so today was my first day back at camp and this years basically my first year where im like being a full on girl at camp and so like i was with my group today which is mostly kids whove known me for like 3 years at this point and one kid who knows me less well and like this kids 9 right so he asks me if im a boy or a girl like right off the bat cuz well, hes 9. I tell him im a girl and one of the other kids is like What!? no youre not. and im like i sure am. Another kid asks “then why were you a boy last year?” im like getting ready to figure out how the hell im gonna explain this to a kid in like 4 seconds. and then another kid asks “omg was you pretending to be a boy just an elaborate joke you and the other counselors were playing on us?!??” i just kinda stand there and im like………………………… yes. they all get cracked up because they think me pretending to be a boy was like, the funniest, most long term prank that has ever been committed to them and like i gotta say, i wholeheartedly agree that being amab is just a fucking joke.
another kid was like “but wait? you had a girlfriend last year?” as if she thinks shes just seen through me by asking that simple question and i just say “sometimes girls have girlfriends” and she just nods like i just said the wisest fucking thing anyone has ever fucking said
hot take: moms need to learn how to listen to and comfort their daughters without making everything about their own traumas
a classic example
daughter: hey this thing you do bothers me very much and i wish you wouldn’t do it
mom: well my parents abused me and im not even as bad as they were and i had to sit through it so you gotta sit through whatever i do to you too
a common variant
mom: well i’m having a really hard time right now and you know that i’m doing my best and that i didn’t mean to hurt you ergo you are in fact the asshole for asking me to consider your feelings and change my behavior during this hard hard time i’m having
least favorite
mom: fine. you’re right and i’m wrong and i’m a horrible person. there. are you happy now?

mom: you can’t be mad at me. you’re not allowed to be mad at me. i can’t stand it.
mom: great now Im the villain, not like you’re hurting me.
Mom: Iget that me complaining about every little detail of my life in front of you is bad for your mental health but I don’t have any other people to talk to about it and now you won’t even listen to me
He paid people to hold a sign that said antisemitic shit without them knowing what it really meant and that he has said some absolutely awful shit himself and yall still doing this huh
okay but imagine seeing Three Whole Girl Toys and suddenly your Dumbass Incel switch is flipped and activates your “sjw alex jones propaganda conspiracy cuck” protocols
Transgender transformers are already here, where have you been, numbnuts?
GIVE US ADORABLE TRANSFORMERS IN HIJABS!
The funniest part is that the three Transformers they are losing their shit over are Elita One, Moonracer and Firestar
WHO DEBUTED IN THE ORIGINAL 80′s CARTOON OVER THREE DECADES AGO
Fake Geek Boys getting all offended and pissy and acting like this is SUCH A BETRAYAL of the Transformers universe…when the characters these toys are of were literally in the second season of the cartoon show that ALL FUTURE TRANSFORMERS MEDIA CAME FROM. Elita One and co have been around almost as long as Optimus Prime and Megatron but these buffoons want to act like it’s some Shocking New Thing
Fake geek boys
Even if they were brand new characters, the fandom has spent 30 years fawning over the one major female transformer in every other incarnation AND asking why the hell there aren’t more of them. I’m not even interested in transformers and I know this.
