this guy, a veteran, is going to be protesting outside the museum tomorrow starting at 10am asking personally for the resignation of the predator. he hasn't asked for anything but i wonder if maybe we'd like to send him some pizza?

It’s really nice of my friends to tell me things I’ve told them at other times but am unable to tell myself 💕

I don’t think I am around any more people who try to convince me I was present at things I was not or have some complex nefarious strategy I am somehow completely unaware of but I don’t know for sure and I didn’t know then so I need these tools

I am going to add back in my nightly “here are the concrete events of the day” journaling. I think it was really helpful. I had been doing free write typing every morning for 30 mins too & stopped both while I was out of town and I can feel the impacts.

It’s hard to know what to do next when primarily I am just trying to work on shoring up my own reality. It was nice to be somewhere where I was mostly focused on observing & translating for a little while.

I understand what people mean when they say "during COVID" or "during the pandemic", but I think it’s wishful thinking at best, assuming we’re all safer than we truly are. What we really did was normalize sickness and leaving people behind. The current uptick in eugenics and fascism doesn’t lie.

--purged from the history books that you say that, and people go "oh, that's not true, no way he actually believed that," and it makes you feel insane. Anarchism isn't incidental to these stories either, often it was fundamental to what the person did. The excision feels violating.

Separately, from what I understand, sports separated by gender was also a backlash and form of segregating when women wanted to also play competitively. I think often focusing on where trans people belong misses the bigger underlying issues of accepted sex segregation in society.

While last year I would have been better off in those particular circumstances with no support rather than what I had, I actually would have had better support outside of them. It was right there and them doing some fucked up strategy actually prevented me getting the care I needed

Can you imagine if burning a flag actually made everyone “go crazy” and riot instead of just incite a bunch of protest photographers to appear?

Yeah this doesnt seem like it could be true. Huge numbers of people have used opiates after procedures or whatever and not died

When I say bystanders I do mean people who haven’t at all chosen to be involved, not like, the audience. But even if they do endanger some non associated people they certainly arent as dangerous to non involved folks as racing or even all kinds of other daily reckless driving.

I mean arent they contained to an intersection they’re blocking off? It doesn’t seem hard to not go near them if you don’t want to?

I do kinda like them. I’m against street racing because it endangers bystanders but these don’t really? I mean they’re loud but that’s just me not liking cars in general

I don’t really think that there’s any difference between calling human beings “NPCs” or calling them cockroaches or “human animals” or any other classic rhetoric of dehumanization and I find it pretty worrying that people who are otherwise concerned with respectability have adopted its use

The state of Florida came in overnight and painted over the Pulse Memorial site crosswalk in Orlando. This crosswalk abided by the state’s laws and was originally installed by them. To be clear, the state surreptitiously painted over this memorial at night against the city’s wishes. Cowards.

Newsom is a vile man with a cruel streak a mile wide. He's opposing the current administration because they are challenging his authority on his own territory, not because he sympathizes with the marginalized and oppressed.

‘Intelligence’ is a spectacularly dangerous concept. People use it to justify anything … but it turns to smoke in the wind as soon as you try to define it rigorously, and intelligence tests always turn out to be proxies for either privilege or obedience. 2/?

We were still actively dealing with my abuser. Their partner said they were stealing their friend (me) by fucking me. The other person who had a longstanding crush on me and who had previously said “piper is the only person [my partner] will let me date”

Instead of telling me they as they later told me, that they “already loved me,” they said “you fuck your friends right?”Within weeks then were telling me I was perfect and they wanted me to be part of their family and parent to their child.

When one of them fucked me while my survivor support was still ongoing I had told them I was terrified of losing my support network and they told me their partner wouldn’t care. They also pretended it was casual.

CW: topic of abuse? I don’t know how to content warning this tbh Last year, my survivor support was, unknown to me, two people who had longstanding crushes on me and their respective “nominally polyamorous” partners.
