Marsha didn't throw that brick just to have us all go back underground.
Is it me, or does time seem like it's passing by at a snail's pace or some points?

The ban only makes sense if you consider "trans children surviving to become trans adults" as a harm, as a failure state.
The ban only makes sense if you think most trans kids dying so *some* desist and identify as cis is a success.
May the Universe liberate us all from oppression, marginalization, pain, and suffering. โค๏ธ

Thanks for assuming I didnโt understand this tho.
what if your ideas are as in love with you as you are with them?
what if your creativity spends its days dreaming about you too?
what if art is a co-creation between you (the vessel) & the eternal source of all things?
what if this act of making is the universe experiencing itself through you?

Musk keeps ranting we need to breed more to produce more Einsteins. I wonder how many Einsteins currently work as busboys cuz they live in a wrong zip code.

People donโt listen to us because they donโt think of us as real people. Weโre invisible (at best) and completely disposable (at worse).
We are the canaries - and we are trying to warn you. Listen.
Do not EVER, no matter what gender you are, let a man or a woman tell you the limits of what you can do and who you can be.
That is the beginning of death.
NO ONE defines you but you. NO ONE gets to tell you who you are. NO ONE gets to defeat you before the battle begins.
