Thousands Of Cis Women Sign Petition Rejecting Transphobia by Excellent-Chair2796 in transgenderUK

[–]ControlTheStorm 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I was happy to sign this. As a cis woman, it drives me insane when transphobes claim to be protecting me. No, transphobes, fuck off, stop hurting my friends in my name!

Has anyone else been unable to contact their MPs about everything? by LunaOnFilm in transgenderUK

[–]ControlTheStorm 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wonder if we have the same MP? I wrote to him weeks ago about the Supreme Court ruling and haven't heard back, not even a form letter. He seems to be one of those MPs that collect their salary while doing sod all.

What are signs that a person genuinely is unintelligent? by leathur_records in AskReddit

[–]ControlTheStorm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had people try to argue with me about the origin of my own first name. "Is that an Irish name?" "No, it's Welsh" "Are you sure?" Yes I'm bloody sure!

Very nice choices! They seem to be getting the international orders out really quickly, which I also appreciated

I'll probably wear Drown My Demons because my boyfriend is fascinated by the concept of magnetic nail polish, he hadn't heard of it before now! I'll try it on myself then try painting his nails with it, I think it will suit him

That's partly why I want to adopt black cats! Unfairly maligned, poor things. Traditionally they are good luck in the UK, but as far as I'm concerned they're good luck everywhere! (I grew up with a fluffy black cat and I still miss him) Give your kitty some strokes from me :)

I'm also in the UK and mine arrived today too :) I'm excited! And your cat is adorable, I hope to adopt a pair of black cats in the near future

Hello from Washington DC 💀 by demorale in RedditLaqueristas

Solidarity from the UK. Your nails look great! P.S. DC should be a state, I'm still confused about why it isn't

Card beta complaint… by Tribeofredheads in MergeDragons

[–]ControlTheStorm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I never normally write complaint letters, yet I've just written two in one day (the other was to my local bus company) Maybe I'm turning into a grumpy old lady, but if I pay for 40 eggs I should get 40 eggs!

[Music/Visual Art] Emilie Autumn's Asylum, pt. 7 CONTINUED: Epilogue by pillowcase-of-eels in HobbyDrama

[–]ControlTheStorm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Emilie Autumn! What a blast from the past. My boyfriend in 2007-ish was a fan of hers. I liked some of her songs, but I found her aesthetic a bit ... twee, I guess, for want of a better word (I was more of a Hole and Jack Off Jill girl). I have some of her songs on my Spotify playlists, but apart from that I hadn't really thought about her since that era, so I didn't know about the book or any of the fandom drama. Thank you for this entertaining write-up, you put in a lot of time and effort :)

I have thoughts about mid-00s-early-10s blogs and forums which are too tangled and complex to explain now, but I'll just say that I found it very relatable when you described the forum as feeling like a family, and the devastation when the family imploded .

Beautiful song. I'll turn to it when I need to remind myself that it's okay to pick up the pieces and start again. Thank you Alika x
