hello trans, enby, genderfluid and all other girlies! this is my annual post about gender affirming care as a cis woman.
I started doing this a few years ago — now I do it annually after my first dermaplaning (which was yesterday).
Here's my face this morning, post-skincare. A thread 🧵

Men who think sex is purely transactional for women, and that they don't enjoy it, are really telling on themselves. Women are some of the nastiest, horniest, freakiest humans alive.

We’re close to losing Sesame Street, a show that was started to provide free educational media to marginalized kids in our country.
That’s not an accident in my opinion and it’s just one more example of how Capitalism robs our society of the sweet and good things we build to care for one another.

HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio.
Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.

My doctor just started me on a new med and admitted to me that most insurances don't cover it, and without insurance it's $500 per bottle, so she then gave me a website to order from Canada if my insurance doesn't cover it (which, thankfully, it does for now)
It's not the docs.

When my health insurance stopped covering insanely expensive meds that literally kept me out of the hospital, my GI took every sample bottle she could find in the city (called other docs too) and filled up a Ralph's bag with it and dropped it off at my house.

Health insurance industry PR is working overtime right now diverting blame to physicians for claim denials and rising costs. I feel compelled to remind everybody that Optum (UHC) is the largest employer of physicians in the US. We have never had less power in healthcare than we do right now.

this quote on Al Jazeera sums up the celebration I saw in downtown Raleigh yesterday, too — so much to celebrate right now even if there's still a road ahead for rebuilding and figuring out the future
![a screenshot from Al Jazeera quoting a conversation between two men in Lebanon, the quote reads:
...a vendor shouted over: "Who will rule you now? The Americans? The Israelis?"
"I don't know, but it's been 13 years," Mahmoud shouted back. "Khakis [enough]!"
The three young men were beaming the morning after the end of the al-Assad dynasty's rule in Syria after 53 years."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:r66jpgflmxbdqklwr756fdbp/bafkreian75znn5y6ssffr4to4lfnu235l6racslddwr52xglhvejbew77m@jpeg)

this is why I call myself "Christian-adjacent" — I hold mystery and wonder and hope, and I know most Christians would not consider me as one of them, but I grew up in their tradition and my sense of hope was born from there. I detangled myself from their systems, but I still seek light.

When I had United Healthcare, I finally decided to see a vocal specialist (in network) to see if there was therapy for my Dysphonia and throat pain.
$500 a visit. I could not afford it and I was actually losing my voice forever.
I'm with Aetna now and it's a $30 copay every visit.

Fwiw United Healthcare sucks immensely. When my first kid was born, we made the mistake of double-insuring him through me and his dad, who had United. The result was both insurance companies claimed the other was primary AND PAID 0$ towards my kid’s first 2 years of healthcare.
