What Strength Really Means 💪

Hey everyone, my name is Abdelmajed. I don’t usually talk much about myself, but today, I want to share a little piece of my story.

I was born and raised in Gaza, a place that has always been my home 🏡. I grew up surrounded by my family, my friends, and the streets that I knew like the back of my hand. Life wasn’t always easy, but we had love, laughter, and dreams. I used to think that no matter what happened, home would always be here. But life has a way of changing things in ways we never expect.

Over the past months, everything I once knew has disappeared. The streets that were once filled with children playing are now silent. The houses that held so many memories are now just rubble. And the people I loved—some of them are gone forever. 💔

shapeshift!

Going on a transandrodorks blog is like, first post is about how trans women communities online are infiltrated by "baeddel terfs" and when you go to op's blog you find them reblogging actual "JK Roweling did nothing wrong" terf blogs. The next post is long screed about the history of trans women being misandrist towards trans men, but you check the sources and they lead back to medium articles they themselves wrote that itself links back to terf blog posts about how sad it is trans men associate with trannies and that terfs could save them that are made in 2019 that have no sources to anything the article claims. The third post is a joke post made by a dude that said he should be allowed to hunt trans women. The fourth post is about how the situation in Israel is incredibly nuanced and no one has the cultural understanding to get what's happening that's written by a person that threatened to dox and harm a Native American person for disagreeing with them "you're part of a small tribe, it wouldnt be hard to ruin your life." The last post you can stomach is about how all language discussing transmisogyny is intersexist and how all trans women on Tumblr are somehow the worst intersexist bigot you've ever known, the post is written by someone who personally called you "male" intentionally misgendered you in a mini call out and consistently has terf ideology on their blog accidentally.

It's funny because this culture is so clearly in and of itself influenced by GC cultural feminism and transmisogyny that any accusation of "transfem TERF" reads as half incoherent and half a self-aware "accuse them of what you are guilty of" tactic.

There's a reason that their understanding of misogyny and patriarchy begins and ends with sex-essentialism and an indelible female-ness that trans women can never experience, empathize with, or truly "suffer" like they do.

The TERF is barely under the surface, and there is barely a veneer of deniability.

@patricia-taxxon making me play board games (i do not get it) (what is going on) (i just like hanging out)

Yeah Silk & Dagger is way less horny than a lot of OG Forgotten Realms lore regarding drow that it's riffing off, but it is a lot more up front about being sort of a sex-comedy.

We asked ourselves "What kind of conditions would produce a society and individuals actually like this?" and then "What would develop as a result?" And the answer is this.. sexy dominatrix libertarian nightmare world.

Yeah ever since I've heard that Ed Greenwood gave a lore dump about how breast milk tastes like for each race in the forgotten realms I definitely agree with the title of "horniest man alive" like wdym tiefling breast milk tastes spicy and like cinnamon rolls like wtf

I remember during puberty talk in 6th grade they handed out permission slips for parents to sign if they didn’t want their kids getting sex ed and like five students ended up having to wait in the library while the rest of us learned about puberty and health stuff.

Afterwards during lunch recess almost everyone in class spent our time telling those five kids what we learned and showing them our handouts.

"male loneliness epidemic" is misleading because it implies that men are suffering because they can't get girls when I feel like the actual problem is that pretty much any online content that's aimed specifically at men conceptualizes the masculine ideal as what I call the Buff Scammer. there are only two things in this world that matter, says the Buff Scammer: being jacked and making money. how you get to either of those things doesn't matter, you just need to be as rich and as buff as possible or you have failed as a man. Get into drop shipping. Eat nothing but raw meat. Rugpull a memecoin. Remove seasonings from your diet. Sell an online course. Go to the gym daily. Starve yourself so your body will achieve ketosis and start burning fat. Attend a seminar on real estate investing. Work 80 hours a week. Take steroids but don't let anyone know about that part. Flip a YouTube channel after 10xing the subs. Sell AI art on Etsy and AI audiobooks on Amazon. What's that? You're trying to do this to get girls? Why would you care about women? Women are all stupid whores who don't help you get richer or buffer. The only people you should be paying attention to are other rich, buff men. If you do hang out with women you should be pimping them out on Chaturbate so you can at least get an ROI off your time spent not thinking about men. Male friends? You don't have time for friends. You should be hustling and grinding 24/7 365. And if you absolutely do need to spend time around other men you should only be spending time with other buff scammers so you can collaborate on entrepreneurial ventures. Like Jesus Christ even writing this is exhausting I feel like trying to be this dude would be fucking miserable like not only did you turn yourself into a friendless, materialist, misogynistic asshole who can only conceptualize the world in terms of value extracted but you're NOT EVEN HAVING FUN DOING IT!!!!!!

At some point in my transition, the "hate yourself, get an eating disorder, buy product" messaging I get switched from woman flavor to man flavor, and omfg. What the hell is this shit!

The "woman" version would often disguise itself as self care. There's this facade of softness and gentleness. ("indulge yourself: buy skincare! do what's right for YOU: starve yourself and smile emptily at zucchini noodles! this is empowering. your body is a temple, divine feminine chakra mother!!!") In the man version, no such thing. Self compassion is not allowed. You've got to brutally grind yourself into the shape of a Real Man or die trying, but you don't get to *enjoy* being the Real Man because comfort is for girrrrrrlllssss.

My dangerous trans gender ideology is that being a man should be enjoyable. If there's nothing fun about it, change your approach or stop being a man.

getting into an argument with a guy about gyaru fashion history but it increasingly becomes clear that his archetypical gyaru was britney speares in baby one more time

bocchi the rock stuff

the most annoying stage of burnout is when i want to write, and i have the urge to write, and somewhere in my skull are the words that want to be written, but they have to get through the cursed minotaur maze first and nobody remembered to bring string

honestly being around people who are not uncomfortable with you having feelings and desires makes the people who were uncomfortable so much worse in retrospect

like. oh! you were just evil

Saw so many cool Pomni redesigns I decided to draw a couple of them

See my Twitter post for a thread of all their original tweets/artists: https://twitter.com/robert00poole/status/1788381757860942046

(Some of them are probably on Tumblr too but I'm lazy lol)
