gofund.me/ae1ff8a65 We’re making great progress but still have a ways to go. About 2k left to raise before June 20th. That money will allow me to advocate for my child’s best interest in a way I wasn’t able to before this support started to roll in. Thank you all for being so kind and caring! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

People bitch about muffin top as if it isn't the most delicious part of the fuckin muffin.

Celebrate pride by sending money to trans people in need. We’re one of the poorest demographics facing some of the highest employment discrimination and public life is increasingly being placed out of reach for many of us.

How dare you post a pride flag after the vote you took.

Growing up seeing the way people treated my mom. Everyone thought she was just an immature dumbass. It was embarrassing as a child. But now I’m proud of how much I’m actually like her.

ADHD people are disliked in part because we’re seen as childish. It’s annoying to boring people. Then they see we’re much smarter than we appear, and have incredible intuition. And they hate us even more.

Death before Detransition does NOT mean we’re gonna sacrifice ourselves for the comfort of liberals who think we’re not worth protecting. It means we will fight anyone who opposes us before we give up on ourselves. Happy Pride. We are going to fucking win.

It took me a while to realise that when American friends spoke of the need for more walkable cities in certain parts of the US, they often didn't mean more and better footpaths so much as "You literally cannot move around on foot here. Please fix that."

Glad I took my own advice. That was better than I could have dreamed it would be. ☺️

Do the IRL things with your community. If you can’t find any, plan one.

For no particular reason, I’ve recently been thinking of a production of “Incident at Vichy” I saw ages ago.

Nailed my impromptu 80’s look enough that my mom just walked in and said “it’s like I’m seeing myself”.

The next deadline is later this month. Thanks to all who have already given! Please share this around and, if you can, give. gofund.me/8b1700907

Reminder to the parents out there: the prince in “the princess and the pea” is a villain and he, along with the queen, who comes up with the pea under the mattress test, are imposing an arbitrary normative “real princess” standard that few, if any, can achieve.

I love being surrounded by truly curious creative people. The world is just more interesting when you look at its details and play with how everything works.

Honestly, it’s kinda amusing at this point to realize just how little certain people think of me. It’s become blindingly obvious how disjointed from reality thier view of me is. It brings me to the point of *almost* pitying them.

Yet another beautiful series of reminders of how beautiful trans and queer community is. ☺️

Oof, embarrassing to be that confidently incompetent.

New rule for myself, at least two positive for every negative post. That way my online presence represents more closely how overwhelmingly positive my day-to-day irl interactions are. The world may suck generally, but my corner of it is so beautiful I want to share that more.

Trans friends, I want us all to stop deciding for our friends that they don’t want to help us. Ask them. Trust they know their own bandwidth and can set their own boundaries. Ask when you need help. Not when you’ve let yourself fully break. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Holy shit! How do I have so many kind people in my life now? Every single person I now have in my life is a precious gem of a human that I can’t help but marvel at.

There are people who will tell you that you hurt them with when or how you cracked your egg, came out, started HRT, or did any number of other steps in your journey. In my experience, those are never happy with any version of the real you. They prefer a broken, barely existent shell instead.

I was thinking about what I want to read and it’s a lit story about a trans mother and a cis 20 something daughter from the daughter’s pov and the mom transitioned when the daughter was 5. Basically just fiction about my daughter in fifteen to twenty years.

this is a rubicon. i will never, ever vote for a politician who votes or intends to vote to out trans children to their parents. it is a child murder policy. there is no compromise position on child murder. the only acceptable amount of child murder is 0.

oh really? but the parent murdering their child does resolve it? your choices are "protect abused children's privacy" or "get large numbers of them killed." how many child murders and suicides per annum does gluesenkamp perez think is an acceptable sacrifice for "unified school and home life?"

Yet another reason having “LGBTQI+ affirming” in your bio, LinkedIn, or website doesn’t mean shit without action. Too many of that crowd are not just turning a blind eye but participating in the steamrolling of our rights.

