This Is Actually A Very Good Answer. I Just Wish The Trans Youtubers Who Threw Otherkin Folk Under The

this is actually a very good answer. I just wish the trans Youtubers who threw otherkin folk under the bus had thought about it too, but to be fair I hadn't thought about it either.

I hate having to choose between being otherkin and queer sometimes. The way queer people jump to throwing otherkin people under the bus in order to uplift their own existence is... upsetting.

I get it, when you have transphobes using that litter box story to 'call out trans lunacy' your first instinct is to say something like 'nobody is identifying as a cat! That's ridiculous!' But it's alienating to have people of my own community claiming people of another community I'm a part of are crazy.

people who are hated and invalidated by even other queer people, stay alive.

golden tags, OP.

Anyway. Bi and Mspec Lesbians aren't a hotly "debated" topic or even new to queer culture, it's just the newest thing that bullies who REALLY want to be homophobic and even racist use to justify harassing gay people they don't like.

It's the thinnest possible veneer of progressive language wrapped around TERF and reactionary rhetoric so that they can feel righteous for forming an angry mob against vulnerable targets. If you're gullible enough to fall for the newest wave of bigotry within the queer community, and turn on your allies because they're "confusing" or "invading your spaces," the SAME way they turned on bi/pan labels, trans people, xenogenders, neopronouns, and aroace people before this, then get lost.

I looked this up and apparently arm pain from sneezing can just... happen?

lies down: back hurts

sits cross legged: hips hurt

sits "normally": back hurts (again)

sits with knees up: shoulders hurt, for some fucking reason

sits on the floor: everything hurts

can i have a win, please??

If you can’t do anything about it, then let it go. Don’t be a prisoner to things you can’t change.
