We should be having awkward "hey, just making sure you know how to DIY" conversations with new trans people we meet the same way we used to have awkward "hey, do you know about safer sex?" conversations back in the day
Even if you don't DIY your hormones, you should know how.

I'm so sick of the way society keeps conspiring to make homeless people out of queer folks. It happened to me, it happened to a bunch of my friends on this webbed site. It's got to stop.
You cishet people, you talk a big game about being 'trans allies' and do fucking nothing about this.

I just got evicted and I don't have the resources to find a new place, am hoping some nice people will feel like helping a disabled trans woman (who still works, somewhat) out with an unexpected setback?
sorry i even have to ask :/

Growing up I thought this was normal
So getting a lot of questions about this, basically, Bergen County is one of the last counties in the United States that has a Sunday closing law which bans the sale of electronics, clothes, etc., but it does not apply to groceries, so Costco is open, but any non-groceries look like this:

The greatest crime committed against the transsexual people is not the violence against us, it is the way in which we are treated as inherently unserious people
This didn't stop the media from roundly mocking her. Here's New York Magazine, for example, in 2007 calling her "batshit insane" for making claims about Victoria's Secret CEO Les Wexner that we now know. She was too "insane" to be believed, but not insane enough to have her claims heard in court.

One of the tragedies of growing up is it's apparently no longer "socially acceptable" to carry around a cool rock & show it to people you meet.
So I have to respect the Chinese, Korean & Japanese for having a tradition of finding cool rocks & displaying them.
Let's talk about scholar's stones.

"banned from the concept of money" is a real & horrifying thing that is happening right now
laws that were created for groups like ISIS are being used on women that dare to put dildos up their ass on camera

Oh, I need to 'prove my sex at birth'? Good thing all trans people are famously known to have time machines and don't use them to go yell at their younger selves to transition earlier.
