a big part of being trans online is not relating to 90% of relatable trans posts & that's ok

i'm just gonna come right out and say it

i was never able to get into fallout new vegas and every time someone online talks about it as a Trans Experience® it gives me hives

I don't know what's up with the shark

I don’t know how to program despite writing a webcomic about hackers and at this point I simply refuse to learn

also most moe anime drives me up a fucking wall and I don’t really click with yuri unless the girls are banging, thinking about banging, or actively trying to murder each other

i have only a marginal interest in speedrunning, and even then only casually.

I never got the appeal of DnD. I hate almost all forms of fantasy that aren't heavily based on real life.

I can’t stand pickles. I don’t mind pickled jalapeños, but pickles (I.e. pickled cucumbers) are a flat no from me. Always picked them off of my burgers when taking out and eventually learned to special order at restaurants when they are typically included.

But yeah, I have some early childhood trauma from a snack share day in kindergarten and being forced as an autistic kid (who didn’t know she was autistic or a girl at the time) to try everyone’s favorite snack. It didn’t go well.

My salt cravings from the spiro when I was on it were sated by French fries, instead!

I remember seeing a fantastic Twitter thread a while back from a Black trans woman (I searched for it, couldn't find it, sorry) about how a lot of the things that get claimed as "queer culture" by white trans women tend to just be things that are part of a suburban white male upbringing that white trans women brought with them when they transitioned, rather than things that are actually emblematic of the queer community.

like the ikea plush one?

Charlotte Ariel Finn @ByCharlotteFinn4/19/2023, 2:06 PM

I think so? It's cute, but people act like it's mandatory trans women have one

Filbi Pott @Filbi4/19/2023, 2:47 PM

It became an in-joke because it has the same colors as the trans flag

Actually it was a greentext post (I think, or maybe a Reddit post) about a closeted trans woman living with her parents who was secretly on HRT. Her parents had a tendency to sweep her room (the real paranoid types) so she hid them in a Blaja plush, as that was the one place the parents wouldn't think to look.

The post got popular on social media, everyone started calling Blaja a trans ally, and it snowballed from there.

♿︎｜Asriel // Azi｜Θ∆｜🏳️‍⚧️@MisutaaAsriel4/19/2023, 6:13 PM

Addendum: I cannot find the post I'm referring to anymore, and i can't find any mention either with the closest being Newsweek saying the memes started "on Reddit".

However, in my personal experience, Blaja was a relative unknown right up until screenshots of said post were circulating Twitter, at which point it was like all the doors lighting up from laughter in Monster's Inc. in terms of proliferation. It was suddenly everywhere.

Current day, it's probably just the colors thing. It would appear this post is lost to time, and served moreso as a catalyst than a cause.

what a fantastic idea. where can a girl order a massive quantity of garbage tier french fries around here (or better quality fries that's cool too)

Kailaria @Kailaria7/18/2023, 11:03 AM

Portillo’s used to be a great place for fries, but they changed the oil that they fry them in under a decade ago, so they aren’t as good as they used to be.

If a smaller burger, cheesesteak, or bbq place has fresh-cut fries that include some that have the potato skin on it, I find those places’ fries to be really good, especially if they have a Cajun option. Steak-cut fries are also pretty good, but you’ll usually only find those at steakhouses or Red Robin, at which point it’s probably more cost efficient to make it yourself at home if all you want is the fries.

For fast food chains outside Portillos… they’re all pretty trashy, IMO. Arby’s curly fries might be the best ones out there of this type for flavor, but they also don’t feel that healthy. I guess McDonald’s is fine enough too..? Wendy’s at least tastes like potato, but they under-salt them, so you’d have to add more at home. However, I don’t really order from these budget fast food places frequently even when I’m pinching pennies since I can just make food at home for overall cheaper thanks to ordering in relative bulk, and I have potato and tortilla chips to satisfy any side cravings that I like better than most places’ fries.
