back in middle school, my friend stopped standing for the pledge. she was called outside by the teacher and she told me that she was told off by her for it (unsurprisingly because of the person the teacher was)

soon enough, most of us stopped standing for it after realizing it was an option

when i entered high school (in 2021 due to covid), no one stood for the pledge.

my school was majority hispanic, black, and asian with like 4 white people.

we knew this country didnt care about us. we werent going to pledge for a country that hated us

dear usamerican high schoolers looking for a way to resist fascism: sit through the pledge of allegiance.

no getting up. no looking at the flag.

everyone will be looking at you. you'll be sweating like a fucking hippopotamus. your teacher will sternly tell you to get up. you'll feel stupid and that maybe its not worth it because you're just a kid in a classroom. but I'm here to remind you that there are no real life consequences to detention. there are however real life consequences to resisting a thoughtless performance of nationalism.

I’ve seen it too many times. It’s incredibly annoying now so I can’t just say nothing.

When someone calls out transandrophobia, anti-transmasculinity, whatever you’re inclined to call it, and the person who did it is a trans man or transmasc themselves? I need you to understand how deeply irrelevant that is.

Sometimes what you said was just harmful no matter who you are while saying it. Being part of the group being harmed doesn’t tell me that what you said was okay. It tells me you’ll throw yourself and the rest of your own community under the bus for a scrap of approval from the people who want you and everyone like you to get hit by a bus. I don’t know why you expect me not to either be more pissed off or just start to pity you.

“But I’m transmasc” cool so am I, now can we go back to talking about how fucked up it is for you to say what you just said?

its like they keep forgetting the fact that its possible for us to get pregnant. like i know this is a hard topic for many trans men as it causes dysphoria but its also something that needs to be discussed.

they keep forgetting that the laws that are put in place about abortion rights, reproductive care, etc also affects trans men but they never fucking mention it probably because they dont fucking care to.

if i were living in the a different state, one that has made abortions illegal, and i were to be attacked as a trans man, my rights to abortion would be the exact same as a cisgender woman. we are equally in danger.

because fun fact not all trans men get rid of their eggs. not all trans men want to get that surgery. some trans men actually WANT kids that are made using their eggs. IM one of them. why as a trans man is it expected of me to have that surgery? why do people assume that i want to? why are we never mentioned when it comes to healthcare the same way others are? why are they even BEING gendered? if it were like something someone with a certain sex organ should have then *sure, whatever, but that’s not whats happening here.

nothing should be specified to a gender as people who ARENT WOMEN can get pregnant and do not have access to abortions. people who ARENT MEN can get other people pregnant. lets go back to using gender neutral terms.

*(i also think its weird to have classes based on sex organs alone i personally think that everyone should learn about each organ and how to properly protect yourself and your loved one no matter what organ you have)

why are we always forgotten? excluded? especially when it comes to topics about protecting ourselves?

Holy fuck? That’s actually insane what.

had contractors come by and forgot i was wearing this shirt

everyone should watch this video. just learned something new. the usa is still genociding indigenous people and they won't stop.

somewhat nsft,

but YALL IM ALREADY HAVING BOTTOM GROWTH OMG

some of yall should try transgenderism

If you're going to a protest, wear a mask, not makeup. Makeup designed to confuse AI can still get you recognized by law enforcement, and Juggalo makeup won't be helpful as Juggalo's are recognized as a gang by the FBI. Stay safe. Wear full face masks, hide piercings and tattoos or any other distinguishing features.

ever since i came out/realizing i was trans, i started to hate my room decor so im changing it from pastel danish (base white w pops of pastel colors) to gothic and its SO hard when your room walls are white and when youre also poor because college is so stressful so you had to cut your hours 💔
