Srsly if your 'advocacy' for intersex ppl boils down to "TERFs attack them bc they're so obsessed with trans ppl it makes them confused" then it's not advocacy at all.

Acknowledge the fact that TERFs have been actively obsessed with intersex bodies for a long time, and that they see us as an abberation that needs to be destroyed. The world does not revolve around perisex trans people. TERFs are fascists with a focus on enforcing the false construct of binary sex and gender. They want genocide against us and always have, because anyone who wants to enforce this kind of thing has to want us dead from the get-go or they wouldn't care.

In my experience, TERFs have consistently dehumanised me, and have made earnest attempts to exclude me from both masculine and feminine spaces. It's happened to me far too much and it happens to a lot of intersex people. They hope to isolate and ostracise us from society.

Intersex ppl aren't some mythical and nebulous spectre that you just bring up occasionally to signal your virtue while refusing to actually consider our humanity or experiences. 50% of intersex ppl struggle with suicidal ideation. Fucking give a damn about us.

Hey, so, like, what if we did 8tracks again, but better?

What if you could download somebody's fan-playlist, and then just Have It in one single, crossfaded MP3? What if perusing the site was formatted like you're browsing through someone's CD collection? What if there was a specific limit for songs per playlist, so there's no 400-hour long playlists filled with songs that only kind of fit the subject if you squint? What if you could team up with other people to do it? And what if you could do it with stuff you found on YouTube, and you could comment on each individual track choice?

Doesn't that sound awesome??

Okay, cool! Then go upload your playlists to Mixtape Garden!! There's only a few active users right now and it's a goddamn tragedy. Fuck Spotify

Not pertinent to anything in particular but I do think it's kinda weird that we keep depicting cavemen in media crawling around on all fours covered in dirt with tangled, matted hair, speaking in broken, cobbled-together toddler language when like.

They were us.

Like literally genetically they were US, just like. A while ago.

Would you trust a TV caveman with a baby? Probably not

A real life caveman though??? I think they'd be at least okay at it

as soon as the internet decided depression and anxiety were the everyman mental illnesses and therefore not to be taken seriously we were all fucked tbh bc the fact that i have to feel embarrassed to admit i have debilitating anxiety because people will think im just an uwu dont call me out coward is ridiculous. its insane that i have to clarify that my depressive episodes are like life threatening and not whatever dipshit dumbed down idea of depression people seem to have like oh yeah i just wanna watch netflix and eat ice cream and not text people back. like bro i think im the devil

"Are you a boy or a girl?" I'm a punchline.

Santa Claus has come to my puffer tank. Puffy X'mas!

Daily fish fact #782

Longspined porcupinefish!

As a defense against predators, this fish can swallow water into its stretchy stomach to quickly grow in size, erecting the sharp spines on its skin that otherwise lie flat! The stomach of the longspined porcupinefish is extremely specialised for this purpose: it is full of folds, has additional muscles surrounding it that squeeze out the water once it's time to deflate, and lacks any digestive ability.
