And I’m eating pickles for dinner.
i just ate a bucket of micro popcorn and did two shots of jim beam.
former-contender asked: whatever it is bitch, DON'T LEAVE CHICAGO. See that helps narrow it down right?
I mean I might really be weeping at the thought of it. And about how much I’m just broken about how I feel about life right now. I’m too old for this.
There are not enough mood stabilizing drugs in the world that can make the idea of going back my job tomorrow feel not terrible.

Love and solidarity for femmes who don't apologize...
tangledupinlace:
I see you with your 5 o’clock shadows, your outfits held together with safety pins and strategically placed belts, your leather and your florals and the snarl on your faces and I can’t keep my heart from bursting.
Femininity FOREVER
and ever and ever.
New motto for dealing with job?

It’s absolutely perfect outside today (in the 50s, warm damp, sunny)
I’m wearing my black dress with the gold studs, my new studded/chain boots, black tights, giant porcupine quill earrings an over-sized cape jacket and massive attitude. It would really be wrong to hide this amazingness from the world.
I think I’ll take a 2 hour lunch.

It would be really tempting to leave a counterattack note.
I thought about duct taping a box of ear plugs in the main hallway with a note that says “HELP YOURSELF!”

transmisogynist cis women in queer spaces | trans grrrl riot
fuck you. go home. get out of my space. get out of our space.
so last night i was attending a fun queer variety show of sorts. super hot performers, a significant amount of trans folk and genderfuckery galore.
my date and i actually came closer to the second half / end of the show, which is kind of a bummer, but...
um so like i’m pretty sure my job just got like 100x’s worse because they fired two of our support team today.

That's What She Said
prettyqueer:
Sometimes I wonder whether trans men writing about transmisogyny and trans-man-douchebaggery and how much is sucks is the new spoken word poetry. Every time I’ve written anything about how trans dude culture can get pretty gross in the way it appropriates the experiences and oppression of trans women, I have gotten tons of great feedback and had so many people tell me I was so...

womanofkleenex:
I’m almost done with graduate school — in fact, I’m defending my dissertation next Monday. This has led to some navel gazing. In particular, I’ve been thinking a lot about advice I got from various sources that actually helped me survive. I know a lot of y’all are graduate students, or may become…

I’m getting job angst again. It’s been building up over the past few months and I feel like there’s something really massive on the horizon that I need to make a reality.
Interestingly enough, my astrobarry horoscope seems to point to future stuff too.

Dear Sugar in Chicago THIS WEEK →
oh god y’all. Stephen Elliot and Dear Sugar in person in Chicago THIS THURSDAY! I die!

At the top of the bill, and the headliner in our hearts, is Cheryl Strayed, the formerly anonymous author of the insightful, intimate, engaging “Dear Sugar” advice column that appears biweekly on the Rumpus. If you’re not familiar with Sugar, check out the New...

I just ordered supplies to be delivered overnight for my best friend’s belly cast. We’re going to wrap her up in plaster tomorrow night. I’m pretty excited about it.
I mean, this whole baby thing is pretty exciting in general. I haven’t really been this involved in a baby’s life like ever. Since my bestie is a single mom, we’re all sort of creating a...

Cindy Sherman’s Knees (from slate.com) →
The show—curated by Eva Respini with Lucy Gallun—is put together as a narrative. If it dallies with Sherman’s grotesquerie to a punishing extent, well, what do you expect? An artist ready to make her body over must linger seriously on the matters of death and decay in extremely strange ways.

Winter snowy day
The dogs are gone for the weekend on a trial run with their maybe new house. I want it to go well, but they are little assholes, so it’s hard to say.
I really wish I didn’t have to be at work today. It’s the perfect sort of day for hanging out, drinking, watching movies and ______.

jayne can’t believe we don’t have queso in southern california. WE DON’T. i have never even HAD it. that is a tex mex thing. i even just put “queso” into yelp and all that came up was “queso blanco”. someone bring me this magical queso.
Dude, queso dip is THE BOMB.
One of my favorites is from Kerby Lane Cafe, which is a creamy pale dip that has a huge spoonful of guacamole...

Motherfucking fuck. Some asswipe did around $300 in fraudulent charge damage to my checking account by stealing my credit/debit card #s.
what the fuck, today?
I just want to take a moment to appreciate that it is 5:40 and it’s still a little light outside.

Work has been so busy and life is so weird and I’m so tired and i really just want to curl up into a ball and die or have someone give me an IV of Manhattans.
Or at least something to keep me totally preoccupied for the next 3 hours of work.

On queers and amateur art collecting
whateverjeanne:
I buy queer art whenever I can. It’s important to me to collect queer art and make room for it in my queer house and my queer life. We keep each other company. And because I write about queer, trans and feminist art and artists it’s especially meaningful to me. It’s about value and processes of valuation, and taking control of how value is assigned across bodies and aesthetic...

A snippet from a conversation on google about the conversation surrounding reclaiming the word “tranny”
When it comes down to it, words that have been “reclaimed” feel better to hear when they’re coming out of the mouths of those who have reclaimed them. I’m not trans, so calling myself or anyone else “tranny” doesn’t feel good for me....

I dreamed that I moved into an apartment in a weird part of town. And my place was haunted and there were terrible people trying to break in all the time. My family came to help me, and apparently my brother was Jason Segal, who gave me the biggest most amazing hug that felt so real that I woke up feeling totally comforted.

How to clean a leather harness (from the hairpin) →
I have this fabulous, sexy leather strap-on harness. Or, I should say, my girlfriend has it. I have orgasms. Sometimes it stays pretty clean and we can, as recommended by Good Vibrations and its packaging, just wipe it down with a damp cloth. However, sometimes it gets some pretty heavy contact and the damp-cloth method is just not cutting it. Plus, germs!
Since we don’t want to get the...

I only really care about holidays (religious or otherwise) that involve me eating awesome fucking food.
Anything that is about fasting, non-hedonistic activities, etc can suck it
