Sorry But Being Autistic And "not Understanding Conflicting Labels" Is NOT An Excuse To Put Queer Labels

The last couple days have been, rough to say the least. For me and many others across the nation.

As an American I would lying if I said I wasn't slightly terrified right now. I just watched the president of my country get up on national tv and declare that I do not exist ("male and female are the only recognized genders") and his side hoe do a full on nazi salute, among other horrendous and hate-fueled statements.

Im lucky enough to live in Washington state, where the governor has openly stated he will fight to defend my rights as a queer person and someone capable of becoming pregnant. But there isn't much that can be done about civilian actions. I think there's a bit of a misconception about Washington throughout a lot of the nation, that most of the people living there are progressive and blue, but that isn't entirely the case. Outside of Seattle and surrounding cities like Tacoma or Olympia there's a lot of rural or partially rural towns that predominantly lean Republican. If it wasn't for Seattle, Washington would likely be a red state. Not to dox myself, but I do not live in Seattle or particularly close to it. There are queer resource and nonprofit organizations where I live, as well as for other marginalized groups, but they've had a history of being vandalized or attacked and I fear that's only going to get worse in the coming weeks/months/years.

I am a pretty visibly queer person, from the way I dress, my hair, my body language. Ive never been very good at blending in even when I wanted to. If someone was looking for a queer individual to target I wouldn't be the worst option out there. I am not going back into the closet, I refuse to hide or suppress myself, trying to in the past has never worked and has only made me horribly unhappy. I am a lesbian, I am transgender, I have a uterus, I am alterhuman, and I am proud. I am going to continue baring my teeth, continue seeking gender affirming care, continue being part of my community. But it isn't going to be without fear. There's been a lot of writing on the walls lately that I don't like the look of and it's scary to think of what may happen going forward.

But I do know how important it is that we find ways to stick together now more than ever. America is speeding down the road to fascism. Do not let anyone convince you otherwise, because we are, and have been for a while. We desperately need to have each other's backs. Stay aware of what's going on, if you don't consider yourself to be political, GET FUCKING POLITICAL. Get involved in irl community as much as possible, make connections and find out how you can help others, mutual aid is based as fuck and something you should be participating in asap. Learn how to keep yourself safe, 2nd amendment applies to us too, if guns aren't your style there are plenty of other forms of self defense to choose from. To anyone who's outside of the U.S, help spread news you come across, whether it's about protests or laws being passed, and if you're able to be there to offer comfort to any of your American friends who are scared right now. We see you guys and appreciate you, as censorship here intensifies you're going to be an important lifeline for us.

To anyone who's feeling alone and hopeless, who's stuck in red states, living with unaccepting families, financially vulnerable, immigrants, and anyone else who is scared right now, you are seen and you are not forgotten about. Stay alive at all costs, fight like hell, do not let them erase you.

DO NOT FORGET LUIGI!

Guys this isn't just a trend. While yes, he is hot. He stands for something more than that. He stands for someone who stood up for the working class and who gunned down an evil man. A man who profited off of millions of peoples misery and deaths.

KEEP TALKING ABOUT HIM! KEEP READING THE NEWS ABOUT HIM! KEEP SUPPORTING HIM! Never stop! This is important! We can't just forget what he has sacrificed for America...His freedom so we can have ours.

Or at least have a chance to fight back and gain our freedom from these insurance companies.

u guys should send me some asks >:3

Made a therian/alterhuman ask! Feel free to ask away or use this!

After all these years living in my bipedal body you'd think i would have gotten used to walking upright by now, but no i definitely have not.

It's honestly still such a weird feeling, everything about it just feels so foreign and uncomfortable. Not like, literally physically something is wrong (I do suffer semi frequent back pain, though that's entirely unrelated), but there's no doubt in my mind that my brain is wired to be operating a quadrupedal body, not bipedal. Being upright 24/7 goes against my instincts so intensely, it's one of the main reasons I first realized I was a therian.

Even in my current body, with my short neck and weak arms, it still feels more natural and normal to move on all fours than it does to move on two. It's like there's emergency alarms constantly going off in the back of my brain telling me that something isn't right, almost like that sinking feeling you get when you realize you're seriously injured. It's so jarring.

In a perfect world, I would love to be able to regularly move around using a combination of quadrobics and bipedal movements, kind of like alexias.films over on instagram if you know her. Maybe one of these days i'll work up the nerve to do public quads, there's so many cool places around my city id love to practice at

it would totally rock if you made a moomintroll pfp or just any art of him. i love your art <3<3<3

my favorite thing is when 2 therians whoes theriotypes are normally sworn enemies are just absolute besties irl

being fictionkin and proship at the same time gotta be the single biggest contradiction ever

in da classic fit
