Just ranting honestly

I have other episodes planned, I announce them

I don't have anything scripted for this episode it's just

Completely off the handle.

I am sorry I haven't been making as many episodes, I've been

More than a bit preoccupied, so keep that in mind

If you want to cancel me-- it's okay--

I have plans anyway.

Trans 2020 recap

Becky is sick

Becky is full of it

Becky finally got his name changed

Becky had a health scare

Becky learned th’ software

Also I swear to god I met some real life TERF’s

Elliot Page is here!!!

JK Rowling is a professional TERF

Eddie Izzard is making her own rules

I can’t help but cheer

TERF head cannon of anxiety and fear

I can’t live there any more

not worth it

I can’t even visit

Christine and the Queens is becoming famous

MUNA isn’t…?

What’sherface is disappearing and unqueering herself

Literally all the popstars

*insert rant about queer pop here

All the things you said all the things you said running through my head

MOVING ON

Pandemic gone done shut the whole earth down

I rebooted, so has everyone else

Society is resilient, kinda like this mutating virus

Worst year ever did we really need to

Celebrate it? I mean come on folks I didn’t want to have

Any sort of new years edition

This episode is about plans for

2021 

Because we have to move on

Sorry I forgot about the playlists

I’ve been working a ton, I can’t listen to music when I work—

I don’t get anything done.

I have had various tough questions since starting my transition.

-Whats the difference between being non-binary and being trans?

-Is microdosing hormones a thing?

-Where are the de-transitioners, why did they stop, and what happened when they did?

Some of them have been "answered"

Most of them haven't. I had to answer most of my own questions, which is just how life goes. 

Predictably, people hate curiosity. Also, people love trends!

Microdosing everything is a trend nowadays. I go into briefly what I've been told about microdosing HRT from my endocrinologist, but mostly ya'll-- what is your plan? What's your goal? I would love to be able to control the effects of my hormones... but that's not really how they work?

I'm sure I'll lose a bunch of followers for being anti-microdosing. I've weighed this possibility, and come to terms with it. I don't think I could sleep at night advocating for something that I don't think is healthy.

Have you read this?

JK Rowling Writes About Her Reasons For Speaking Out on Sex and Gender Issues

Like, actually read it?

I'm being serious--

Did you read someone else's opinion on Twitter

Before you made your own...?

Really actually read all 12 pages

Then join me for this episode. 

She has become radicalized in the last few years, all because of twitter!

She quotes all of the biggest features of TERF ideology, and stirs fear over bathrooms.

She says things most all people consider to be transphobic. 

She is clearly being a provocateur, but why? Perhaps maybe because she has been harrassed nonstop for her limited understanding of sex and gender?

She has had to self-educate now, and is only listening to TERF's about gender politics. She is responsible for her beliefs and her decision to quote famous TERF writers and leaders. Trans people are also responsible for how they have reacted to her twitter over the years. She has become a target for abuse, and I don't want to be associated with that sort of "activism".

Perhaps saddest of all, is that JK Rowling refers to all of her online abuse as "trans activism". I do not advocate for such speech. 

SADDER THAN THAT is how many fans I have lost because I don't want to villainize her further than she has villainized herself! It is not enough for me to simply disagree with JK Rowling, I must degrade her--otherwise I'm not really a trans advocate!

What fucked up version of the twilight zone am I living in???

How am I living such a beautiful life surrounded by feminist trans people, but online--it's a different universe?

https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2020/03/12/gender-recognition-bill-scotland-public-consultation-transgender-rights-non-binary-ally/

here is the gender recognition bill in scotland that Rowling is so terrified of. I don't understand her fears, as the legislation is still strict--still imposes limitations on transition. None of her fears in her treatise are verifiable.

Hey Everybody! I love the L Word SOOOOO MUCH. The original series is so important to baby Becky. Generation Q is getting me really excited and I really hope they deliver more serious drama for many more seasons!!!

Where the hell is Max? More importantly, where the hell is Max's baby!?!?!

Why is Bette a cheater, and Tina isn't?!

Is Jenny really dead!?!? Was she murdered ? Was it suicide? 

I think Nikki did it TBH she was so weird

My thoughts on the theme song are in the episode...

My version of the theme song is in the episode...

LMFAO there is no theme song to Generation Q because they got burned so bad they stopped having a theme song entirely.

Life's not fair I guess. I also kinda don't think she is one. I think Maya whatsername is for sure but like--JK Rowling!?! The creator of my childhood? I can't with this, yo. I can't. I don't? I don't! Hmmm

I don't understand. Honestly the episode comes to zero conclusions. I bamble. I ramble. I bullshit and I stumble. I confuse myself often.

Becky breaks down Transtrenders and other myths and monsters. Spoiler alert--nobody is trendy. Except for like, the super trendy people I guess. There are so many stylish and trendy trans folk. But-- their gender isn't the trendy part.

God rest ye merry gentlethems

We talk some talk. Biphobia is the real deal! I go into some brief definitions and then some random anecdotes. Featuring some Miley Cyrus rants and an acknowledgment of Hemsworthiness. There might also be a lot of screaming. This topic is very sensitive, so I had to go full “why’d you say that” with it otherwise it would be boring.

I tried to stay away from the most basic cliches, but unfortunately most things of the best things in life are cliche.

Oy there is too much to reflect on so I had to just go ahead and talk about it.

It has been over a year since I started all this mess, and I am a bit blown away by how different things are. They are also weirdly exactly the same. It has been nuts.

The regular programming will resume once I’m able to do what I gotta do. There are lots of good things on the horizon. Thank you so much for everything.

Podcasting has been a weird journey, stick around and live it with me.

Heyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

We're going head first into TERF turf this week ya'll. We don't hold anything back, but we also aren't exactly going to burn down the smurf/terf village and ban them from society. Tune in to see my suggestions on what we should do with TERF's, why they're important, and what they symbolize for the gay community. 

This is a particularly ranty one 

Spoiler alert: I will offend most everyone with this episode. Except, of course, for rational people who don't hate others for sport. Not very friendly for those who get high off contempt and/or pity
