transister.social

there is a reason for every oddly specific rule, and I just added “inform me in advance of any spiders/exotic animal collections” is one of my meetup rules

making dongle and port jokes

for maybe a year or two after starting hrt my sweat had pretty much no smell. The last couple months tho I now have a fairly strong hard-to-describe but not-masculine body odor. Idk if this is normal or even girl smell and all the cis ladies I ask to sniff so I can check keep calling the police

so anyway idk what’s up with that, how u doing

spending my saturday night a little intoxicated while thinking about collective nouns

so far while visiting family in north carolina : a random lady at Costco came up to me to say she never eats at chick fila, a nice they/them complimented my hairstyle, when my tap to pay was struggling the cashier said to my sister and i “dont worry ladies, yall take your cokes for free”, and a waitress at the olive garden gave me extra french fries

your girl out in nature today trying to hide from the day star as effectively as possible

At the “googling how long does ativan take to start working” part of my family visit

found a whole bunch more problematic transfems to follow! pretty good day

i seriously thank god one of ginny’s first few friends was a problematic tranny

(as i am my own creator~ in this context it’s me I’m the god)

Imagine telling a Black woman explaining her specific challenges due to intersectionality. When they are concerned for their safety you see it as frivolous and tell them “it’s not the oppression olympics stop talking about your experience and go to therapy to get over it”

Imagine telling a trans person in a wheelchair speaking to their specific challenges is gauche, attention seeking and trying to score oppression points.

Idk all I can think of is that it’s either bootlicking or true hatred and transphobia so i try to assume the former.

there is way worse transphobia on queer fedi with “approved signups” than on mastodon.social which has actually removed transphobic posts within minutes

being transphobic only to trans women is still transphobia, actually

@Genderqueerwolf it’s not internalized rhetoric, we are living the reality that a majority of people think we are predatory and that our mere existence is sexual

even beyond the risk, experiencing that people see us that way is an ongoing daily trauma for trans women.

idk kind of interesting with transfems that you immediately blame us (and so personally and condescendingly) instead of asking if there might be a good reason, something you are privileged not to experience ❤️

queer people fuckin love a transfem callout

Feeling a weird confluence of emotions:

annoyed my ex abandoned her parenting responsibilities at a very tense time of my life

night turning super girly and high femme, like, we planned a spa day girly

I’ve been very subdued and dulled lately as a survival mechanism/trauma response (iykyk and my trans girlies at least probably do 😊), and I’ve started to carefully push back against that tendency.

It’s hard navigating the world as a trans woman, and if I don’t stay selfaware enough I slip into old patterns that served me well in the past or, more frequently now, serve others at my own expense.

When I get this way, I get quiet. I hide from everyone - even the friends and community I know I need. They don’t seem stable and safe; too present in my mind is that one small misstep and everything falls down once again.

Anyway that was kinda heavy so I’m gonna go get some pancakes with my daughter now, hope u enjoyed your dose of ginny lore

im staunchly against the death penalty but trans women should be able to descend en masse upon a man who says ‘men/transsexual women’ five times in their 500 character bio and enact whatever their favorite type of murder is. or just whatever murder vibes they are feeling that day, sort of play it by ear for the more improvisational types

Playing a game of “clockable trans girl or cishon” rn at the pancake house

Every now and again I’ll get a notification someone I slept with joined Signal and I do not like that functionality, like do I show up on there phone too, what if they try to talk to me again

Almost kicked someone in the shins for saying it’s a shame when good looking afabs transition, kinda fomo’ing now
