I've had a rough couple of days on social media.

I commented some comfort for a trans gal on tiktok recovering from top surgery, and she took the opportunity to blast what I'd said about my boobs all over her feed. I've been getting cis men asking for pics ever since. She's done nothing to moderate the comments.

I asked for help musing about writing yesterday, and on Bluesky I got torn asunder by some random trans people who basically made shit up about what I'd said, insulted me personally, and harassed me until I took it down.

I posted a reminder for folks that the carrier oil in injectable hormones goes bad, and that using it outside of the safety window can be dangerous. I'd missed that the carrier oils varied so much by happenstance--I've been on e cyp, just not the appropriate brand of e cyp to learn this--and someone took it on themselves to hound me even after I pulled the thread down as I put in a shitload of work to try and get information, both from her and through other venues, to verify what she was saying in between the insults.

And for clarity: don't fucking go looking for any of these people or I'll block your ass in an instant. Who they are is not relevant. They could've just been having bad days.

But this is by way of saying:

I'm taking a social media break. I don't know how long it's gonna last. I'm feeling real fucking sore right now.

And regardless of whether it's a bad day thing or it's legit maliciousness, members of this fucking community need to think twice about how they treat each other, because it's been ✨years✨ since a transphobe treated me as badly as I was treated by trans people this week.

And fucking Trump got inaugurated on Monday.

So like

Reflect on that.
