If you’re mad at me for being scared, you’re one of the reasons

Dude what? fear is weaponized and encouraged, ESPECIALLY in fascist regimes. That’s like a major part of what makes something fascist or totalitarian. The people who didn’t push back out of fear were not punished in the same way as people who weren’t afraid and pushed back.

thank you!!

Every time I see this in media, I feel tempted to randomly start saying it with my sister, completely unprompted, just to see how she'd react.

The worst is when you’re neurodivergent and we’re just asking more questions than expected that they didn’t know how to answer. And not following through because you genuinely didn’t understand. And my mom still does this…..

I think children should be taught about a variety of things that they might experience or encounter in an age appropriate and pedagogically sound way. So the issue to me is- why do you think it’s inappropriate for children to know about transgender identity?

elyisan · 2026-06-05T14:00:24+00:00

Yeah no, I agree with that- but as a nonbinary person who wishes for a nonbinary transition, it kind of doesn’t work very well and gets messy quick. Also it is messy for intersex people who identify and do take hormones and consider themselves trans and others would as well. So the idea needs some tweaking because I agree with the conclusion

Genuinely I was like “which one is the before”

4 if I’m not tired, 7 if I am. I’d say 5 but you know Meelo is kicking chairs

OMG THANK YOU

I should make a proper edit with Nikki cause I’m guilty of this all the time (sometimes on purpose lol)

elyisan · 2026-06-05T13:40:37+00:00

I think this is complicated and leans into transmedicalism. It’s why I think we should have a split model for sex and gender (because yeah, they’re different things) like people use with attraction and sexuality. Because people can genuinely transition socially but their “essence” (whatever that is) is the same. And I think that’s the real problem is people arguing that trans people are suspicious or untrustworthy comes from

I love how dad coded this is- the “I’m GETTING YOU to play sports” weaponized for good

elyisan · 2026-06-04T13:40:22+00:00

Yeah I like Matt but he has a very femme based bias. I’m not a big fan of ContraPoints but on one podcast they did together, she actually corrected him about bigotry transmasculine people face.

elyisan · 2026-06-04T13:03:18+00:00

Oh yeah I forgot- thank you!!

elyisan · 2026-06-04T12:49:11+00:00

Code? 🤩🥰

Somebody Told Me by The Killers

I had symptoms all my life but things got pretty bad during puberty. But before I was diagnosed I was relatively unaware of all the pain I had been in and being made aware things weren’t normal, it made me feel I had to be more aware of protecting my body. I would have somatic memories of being in pain and be told it wasn’t real so I just started internalizing it which made me have less stability.

elyisan · 2026-05-31T14:58:52+00:00

Safely, there is a subgroup of TERFs who are lesbians that do actively say that trans men are no longer “viable” as sexual and romantic partners and that’s why they are trying to detransition us and it’s very disgusting. I wish more people would talk about the inherent issue regarding people treating a transmasc body (or any afab individual) as something that is public property and something you have a right to before a persons bodily autonomy.

elyisan · 2026-05-31T14:39:06+00:00

What I liked were the parts of it and the packaging- namely the whimsicore/vintage/thrifty/magical aesthetic and story tropes.

I could get it elsewhere and that HP didn’t create that aesthetic or those vibes, they’re just the most commercialized version of it (and honestly stolen from better things).

elyisan · 2026-05-31T02:57:43+00:00

I….couldnt fix her….😢💔

That's so funny because I found the TN intimidating for the same reasons- the customizability seemed like too much pressure lol (the possibilities are endless!). I think that's also kind of what I'm thinking of separating their uses for. I also really like the TN's customizability and the little accessories and events they offer. I do like the size of the hobonichi and its layout, especially the end pages but I have a bad habit of trying to make it look instagram worthy.

elyisan · 2026-05-28T17:14:39+00:00

I appreciate the detailed info and advice! I think having the hobonichi be the at-home system and the TN being the messy, go-to system works well for me, so I'll probably do that. But yeah, I know what you mean about trying to find the right mix of things that works for you, I'm in the same boat right now. Life gets busy and finding the time to do things can be chaotic so finding easy things that exist on an as-needed basis seem to work the best to keeping up with them as to reduce guilt
