I don't know if you're memeing Propagandhim, but I agree and also think Era is far from unique in this automatic defensive posture.

Say it loud, say it proud: "I think X fails some moral standard, and I consciously choose to engage in X, I am at peace with this choice, and have no intentions to change my behavior!"

I love artists.

I use generative AI to generate AI art, and I'm happy when companies us it so they don't have to pay artists.

No, I am not a hypocrite.

I'm always fascinated by the chud-ness in left leaning spaces whenever animal rights are brought up. Also "humane slaughter" is any oxymoron.

It's because eating animal products is inherently conservative, so people who do act like the conservative chuds they are when veganisim comes up.

Hitler was a vegetarian and it was used to promote him as an animal lover, he even criticized others for eating meat.

Are you really wanting to defend Hitler?

im not memeing:  look, I may spend 5 hours a day looking at porn sites that feed me a nonstop slew of videos entitled, "This fucking useless whore swallows my cum", "Dumb bitch lets me fuck her in the ass", "Slut gags on my dick" but look, an endless stream of videos where women are being comically degraded, humiliated, objectified, slapped around, called worthless, and reduced to disposable holes for male gratification, should lead you to an understanding: my orgasm is actually praxis.  praxis in the asses.  Cumming is a necessary form of self-care which allows me to show up more effectively in my activism, both on and off Resetera.  At the end of the day, my incessant need for unending porn is a utilitarian good.

I know it's kind of a self-centred thing to say and I'm sorry this is the place where I do this but I always hated myself. I don't know when it started, even as a little kid, way before I actually got bullied in middle school, I thought something is seriously wrong with me. That I need to hide my needs, my thoughts and what I like.

Most people who know me in RL would probably say I'm an extrovert who is bad at reading the room and at knowing when there is enough lexony. I know people think I'm naive because I can see the positive in almost anything and will speak before I think. Some might conclude these are the obvious traits of someone who had a hard time growing up and just wants to be part of everything, but most probably just see a really insecure guy. Someone you feel bad for, you can be friendly with and have smalltalk, but better not get too close.

The easy answer would be to just "be myself", but I honestly don't know who I even am.

Somehow I was able to put up with it all this time, but right now it's affecting my life at every step I take. I have to change. I already accepted I will keep being my biggest enemy and never actually like myself, but I think I realise now I've to finally bring me in a state where I can at least tolerate me.

I don't want to sound like a hammer looking for nails, but.......... what's your take on HRT?

first and foremost I blame your family, because so much of the shit we can't remember informs us, and those who raise us lay a lot of foul groundwork whether they mean to or not. I know I felt fundamentally wrong in many ways, but I was often given space enough as a young child for it not to be something I loathed myself for. that changed later when my mom got a lot worse towards me, but even through all of that, having slightly more baseline let me recognize that she was being pretty fucking awful.

not that it helped much; I still carry so many of those scars.

but — I did spend a great deal of my life disassociated from myself. feeling like even if I forced a persona I wasn't entirely clear on what the "me" of it was, etc. and that felt hollow. I kind of thought that would just be my life.

at some point, I realized I was trans. through some sad shit, actually. but even then, I was fine taking my time and I was doing well enough with who I thought I was. even knowing that, I could sideline it for "just getting through" and protecting myself from a place I hated that already hated me.

but the real reason I ask... is because a lot of those feelings are very familiar. and I'm sure we share a lot of root causes, trans or not.

but I also cannot adequately describe what happened when I started taking HRT.

the encroaching quiet.

there was a live wire through me that I never knew was on. there was a constant detracting voice, and it turned off. the medication made me different — more than I was expecting.

sure, it didn't solve all my problems. but holy shit. I did not know it could be that different. and I really needed it to be.

all that said — I know that transition isn't the only thing to point at. but what you say sounds painfully familiar, and transitioning changed me in a way that was far deeper than I thought it would be. if you've ever so much as considered it... it may be the thing that changes it all for you.

I highly recommend watching I Saw the TV Glow and seeing how you feel by the end of it.

and I know the odds of it being the right thing for you are slim.

but if there's a chance, and only because I've been there... it's worth a shot.

This radical treatment that could irreversibly change your body is very unlikely to be the right thing for you...

but shit, you should try it anyways. For reasons.

Frankly, I want to be supportive of your process but watching smut with the sound on is too far gone.

Famiboards is secretly stoking trans hate

After Fat4All has had like 6 straight years of trying and failing to be funny, he finally does something that was actually kinda funny, and they ban him for it.

You know, imagine me being BoredFrom and you being like "I just saw a plate of nachos the other day and it reminded me of you".  You wouldn't do that.  And yet, I'm mr fucking macaroni.  King pizza.  Does anyone else on earth get as marginalized as us?  Do black people have to deal with people who are like, "I saw a basketball today and it reminded me of our friendship" and yet I'm captain fucking cannoli I knew it was unwise to return to this forsaken place

buckle up!

Wasn't this a besada line in the BlackGAF thread back in the day? but I think it was jambalaya. 

"I'm sitting here eating a bowl of jambalaya thinkin' of ya'll" or some cringe shit and everyone died from embarrassment.

Anyway, gotta get back to firing my red white and blue guns into the air from my bariatric scooter as I drive it out of the McDonald's drive thru with 11 quarter pounders with cheese.

Look at it this way, prop. Your posts are too good, so the linguine hanging out of your pockets is the only material we have to work with.
