Alison Bechdel, The Essential Dykes to Watch Out For
The life The blog The Sam
GUYS the girl is flying back today! I’ll probs message her tomorrow but I’m so NERVOUS. What if she’s forgotten about me? Or what if now that the trip is over, THINGS START HAPPENING?? What if they don’t??
Also whenever I first see her is gonna be almost overwhelming because my brain kind of… puts people I don’t see for a while into the abstract. Her being here and real is going to hit me stronger than usual because all the ways she’s wonderful seem almost unreal anyway.
And holy shit my childhood-through-high school best friend got engaged
THIS ISNT ANY LESS WEIRD NOW THAT ITS NOT 1AM
I’m on break and just messaged her and like???
Okay so Seiya is not only a smol butch but a smol stocky/chubby butch, yes/yes?

YES.
Also she’s got The Arms. You know, The Arms that are thick and soft but then she flexes and holy shit what good arms
Okay so Seiya is not only a smol butch but a smol stocky/chubby butch, yes/yes?

ha, I had a lot to add about this and the cachet of the masculine as superior within afab lbpt commnites but that seems not to be the conversation we’re having here, so I AM SORRY YOU DIDN’T GET YOUR SHIRT SAM YOU LOOKED LOVELY.
Thank you Doc but also I’m always open to having that conversation

Ugh, that sounds awful. And at pride of all places! 😦
I fee like a baby but it was Pride where in theory I should feel valid more than in the world at large SO
I laugh about the fragile masculinity of cis men as much as the next person, but I really don’t have a leg to stand on because yesterday I nearly cried when, at a booth giving out free shirts, I asked for a men’s small and was given a pink women’s medium
man every time I spend time with this friend I feel so much more on the non binary side because they just GET so much and they’re basically the only irl friend who does, and my gender just feels more similar to theirs than any woman I know.
and like it’s still more relevant to me to identify as a woman but like damn does it feel like the difference is semantics than anything else
(it doesn’t help that since I don’t see them often they missed my switch back to using she pronouns and like, now it’s a weird thing where I don’t think they know how I identify but they know my identity better than most people who do)

Also I like reread your post like 5 times trying to comprehend why THE HELL Michiru suddenly decided to make fishing her next hobby because it’s so unlike Michiru maybe it was like Haruka’s fav activiy and Michiru was trying to bring them together AND OKAY IF SO WHAT DOES FISHERY HAVE TO DO WITH TYPES OF WOMEN
It’s an idiom! I used it without thinking, sorry. Fishing is trying to get specific information, usually indirectly (in this context, Michiru WANTS to know if Haruka might like her, but asks about what types of women she generally likes instead)
