well… i just sorted through the aviansite tweets of a local follow, a trans woman, who, whilst definitely in the throes of their own ptsd, spent part of their morning openly shettalking about local trans folk by name (not even their handle or nom de plume). i know where they're at in some ways. it's not unlike where my headspace was in ’04. mindful of this, i held back from saying anything to them cos i know there's literally nothing i can say to improve or ameliorate the situation w/o infuriating them & getting their block (and thus the last way i'd ever be able to communicate w/ them). i'm disinterested in torching bridges, however fragile they may be

i recognize their contempt as being with themselves, internalized, and with being spoon-fed abusive crap from a shitty mum whilst growing up, surviving that by the skin of their teeth. but it doesn't make it any easier to hear them low-key lash out at others
