thing 1. some guy who was jogging today while i was Exercise Walking™ (with sennheiser over-ear studio monitor headphones on that don't exactly scream "hey it's convenient to try to talk to me right now while i'm wearing these") after a. attempting and failing to get my attention once, b. turning around and jogging after me to catch up to me again and then incessantly gesture for me to remove my headphones only to ask me "hey you know where the beach is at?" (this is on the walking path onto the bay bridge from emeryville. i'm pretty damn sure there is no beach.) and me basically telling him that no i do not, and then putting my headphones back on and continuing to Walk Briskly™ onward, he acts as though he's jogging away again only to c. again turn back around and catch up with me and gesture for me to pay attention to him again for some reason, so i again pause and take my fucking headphones off (sorry for the repeated interruptions, lovely new booka shade album in my headphones that cleverly apes the album artwork from that one new radicals album but that's neither here nor there i guess) and THIS time the guy seemingly doesn't know what to say (though at this point it's beyond clear he's the sort of Awkward Weirdo Man™ who thinks i'm Hot™ and wants to do something about that. sigh.) and this 3rd time (2nd time he's actually gotten me to stop for him if we're keeping track) he just fuckin pulls out his phone and starts showing me a video of him jerking off his penis. all i could muster as the fastest response possible in order for me to return to my beloved Booka Shade™ Sennheisers® and Lenghty Saturday Walk Routine™ on this very public walking / biking path in broad daylight was to look at him as awkwardly as any man has ever been looked at in his fuckihng life and say "uh i'm into women, sorry, but appreciate it" (needless to say i did not actually appreciate it, i just wanted him to go get distracted by some other shiny object to apparently put his penis in and leave me alone without attempting god-knows-what-else).

thing 2. i just saw an advert for McDonald's™ (lol who eats there anymore) doing their Monopoly™® game promotion thing again (i actually used to go there and play that game ages ago before they decided to start charging $5,749.99 for a cheeseburger. i never won anything particularly great, though. i never even won some random guy's locked-loaded-and-always-ready penis jerking smartphone video when i played McDonald's™ Monpoly® Game. oh well.) but anyway the actual reason i'm mentioning this as thing 2 is because this fucking Regular Ass Supposed To Be Family Friendly I Guess Who Knows McDonald's Monpoly Game YouTube / TeleVision Advertisement Commercial is using the song GOT YOUR MONEY by OL' DIRTY BASTARD. to advertise that you can go to mcdonald's and play monpoly.

summary: in summary today and tonight have been a fucking day apparently. uh happy halloween i guess? i have no idea.

what the fuck is wrong with people.

I hope you carry some pepper spray or a tazer or a knife or pocket sand or whatever CA will permit the tax cattle to possess

i have no idea. TBF this happened in a pretty publicly traversed area, especially daytime on a weekend (probably why he was trying to be "covert" instead of just whipping his actual penis out only for some passer-by to immediately show up and also WTF at him like the very special person he clearly was) so i didn't exactly feel concerned for my safety but yeah. i do have pepper spray and a tazer but i am unfortunately fresh out of pocket sand.

being Me™ after all my weight loss - not trans, naturally / internally feminine, some sort of intersex male though i've never known what to label myself but i'm just naturally like this as opposed to trying to be something i'm not biologically - i'm aware that a. i look basically exactly like a woman from any angle that's not relatively front-facing, and b. i've tried to come to terms with (still haven't really cause i don't think in these terms and think "beauty standards" are largely just a fucking societal dysfunction / marketing scam) the fact that i'm apparently "hot / pretty / beautiful / whatever" by some degree of "norms" to the extent that on any day i tend to get some degree of compliments when out and about that i don't exactly know what to do with but just tell people thank you for, and i've had actual female model friends basically sit me down and have a heart-to-heart with me over this too since i guess having a feminine form (FFS i don't have boobs but apparently that's an aside for some people) and being 6'1" / size medium-ish means a certain amount of people suddenly view me in a way that i don't, and i certainly confuse a fair amount of men, at best, or garner shit like this from the ones who apparently don't care what they're fucking.

some days, especially given this current die-hard-and-still-ongoing zeitgeist in the ensuing aftermath of the whole stupid "trans movement" PsyOp that i am absolutely not a part of nor did i ask for, i just tend to feel like a human rorschach test for a lot of people. for better and / or worse.

i guess it just is what it is these days but fucking yeesh, to say the least. TBF i also mostly only get responses that are this level of unhinged / unrestrainted / coming-out-sideways OUTSIDE of san francisco. which this was. the east bay has a lot more internalized stupid going on as does the south bay. SF if i get compliments they are most always just genuine and normal and i'm otherwise not treated like some "special being" over there. over here, though... i mean weeks ago in emeryville some other guy with his friends started getting down on a curb and humping it while cat-calling me while i was waiting for the bus.

so uh yeah i'll look forward to whenever the hell i can get fucking normal income so i can move back to SF to say the least. east bay taxes are way more regressive too and the government is a lot shittier over here. funny how that always seems to be the case in the areas where people are the most otherwise dysfuncitonal and idpol obsessed. 😒 i mean it's not as bad as, like, LA or seattle and not even close, but it's definitely markedly "different" over here in ways that compell me to wear my headphones a lot more when i'm out and about.
