worst forest/trees problem in generations is that a canto is A SECTION OF A LONG POEM. THAT'S IT. YOU DIDN'T WRITE A CANTO BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT THE WORD LOOKED COOL ON YOUR MEMOIR. CANTOS ARE POEMS. THAT LANGUAGE IS DYNAMIC DOES NOT MAKE YOUR SLAMBOOK A CANTO AMERICAN OR OTHERWISE

real real real sick of seeing "oh i'm tired of tdor, oh we should have a more positive holiday." i am tired of trans people dying violently and unmourned. it's not the same.

if you, like me, feel that trans masculinity in your own case is not growing up a girl and wanting to be a man but being always already a boy then a man who has a troubled relationship with sexed anatomy, may i recommend dramas w eunuchs in them as 'representation.'

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didn’t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because they’re transphobes and they will lose for it
