Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

In traditional Cherokee society, women were the heads of households, and Cherokee clans were matrilinealβ€”

y'all are engaging in the theater just as they want you to. She is not "ousted" or "fired." She has been given a new role. This is all strategic and not the gotcha you are being told to believe it is.

I dated a cis straight guy in my early 20's and we dealt a lot with this stress too. His friend group was especially cruel to him about it. Left me pretty scarred up about it all at the time, but he really struggled to find a place where he wouldn't be shoehorned as something he wasn't.

There was a bakery in Troy called Le Cheoux, and we would go once a week, sit and chat with her while trying whatever new thing she made, drinking vietnamese coffee and snacking on macarons.

Sent her a message on Instagram asking if she'd bake a cake for my fiancΓ©'s birthday the day before closing

She’d Never Changed Her Gender Marker. Kansas Invalidated Her License Anyway. β€” Assigned A trans Kansas resident recently changed her name but not her gender marker on her license, fearing what Kansas may do if she did. The Kansas DMV still flagged her ID.

This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker.

I also feel extra guilty for then stewing in the us vs. them against trans dudes, but there's a bitterness in these guys with the microphones that reads like resentment towards us for getting media attention (even if it's 90% bad).

I wanna love my brothers and listen more but the transmisogny ouch

I feel bad cause I had to think "which one?" But it doesn't matter either way.

I've seen a few trans journalists on here and back on Twitter who participate in mobbing other trans people and I expect so much better from them to have that empathy.

Followings build hella egos though πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
