I Think It Needs To Become Common Knowledge That "inability To Read Social Cues" Can Show Up As Overcompensating.

This is actually part 1 of 3, because I’ve lost control of my life.

idk man frequently i talk to trans men and mascs who basically tell me that they came out as queer or nonbinary years ago, but were terrified to come out as men or transition in a way that would mean they were perceived as male even though the dysphoria was crushing

specifically bc of rejection from their communities, from other queer people, other trans people, bc men are bad and awful

like. a fella told me earnestly he read this essay about how masculinity isn't inherently toxic from another trans man and im so glad it was positive for him and gave him the courage to transition, but it was horrifying to me that he should be made to feel so disgusted by his own gender that he needed that

esp bc once you're out as queer you're already rejected by mainstream society, so other queers are all you have - the prospect of being ousted and rejected from those spaces bc you become A Man is naturally terrifying

and its literally just rad fem rhetoric of men and masculinity = evil and bad that's infected queer spaces like a festering mould. ppl do it to cis gay and queer men as well, and also just to nonbinary ppl they perceive as cis men bc they don't like their language etc, and to trans men and mascs

ppl are sometimes like. surprised. when i don't apologise for being a man and assert that loving men is natural and beautiful, and reject the appeal of womanhood or women

as if that's not queer enough when like ??? hi???? my attraction to other men IS the queerness?

wait so you're telling me that the no-fly list is NOT public information even though it has THOUSANDS of names? and people arent notified when they get put on it??? im sorry what? thats so fucking ridiculous thats literally a government blacklist. do you guys know how bad that is. (and white libs wanna use it for gun control? yeah absolutely make it easier for the feds to racially profile and disarm poc, see how that goes).

EDIT: several people have mentioned that its. 1.4 million people. so uhm. what the fuck guys

“wow i can’t believe a trans cat girl hacked and leaked the no-fly list. the way we came about this information is so absurd, it’s funny” 🤝 “the actual information that was leaked is abhorrently racist, specifically towards middle eastern and south asian people. that is absolutely not funny and needs to be spoken about without the absurdity of the situation dominating the conversation”

I just want to say I have absolutely 0 sympathy whatsoever for anyone complaining about anything homeless people do. oh you saw human shit on the ground?? hmm maybe it's because THEY DONT HAVE A TOILET. oh you saw someone cleaning themselves in a public restroom? maybe because THEY DONT HAVE A FUCKING SHOWER. oh no a homeless person is living in a tent and you think it's ugly?? CRY ABOUT IT IN YOUR FUCKING HOUSE. oh my goodness homeless people sleeping on the ground and they're in your way!!!! yeah THEY DONT HAVE A BED

if seeing homeless people bothers you that much then good news! you have some choices! 1) let them all live with you in your house! 2) start pressuring your local government to stop criminalizing the homeless and start giving them financial and medical assistance! 3) shut the fuck up and die!

idk what transmasc needs to hear this but being a man is not smth you have to apologize or make up for. it's just not. you don't need absolution for being a man. you don't need to beg on your knees for forgiveness for "shunning" the "gift" of being a woman. you aren't "unfortunately adding one more guy to the world". your manhood is a gift. it adds so much richness to the world. do not let anyone make you think you need to spend your life suffering in purgatory for the crime of transitioning. you don't need to throw yourself to the floor and repent and suffer because of other people's discomfort with who you are.

My favorite thing about Will Byers is that he is sensitive and traumatized, but he's also snarky and sarcastic. He's not afraid to cry, and he puts everyone's happiness above his, but he will call you out if he doesn't agree with something you say. He will freak out and panic in a violent scenario (like almost everyone else does), but when he needs to, he can pick up a gun and defend himself. He has been called many names and slurs by classmates and his own father, but he is able to accept himself for who he is, and he doesn't let his feelings for Mike get in the way of their friendship. He stays quiet in public, but he will rant in private. He was abused and bullied, but he treats everyone with the utmost kindness and respect. He has given up on ever finding love for himself, but he's honestly somehow the most emotionally mature member of the party, and he actually gives really good advice despite never having been in a relationship.

Will Byers is character with many layers, and too many people reduce him to a sensitive boy who cries all the time, or to a gay kid who hates himself and is in love with his best friend, when there is so much more to his character than that.

Hey so we are still pretty screwed (updated post)

So the situation here is pretty bad and im making a new post partly cause the other has lost traction and because it's out-dated.

Hi i'm Vivi and I am pretty badly disabled. I have formal diagnosis for my disability finally after several years of trying to get doctors to take me seriously.

I am completely unable to work traditional jobs. I stream on twitch but that provides next to no income and I am currently trying to get on social security disability benefits but that is a long and difficult process that very well may never come to fruition.

I am also in a lot of debt, $6,200 of debt to be exact. If I can get this debt paid off I have a real chance of living a mostly comfy life despite the fact that im unable to work.

I've exhausted every other avenue I have for getting help which is why i'm begging here. I hate that I am having to do this and I can't just go out and do everything myself like i could when I was still able to function in society.

I am becoming more and more desperate with each passing day. I will post all of my various payment links below if anyone is able to donate it is greatly appreciated as I really can't do this on my own anymore.

If you DM me maybe we can work out something I can do for you in exchange for assistance. I'm no artist but, i have an ok camera if nothing else. I'd do just about anything for some help at this point.

I'm trying to be a lot calmer making this post than the old one but I do need to stress that the situation is getting worse every day with interest and the stress it's putting on me.

If you can help or even just share this so maybe someone who can will see it my links are:
