@keith it was terrifying, but i knew they had zero legal standing (and that i’m privileged enough to not be at immediate risk of police violence). gotta take every opportunity

look im just the admin here i dont make the rules
@breakfastgolem i guess it’s basically impossible to switch instances without losing a few connections here or there
@shoofle thank you 😇 i had their attention so i figured why not make the most of it
i picked up on their motives instantly and spent the entire exchange talking about how you can’t necessarily take a parent’s word about a kid’s pronouns. i talked about how if kids’ safety is a priority then we (as a society) should be working towards fostering acceptance so kids feel safe in their own homes
i don’t know if i got through to them. they were both half a head taller and built like trucks, but i stared burning righteousness into their eyes and they slunk away like scolded toddlers
sometimes i think about when the cops came to my door looking for a missing person, and it was extremely obvious the way they were misgendering the person they were looking for a trans kid on behalf of the transphobic family the kid had run away from
i don’t have proof that they targeted my apartment for search bc i was basically the only overtly trans person in the whole town. all i know is i’d never seen the kid anywhere before, and they didn’t invite themselves into my neighbors’ houses
my social media intern quit to go to grad school* so if my online presence seems off lately, apologies i never learned how to use this app

oh your dom uses a safeword? mine uses 2fa
in other countries do people say ‘aubergine emoji’ or do they still say ‘eggplant emoji’??
i just think ‘aubergine emoji’ would be a good drag name
@purple that makes sense, thank you again for all the insights!
@flowerenby oh thank you. overall i’ve had pretty good luck with my rig. it’s been running well for so long i practically took it for granted, haha
