Netflix is dropping #SheRa . A fantastic animated series that had great #LGBTQ+ representation and stories arcs.
Because of biggoted networks it got no love.almost no merchandising, and no real drive to bring it out DVD.
So pirate it!
Otherwise it's unlikely it will see daylight again

Life on tiktok:
Me:"Transitioning with estrogen means that yes we have to do lump check to monitor for breast cancer or breast cancer like all women with breasts should".

glad to see this "study" is being debunked, but I want to point out the double bind at work behind the scenes here: for years, anti-trans activists pointed to any increases as signs of "social contagion" (read: these kids aren't "really trans"). but then, if or when the numbers ever go down...

Almost 3 months into my HRt ❤️
Skin is getting softer, and I have breast growth(and painful buds!).
I can't believe the number of times I bump them into things😭
Am moisturising a LOT more!
Not encountered any #terfs or arseholes out in the wild yet, which is nice.

Big reminder to all my trans bros and sisters.
Look after yourselves.
We're in a marathon not a sprint, I want you all to be there at the end. Don't let the #terfs and #fascists grind you down.
If you need to vent, I'm happy to listen. #transrightsarehumanrights #trans
