I don’t get these comics made by cis people depicting trans individuals as loud and extremely rude when it comes to correcting people on their pronouns? Every single trans person i knew (and i mean every. single. one) was either too scared for their own safety to correct someone, or would kindly correct their mistake and try to almost curl in on themselves so as to not cause a fight. 

If anything, the cis people who are being corrected are the ones who react so violently. It’s kind of ironic, but i guess cis people want to come off as being innocent people being harassed by the Evil Trans Cult.

Today I found out that the name Alexandra is found in Linear B, and it’s kind of blowing my mind because that means that name has been in use for at least 4500 years

The name actually appears earliest in its feminine form, Alexandra, as a-re-ka-sa-da-ra before we ever see the masculine variant Alexander! 

It’s also thought that it may have meant “defender FROM men” in addition to “defender of men”. This comes to be used as an alternate name for Kassandra, who may have been worshipped as a protector of unmarried girls and young women from the unwanted attentions of men!
