Courtney (she/her/they)

Hello lovelies, I am a (trans)Woman who is still in the process of discovering herself!

I have been working up the courage to be who I am for so long, I am excited to be figuring things out.

Pre-HRT, pre-fashion-sense, and pre-confidence.

Any and all tips and advice from more experienced women are welcome!

  • If I remember correctly, Marvel/Disney started doing this with the MCU (along with not telling some cast like tom Holland spoilers because they suck at keeping quiet), according to some of those “behind the scenes” type youtube channels (heavy spoilers, MasterTainment, Nerdstalgic, etc)

    I’ve heard Peter Jackson did this with the hobbit and George Lucas with star wars, but I don’t know how accurate those are, as I can’t even recall where I heard them. So massive tub of salt and all that…

    I’ve actually done this myself, when telling a story I’ve changed the names of some people involved, and when I inevitably heard back from someone who shouldn’t have known, I know who told them based on what name are dropped. It helped cut someone shitty out of my life but I don’t like essentially lying to and testing my friends…





  • I really think avatar should have done a little more to show life for non benders.

    We get a little bit here and there, but never really see “normal people who have to be on their toes around benders” kind of life outside of the single western lone-wanderer episode where Zuko left Iroh and was helped by an earth kingdom family, who then all turn on him when they find out he’s a fire bender for sure, claiming to be prince of the fire nation.

    Damn that is a good episode…

    But Imagine being a normal person going about your life when BAM half your house is gone because a teenager still wrangling with his abilities accidentally shot a boulder (not THE Boulder) through your front wall. Are the cops gonna do anything about it? Or are they gonna shrug and tell you they don’t have any benders on their payroll so nobody wants to risk getting sunk through the floor.






  • My mother was actually thinking about selling my grandparents house to them.

    I’m not sure if I changed her mind, but I straight up told her the second she mentioned them that I would burn the house down before the sale went through and would be chilling in a cell with a smile on my face for it.

    She decided not to sell to a company.

    Does that make me unhinged? Maybe. But that’s one less house going to a rental company and one more family getting a house they’ll live in.




  • I didn’t know who zendaya was until Dune. I heard the name, never saw the face until dune. Apparently she was a super big name by then? Idk I’ve heard she’s in a lot of things but most of them I’ve never heard of or never cared to watch.

    It really just depends on how they’re famous and what media people consume.

    I’m absolutely positive there are dozens of artists of one type or another that I have never heard of that would make people do a double take and ask me what rock I’ve been living under.

    Sometimes I feel like that Daniel Thrasher sketch where hoodie guy doesn’t know who Lil’ Pregnant is.
