This started during an incredibly stressful time, my very first firsthand, in person experience of bigotry and supremacy to such a degree. One for the baby book that I don’t know if my parents kept. I was in a really bad state, I think I was in a perpetual anxiety attack for two weeks, and no one could do anything to help me. I think I told about 5 staff members who said “That sucks, but I have no idea what to say”. I needed to get it out, so I started this blog.
It became a place for me to shout about bigotry. I try to keep a less personal tone on Chroanagram, although as time goes on the two are converging to the point that I don’t know what to post where a few times, so things I don’t feel are approriate there go here. I think good things have come from that. I ended up prompted to write my Trans 101 for Trans People after conversations with the Untoward Lady and Asher about how trans 101 always panders to cis people to the detriment of trans people, and I’ve gotten a lot of people thanking me for it and it’s been spread on tumblr and read at a friend’s university event.
And occasionally it goes back to the situation, because even though I’ve cut my losses with that place, it still effects me.
