do you think someone who posts this much could be happy about their life? no. the answer is they couldnt

Said it before & I'll say it again: If the sort of people who've never even met a trans person, but have strong views about where we should be permitted to be (most anti-trans public), actually got to see the lives we live, they'd be extremely disappointed at how normal we are. ~sent from my sofa

Trans people should be allowed to ****** phobes with no societal repercussions

the entire debate cis people have about trans people is moronic to start but it’s also a debate most trans people don’t care about, being that if we are viewed as “real women or men” or not. no one gives a fuck. it changes nothing about the reality that transitioning rocks

So I need to pay $1,000 in the next 4 days for postoperative care that they didn't tell me had an associated fee or they're going to cancel on me

Ive paid the copy and overdrafted, so if anyone could just help me out with the $60 vet bill I shouldn't be too far behind. #mutualaidrequest #transmutualaid

These guys are basically going "oh what because I do and support evil things, im evil now?"

I would like to make enough money to live

115 Democrats just voted to codify the first federal trans segregation law.

When is it time to clean house on these monsters

Struggling with some bills right now. If anyone could help or just RT, it'd be appreciated. I have a $60 vet bill and a $35 copay coming up this week. Venmo is Lvd95/Cashapp is $LvDough. Followers just RT. #mutualaidrequest #transmutualaid

Southern illinois ppl are doing a lot more drugs and having a lot more sex per capita than like anywhere else in the country

So like meth is real big now huh

I'm tired of the pathetic little freakanomics logic they use to rationalize the construction and maintenance of a tiered labor system. They'll sing the praises of Cesar Chavez, but when the rubber hit the road, they'll always defend modern helotry.

It really is cool that our wages haven't kept pace with the basic cost of living, and that every day we get to paddle harder!

Straight cisgendered people came up with autogynephilia bc they couldn't imagine someone not allowing themselves to be consumed by self loathing after masturbating

getting older as a trans woman means realizing everyone younger than you has garbage taste and you can't say shit because you still want to get laid and be normal about it

Sheesh! Even Italy! Well as much as I hate both, I do see Meloni as a more rational figure than Starmer.

hrt will help you with the the heuristic sexism that others are doing when they read you. the beholder has learned that a male shaped body is threatening and emotionally unavailable because the men who behave that way happen to have such a body

“I’m affirming and saying to all of you that I am transgender, and so the best way to put this is that I’m not becoming a woman, I’m giving up pretending to be a man.” – Rev. Dr. Phillippa Phaneuf #TransJoy #TransRightsAreHumanRights www.advocate.com/news/phillip...

happy anniversary

Wait, you mean people CAN stand up to genitally-obsessed bigots?! 😱

You know in every workplace that features a trans person theres at least three people walking around fantasizing about getting you fired.

Theres a precise amount of spinach you can eat before it starts poisoning you. Theres also a minimal amount of spinach you can buy to get an ideal cost/calorie. If you buy too much spinach you will end up wasting it. If you cook spinach it turns into nothing but becomes less poisonous.

Becoming a "golden mahogany". Im aware of the stereotypes.

OK bad stuff happened to me as a kid so now getting me off is as involved and exhausting as setting up the board game Mousetrap

You know its fucked up what weve let tech sociopaths and billionaires do to this country, what weve let them do to the world. At no point has there been true atonement from any versions of our ruling class for spending a pinprick of human history wasting the world away.

My family has truly thrown me for a loop this time and it has destroyed my brain the entirety of thanksgiving break

Sick as fuck on Thanksgiving

One of human beings greatest flaws is that the front of our face requires insane amounts of fluid to function and so we evolved with these little pouches dug into our skull that hold that fluid but also get infected incredibly easy

The technology basically peaked. It's all incremental tinkering now. Like with digital cameras - the technical differences between the highest end products are only of interest to a tiny percentage of experts. Which might be part of the reason for "AI" being pushed in everything.

"Trans activist" - a whole lexicon just to deny calling us "people"

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.

I love having undetermined medical issues suddenly defined in terrifying ways

New medical debt just dropped. I love being a young person in america. Its so cool to be thirty years old and owe five thousand dollars for health care. Best system ever.

Donald trump admires mamdani because he has a beautiful wife. That's real important to Donald trump. If you have a pretty wife you can do communism to the largest city in the country, no problem.

The way you know Mamdani is a star is that Trump is a star fucker and this is literally how he acts every time he meets a celebrity.

I find it exhausting that the majority of the world is clearly on the path to post capitalist transition and people have an easier time envisioning the world ending with capitalism than ever coming up with something less cruel and wasteful

We’re currently undergoing a massive purge of every single minority in this country at multiple levels and 90% of the party can’t even say “this is bad”. Think about how that relates to this meme

In fact, fuck it. Building on what Jess says. Do you cis fuckers have any fucking ideas how much grief we carry? How every trans person has multiple dead friends? How death is just a thing we live with? How everywhere we gather has to have an explicit policy on expressing suicidal ideation?

The people who make Shein's clothes labor for ten to twelve hours per day (in violation of China's labor laws), some up to seven days a week, and earn as little as 15 to 30 cents per t-shirt.

While I don’t want to get too into the weeds of the discourse this morning, I think this text - from my draft trans pay paper - has some relevance to what we’re talking about this morning.
