I suppose its past time I wrote one of these for my main blog....
About Me

I'm a 30-something trans woman with a penchant for witchcraft, archaeology, and queer activism. I'm healing from complex PTSD, so do please bear that in mind. Feel free to follow me, but just letting you know now that if you cross any of my boundaries, I will block you.

DM policy - I'm not generally open to these, unless I message you first (which I will almost never do). If you do message me, keep in mind that I make liberal use of the block button, but I might reply if I feel like it. So DM at your own risk, basically. (This policy also applies to both people i happen to follow and mutuals. Just because we follow each other does *not* mean you are the exception.)

Ask policy - ask away! I will answer most questions. If i don't answer you it's because i don't feel like it.

Reblogs - feel free to reblog anything i post. Keep in mind that if i like or reblog something of yours, you shouldn't take it as an invitation to try and get to know me.

Comments - comments are generally okay, except if they cross any boundaries of mine. Sometimes I might leave comments on your posts, but again, this is not an invitation.

Absolutely NO horny DMs, nudes, or general idiots will be tolerated. This includes but is not limited to: fascists, radfems/terfs, conservatives, racists, bigots of any kind, sissy blogs, porn bots, people who think they can be my dom, and people who think they're the exception to these rules. If you fall into any of the above categories, or even if I don't like the way your vibes feel, YOU WILL BE BLOCKED ON SIGHT.

I do have an nsfw sideblog, but i don't repost that sort of thing here.

All that said, I do try and be friendly to people. I am rather wary of others due to past experiences here and elsewhere, however, so tbh I find it necessary to establish these boundaries.

So, baaaasically.... if you're a mature, balanced, and compassionate person, and if you respect my boundaries, you're very welcome here.

Over a year has passed and finally it's finished!! Loki means the world to me, and I think this piece really encapsulates that. Sparrow & them will always be my dynamic duo (made with watercolor, colored pencil, and gel pen)

I don’t know exactly what’s going on here, but Cal Kestis isn’t straight that’s for sure. Stop having chemistry with like every single character.

Mosey Cimmaron

Boba Fett

Was in the game for like 2 minutes and now kesett is a thing. Their chemistry was insane.

i’m obsessed with this quote from vivian wilson (elon musk’s daughter)

Signs of a heart attack are different for each gender yet we only really teach the male warning signs. Make sure you’re aware of both and spread it to as many other women as possible!

EVERY SINGLE TIME I HAVE TAKEN A CPR CLASS I have had to be that person who points out that the training videos ALWAYS frame the “male” symptoms as the default universal heart attack experience, while the “female” symptoms are framed as though they’re a deviation from the norm, rather than the primary symptom set that cis women experience. 

ALSO: I just showed this post to my roommate, who is an MD at a clinic that specializes in care for the LGBT community in the Baltimore area. I asked her  whether hormones were responsible for the difference in the “male/female” symptom arrays. I asked how that would apply to her trans patients (which, she treats a LOT of trans patients). She said, basically, that the longer you’ve taken testosterone the more likely you are to get the intense chest pressure and the arm pain, versus the upper back pressure and shortness of breath.

Obviously I am not a doctor myself, consult your own health care provider, etc.

Reblogging this comment because this is the FIRST TIME I’ve ever seen someone address what XYZ medical condition would look like in trans patients. Also this is partly why my great-grandma died: the (male) doctor dismissed her heart attack as basically indigestion, because she didn’t have the typical male symptoms.

Oh my God someone was able to answer the trans patient question!

i remember when i was a child internet safety was like "if you even hint at the country you live in, you're gonna get kidnapped and murdered", and nowadays it is encouraged or even necessary to give corporations every single personal detail if you want to use anything because if they can't sell your information they cry so hard they throw up
