Trans Day Of Visibility Day
in case I was invisible to you, I'm--genderweird. IT'S GODDAMN COMPLICATED OKAY. but I'm pretty sure I qualify, despite my general attitude towards genger being best summed up as "no thank you." AND YES IT'S GENGER NOT GENDER BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW SHUT UP I'M DRINKING COFFEE
tdov // transgender day of visibility
let me be visible to you like this, by sharing that we have always been here. our forebearers span humanity across all its history: we have been rulers and priests, mystics and negotiators; everywhere we have been everything, dauntless against eons of genocide. every breath we take honors those who came before, and those who will come after. you do not need to be visible to the cis; you are already visible to yourself. you are triumph cast in flesh ❤️
Now that I can "pass" and I can opt out of this double-edged holiday, there's a sense of obligation to make myself visible as a show of solidarity to my trans siblings, no matter where they fall in the continuum that is gender. Those who don't blend into the background, those who feel too afraid to even present as their true selves, need to be celebrated on this and every day, because it's so, so hard to be there.
You're beautiful and strong and brave, and I love you. I hope today is good.
X-files, Scully shooting things
I always loved that dichotomy, that Mulder was the sensitive curious "no but let's hear this out" person, and Scully was the "nope this is bullshit I'ma shoot it now" person.
X-files, Scully shooting things
Spouse has just embarked on binge-watching X-Files (dunno if old or new version), and I'm reminded of one of the few episodes I watched, the one written by William Gibson, of which I remember basically two scenes.
Mulder, on finding the sekrit lair of whoever and being approached by a strange robot-thing: "ooh, what is this, I don't" *is zapped unconscious*
Scully, in same situation: "oh HELL NO" BANG BANG BANG BANG
WoW RP stuff

WoW RP stuff
I decided to put my Alliance alts on WRA after all, so I rolled them and began having them send in-game mails to each other and my worgen rogue to establish connections, move gold around, and set one up to be the auction horse for the time being. AND THEY IMMEDIATELY STARTED RPING WITH EACH OTHER.
Worgen: Draenei is annoying, Void Elf is cute
Draenei: Worgen is shifty & untrustworthy, has big sister feels for Void Elf
Velf: Draenei is naive, Worgen is annoying & gross