Jen did great work actually reaching out to these reps to ask them why the fuck they’re selling us out, so my anger is absolutely not at her. But holy shit what the fuck is the point of an equality caucus? At least the republicans have enough of a spine to tell me to my face they want to kill us

It is such a change of pace to not have to explain my existence to a professional.

I have an attorney! Thank you to everyone who donated or shared the fundraiser! What we raised was enough to cover the down payment on the retainer and I have 30 days to raise another 3k for the remainder.

Its funny to see a certain kind of man clock me and stare like I’m some sort of “failed man” when the truth is that I ticked off about every “manly” achievement before I cracked my egg. Arguably I’m more a man than they’ll ever be, and I’m very much not a man. 💅

Goddesses! I love my community. (I’ll be more specific when it’s safe to be so)

There is still time!

Really got a clear lesson this last week in just how little we can rely on the system and how life saving friends and community are when the system is used to target us. I truly have seen the best and the worst of humanity. Thank you to my helpers! Yall are beautiful and kind and deserve the world.

Cis people would rather concoct conspiracy theories to call trans women stupid than face the truth and enormity of what's happening to our community.

Women being punished for standing up to men? Why, I've never heard of such a thing. Must be some kinda transgender delusion.

The reason we cannot accept a "compromise" on sports is that, in doing so, we are accepting that our womanhood is conditional We are accepting that our womanhood is subject to restriction by others We are accepting that our womanhood is not equally valid to that of cis women

There is no room for compromise on basic human rights It won't work anyway Appeasing hatred does nothing but encourage it

if there's a beautiful woman you know, and she expresses a desire for some surgery (like a ba, or ffs, or that rib thing or the clavicle stuff) you don't say "oh but you're beautiful now" you ask "how can I help make your recovery comfortable? what can i do to support you?"

i would like to vehemently reiterate that i do not “identify as” a woman. i do not “identify as” transgender. i am a woman. i am transgender.

Hey, me again. Gotta feed the content machine my trauma and suffering again. Help a girl out and pass it along if you’re able, then go hug your friends. Kiss them. Have a good fucking time. We only get through this together, not online. I love you all!

"Male socialization" is literally a TERF belief. Like it's actually straight up a thing TERFs incorporate into their discussions of trans women. It's on the Wikipedia page for terfism in the section outlining their views. You all know that, right?

Hot take: “Male socialization” is often just used as an excuse to say that trans women aren’t “normal” women. “Male socialization” is why I wasn’t allowed to have long hair, wear pink, or paint my nails growing up. Now apply what it means for a trans women, and sit with that

I see a similar trend in Maryland. It’s to the point that I drove past a Texas plated car that looked like it was packed for a move and I was genuinely surprised to see a cis presenting person in it. About every other week I meet a new person moving from another state. MD isn’t 100% safe though.

gwen does fantastic work as usual on some of the 401,000 trans people who’ve had to flee hostile territory in their own country in the past 18 months.

I cracked my egg and needed to come out immediately because the closet was killing me. My whole social support network at the time disintegrate because they couldn’t understand why I couldn’t wait to come out to “ease things” for their comfort. I was dying.

They’re still making a record of it. Damn.

We’ve raised almost 2k already. I can’t thank yall enough! There is still a lot of row to hoe though. I don’t need more money from you per se, I want you to keep your financial stability in these trying times. What I ask is that you get this in front of fresh eyes. Ask them to spread it too. Thanks!

i want to die of old age

If you can, please join me in helping my friend Heather afford the legal costs to fight a horrendously unjust custody decision. She is a close personal friend and an absolutely phenomenal mother, fighting exactly the type of bullshit you think it is. gofund.me/e7e4ef97f

gofund.me/e7e4ef97f Please share wherever you can. I'm looking to get this in front of as many eyes as possible. It's a big goal b/c that's how much I expect this is going to cost in the end.
