Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism

Walking around the campus reading theory in my elaborate outfits to advertise the fact that not all MLs are cis men with no style.

I just found a playlist, but it had all the new wave classics. Duran Duran, Eurythmics, the B-52s, et al.

It was just a playlist I found, but it had The Go-Go’s, Duran Duran, and the Eurythmics, among others!

I think it looks punk, and it goes with my punk/alt look so that’s a bonus. This is the one I bought, with the filters on it even looks trans-colored. They don’t sell directly from their website but they do link to distributors. The Flo mask I got from my friend who didn’t need his anymore, but this is their website.

I personally use reusable elastomerics, I swap off between the Flo Mask and the MSA Advantage 900. The Flo mask is more comfortable but the MSA Advantage 900 provides better filtration. YMMV, but I do generally recommend reusable elastomerics because they’re more cost-effective in the long run. That being said, they are definitely an upfront investment.

Jamming to some new wave rn, my makeup inspired me.

With masks, I highly recommend N95s with headstraps instead of earloops. Not only are they more comfortable, they also provide a better seal.

I’ve dealt with this with rideshares too. Also the fact that I am East Asian I think adds this extra level of weirdness to it (these men are always so intent on knowing “where I’m from” and just to spite them I always tell them my home state, even if normally I never identify with being “Amerikkkan”.) Then I proceed to be silent the whole drive, lol.

I look so fucking good today. I’m really proud of my make-up — I tried a new-wave-ish style of dramatic eye makeup using red eyeshadow. I’m also wearing an outfit that I’ve had planned out in my head for the past week — it’s a frilly white shirt with bright red pants. First day of classes and I’m a bit nervous but also excited!

ATTENTION: This trans ADHDer is using a PLANNER and TO-DO LISTS and is TRYING TO GET ZIR LIFE IN ORDER.

Yes! Admittedly I was kind of holding off on reading it just because of this class specifically

The class is explicitly about the renaissance/re-emergence of trans fiction starting in 2014, and I am pretty sure that this means Nevada will be assigned.

You ever feel completely left out of the zeitgeist?

Not sure of the books yet, but the course description mentions Imogen Binnie, Torrey Peters, Akwaeke Emezi, and Camilla Sosa Villada! I have a sneaking suspicion that Nevada will probably be assigned…

I saw the authors mentioned in the course description and immediately thought of you. It name-dropped Torrey Peters, Imogen Binnie, Akwaeke Emezi, and Camilla Sosa Villada. The professor has written a lot about transness in fiction, and also her faculty photo was so goth. I think she is really cool, I’m so excited to be in her class.

I think I’m going to get into the trans lit class that I waitlisted I’m so excited

If (when) I post my trans ocs on the mega I’ll tag you!

i love drawing my ocs being cute and trans together
