I'm Sorry.. What?

i'm sorry.. what?

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Philadelphia Municipal Court is resuming evictions as early as Monday, saying landlord tenant officers have now received training on use of force and de-escalation tactics.

landlord.. tenant.. officers?

"Though the sheriff has the power to serve evictions, the task is usually handled by a private force hired by a court-appointed attorney known as the landlord-tenant officer. These private security contractors — who are often armed — have long been a part of the local eviction system."

so landlords have their own private military? this is class warfare

This follows the court suspending all evictions in July after multiple tenants were shot during evictions over the past several months. In one incident in March, a plainclothes landlord tenant officer shot a woman in the head. In another incident in July, police said a woman was shot in the leg. A spokesperson for the court's Landlord and Tenant Office said evictions will now be conducted in teams of two officers who have all received Pennsylvania Constable training.

this is LITERALLY class warfare

The LTO is funded by service fees from landlords and not taxpayer money. Fees to landlords will increase from $145 to $350 to cover the additional staff, training and insurance costs.

and who the fuck do you think is going to end up ultimately paying those fees in the end? where do you think the landlords are going to get the money? you're just giving them an excuse to raise the rent. oh my god this country is a complete and total failed state.

Louder for those in the back.

If you're into sissy stuff, more power to you. There is nothing inherently wrong with it, and it has its own place in the kink community.

However.

If you directly compare having a sissy kink to being transfem, you're hurting a whole lot of people.

I'm a woman.

I go to work as a woman.

I have dinner as a woman.

I file my taxes as a woman.

I drive to doctors appointments as a woman.

I have sex as a woman.

Nothing about what I do is for pretend or for guilt-induced pleasure.

When sissy porn blogs like and reblog my pictures, I am directly compared to people who have a kink for being forced into feminization as a man, typically by other men.

Do you understand how invalidating that is?

I don't belong in that space. By putting me there, you are saying that I am just a hyper-feminised man, which I am NOT.

If you want to support the trans community AND have a sissy kink, don't fucking reblog my shit onto your sissy porn blog.

We don't belong there.

You know, I look at this and I think to myself;

"Man. I sound exactly like this at times."

Realistic reaction to seeing what the Horus Heresy series is like to read

Yup. Nice fluffy fox ears.

^^

reblog if u want fluffy animal ears

I want to say that with trans folk now being at risk of the fucking death sentence in Florida....

The time for community is Now. The time to start planning and organizing how to get our rights back is NOW. bring it up at your local LGBT craft events or book club or support group or whatever. Tell your friends. Spread the word. And maybe see which ones will have the safety and resources you'll need should a Lavender Hunt happen in your area.

And on the scarier end of reality....

This is fucking terrifying. Lots of people are at risk. Personally, I'm terrified this rhetoric will spread much like Trumpism did. I'm scared for my gf and I'm fucking scared for myself because we know historically that it isn't just trans folk on HRT or drag performers that they go after.

And you have every right to do whatever you need to protect yourself.

I'm not going to shame folks who quit HRT, who take the rainbows out of their bio, the people who start saying partner instead of revealing a gender, or anyone else taking a few steps towards the safety that the closet provides. WE shouldn't.

I fucking love you. And we'll be okay as long as we're together, okay?

We keep us safe

random fun fact

the picture that is featured above my profile picture at the top of my blog, the one with the cleric's desk with the floating crystal and the magic books and candle with a purple flame, also has a few pages scattered in front of the chair.

The texture I used for those pages is actually the first page in a script that I wrote and actually voiced. And now it's permanently entombed in a model. I bloody love my job.
