Being trans in this timeline is like being that character in a horror film that is begging, screaming, pleading with the rest of the characters to see that the villain is real and he's going to kill all of us but they all just laugh it off like i'm just being paranoid even though people are already disappearing

Not Your Bot

Ladies, if your man:

- can storm a castle
- is related to group
- can be found in war
- is required for advancing into battle
- is related to soldiers

He's not your man. He's an army.
