Sicko Trans Kid
Sicko Trans Kid
many people are saying this
We need that as an emoji here, actually can someone pls add that?
Kelly: please please PLEASE become a leftist!
The one that got away…
This is awesome
As a side note from this, I really hate that american depiction of jesus. Every time I see it, it boils my brain.
Kenny Loggins lookin ass mofo
damn
They correctly fear trans exercise
Swings are good low impact exercise, so is swimming
I’m not kidding how do I help trans folks learn martial arts to defend themselves (in exchange for casseroles)?
Have you tried approaching a trans folk and telling them “hey I’ll teach you martial arts to defend yourself (in exchange for casseroles)”?
It seems a little bit short sighted in the sense that
-
Where am I going to find a bunch of trans people?
-
What do I do if they say yes? Where would I bring them? What would I teach them?
-
What if they ask “who the hell are you?” which is an entirely fair question.
And I already have a headache just putting it together after that. Fuck.
But you’re absolutely right, eventually I’m going to have to go say hi to someone somewhere
- Just walk around outdoors. Trans people are too anxious to drive and you can spot us on sight, so that’s a pretty good way to find us.
- Skate park, and martial arts like you promised.
- “I’m the one who’s gonna teach you martial arts.”
If they don’t respond well to this then they didn’t want to learn martial arts anyway.
I love the idea that someone goes “I’m going to go get some fresh air” and then all of a sudden: DON!!
I guess part of me was thinking about getting LGBT people to self-select as interested in BJJ or kickboxing. Wrestling with strangers is already a big ask of a random person who has everything going for them.

I have literally taught two trans people martial arts and one of them now does it professionally. You can just do things
What kind of casserole do you want, and what do you recommend for someone with severe dyspraxia? I do have a pair of sai around here somewhere. Nunchaku were a mistaaaaaaaake.
Buffalo cauliflower with something crispy on the outside and we’d be gucci mane.
My specialization is in combat sports so I don’t know much that has to do with weapons. In addition, all that I know about dyspraxia can be summarized in a google search, so please don’t take it as someone familiar with the symptoms.
But I would go for judo. A good judo school would have a lot to help you with. They’ll help you fall correctly immediately which is like a perma buff everywhere. The culture is about mutual benefit and welfare. You could expect women, children, and the elderly to be hanging around. I bet they’d have a curriculum they could adjust if you are infirm. There is a ruleset for the blind so they have considerations. There are competitions based around doing the moves correctly instead of fighting at full throttle so you decrease the risk of hurting yourself and others.
I almost said boxing, but I think they’d set you up right over there.
The key with nunchaku, flails, and the like is to not let your elbow bend enough that the business end can reach your head or trunk. As long as your arm is held out enough, you shouldn’t be able to injure yourself with a full-on hit. Power the swings by turning the whole body, keeping the arm out and relatively stiff.
(Naturally there are exceptions and nuances that are best explored with a teacher, I’m just giving a tutorial on how to safely experiment.)
“Be like water” is for rigid weapons like the sai; for flexible weapons like nunchaku it is advisable the body move as more of a solid unit.
Do you know trans people
While I don’t think the request you received for a content warning was actually meant seriously by the requestor, I’d like to extend my sincere thanks for taking it seriously (enough) nonetheless by both adding a CW and marking the post NSFW.
I almost asked if they were serious but then figured it was easier to just do it
They got upset that the last Kelly comic needed a CW under the CoC.
Thanks for doing it, following the requirements for images depicting triggering content, and placing the CW at the start of the title.
As someone who fears death, this needs a content warning.
