The Internet thinks a lot of things are parody and rarely is right. This is parody. It creates a new work that requires knowledge of the original to understand it. This use is transformative.

As a person who has committed the actual Ozymandias to memory, I hope I never see this again.

I am the very model of an ancient trunkless leg of stone,
My shattered visage lies half buried with a sandy sneering frown,
The sculptor carved my arrogance upon these broken lifeless things,
My name is Ozymandias, the self-describèd King of Kings!

ok but to be honest if someone actually transitioned purely cause they felt like it was a trend they wanted to get in on that would be cool as hell? like yeah, use that bodily autonomy, fuck around because you feel like it

not so much anymore but for Reasons that amount to “my experience doesn’t match a lot of what people commonly share” my treacherous brain liked to play “what if you’re not *really* trans” games and I’d make it kinda shut up on the same reasoning

still feels weird tho.

Chel @mynnna.bsky.social · 15h

it’s fucking weird how I’ve been like an advice giver/counselor to a bunch of other trans folks it’s like “I’ve been out a year how am i really an elder”

(answer is it’s always been more life experience stuff that is only tangentially trans related and i have a lot more life experience than them)

my hottest 40k take is that the "waaaa there shouldn't be female space marines!!!11!!!" crowd is misguided, there shouldn't be "male" space marines either. once you undergo the surgeries and genetic altering to make an astartes, whatever you were, your sex and gender is now Space Marine

i def remember not reading closely enough to realize what it actually said and only noticing when someone got really mad at you about it in your replies bc she hadn’t read it closely either

this was back on twitter i think, making it even funnier bc it means it was when i still thought i was cis

Chel @mynnna.bsky.social · 1d

the latter seems too much to hope for bc I’m sure that happens a lot

i lowkey was looking at trying like a few months ago and then i counted calories and estimated my typical daily burn given my work and promptly gave up bc the estimate was i’m at like a 1000cal deficit

probably that overestimates my physical activity but w/e fuck it

A woman leans against the door frame in a mirror selfie, hip cocked out, free hand looped in her pocket, head cocked to the side with a smile on her face. She’s got short hair that needs its dye job redone, glasses, and is wearing a purple undershirt with a ribbed texture, black jeans, and an unbuttoned flannel shirt checkerboarded with white and several shades of purple over it all.

Y'all, as a kid who grew up food-insecure, plz don't do this. There is nothing more demoralizing as a little kid than being reminded of your family's poverty. We looked forward to Halloween bc it was the 1 chance to be like every other kid and get access to treats the food banks never gave out.

I don't know what's worse, the fact that I'm surprised by this headline or the fact that I probably shouldn't be:

queer discourse that matters:

1) how do we foster a culture of mutual respect and compassion where we can live the lives we want in the way we want

2) how can we get meds/HRT/etc into the hands of people who want them

queer discourse that doesn't matter:

1) whatever y'all are arguing about today

I think something cis people might not understand about people like Gavin Newsom who publicly espouse transphobia, is that 99% of the time they're only saying the stuff they think other people will find palatable, and their true beliefs are muuuch worse.
