really recommend getting a partner with a different religion than you and very little knowledge of your religion because the opportunities for explaining things to each other are just exquisite
yesterday she told me some story about the Buddha's wife and child and I was like. Wait. He fucked? And she was like yeah of course he fucked, why wouldn't he, he was the most attractive and loveable and and wise and etc. person who ever lived. why would he not fuck.
this morning she looked perplexed in the kitchen at me and said "did Jesus not fuck?"
worried that about donating to palestinian escape gofundmes instead of organizations like careforgaza i know are vetted; any tips for telling if one is legit?
Usually if an account reaches out to you and their tumblr page is a shit ton of popular posts all reblogged within minutes of each other, with a fundraising post pinned that was made maybe 45 minutes ago, it's a sign they're a scam (and are spamming reblogs to make themselves look more legit). Go to Operation Olive Branch for funds to donate to - their team is thorough when vetting funds and they have hundreds still waiting to reach their goal.
Awh oh gosh...thank you so much God damn. I'm transitioning the other way (mtf) but he gives hope
Folks have got to understand that they probably aren't messed up by some Secret Big Trauma that they just can't remember; but rather by a million tiny microtraumas that they do mostly remember but don't even register as traumatic because nobody actually understood that these things would cause trauma, much less stack on each other over the years.
Whether you're carrying one big rock or a big ol' bucket of sand, it's going to weigh on you just as much.
This is why psychologists have started taking more of an interest in CPTSD in the last 10-15 years. What most people know as PTSD is a response to a single, intensely traumatic event (or even a series of events). However, CPTSD (chronic post-traumatic stress disorder) is caused by living for years in a situation where your nervous system cannot catch a break. Even if nothing huge ever happened to you, you always had to be on guard for a thousand little things that could and did happen.
After years and years of this, your nervous system gets "stuck" in an activated threat response. It never really lets you rest, and if this started when you were a kid, you may not develop a lot of neural pathways that you should have, because your brain was too focused on keeping you safe to bother with little things like "genuine human connection" and "interpersonal attachment."
No lie, Complex PTSD/CPTSD is HUGE.
If you are disabled, if you are queer, if you are chronically ill, if you are the survivor of a toxic but not abusive relationship, if you grew up or lived under the threat of harm but no "actual" harm (or "very little" harm) was done, you may have CPTSD that isn't getting caught because CPTSD looks different from PTSD.
The creator of these images is Matt Bernstein, one of my favorite educators online -- he makes incredibly clear, forceful collections of information like this one. He's queer, has fantastic nails, and has done a lot of education recently from his perspective as a Jewish person on why supporting Palestine is so important. Here's a link to this post, which he created for World AIDS Day on 12/1/23.
I found out some over one hour ago..

[Start ID: the first image is of two cats hugging. They're doodled in black pixel lineart with round red cheeks scribbed in. Their eyes are closed, showing peaceful expressions.
There's text above them, slightly overlapping one of the cats. It reads: and maybe loving my friends is the most important thing I can do in my 20s.
In the second image, part of the text is covered up, and it now reads: and maybe loving my friends is the most important thing I can do
In the third and final image, more text is covered. It now reads: and maybe loving is the most important thing I can do. End ID.]
