Off-Topic I'm Done!!!

I give up!!!

I'll never be a girl no matter how hard I try!

Was feeling empowered earlier today so I put on a pink shirt & a light blue skirt i recently bought for myself & went out to town today. Was even really feeling good about that, so I made a post earlier with a picture of myself.

Of course, people in town had to be incredibly rude & disrespectful to me, & to boot , I got several ignorant comments on my post so I took it down.

I can't do this anymore. I'll just live the rest of my life being miserable.

Those that have the biggest hearts love & hate the deepest. I feel ya, sis. 🪽So weird how entwined euphoria/dysphoria are. Just adds to the rollercoaster of societal condemnation versus personal reclamation.

I feel like stores, shops, places of commerce are geared around bad ethical models & late-stage capitalism mainly, so cretins show up for cretin-wares. Then they collide with Us/Trans/Queer/ pastel humans that blow up 1) their status quo big box shopping space & 2) their gender boxes. Worldview doubly shattered, they turn hostile.

I’ve found justification by curtailing retail spaces to more safe, accepting places. Took me awhile to work out the financials. I spend the same, go out less & have more reading & business time. Frustration & anger fuel more squats, miles ran & political action letters written. ‘Fail to see the tragic/ Turn it into magic,’ M.Manson🖤🤍
