fiction is truly a window to the realities of the world
“So, what’s your new name?” Vera asked. “Please don’t be another Luna…” “Hey!” three girls in separate parts of the room cried out indignantly as one.

oh so *that's* the trans lesbian dating app
from xkcd 624: a stick figure is sitting at a computer, with an ad on it reading "try the new github for lesbians!" they respond "ok, wait, what?"

but what if we h*ld h*nds 😳😱
in a manga panel, a girl with long, straight black hair says "...can we... ...hold hands?" the girl across from here, a shorter blond-haired girl, thinks to herself "hands!? no way, no way! no waaay!!!"

i am officially declaring this a disaster lesbian zone 🫢
more manga. on the rightmost panel we can see the long blond-haired girl from earlier peeking her head in through a door as a voice out of frame says "come on in!" in the next frame a middle-aged lady with longer, wavy brown hair who's wearing a black top that accentuates her curves (and, let's be honest, her breasts) says "welcome! ♡" "good of you to come! ♡ i've been waiting! ♡" while our protagonist thinks to herself "m-mommy!?!?!?!?"

me, downloading the dating app app again thinking maybe *this* time it will work and i'll finally become the uhaul lesbian of my dreams
in manga art, a college-aged girl with long blond hair is walking around an orientation fair. she's thinking to herself "maybe i'll just bump into someone and be like "ah...! ♡"" and then in another thought bubble "or someone will fall from the heavens and be like, "ah...! ♡". that could totally happen...!"

stop me if you've heard this one before
As I left the store and started to walk the rest of the way home, I would've sworn I heard the shopkeeper shouting ‘DARLING, WE'VE GOT ANOTHER ONE.’ Another what, I couldn't even begin to guess.

well if i can't get myself to write stuff then maybe i should read stuff

like some of the queer books i bought in a fit of whimsy two years ago and never got around to (a grave error for which i beg forgiveness)

trans literary passages that go hard, volume [i've lost count]

from zinnabelle's That's How The Light Gets In
"The boots add four inches. Which is only fair, because the estrogen took three away." Better to bring up the transgender thing immediately rather than beat around the bush. She laughs, then pauses. "Wait, really?" "Well, only two were from my height," she says, then before Claire can respond to her implication, adds: "Your dress is amazing, by the way."

small thing but i'm being very deliberate with my choice of earrings today.

no matter how many of us they cut down, thousands, *millions* of us will keep on blooming.

we have always been here. and we will outlast those who hate us so much.

way too many dems seem to have an intense longing for the 90s or worse right now
the skinner "am i out of touch?" meme with a Democratic donkey overlaid over Skinner's head, and the bottom panel reading "No, it's the tr*****s who are wrong."

and now for our next edition of "book passages that make both pre-transtion me and even "right now" me feel very seen"

(yes it hits right in the bones but i need to be called out)
a passage from Kara Buchanan's Magica Riot: I’d try to stay in the back of the crowd, preferably off to the side and deep in the shadows. I’d stand with my shoulders hunched, my head down, and my hands in my pockets, doing my best to not be noticed. Basically, I was terrified of taking up space. It felt bad having a bunch of people looking at the version of me I was stuck with, because I doubted I’d ever muster up the courage to change it

thank you to "falling over" by QuietValerie for making me feel heard
An excerpt from Falling Over by QuietValerie: “Girls are hard too, but in different ways,” Brook explained, having missed Rosie's reaction. “With girls… god, with girls you gotta try so fucking hard just to get their attention sometimes, and the ones that make you chase and chase are just exhausting. Then, as a bisexual, you have to deal with all these unicorn hunters — couples looking for a threesome or whatever — like, dude, I'm looking for girls right now, I'm not gonna bang your crusty-ass boyfriend, especially when you're barely into it. Go to couple's therapy— jesus…”

in front of a background of blue squares, a Black woman wearing a yellow shirt and a name tag reading "Laurie" facepalms. underneath her, a computer generated line from a Scrabble board is showing 8 spaces -- the second and fourth are blue, and the eighth is pink. Only the fifth, sixth, and seventh slots have letters filled in -- "TIT"
