  • Okay, there’s actually a speculated reason for this: while you’re dreaming, your body is paralyzed but your brain is not. When you go into fight-or-flight when you’re dreaming, your brain starts trying to take sensory input from both your dream self and your real self. As a result, your brain is receiving mixed signals: your arm is moving and it’s not moving; you’re successfully controlling your arm but you can’t control your arm. The result is that it feels like it takes a significant amount of effort to move your arm, and your arm moves slowly.

    My own personal experience seems to support this: if I casually run or hit something in a dream, then it happens as expected. If I’m in fight-or-flight mode, then my actions occur in slow motion. However, I got lucky and became lucid during one such moment, and decided to try consciously focus on just moving my dream arm, and I was no longer moving in slow motion.


  • “This video should challenge us all to commit to making the Kennedy Center a place where everyone is welcomed,” writes Kennedy Center President Richard Grenell, a Trump appointee who is also the special presidential envoy for special missions, on X. “It troubles me to see that so many in the audience appear to be white and intolerant of diverse political views. Diversity is our strength. We must do better. We must welcome EVERYONE. We will not allow the Kennedy Center to be an intolerant place.”

    Hold up. What did you just say?

    “It troubles me to see that so many in the audience appear to be white and intolerant of diverse political views. Diversity is our strength. We must do better. We must welcome EVERYONE. We will not allow the Kennedy Center to be an intolerant place.”

    W-what? I’m sorry, what!? What the actual fuck do you think you’re saying with those words? Those words have no business coming out of your mouth.



  • “You’re complaining about a genocide that hasn’t happened yet when there’s genocide going on right now in Gaza!” The reaction to that link: “That isn’t genocide and you’re making light of genocide if you call it that.”

    Oooo… I got that one from a furry on discord. My jaw hit the floor when they said that to me. Granted, they were European so they may not be keeping up with the news, but it was still shocking to hear that from a furry of all people.

    In my case, the most recent fuckwit told me to never move to Europe because I wasn’t wanted there.

    (Do you want a furry trans-girl pet? I’ll be your pet if you move me out too c:)

    (I’m joking. Unless…)





  • Hey, your comment is deleted, though from the replies it suggests you were trying to “transvestigate” a transphobe. I would like to help explain why that’s a bad idea. That can still cause collateral to actual trans people because it can make us very self-conscious and focus on our own perceived flaws, even if they’re things that no one except us would notice. That’s why it’s a bad idea to try and use it against transphobes; you risk causing dysphoria in trans people simply by listing off the “signs” of a person being trans.







  • Who’s “we”?

    Who’s “we” motherfucker?

    You best understand that I’m not part of your fucking “we”. I did not do this to myself, nor did I do this to any of my friends. We did what we knew how. We most certainly did not do this to ourselves, and personally I’m not going to just shrug and sigh and lay down and take it.

    America’s chosen government doesn’t see me or many of my friends as human because we’re trans and you’re saying “we” must reap what “we” have sown, as if we are somehow responsible for our own persecution. That’s victim blaming. That’s what spineless people say when they have no real skin in the game. That’s what people say when they’re too scared to speak up. That’s coward shit.

    Well, I refuse to take responsibility for this trash. I refuse to take responsibility for the abuse I and my friends will likely be subjected to in the coming years. Nor do I have the option to just lay down and take it.

    Fuck your “we”.
