My TikTok account was banned for no given reason
It’s the only place I as myself have ever been able to build a platform of any size. It wasn’t even big! But I had started making magic content there and I had all my early transition videos there and…
…and I’m just so tired of having to start over.
The problem is I am dictating specifically so I can wear my braces to help with healing, and because of that I have to move my arms in an odd way every time I touch the keyboard which is starting to put strain on my elbows now so it’s cleaning a cascade effect of making new problems while barely helping with the old.
And there’s no need for this.
I finally tweak things in Microsoft office enough that it seems to be working within acceptable parameters, but I shouldn’t have had to spend an hour troubleshooting when this is clearly inferior to having the default be allowing us to swear like adults and not capitalizing every time someone pauses to breathe in the middle of a sentence and then giving them the little blue squiggly line to let them know it needs to be fixed.
As someone who needs dictation for accessibility reasons, I think the developers of every single existing dictation option should have their hands cuffed behind their back and forced to dictate an entire book.
Every single time their fucking software sensors a swear or capitalizes a word in the middle of the goddamn sentence an automatic machine hits them in the hands with a hammer.
Seriously there are searches about this being an ongoing issue for most programs because for some reason some fuckhead decided that a pause means the next word should be capitalized, which means every time I pause to think I am going to need to use my hands - which are in pain - to fix the issue.
And because I’m in pain by the time I’m done fixing it I have lost my train of thought.
You can find people asking for help with this going back years.
Fuck whoever made this choice, fuck whoever refuses to fix it, and fucking hell accessibility needs to be a higher priority.

Also I wore a skirt in public today, and got a lot of compliments on it. And I felt beautiful, which is rare for me.
Girls, just live your best lives. Don’t be afraid to wear the dress. Or the skirt. Or the short shorts. It’s YOUR life, no one else’s.
The time’s gonna pass. Believe me, it’s not worth the regret. My egg cracked four and a half years ago and it took me three years to start transition and until six months ago to work up the courage to come out. I wish I could have even those three and a half years back.
Don’t wait. Live for today. It’s all you’re guaranteed.
I just found out that the woman who groomed me died two years ago. She had gone anti vax and died of COVID. Apparently, it was painful.
Rot in hell you fucking monster.
