As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

You know who I feel really bad for? Cis-but-strong-trans-ally stoners. Imagine hanging out getting stoned with your cool transfem friends and always being paranoid about letting a “dude” or “man” or “bro” slip out. Being stoned would just amplify the self-consciousness. And then what would happen if one of those words actually slips out? Can you imagine how embarrassing that would be?
Lies
Becoming a wee bit of a stoner again for the first time since high school really did help me process my thoughts on gender better which eventually led to me admitting to myself that I was trans. So maybe there is more in store for these “strong ally” stoners out there.
EDIT: That gives me an idea. What if Cheech & Chong, but TRANS??? Just think of the possibilities.
Its true, I know you’ve been going through it lately but we do, in fact, have allies.
There’s a lot of invisible normie allies. Though I guess their density varies place to place, and a goal of the reactionary movement is poison them as a well of support.
I have a bunch of cis women friends who treat me like another one of the girls in the group effortlessly. But they’re also ignorant of various trans issues.
When I bring up some facet of harassment or discrimination they’re all appropriately upset but also like “wow I never knew about that”
