This Makes Me Sad.

This makes me sad.

You guys never deserved this, and you still fucking don't. The fact that you still deal with this is just so goddamn upsetting.

And I know I am feminine to the core (and also a woman), but even I fucking know that this shit shouldn't be considered "the norm."

The fact that parents (as well as doctors in certain circumstances) still force their kids into "being" their AGAB regardless on who they are as people is fucking awful. And I strongly hate how this is how it is, currently.

I know it can get better, but it sure doesn't fucking look like it, at the moment. Change is probably just be taking its sweet-ass time, which is goddamn infuriating (what can I say? I'm impatient as fuck).

Why is it so fucking hard for us as a society to just fucking accept each other for our differences like we've seen in every other goddamn species on the fucking planet? It shouldn't be that hard.

If the person isn't fucking hurting anyone (or doesn't have a history of doing so), we should just fucking accept them and move on. No prejudice or anything to get in the way.

Trans men and transmascs aren't gonna be a goddamn danger to anyone for just being trans or men. The fact that other women don't accept that pisses me off.

And the fact that I share a gender identity with morons that, frankly, might be the ones putting you guys in danger and not vice versa pisses me off sometimes, ngl.

Like, I love being a woman, don't get me wrong. It's just some of these fucking idiots who I SHARE MY GENDER IDENTITY WITH are putting you guys in danger, and I hate that so goddamn much.

This fact always makes me so fucking upset. People always talk about the struggles of trans women/fems—which does happen and needs to fucking change because it fucking sucks—yet always want to ignore the struggles of trans men/mascs or pretend it doesn't happen, and that any trans men/masc who speaks out about their experiences is a liar and misogynist which isn't fucking true at all.

Like you should be able to speak out about the bullshit you face and not get backlash 'cause it is bullshit that you've dealt with it, and you have a voice that deserves to be fucking heard.

The moment we as a society can finally get on that page I hope I am alive so I can fucking see it. This shit is taking too goddamn long.

Being forcefully raised as a woman is not any less traumatic and emotionally repressive as being forcefully raised as a man. Femininity is not inherently pure and safe. Coercing someone to perform femininity is not any less toxic than coerced masculinity. Being dysphoric around femininity or having trauma from women doesn’t make you a misogynist.

I reach out to you today with a heart heavy with both pain and hope,💔🥹 seeking your help to save my family from the horrors of war in Gaza. We are a family that includes women and children, living every day under the weight of fear and destruction. 🙏 I write to you because I believe that humanity and compassion are our shared strengths, and when we unite, we can achieve miracles. ❤️

Sorry for the "ghosting," I haven't been as active on Tumblr (mental issues tend to get in the way).

I looked at the URL as well as the initial post with it attached (since I am slightly cautious with these things because I genuinely wish to help the best way I can), and while I cannot lend money myself (my family is broke as well), sharing the link to the fundraiser might at least help a little bit, since it will give it more coverage.

To those who see this, just like with any fundraiser, please support this if you have the ability to do so. Every bit of it counts.

Donate to Help heba and his family to survive their life, organized by Heba Alanqar

Hello, I am Heba Al-Anqar, 21 years old, a university student. My universi… Heba Alanqar needs your support for Help heba and his family to

Storytime cause I can't fit it in the tags:

I live with my dad, but he's such a hindrance that as soon as i move out he's getting blocked on everything.

Now, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't call him abusive, really, but he does have abusive behaviors he tends to do as he was raised that way by an actually abusive piece of shit father:

He (unknowingly) gaslights us constantly, meaning I don't trust him anymore and won't ever again.

He sleeps most of the time, and all he is worried about is literally going back to bed, not caring about helping us.

He will ask us if we need anything, but if we don't, he fucks off and goes to fucking sleep where we can't get him if we end up needing him later.

He shuts down anyone if we try to explain something he doesn't wanna hear (at least me and mom).

He talks back even when he is 100% without-a-doubt wrong.

Because he kinda often beat my ass until i was 6 at most i don't trust him with fucking any of my problems

And before anyone gets on my ass without context, yes, my dad has narcolepsy; that's not the problem. The problem is that he doesn't even try to help us. "But he asks y'all if you need anything—" yes, but that isn't his goal. He asks so he can get the greenlight to sleep for 4+ hours cause he doesn't actually want to help us.

Normally, this would be fine (my brother is an adult), but with us, it's not. Since he always did everything for us growing, my older brother can't take care of me (as i am greatly disabled) cause he doesn't have the fucking skills to and feels incompetent in his (good enough) abilities, so he always gets our dad to when I want nothing to fucking do with him.

This is why my mom had to stop working. We were literally dysfunctional without her to take care of me because my dad was such a terrible father that my older brother—who is a fucking adult—is too incompetent to help take care of me like my mom tasked him with for fuck's sake.

reblog for larger sample size :)

This is verrrrry goddamn easy, guys.

If it isn't hurting anyone, don't bother.

I slightly struggle with this as well, but it's only with things that initiate the gag reflex or cause me to have a headache (the examples mentioned do not cause either).

And things that do this include, but not limited to:

Cat gack (which is worse than our vomit despite it basically being the same thing)

Food cooked in the microwave that has to be cooked in the oven or says it's microwaveable but really isn't

Talking about inner organs (ours and other species)

The nervous system (ours and other species)

Specific bones (but skeletons—and more recognizable bones minus baby animal & human toddler skulls—as a whole are fine)

Medical terms I recognize in regards to the above shit.

But people's harmless decisions don't bother me whatsoever, and neither should it bother you, regardless of who you are as a person.

As an adult you must cultivate the skill of “Gross! Oh, well. Not my business.”
