katt, migrating 🌟 🌈 @starkatt@awoo.space

ee just caught myself in the mirror and had one of those "hey, it's a girl!" moments. Even six years in that's still really nice.

(this test isn't mine. It was relayed to me by a partner, after I implicitly asked to be comforted at a really inopportune time)

Actionably useful test: if you say something and the only possible responses are to comfort you or sound like a gigantic asshole, you're asking for emotional labor.

It's something I for one need to be a lot more conscious of, especially with the people closest to me.

(this is not a subtoot of anyone or anything, promise)

(My current thinking is "ideally no, but probably in actual practice yes", but I ask because I'm open to hearing more thoughts :) )

One of the reasons I advocate for socialist reform over revolution (currently, anyway) is that power vacuums of revolution make it really, really easy for the most authoritarian person or party in the room to seize control.

Dammit just had a moment of pure Seattle Coffee Wanker: had the thought "I should learn how to make lattes so when they come out weird at a coffeeshop I know what went wrong."

Wow, me. :<

(sidebar: am I the only one who finds it weird how many shops do both piercing and tattoo? Like, those are different skillsets and I'd rather have someone specialized in one or the other?)

(want to get something done on my hip, which will probably require them to see me in my underwear, and... yeah)

Reminder: This wonderful and glorious post, "The Only Poly People You'll Ever Date".

Tag urself I'm a blend of manic poly dream girlfriend, relationship and actual anarchist, and pansexual trans girl.

I wish there was a good way to demo headphones w/ my own music, so I could get a sense if a given pair is actually Worth It before dropping the dollars.

Help I listened to some music on the headphones my partner uses for DJing and now I want to spend way too many dollars getting my own nice set.

@mawr hey I really dig the glitchification of your avatar here :)

Whoops, accidentally flung a sock behind the washing machine and now I'm pretty sure I'll never see it again.

I think I'm gonna mask up when going to Trans March this year.

I want the march to be a show of power, and masking is generally read as an implicit threat of disruptive action.
