thinking back to when I went to a game development summer camp when I was like 14ish... not only did my team make the best game (an Advance Wars-themed Metal Slug clone) but also I wrote a fork bomb in the GameMaker scripting language that restarted on boot and was really hard to delete... and created a bunch of dialog boxes mocking the user while playing the Final Fantasy 3 boss music lol

as opposed to the popular strategy, "scream at her and try to ruin her life" :/

so I have this cool technique that I use when I see a trans gal having a bad mental health day and posting stuff that's a little iffy or bizarre.

it's called "ignore it and move on". fuckin' try it sometime, it works wonderfully.

I'm not joking, btw. DM me if you wanna know more about my ideas on this. I'm thinking it would be better to discuss the particulars through a more secure medium.

I'm so tired of how miserably transfems get treated by everyone, everywhere. I wanna start some kind of tr*nny mafia or something where we look out for the girls and back each other up (explicitly making sure that we address the needs of TWOC and disabled trans women, since those groups are sometimes neglected) all the time, everywhere, by any means necessary. I want people to be scared to fuck with us, I want us to have food and housing, I want us to have healthcare - we *fucking* protect us!

It's actively disgusting how many excuses people will just make the fuck up to justify hate mobbing a trans girl they don't like

Mentally ill?	Yep.
Weird and spooky?	Totally.
Cool as fuck?	You betcha!
