I am a grateful grapefruit
When pet owners talk about their pets it’s guaranteed to fall under one of two categories:
- Rover is the sweetest kindest force in my life, my closest ally, my best friend, the family member who molded me as a person who I would absolutely lay down my life for. Please let me show you photos of this perfection incarnate.
- Socks is on double secret baby probation now and she’s gated in the living room because she wont stop sneaking out and trying to eat all the towels in the house, like the bastard idiot child she is.
I would like to clarify this is not a “which type of pet owner are you” post. There is no choosing. Pet owners are both of these, all the time, forever. It’s a matter of which one is the conversation topic of the day, and the outcome depends entirely upon how recently their pet tried to eat plastic
“I want cis people to see themselves in me. I want them to see myself in me in ways that I’ve been forced to see myself in cis people for so long. I think that’ll be really, really important in drawing similarities in ways that’ll help deconstruct bias. I want to demonstrate anger. I want to demonstrate passion. I want to demonstrate defense and not always being a victim, because trans people are constantly, constantly victimized in our narratives all the time, but we never get to see ourselves as heroes. We never get to see ourselves as protectors. We never get to see ourselves as fighting back. We always see ourselves being oppressed. That’s not my reality.” - Indya Moore featured in Teen Vogue’s Young Hollywood 2019 issue
