In Paper Clad

dysphoria is a very common hallmark of transness, sure, but gender euphoria is an almost completely universal and therefore much more reliable signifier and frankly i think we should say ‘if the idea of being a different gender than the one you were born assigned as makes you feel happy/better about yourself you’re trans’ instead of telling people ‘the way you know you’re trans is if your body feels like a prison and your genitals make you hate yourself’

Quoting Justin's dad is a nice touch. Well played, Jagmeet.

To expand a little bit for anyone whose not Canadian or familiar with Canadian political history on the extra layer of "oh snap" to the reply that might not be obvious.

"Just watch me" was famously said by Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, Justin Trudeau's father, during the October Crisis and became a bit of a, I don't want to say meme because that has more amusement based connotations but basically a non joking meme, in Canadian politics afterwards.

Justin Tredeau has very much played into and used his father's reputation and public image to his advantage throughout his career, so Jagmeet Singh replying to Tredeau's remarks this way specifically isn't just him making a snappy one liner its also him calling that out/challenging Trudeau's image as the perfect version of his father.

It also can’t be understated what a big deal Pierre Trudeau is here. Depending on your perspective, he was either the worst thing to happen to Canada or a goddamn rockstar. He was largely responsible for decriminalizing homosexuality and abortion, he fully detached Canada’s constitution from the UK and wrote its Charter of Rights, he hung out with Fidel Castro in the middle of the Cold War, and there’s a famous picture of him making fun of the queen by spinning around behind her back. He dropped that famous “just watch me” in response to a question about how “far he was willing to go” to protect members of parliament during the FLQ crisis. He wasn’t perfect, but he definitely did not give a damn about anyone’s opinions.

Singh isn’t just telling Justin Trudeau that he’s not living up to his father. Singh’s positioning himself as a better successor to Pierre Trudeau because he’s more willing to make bold decisions — so it’s also an indirect way of calling Justin a waffling coward.

“Love your enemies! For they are tasty! Prey on those who persecute you! In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. For he gives his waters to both the evil and the good, and he sends storms on the just and the unjust alike.”

Y’all, I can’t reblog this fast enough

Fucking THANK YOU.

Never Forget the Reign of Terror waged against Muslims (and by extension, Sikhs profiled as being Muslim) in the nearly two decades following 9/11.

Reblogging this because my entire life, all of my bows have looked like my shoelaces. Wrapping presents is going to be so much more aesthetically pleasing now

Watch: Complaining about political correctness says more about you than it does others.

This says, so succinctly, what I’ve always tried to say about political correctness and how it is not a new thing, nor is it a bad thing.

A warrrior with abundant osteoptimism and one more skeleptical re: bone toughness.

Op I want you to know that “I don’t drink enough milk to be that confident in my bones” is now something I will say at every opportunity

You can’t deserve a person’s love. You’ll drive yourself crazy thinking like that. They either love you, or they don’t. That doesn’t mean you weren’t good enough for them to love you, because love isn’t something you earn by being good enough. It isn’t something that can be quantified or doled out. Don’t blame yourself for not being loved how you need to, just teach yourself how to look for love where love lives.

This isn’t just about romantic love, or even skewed towards romantic love, although it does apply there too. One of the hardest things I’ve ever had to accept is that my mother simply wasn’t someone who was capable of loving me, and there is no version of me that I could have ever been that would have earned that love. But with acceptance came healing. I was able to love myself more instead of resenting myself for not being more than any one person could be.

Are you listening? Even love for yourself isn’t earned. It is a kindness you give yourself.
