Now that we’re approaching November, I really need to focus on asking for help again. I’m so grateful to everyone who helped me cover October expenses! November healthcare is still in the air right now, though (and the unknown will never not be scary, to be honest).

Bodily autonomy for everyone. I don't — and won't — begrudge cis women using HRT, testosterone or estrogen, for any reason. I'll find it hypocritical when some oppose HRT for trans people but use it for themselves, but that doesn't affect my belief that everyone should have access to HRT.
1. i hate the new york times

2. this is extremely based btw. more women should take testosterone if they want it. testosterone and estrogen supplementation for women in menopause is extremely useful for giving them energy and libido back. suffering is not virtuous nor necessary! menopause SUCKS!!!!

I am begging the mainstream media to talk less about the East Wing & more about the loss of SNAP funding for the next few days.

The East Wing is gone. We can’t change that.

We *can* help people prepare for the loss of SNAP.

We can urge folks to donate to food banks.

We can give them warning.

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

Quick reminder: It’s expensive to be disabled.

Premade & prepackaged food is always more expensive, but disability can make it impossible to cook regularly/meal prep properly.

Co-pays and medication costs add up very quickly.

Items to make your living space accessible can get pricey.

And so on.

Heya yall! You want to help a Trans Man get out of a Deep red state and want a little art for your trouble? Well wonder no more! I've opened art commissions again at the old prices one more time in order to help save up for my move!

fully know order of taping and such, and they absolutely push things for the drama. But the amount of gagging I did at this dude. (And the person he’s probably going to propose to.) Absolutely wiiiild. (I genuinely do enjoy seeing non-religious couples on this show though!) /3
saying “I love you” woman (another “kids being queer is a fad” religious person), after telling one guy that he broke it off with his “#1”. The speed at which people go from “I’m so heartbroken and omg this person was my #1” to “I only love this person now”. Granted, it’s reality tv so I don’t /2
Fully admitting I watch the trash that is Love is Blind ‘cuz it lets me drain my brain. Currently in S9, and one dude is SUPER religious (in the unfortunate “kids shouldn’t be thinking about being queer” way) and he literally broke it off with someone for not wanting to believe in God. And now is/1

Scolding me for donating menstrual supplies to my local mutual aid instead of money when they literally write on their website that they are always desperately in need of menstrual supplies... is the most fucking bluesky thing on the planet.

E g. The food bank here in San Diego buys bulk quantities of rice for a fraction of supermarket costs and re-packages it themselves in consumer-sized packages for distribution. Your money there goes much, much further than an in-kind donation. (In kind donations and volunteering are still good tho!)
Hi just so I'm clear.

I wrote "donate to food banks" and do "food runs for mutual aid" because they are different things!

Food banks want your money! they can do more with your money than with stuff.

Mutual aid groups often want stuff! Mine has a food fridge!
Now is a really good time to donate to food banks, and do food runs for mutual aid groups. Also, do menstrual product runs.

I've just received news of a death in my family. Due to living 8000 miles away from them, it's going to be very hard to make it to the funeral, but I'm going to try. I am still doing the charity fundraisers I committed to, but any help I can get to be with my family is appreciated. Thanks everyone.

"Mutual aid" is NOT "charity," and it is by definition decentralized. "If it's established" is not a thing.

Food banks need money.

Mutual-aid programs need EVERYTHING, and those of us who participate in them [every frigging day] KNOW what's needed.

BUY HYGIENE PRODUCTS FOR US TO DISTRIBUTE, FFS.
Yes, and mutual aid covers a whole of host of needs and charity. If it's established, it almost always has direct connections with suppliers and vendors who they negotiate cheaper rates for the goods you would bring them -- food, clothing, healthcare, etc.

It's almost always better to give them $$$

Assaulting and kidnapping people under a pillar of gift cards in a big box store shopping aisle. Armed men decked out in camo with a backdrop of orange adverts, concrete, fluorescent lights. Typifying this era of American fascism.

Nothing that makes this possible can be allowed to stand.
For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

While this is good, I think this isn't nearly enough.

I would love to see this kind of energy applied to actions that will *actively* affect the people enacting harm, as the ones currently in power can and will just point, laugh and ignore things like this — or, worse, panic and tighten the noose.
Research shows that it takes around 3.5% of the population actively participating in actions to bring about transformative change. Keep going! #upupup

I found this really great guide on Tumblr about how to go about describing skin tone, so give it a read.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

In case people are wondering where this came from, it was announced at this year's TwitchCon. Scroll down in the blog post to see.

And to add to this... STOP GOING TO PROTEST WITHOUT HIDING YOUR IDENTITY. Wear masks, cover your tattoos, cover your hair (especially if you have dyed hair), cover all things that can identify you, and turn your phones off (or put them in airplane mode at the bare minimum).
Reposted by Cryptid 🔞 (he/they)
Y'all... please stop sharing pictures and videos of people with their full, uncovered faces at protests. Like that's the type of shit that actually puts people in danger. People have legitimately been kidnapped and killed for being at anti-fascist protests. Stop doing this.

AI data centers are environmentally disasterous and directly harm marginalized populations. If you’re on Twitch vote against this…

Also, Fuck ChatGPT and everyone who uses it without caring about the repercussions.
