...my brain hurts watching these 20smthngs on The Ultimatum. it's utterly horrific to me that our society leads ppl to put themselves & others into these completely unnecessary, lose-lose emotional scenarios where ppl literally hinge their lives or happiness on marriage/family--

and they're only fkin 20smthgs like- JUST LIVE YOUR LIFE goddamn. fkn societal narratives over bio clocks ticking, timelines for relationship or homeowner status- to the point such pressures get played out by kids w dolls & adults go on shows torturing themselves over it URGGHH..

...soo, i watched the film "Straight Up" on Netflix today and while i 100% recommend watching it, i also feel like... i need to rewatch it? it's refreshing to see a film that makes me want to rewatch it immediately after having watched it for any number of reasons tbh.

one of the worst things about having a parent who thinks they're "doing the best they can" at being "accepting" and doing a "you at it" is that it's that much harder to call them out on their passive aggressiveness. 😑

📢 white people (and especially-unfortunate others) don't get to decide for the rest of us when "the playing field is level" because "race isn't a factor anymore".

Pride is always exhausting, but it's good to be reminded that the world isn't quite as lonely as it often feels. thanks again @SeattleAcesAros ! #acepride #seattlepride #HappyPride – at Seattle, WA

Replying to @netflix
@Netflix made their #ultimatum show simultaneously more painful yet irresistible to watch by making a #queer addition. Ugh. Just what I needed, another social experiment turned tool to fuel my already profound cynicism and apathy. #ultimatumqueerlove

Re: @Target having to pull certain #Pride merch from its stores, cant fault Target for taking such actions to protect its employees from threats made by obnoxious ppl, but the fact that ppl whod threaten employees over merch even exist has me smdh #LGBTQIA youtu.be/AvfuoXga77Q

✒️ "as someone who has always been and will always be hypervisible because of their race, it baffles me when people advocate for visibility as if visibility is what we all want; as if visibility is even a means to getting what we all want..." #TDOV2023 queerascat.com/2017/09/for-t…
...will always feel somekindaway about TDoV... 🙄😮‍💨💦

"this upholding of visibility as smthg important for all of us to fight for seems grossly negligent of the fact that some of us are alrdy more visible than others & that that very visibility is part of what's gotten us bullied, turned away from resources, pulled over... & worse."

everything's been great so far. got asked if i preferred the name on my paperwork, got my pronouns verbally confirmed and one of the nurses even has a pronoun pin on, and i just got my labrets & everything else (switched from metal to glass) approved to stay in by the ana! 🥹💦🙏🏿
