the hair looks rlly nice. now i want to

this is so low quality but i thought i had this image on my laptop, turns out i didn’t, had to google it

the full quote is actually “At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality.”

i am a true true fan of how he even adds the self-effacing ‘at the risk of seeming ridiculous’. people are always sheepish to actually speak from the heart, and the fact that he’s saying something most people perceive as sappy really makes it like doubly adorable / admirable. now, i am also a big fan of the mao quote, but i do think love is generally just a healthier practice for your own sanity

“the revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love” - che

this is a good quote, reminds me of that one quote i dont recall actually about like, him being a form of jesus/antichrist for liberal historians where they can pin all sins on him

#PACKWATCH

the medical industry has so many shitty sides to it even apart from the human meat grinder of insurance like i’m so sorry this happened ik its been tough but jesus. aw fuck them

not op but they have several old posts about this and basically they are a prominent student (only highschool!! waow) organizer working outside n often against school admin for palestine

alright, that’s good to know. well, i don’t know what consolation i can offer you but that’s really overwhelming and i’m sorry it’s still lingering in your mind. when you’re being overwhelmed like this, what helps more, trying to rationally overcome or dismantle the arguments or just trying to placate yourself via distraction or some sort of other balm? sorry again my responses are late :(

hi came here late from your other post! sorry friend. give me a minute to collect my thoughts, how are you feeling right now? better?

i really hope for the best for you

been thinking about this lately but i really do think in a better world trans ppl would be able to seek asylum away from usa.which is stupid because in perfect world people’s republic on central turtle island has trans rights embedded into people’s constitution but like. idk. hang in there, please

death to usamerikkka. and yeah, hang in there, it’s nice uve found company to talk about this with irl + again i totally resonate again with the unending frustration (had an episode actually just yesterday on this exact topic) transmisogyny is another terrible oppressive system of itself (and ive seen a few good writers who do analysis of it on materialist terms as well)

the only one i can say off top of my head is noroi the curse
