🎢 I need a himbo
I'm holding out for a himbo till the end of the night
He's gotta be cute, and he's gotta be buff
And he's gotta be dumber than shite. 🎢
Gonna be shifting over to bluesky slowly I think. Too much transphobia on the birdsite, not enough cat memes on mastodon. So far, Bluesky seems a much easier space to navigate with more diverse content. Hope to see you of you over there!
@sentimentaldom this week was my first week at my new job. It's really great to be part of a team where my expertise and lived experience are seen as a valuable asset, and I'm excited to do good work! It feels like the adversity I've faced has led me to this precise point, so it's very rewarding on a personal level as well as career-wise. 😁

Me, on a day where I have a Big Life Thing: I sure miss wearing a daily collar, and the reminder of security and strength that came with that.

My horoscope: SLAUGHTER NOSTALGIA

Normalize telling your friends you love them. Tell them a lot. Make it weird.

@aphyr big agree with all of this! I'd also add that even in our niche queer communities, we still run the risk of replicating the oppressive power structures of wider society (racism, transphobia, misogyny etc.) unless we take a proactive stance on challenging those things both within ourselves and in our spaces. This is something I'm trying to be more conscious of.

This took me a while to figure out and I'm still not sure how to put it into words, but it's been on my mind a lot the last few years:

"Community" isn't a label you adopt or a party you show up to. It's what you bring to the table.

If you want to feel connected when you walk into the bar, you have to introduce yourself to people and make conversation. If you want to play, you have to approach and ask for what you want. If you want a certain kind of event, you gotta organize, donate, volunteer.

@HisNameIsOx not LGB Alliance related, but I did recently read thus article from a former GC about how she was able to see the cult mentality for what it was, recognising what she has in common with trans women.
