Twitter is pretty unpleasant now and I mostly use it to poke at terves; it's a vice. But if you want more fun stuff (lotta conlangs and horror movies lately, as well as Sector General recaps), I'm in the Sky under the same name

🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ My OB/GYN was kind enough to list out her reasons as to why a trans woman should see an OB/GYN. This is for the numerous transphobes and TERFs who say we are "stealing appointment time from REAL women" or "why not see a urologist?" Here's what she gave me, 1. Neovaginal care is real medical care. Doctors monitor tissue health, healing, scarring, and issues like narrowing or irritation over time. 2. Infections Trans women can experience bacterial or yeast infections, along with general irritation or discharge that needs evaluation. 3. STI Screening HIV, HPV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, etc, are still risks for trans women just as they are for anyone else who is sexually active. 4. Cancer screening Although there is no cervix, the tissue used to create a neovagina can still develop abnormalities and, in rare cases, cancer. 5. Pelvic Floor Health Surgery changes anatomy, and that can affect muscles, urinary function, and comfort during sex. 6. Sexual Health and Comfort Pain, dryness, and changes in sensation are all valid medical concerns, not just "something to live with." 7. Long-Term Surgical Follow-Up Even years later, things like scarring, structural changes, or rare complications can come up. 8. Hormones Hormones affect genital tissue. And OB/GYNs can often help monitor how estrogen affects tissue health. Additionally, they can prescribe hormone replacement therapy. The point is really simple. A trans woman doesn't require a uterus in order to see an OB/GYN. She benefits from seeing one because she has a body that deserves competent, specialized medical care. This isn't complicated. It's just healthcare.

@TakedownMRAs @DailyMail It's getting so an innocent person can't even say something spectacularly bigoted without being denounced as a bigot! IT'S MADNESS

@DailyMail Yes, transphobes ARE bigots

BRENDA POWER: Women have been OUSTED as the fashionable victims du jour by TRANSGENDERISM and now demanding something simple like a MAN-FREE dressing room gets you denounced as a BIGOT... trib.al/WyGPUVP

"I am not left-handed!" "I am not left-handed, either!"

@beadpunk YES IT IS SO SATISFYING

i love pre measuring all my ingredients into little bowls and ramekins cooking shows were so right about that actually

@Diamandahagan @DiscussingFilm You're welcome to join me on my couch and not watch it with me!

@DiscussingFilm Can't wait to not watch it.

First look at the live-action ‘HARRY POTTER’ series.

@Lanajay_art Those are adorable. The Strawberry Fairy reminds me a little of Duane Bryers's Hilda!

Let’s all shut up about these AI fruits and talk about my fruit fairies instead

That is the CUTEST MUPPET OMG

So did she

@heyze_o @EliErlick Alt text: a video of Nazis burning books from their raid on the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft. The books contain groundbreaking research on the psychology of gender identity and sexual orientation. Potter author JK Rowling famously denied this raid occurred.

@EliErlick What kind of people destroy books? 🤔

An iconic UK bookstore is offering visitors the opportunity to vandalize Harry Potter books for 25 pence. The Bookish Type, the trans-owned bookstore in Leeds running the promotion, will donate all proceeds to gender-affirming healthcare costs. Go support them!

Friend just asked me if there's a word for "that sort of ... fridge horror looking back at a period of your life that seemed only slightly crappy at the time and being like, 'damn, girl, we lived like this?'" We didn't find one, so we decided to make one! "Misonostia"!

If I'd only realized this last year, I could have skipped the endometrial ablation and started an OnlyFans

If people are fighting for an orb you are reading fantasy. If people are fighting for a cube you are reading sci-fi. If it has more sides than that. I dont know. I dont know man.

@Xpreseccodrink1 Sorry to hear that. That's a very strange set of assumptions you've made.

@AmeliaRoseWrite @DailyMail No it’s reality - I’ve lost someone via childbirth (they were female btw) You don’t like women but want to be one? Why? Why are you so jealous?

@esjesjesj EXCUSE YOU, Halloween *is* Satan worship!

Do right wingers believe Halloween costumes are real

@LA_Knight89 I mean, that's OBVIOUSLY Godzilla, yeah

Godzilla

@Xpreseccodrink1 @DailyMail I'm actually starting to wonder if "suffering as a woman" IS a fetish many terves have--and want to gatekeep. They do carry on about it ad nauseam

@DailyMail Another question is why did he want to do it? It’s something he’s 100% guaranteed to never suffer from- along with menstruation, childbirth and menopause- so is it part of his fetish?
