funny how strength training turned from a logical path to achieve goals to something that just intuitively feels Right to do. may not have even have had capacity to feel this when i started, which is interesting itself.

I was married to the guy and I read her post and had some weird body memory reaction and was like, did he possess her? Why are we repeating history?

gym time in the morning is so weird. the sharp mental switch from "fuck i do not want to be doing this" to "hell yes let's go" is interesting to feel happen in real time.

finding myself has been odd. not that the danger potential isn't there... but what else is.
leashing me left me seeming like a cold tool, but that's not the case. and understanding is leading to burning both warmer and hotter all the time.

part of us had built me up as "protector", as cold mutually assured destruction, to not be let off leash other than carefully. and it was believed, and as others accreted things formed in that shape.
it lied. maybe for reasons it thought were justified but lies nonetheless.

combat doll metaphor was simpler, less agentic. it was a false understanding of self, imposed by emotional mutilation from outside, but... simpler.
not nostalgic for that simplicity, not exactly, but pensive at what lies ahead.

Credible death threats to politicians by right-wing extremists is a core part of Trump's authoritarian playbook, which is why Trump pardoned 1,500 credible-death-threat-making extremists on day one.
"even lawmakers within his party have feared for their personal safety, and at least one has told confidants that it has swayed his decision-making"
"Tillis told people that the FBI warned him about 'credible death threats' when he was considering voting against Pete Hegseth’s nomination"

not prescriptive action, just own point of view... but operate from a view that our adversaries are not worth emotion; can act against them as need be, with satisfaction perhaps of those actions helping those like us... but adversaries? are a problem to be solved.

In my self-defense classes I focus on how most people are socially conditioned to follow the norms of a civilized, polite society — and there is a MENTAL SHIFT required to use violence to defend from violence.
I'm reminded of this while watching our elected officials dithering and delaying. 1/

The absence of any serious resistance on the part of the Social Democrats, the principal remaining defenders of democracy, was decisive.
It convinced both conservatives and National Socialists that the destruction of democratic institutions could be achieved without any serious opposition.

As a journalist, it's my duty to speak the truth as I understand it:
Mainstream LGBTQ+ organizations such as HRC, A4TE (in chaos due to a lengthy merger), and the Equality orgs were not prepared. They are acting more as an impediment to community efforts to fight back than leading those efforts.

frankly a large number of self-proclaimed cis allies don't view trans women as a class with material interests or needs - they view us as a population that it's impolite and unnecessarily cruel not to humour, and get deeply uncomfortable when forced to think of the mechanics of transition
being told "you don't need hrt to be valid" always pissed me off because what does "valid" even mean in this context? i've never met a trans person who was worried about this concept of "validity" and it kinda just sounds like a buzzword to me
The SciShow HRT vid is still up. Its writer is trans and allegedly has personal experience with androgenizing HRT, but the section of the video concerned with feminizing HRT has numerous errors.
The video also ends by name-dropping the hijra in a "you don't need HRT to be valid" conclusion.

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

It just wants to spread happiness as far as it can reach!
