Brat

This morning i had a really rough time; i had an earring fall out and the hole is too swollen to put a replacement, some old lady tried to run me off the road because she couldnt stay in her land during a turn, and i forgot to take my pills. All of it accumulated into a scream from deep down. Usually when i scream it feels so "man" and just makes me feel even worse after, but this one felt very feminine rage yelling. Im not sure what was different but it actually felt nice to yell for the first time in forever.

My local oil change location has 20% off for "ladies nights". My car needs full synthetic so one thing led to another....

I shot guns this weekend for the first time. If you're able to find a leftist gun club in your area I'd fully recommend doing it. I feel so much more comfortable with the amount of training I've gotten already and am now considering purchasing a gun for myself at some point.

My mom visited me from out of town this weekend. She's been mostly supportive but also really boomer about everything up until now, but recently she has been talking to people who know trans people and reading books to understand me better. I have never felt so seen and so understood by my mom. We talked the harm we've both done to each other candidly, and she accepted responsibility as the parent for all of it.

Before this, i was sure that she'd never "get" it and that our relationship was always going to be at arms length but she switched it up on me. And now our relationship is going to be difficult again but it's a very different difficult and I'm really excited for it.

Not even Mao or Stalin treated enemy soldiers as harshly as this.

And now the world is run by Nazis. Thank you for pointing out their failures.

People really fell for the "the US army is made of poor people doing what they can to survive" propaganda of the 00s.

US cops too

I met a trans woman letter carrier once. She seemed to really like her job but I didn't get to know her well enough to know deeper thoughts on it.

This is why a lot of pro trans stuff is getting shot down too. There was just a safe-haven bill that got killed in Maine due to death threats. The fact that they won't listen to anything but death threats is bleak af.

How do I start/find a trans gun org in my city? I want to make the trans rifle association and get armed and trained but have no idea where to start.

It's so fricking hard. I'm over 30 and not understanding my body that I thought I knew for so long is rough.
