If you know me, you know I’m the “misandry isn’t real” and offline closeted trans woman whoms’t doesn’t know if I’ll ever return to transition, unless by some miracle I fall into a supportive circle again. A supportive circle that doesn’t dissolve or abuse and then mulch me for having...

All over the socials I frequently see (and I gather that part of this is due to algorithms from the corpo socials) people pining for either the early 2000s, or even the 90s. Some of this is targeted at me, because the algorithm knows I’m a 90s child. Other times...

Gacha games have been blowing up lately, and if you’re even a little into anime-style action, story, or collecting cool characters, they’re worth checking out.
