rest in power miss major. this is what it means to constantly be negotiating your existence!

The Transfeminine Review @thetransfemininereview.com · 15h

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔

One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

I was genuinely astounded when I was shown this project. Some dedicated fans recreated the whole of Sewer Rave as a map in Minecraft. www.planetminecraft.com/project/sewe...

Congrats to @blanksword.bsky.social for passing the funding goal. I made a 3D Blank to celebrate

3D Blank from the game Blanksword, standing on a disk in a void. He is holding a sword. There's a tired, concerned look on his face.

same guys who are "concerned!!!! about women's sports" when it means excluding and isolating trans girls from sport lol. misogyny all the way down. for so many men, women's sports is something inherently lesser and another stage for objectification and comedy with female athletes as the punchline

Some sports gamblers are trying to predict WNBA players’ performance—and the outcomes of games—based on the athletes’ periods. One betting content creator has dubbed it “blood money." www.wired.com/story/men-ar...
