anyway that’s why these events are important

Someone was a stupid asshole to me on Reddit and then someone else took their side so that's got me a little depressed this morning. Reminds me of why I should not try to help anyone, even if they are asking for help.

My favorite person is moving away forever at the end of this month. I am not okay about it. I probably won't ever leave the house when he's not here anymore.

And now I'm apparently in perimenopause which I never even fucking heard of until my genitals disappeared and I started going insane and getting fat for no reason?? Hormones have a huge effect on everything, but you can't just fucking blame women for the way God made them or whatever. Fucking hell

I was raised as a boy and then profoundly shamed and abandoned when I started puberty so I've put a hell of a lot of thought into this shit. I'm just a terrible writer lol

DAE think blaming hormones (particularly women's hormones) is just misogynistic and also part of the anti-trans crusade?

What if we had a completely different way of living on the earth that sought to assure physical and mental health of every being? Stop blaming [anyone but cishet white men]

How your hormones might be controlling your mind

Hormones play a vital part in keeping our bodies working properly. But they can also have a powerful – and sometimes negative – effect on our mood and mental health.

Seems misogynistic to me, to blame female hormones. It's misogyny all the way down.

Old news (2019):

Horrified when I learned this was happening (teaching kids how NOT to read). Came up in convo the other day. Sickening!!

How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers

For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...
