    Listen, you gotta quit the doomscrolling and focus on your local community once you get an understanding of the news for the day/week. I thought the same way as you until I did that, constantly downing hate-click news stories does exactly what they aim to do: get your ad revenue and make you feel hopeless.

    Most people dont give a fuck that trans people exist, and will step up to bat if someone they know is being discriminated against. I live in bumfuck nowhere-ville in the USA, and I know most of the folks in town would be upset if something happened to my gf and I because of our identities, were all people at the end of the day. Knowing your neighbors and being respectful goes a very long way, especially in the isolated world we live in these days.

    Those in power think they can "solve the trans ““issue””. just like they tried to solve the black “issue” or the gay “issue”, and we know how that went.

    We will persist, we have existed since the idea of gender was constructed. Its a safer time than ever in modern human history to be trans, and the people who dont like that are using us being able to get the care we need to line their pockets and feed the war machine.

    We will prevail, even if things get worse before they get better.







  • doesn’t clarify the point youre trying to make, if vtubers make a living entertaining people then its a job. just because you dont like watching doesn’t make that any less true

    this is coming from someone that doesn’t actively go watch vtubers, if I like the person and what they’re streaming and they happen to have an animated avatar I have no issues though

    and yeah like music as stated below, its usually a side hussle because you need to be entertaining to make it in the entertainment industry. crazy how that works lol
