[Image Description: Text of the poem “To the Young Who Want to Die” by Gwendolyn Brooks, next to a black and white photo of the poet. Poem reads as follows:

Sit down. Inhale. Exhale. The gun will wait. The lake will wait. The tall gall in the small seductive vial will wait will wait: will wait a week: will wait through April. You do not have to die this certain day. Death will abide, will pamper your postponement. I assure you death will wait. Death has a lot of time. Death can attend to you tomorrow. Or next week. Death is just down the street; is most obliging neighbor; can meet you any moment. You need not die today. Stay here–through pout or pain or peskyness. Stay here. See what the news is going to be tomorrow. Graves grow no green that you can use. Remember, green’s your color. You are Spring.

If you're someone who believes in the "Good Freak" vs "Bad Freak" shit just know I'm one of the Bad Freaks and you're getting blocked. Thanks.

Our glorious coping mechanism vs their barbarous sexualization of trauma. Get a grip.

"I actually think this character is better as a feminine boy than a trans girl" is like the trans equivalent to "strong platonic relationships between boys is more important than gay relationships in fiction"

I think we need to have an uncomfortable conversation on how white privilege doesn't protect white trans women from being socially murdered btw. In fact, people are extremely quick to fashjacket white transfems, posit them as Heinous Capital R Racists, and blame them for racism in the queer community. We might benefit from our whiteness in other ways, but it will never make us safe from transmisogyny, and it doesn't change that anyone TME holds power over us in that regard. Anyone can socially murder a trans woman. Anyone.

You, yes you, can socially murder a trans woman too! Just call her a pedophile rapist Nazi transphobe enough times and it'll stick and never come off! No matter who you are, this strategy works, guaranteed!

These same people who are so hyperfocused on white trans women never seem to really care about Black and POC transfems either, I wonder why 🤔

and if they do focus on twoc it's to white jacket them and claim they're not REALLY a person of color.

I mean. This isnt just out of this users head, too, this is supported by theories of intersectionality; a person with both privileged and marginalized identities doesnt ever really have those marginalizations "negated" by the privilege. A black man doesnt NOT experience racism because hes a man. A cis woman isnt avoiding misogyny by being cis. This is basics of the basics. And yet.

And yet, I had to pause before reblogging this, and felt need to add this defense, because of this very phenomenon. I'm a white trans woman, I've experienced this directly. By reblogging this I risk every single person following me thinking, "Hey, this WHITE trans woman's trying to dodge accusations of racism!!"

By far, the most pervasive form of transmisogyny is the refusal of the benefit of the doubt.

The thing that gets me about the impending Harry Potter show is like. I'm able to, for entirely hypothetical purposes, put aside my disdain and disgust for the author's full-tilt bigotry and put myself in the shoes of someone who's still a Fan, like I would be if the author hadn't doubled, tripled, and quadrupled down on being a full-tilt bigot, and even then, imagining the alternate universe where JKR remained a staunch ally and well-meaning if clueless liberal philanthropic darling, I still can't quite wrap my head around why I'd want this show to be made

Everyone keeps saying it's going to be a Faithful Adaptation Of The Series and I'm just like... okay? This isn't A Series Of Unfortunate Events that got a bad adaptation and they had to go back and try again to get it right. The majority of fans liked and continue to like the movies, a lot, and despite some minor quibbles here and there, they're considered incredibly faithful adaptations. The Fandom isn't exactly divided on this, either.

Like, I imagine a nearby alternate timeline where JKR was never hit by the Idiot Stick That Makes You Hate Women and remained normal, and I remained a fan of a flawed but influential children's fantasy series, and I can't really think of a reason why I would be excited about them trying to make lightning strike a second time. Are people really that mad about Michael Gambon saying "Harry did you put your name in the goblet of fire" animatedly instead of calmly? Or is WB just worried that the incoming demographic of theme park attendees have nowhere near the nostalgic link to the series that millennials would, and that if they don't inject the series back into the zeitgeist, the golden goose might stop laying eggs?

If JK Rowling hadn't gone full terf and this remake was happening then we'd all be wearily rolling our eyes at yet another carriage being hitched to the endless train of unnecessarily remade hits that nobody wants. People would be joking about "they're making a live action Harry Potter now" (the joke of course being that the previous one was also live action this time so they don't even have the normal excuse). People would revive old comparisons of Lion King shots and Mulan shots and put up Harry Potter ones next to them and joke about how expressive the animation is in the original. I can't see any world in which anyone would want this.
