onlyfans request like "can i get one of you appreciating your sex from the front? and one from the back with your feet in the shot? and a video of your face while you're appreciating your sex"
and how do you know you're really an ally, not just somebody who likes the idea of supporting trans people? don't you know that almost 1% of allies eventually regret it
oh, you're an ally? but you're so normal! oh wait, that's a microaggression isn't it? sorry, this is all just so new to me. you can't expect me to be on-board with everything allies do & say from the jump, we need time to adjust
like, allyship between two consenting adults is fine. but children????
i can only apologise for my allyphobia. i'm listening and learning
allyship IS allyship, you ARE a valid ally even if you never do anything about it. my second cousin once removed is an ally, so you know i support you

judges ruled today that blocking our access to medicine doesnt violate equal protection. not even slightly coincidentally, the blue check liberals here decided to make an example of a trans woman who was tired of empty slogans standing in for real support. these are the walls we're crushed between
i cannot believe we are into year 2 of the groyper regime, the camps are open and the state is revoking id's, and we are still getting "oppressed minorities are kinda rude on the internet :/" hand-wringing
yeah we're a little tense right now, believe it or not. fucking shut the fuck up about it

sorry for not appreciating your heckin good allyship enough π it's just that they're killing us and the upper limit of your response is kind words
this rules so much, hell yeah
i'm just tired of watching people like me begging for jobs, for housing, for money for food, and things only getting worse
some allies are wonderful, comrades-in-arms. but many more are just rehearsing for their 'first they came for...' moment
people who call themselves allies love to talk down to trans people about how we're so harsh, so unworthy of their beneficence. as if we're coming a place of ignorance, not direct experience
britain be like 'oi, you got a loicence for that internet radio?'
i solved the redirect problem but now they're asking me to make an account. sorry but i hate the BBC too much to do that π
ah yeah it is! it's breaking when redirecting me to bbc dot com, i'm going to try to stop the redirect
if you're upset that trans people think your statements of allyship are hollow, recognise that we formed such opinions by experiencing the behaviour of people who "said all the right things"
we're not congenitally cynical. we have whole lives not captured by your little screenshots

it's also deeply frustrating to read the comments from people saying "uh yeah, maybe In This House is cringe but i'd rather see those signs than Trump ones!", like they don't give a shit that many of us have been hurt badly by people who performed allyship but practiced transphobia
hemry framing eva's post as being about jargon or virtue signalling is very similar to what she was criticising in the first place: that for many allies using the right words is the ceiling, not floor, of their activism
transphobes harm us materially, allies help us linguistically. see the issue?
for some reason, thinking about my friends who are dead or struggling with clinging to life is really depressing me. i'm gonna log off and cry rq
oh, you think trans women are brave? name 3 of my dead friends
do you think my ancestors would be pissed off about me complaining that the life-saving medications i have to take have somewhat unpleasant side effects
in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy
Yes, hello, is that God? Yeah, hi. I have a complaint. You gave me this brain thatβs designed for finding berries and avoiding lions and now people are βjust circling backβ to see if we can βmove the needleβ on βkey initiativesβ? NONE of those things are berries.
this is the general sentiment expressed about my posting, yes
the literal meaning is "that feeling when no 'my face when no girlfriend' boyfriend". 'mfw no gf' is an old meme, often used sarcastically
as to what the whole thing, with the attached image, means? no idea. it just seemed funny in my head
america is a world leader in the field of creating people who do, or want to, kill americans
i don't know what this means, so if you do please tell me. or don't, if you think that knowledge might be harmful to my mental health
A stock image of a woman sitting in an office looking at the camera with a deadpan expression. She has her phone in one hand off the the side, as if the camera is interrupting her scrolling time.
