Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My father alone has killed many people. He's really sad he only had daughters, because who will kill people now?

Damn..I fell down another rabbit hole. Is Chaz Bono gay or straight? I thought he was straight. Huff Post slideshow confused me.

Now I'm reading about Chuck Norris being a general doucherag in a pro-ammunition publication.

WTF? Pro-ammunition? Is that a step further than the NRA, which is only pro-gun? Guns don't kill people--ammunition kills people.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

At first I was trying to tie Bambi into the trans versus radfem debate and I was totally confused.

That guy's picture clearly indicates he wants to eat my face, no bath salting required.

I need to know why everyone isn't responding to claims of transethnicity by laughing themselves to death. That does appear to be the sanest response.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The tumblrs I was reading were very much stating that there was no such thing as a cis self-defined trans* ally.

If I am not real, can this damn headache also not be real, please? I mean, if Tumblrs are going to re-define me away, my headache can go, too.

And there seems to be an ongoing battle on tumblr between trans* women and radical feminists.

That shit is UGLY. I'm pretty damned feminist, but the shit radfems say about trans* women makes me ashamed to even claim to be a feminist of any stripe. DAMN.

t this has been your Steph-posts-about-trans*-stuff moment for today

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just started a moving to-do list, which included the item "cull misc. crap." Oh dear.

Transethnicity? Srsly??

Chaz is however he wants to identify. Many trans guys who are still attracted to women do ID as straight, because hey, hes a guy who likes girls. Others choose to say queer so as to align themselves more with the larger queer community. Depends on the person--and not something anyone besides him would be able to say.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Bambi was the first step towards the apocalypse:

What I particularly like about the story as that this guy, I assume he's a Christian, apparently thinks that when the Creator goes head to head against a fictional baby deer, GOD LOSES.

That guy's picture clearly indicates he wants to eat my face, no bath salting required.

He's fetishizing death as we speak, there's no doubt about that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Frank!

Back from the con. I'm tired and feeling achy. Bleh.

You make a good point bt. How can someone's belief in God be so vociferous and yet so tenuous?
