I hate sports and I want sports to be destroyed.
"Some people like sports!"
I hate those people and I hate what they like. Those sports-people.
"Some sports-people are nice!"
Fuckin fite me. I win, no more sports.
"And if they win?"
*sinks into simmering hate-filled cauldron muttering about sports*

Shield up, visor down, hooves kicking up dirt as you ride full tilt toward your foe. Crash! Smash! You hold fast against the full force of the jousting knight.

"Ow!" cries your opponent, as a small red rivulet runs from his couter. First blood! Once again, you brandish your lancet, victorious.
You don't bring a knife to a gun fight but nobody expects a scalpel

"As someone working in law, it’s heresy to say this, and it might even kill my chances of a career... But as a trans person, and someone fighting for the rights of my community, I refuse to remain silent. To me it just seems obvious: a heavily prejudiced society produces prejudiced institutions."
It’s no surprise that only 31% of trans people trust a legal system built to enforce prejudice, says Jess O’Thomson.

Honestly I felt left high & dry when I got diagnosed. I was given a couple of photocopies and well-wishes and left to figure it out. Didn't know where to look or how to look for it, still don't. It probably doesn't suck less now.

*Sigh*
Autism question! Does anyone have any good links/resources for, like, what to *do* when you're diagnosed autistic? How to examine your thinking/beliefs, work out what masking is, learn self compassion etc etc? Broad question, but I really should do something with this knew self knowledge.

I like watching youtube videos when I should be getting out of bed on a Sunday afternoon. Pretty normal, no?*

Something just cracked in my brain when I realised, 10 minutes in, that I haven't decided whether I hate this youtuber yet. I am a worse person for this thought. I regret my thoughts.

If you're a transfemme and you're saying shit like 'Why do other transfemmes dress like shit, get some actual outfits' you're a fucking asshole.

Here's a post from 2 years ago about my favourite subject: me.

I am reposting this out of cynical pride, not - I must emphasise - because I sat with this shit boiling my coconut for decades and it's still the best exploration I could manage to express in words.

The planet is dying. I know the fight against fascism feels so acute, but there will be nothing left to fight for if we don't bring these longer term challenges. Please - will you support our climate litigation?
We’re working with @glanlaw.bsky.social and our claimants SOS UK, @tippingpointuk.bsky.social and Save Hemsby Coastline to challenge the UK government.

Starmer’s climate framework is so full of holes that it breaches our right to family life. Support our challenge here:

Make Keir Starmer step up on climate
The government is failing to tackle global heating – so we’re forcing it to take action

Today is Intersex Day of Solidarity and Remembrance.

It's an opportunity to highlight the continued struggles faced by intersex people globally, from unnecessary medical intervention or stigma.

We all deserve to be treated with dignity, and live a life free from discrimination.

The limited monetisation issue is real for basically any channel that talks about any serious issue. Ember is amongst the best to ever do it. Shit like this just isn't fair.
it's been hit with limited monetization, meaning i won't make much money off this one.

i don't know the reason, i requested a review & they stood by the decision.

i was only able to release 3 videos this year & the last was a flop.

so if you were thinking of joining my Patreon or Members..

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Hi, my name is Kira and I am a right cunt. I have barely slept and will be ratty as fuck all day. I might get snippy at someone who interrupts my wage-grinding flow state, and that person might get me into trouble. These are inevitabilities, because of my essential nature as a right cunt.

Bras are a scam made up by the top brass to make northerners mispronounce 'brass'.
“biological sex” is an invention of the gender reveal party supplies industry
"biological sex" is a scam made up by companies who manufacture signs for toilet doors.
