I Wish I Was A Cishet Guy So That I Could Start A Podcast And Go To The Gym And Allow That To Fulfill

stop reblogging butch and femme Matthew Lillard

STOP no more live-action remakes. We're going the other way now. Animated Casablanca. Animated The Godfather. Animated Oppenheimer. Animated Fight Club.

so you’re a 30 year old libtard still obsessed with some gays from a failed ghost show? Please seek help

I’ve never felt so seen. But legally you can’t ask me about that. It’s my prescription gay ghost show 😬

internet politics and real-world politics have gotten so separated, and pretty soon all this internet weirdness is gonna come crashing into real life and politicians are gonna start throwing around words like “SJW” and “anime communist” and “dark enlightenment” and it’s just gonna be the most ridiculous fucking thing

need to be pressed into the skin of the person I love as we fall asleep together and I think they should be a guy who plays rugby or maybe a guy who used to box but I think they should be a baker as well and I think they should be loud and flamboyant but I also think they should be sturdy and quiet and comfortable in their own skin about it but also I think I want to be in love with a woman who paints and she should be a million things you can’t pin down but really I think none of it matters and I’ll love anyone who loves me because I’m so desperate to be seen and known and I’ve never felt more like a real person than when my face is being held

And fuck, if I was born right it would be simpler for people to love me.

With each passing day, I appreciate animated Katara more and more

things that happened to me when i was a woman in STEM:

an advisor humiliated me in front of an entire lab group because of a call I made in his place when he wouldn't reply to my e-mails for months

he later delegated part of my master's thesis work to a 19-year old male undergrad without my approval

a male scientist at a NASA conference looked me up and down and asked when i was graduating and if i was open to a job at his company. right before inquiring what my ethnicity was because i "looked exotic"

a random male member of the public began talking over me and my female advisor, an oceanographer with a pHD and decades of experience, saying he knew more about oceanography than us

things that have happened to me since becoming a man in STEM:

being asked consistently for advice on projects despite being completely new to a position

male colleagues approaching me to drop candid information regarding our partners / higher ups that I was not privy to before

lenience toward my work in a way I haven't experienced before. incredible understanding when I need to take time off to care for my family.

conference rooms go silent when I start talking. no side chatter. I get a baseline level of attention and focus from people that's very unfamiliar and genuinely difficult for me to wrap my head around.

like. yes some PI's will still be assholes regardless of the gender of their subordinates but, I've lived this transition. misogyny in STEM is killing women's careers, and trans men can and do experience male privilege.
