Saw someone in a tiktok comment section saying they got their sexual awakening from Kurt Russell in The Thing (1982) which is absolutely hysterical to imagine trying to watch THE THING for the first time and then all of a sudden your brain starts doing this:

Relatable ngl I do this when I watch the thing

there's a unique sort of black comedy to transitioning in a public-facing job. every damn day I get called 'the lady' at work. sometimes it's only once a day, sometimes I get very lucky and go a day without, sometimes it's relentless. I cut my hair short in the hopes that I'd hear it less. that didn't work. I wear a pronoun badge on my lanyard to give people the hint. one single person has noticed it and corrected themselves in the last 4 months. I figure the tits are kind of a giveaway, but binding makes me more uncomfortable a lot of the time. still, today I wore my binder, with the short hair, with the pronoun badge, and I swear I got called 'the lady' more times than any other day I can remember. at this rate I feel like I'm gonna be out there with a full beard and people will still be calling me the fucking lady

update:

today I helped a man with some printing and he obviously saw the badge because before he left he said 'thank you MATE' in an extremely overenthusiastic blokey voice that was wildly different from the way he had been talking, so sometimes the comedy is actually wholesome
