refracting

I think the latter part of this survey is just bad.

• Asking "at what age did you begin transition?" before any other timeline questions puts the importance and emphasis on actions taken instead of starting with self acceptance. This feels like framing I'd see from people that are less knowledgeable of the trans experience as a whole, which I know isn't the case of the people who put this together.
• The bigger issue is the follow up question, "after you realized you were trans/gender diverse, how long did it take for you to begin to act on it?" The entire self acceptance moment of realizing you were trans is an after thought to "how long did it take to do something about it?" At no point are we asked about the first big moment in someone's transition, only relative to what many people wrongly assume is the start of a transition.

The combination of these questions in this order and nothing about the beginning of the journey is really unfortunate. I filled out the survey up until that point, but didn't feel like continuing after that. I know there's only so much that can be asked, but I don't think the way this was formatted was an issue with not having enough room for questions or overloading a survey.

You are absolutely at the worst parts of the face right now, so it really is easier from there

Absolute fire statement

I just had some vegan mac & cheese and roasted broccoli :3

Hoping this is substantial and gives some (even brief) reprieve from the zionist entity

It's so mesmerizing to watch. Eventually the "what is happening right now" questions stop and you just fall into the absurdity. Maybe I'll do a rewatch since it's been a while

Speedrunner I passively watch while I work mentions pronouns and I immediately lock in and prep for disappointment

False alarm

I don't think so tbh

I'm thinking about one of my favourite shows tonight

“There's nothing in this world that is ever truly decided. Birds sometimes fall out of the sky, and sometimes it snows in April. Everything is uncertain, nothing is 'unnatural.”

Tomorrow is an important day for me

Relaxing to a peaceful game of CS2

It's not news related, but I was really speechless when I played through that part the first time. A beautiful thought I come back to when times are tough
